Mel Gibson In The Road Warrior
Posted on Sunday, April 25, 2010 in Entertainment
There's something to be said for action flicks, especially when they're as well crafted as The Road Warrior. This film was what really got Mel Gibson started on a global level. Mad Max saw him explode in the US, but since the film hadn't been released in the US yet, or throughout much of the rest of the world, it was The Road Warrior that made him a household name. It's definitely one of the must download movies of all time. There aren't many movies that work so well as action movies while being one of those films you might consider to be one of the greatest ever made. However, the film is just so incredibly strong on so many levels that you have to recognize how good it is as a film regardless of whether or not you're usually a big fan of action flicks. If you haven't seen it, and somehow have no idea what it's about: Mad Max Rockatansky is a former cop wandering a wasted outback in Australia. Food and water have become scarce after World War III, as has gasoline. Max is trying to find enough resources just to keep himself alive from day to day as he wanders across the wasteland. Throughout the previous film, Max lost touch with his humanity, becoming just as cruel and ruthless as the villains he pursued. This time, he needs to take a chance at redemption and at getting in touch with his humanity once more by getting involved once more with society, or what's left of it. The movie is really just one big chase scene, only stopping here and there just long enough to give the audience a moment to catch their breath. While a lesser movie might have been made boring by all this action, in The Road Warrior, the action and the story are one and the same. Character and plot are both developed through action, not like the modern action flick where the fights and chases only get in the way of the story. In the end the movie is really a statement on heroism, delving into Joseph Campbellian mythological structure and coming up with what many Australians consider to be "Star Wars Down Under". It's certainly one of the most successful films to ever come out of that country, and is still considered a national treasure of the Australian cinema all these decades later. The movie is, really, a classic western in a new setting. It belongs on the same shelf as Stagecoach as one of the all time great examples of how the classic John Ford and Howard Hawks westerns developed their own stories. The movie is loud, spectacular, full of crazy characters and stunts, and, perhaps, one of the ten greatest films ever made, depending on how you evaluate films on a personal level. At the very least, it is one of the most well crafted and well told action stories of all time, and certainly belongs on your download queue if you haven't seen it yet. His rage and disappointment at Frodos betrayal can only be assuaged by a total revenge.

Citizen Kane Has Been Labeled As The Greatest Movie Of All Time
Posted on Thursday, April 15, 2010 in Entertainment
Citizen Kane is a film that was released in 1941. Described as an American drama, it was directed by Orson Welles, who also starred in it. Even today, moguls in the movie industry consider 'CK' to be one the greatest films of all time. It is particularly acclaimed for its narrative technique, music, and its inventive cinematography. Before the film was made, Welles was receiving accolades after his performances with the Mercury Players. He caught the attention of Hollywood moguls through his highly controversial radio program, War of the Worlds, in 1938. The next year he was signed on contract with RKO Pictures. Although he was completely 'untried' as a film director, he was given a free hand to develop a story, pick the crew and cast, and even given 'final cut' privilege. After two disastrous first attempts, Welles and Herman Mankiewicz wrote the screenplay for CK. Citizen Kane was filmed in 1940, and released the following year. It dominated the Academy Awards by being nominated in as many as 9 categories. To the delight of Mankiewicz and Welles, it scooped the Best Writing (Original Screenplay) award. The movie is a roman a clef. This means that it describes real people and real life behind the disguise of fiction. CK scrutinizes the life of Charles Kane based on publishing magnate, William Randolph Hearst. It also studies the life of Welles himself. Kane began his career in the publishing business because of a passion for the industry. However, over time, the passion became an obsessive desire for power. CK is narrated with flashbacks, and the story is exposed through a reporter attempting to solve the obscurity of Kane's single dying word, 'Rosebud'. Although the film enjoyed critical acclaim, it was a box office flop. It faded into insignificance until, some years later, it caught the attention of French critics. This led to renewed interest and, in 1956, the film enjoyed an amazing American revival. Once again, film critics unofficially agreed it was the greatest film of all time. For the next 50 years, CK remained on all the leading film polls. The cinematography was seen by film historians and scholars as Welles' way of creating a new method of film making. The most unique aspect of CK was the prolonged use of deep focusing. In almost every scene, the background, foreground, and all in between, are in focus. This was achieved by the cinematographer after experimenting with lights and lenses. Another notable element of the film was the way which low angle film shots were used. Ceilings are visibly seen in the background of numerous scenes. At that time, all movies were filmed on sound stages. It was not possible to show a ceiling because sound stages had no ceilings. So how was it done in CK? The Citizen Kane crew draped muslin above the set to give the illusion of a room with a ceiling. Microphones were concealed above the muslin. The crew even made trenches in the floor to facilitate low angle shots for the scene that shows Kane meeting up with Leland after the elections. The part of Charles Kane was played by Welles himself. The story takes place in an alternate 1985, where the Cold War is still going strong and Richard Nixon is still president. movie downloads for psp Hopefully in the next decade we will see some new approach, style and way to present horror movies. You may even come across those that are lighters as well as belt buckles.

The Incredibles movie certainly lived up to its name and made for an incredible animation movie. Pixar never fails to amaze and entertain and even move audiences with their fresh animation movies that are simply one better than the other.

The Incredibles is just such a movie with elements of drama, action and humor all blended together in the right proportions. The movie gets off to an action packed start with Mr. Incredible coming to the rescue of the city.

To add to his woes, it turns out that the person he rescues didn't want to be rescued and promptly sues Mr. Incredible. The city officials too decide to ban him from executing his superhero duties on account of the damages incurred. Mr. Incredible gets on with his daily life with Elastigirl and starts a family however; he is not really satisfied with the lack of action in his life. In addition, his kids have also inherited some superhero powers and try not to use it in their daily life. Mr. Incredible soon finds himself in mid-life crisis and decides to do something about it. But at the same time a Super Villain who wants to be a Super Hero is making a comeback. Throughout the movie you tend to keep forgetting that you are watching an animation. Most of the scenes including the characters look very real. Some of the elements such as water and fire are one of the most difficult to depict in animation but Pixar manages to bring everything to life quite beautifully. The movie definitely draws inspiration from some famous comic superheroes such as the Fantastic Four, the Silver Surfer and almost certainly the Watchmen. In fact, a lot of keen comic readers believe that the Incredibles is more or less based on the Watchmen graphic novel.
