- DirectorJosh TrankStarsDane DeHaanAlex RussellMichael B. JordanThree high school friends gain superpowers after making an incredible discovery underground. Soon they find their lives spinning out of control and their bond tested as they embrace their darker sides.I really enjoyed this film, would like to have seen more of what gave them the powers but I'm sure that'll be in the sequel! Need to watch again for update.
- DirectorNeill BlomkampStarsSharlto CopleyDavid JamesJason CopeThirty years ago, aliens arrive on Earth to find refuge. Separated from humans in a District 9, they are managed by Multi-National United. When a field agent contracts a virus that begins to alter his DNA, there is only one place to hide.Different location, creatures, ideology, this film had it in my opinion. From anti-hero to hero? It's nice to see someone else make a film where you actually get involved opposed to watch cause it's a blockbuster with names.
- DirectorBarry LevinsonStarsWill RogersKristen ConnollyKether DonohueChaos breaks out in a small Maryland town after an ecological disaster occurs.No big explosions, no people running around hopelessly being stupid, no big stunts etc which would have spoiled this film anyway. Good storyline explaining everything from all departments. Some good shocks but done in a believable way. Yeh, good film.
Holy chicken *beep* though!!! - DirectorPeter BergStarsAlexander SkarsgårdBrooklyn DeckerLiam NeesonA fleet of ships is forced to do battle with an armada of unknown origins in order to discover and thwart their destructive goals.I know this wasn't very good but I went into it with that knowledge and thoroughly enjoyed it. It had Aliens and the sea, 2 of my favourite things so I had a laugh. Used to be a Rhianna hater but thought she did well in this film.
- DirectorJonathan LiebesmanStarsAaron EckhartMichelle RodriguezBridget MoynahanA squad of U.S. Marines becomes the last line of defense against a global invasion.Let the mind go free and don't read into these films, take them for what they are. A good watch. Nice to see that Michelle Rodriguez has a different facial expression and although still a tough role a different kind of character.
- DirectorNicholas MeyerStarsWilliam ShatnerLeonard NimoyDeForest KelleyOn the eve of retirement, Kirk and McCoy are charged with assassinating the Klingon High Chancellor and imprisoned. The Enterprise crew must help them escape to thwart a conspiracy aimed at sabotaging the last best hope for peace.Good plot followed with a decent storyline. Iman's character was awesome and nice surprise of her alien status. Nice touch with the signature credits and great Slater cameo. This has always been my favourite.
- DirectorLuc BessonStarsScarlett JohanssonMorgan FreemanChoi Min-sikA woman, accidentally caught in a dark deal, turns the tables on her captors and transforms into a merciless warrior evolved beyond human logic.A Besson joint with Johansson playing the turning of her character so well, really good performance. The crossover of Japanese, French and American was refreshing. The reactions of the doctors at the time when they thought they were going to get killed was well played, they looked really scared and shocked. Ok, so it was a bit OTT when she completely turned but still a highly enjoyable action film to watch encompassing a worthy scientific view.
- DirectorGuillermo del ToroStarsIdris ElbaCharlie HunnamRinko KikuchiAs a war between humankind and monstrous sea creatures wages on, a former pilot and a trainee are paired up to drive a seemingly obsolete special weapon in a desperate effort to save the world from the apocalypse.Obvious beginning setting up the plot which is getting boring and should be different by now especially as it was such a blockbuster. The odd couple personalities was hard to capture but they got away with it. One thing I did notice is they've been fighting these beasts for so long so how did they have large areas still built up beautifully. I did like the concept of digital and analogue and the choreography was ok but they did still remind me of Autobots. All in all it was watch-able but not that exciting.
- DirectorAlfonso CuarónStarsSandra BullockGeorge ClooneyEd HarrisDr Ryan Stone, an engineer on her first time on a space mission, and Matt Kowalski, an astronaut on his final expedition, have to survive in space after they are hit by debris while spacewalking.The accident should have been longer but it was incredibly shot. Then it went morbid. I know a bit about astronaut training so can say that Bullock's character would have in no way been allowed to go to space, she would have been a great liability. Shot, yes it was good but apart from that I lost interest!
- DirectorScott StewartStarsKeri RussellJake BrennanJosh HamiltonAs the Barrett family's peaceful suburban life is rocked by an escalating series of disturbing events, they come to learn that a terrifying and deadly force is after them, one which may have arrived from beyond the stars.Good acting, very atmospheric music and the things were actually very creepy especially with the magic act. It wasn't scary but really didn't need to be as the story was better than most but there were some shocks. Good watching.
- DirectorColin StrauseGreg StrauseStarsEric BalfourDonald FaisonScottie ThompsonStrange lights descend on the city of Los Angeles, drawing people outside like moths to a flame where an extraterrestrial force threatens to swallow the entire human population off the face of the Earth.Again, the usual story and a good easy watch.
- DirectorDuncan JonesStarsJake GyllenhaalMichelle MonaghanVera FarmigaA soldier wakes up in someone else's body and discovers he's part of an experimental government program to find the bomber of a commuter train within 8 minutes.Twas a nice watch, good idea!
- DirectorJamin WinansStarsChristopher Soren KellyQuinn HuncharJessica DuffyA mysterious creature, known as Ink, steals a child's soul in hopes of using it as a bargaining chip to join the Incubi - the group of supernatural beings responsible for creating nightmares.Didn't know what to expect and was thoroughly surprised as to how this film had me entranced til the end. Some of the shots looked quite menacing but so simply done. I don't know what it was about this film as it's not very exciting but there's an underlying emotional side that kept me trapped. Very good for what it was.
- DirectorJoseph KosinskiStarsTom CruiseMorgan FreemanAndrea RiseboroughJack Harper, a drone repairman stationed on Earth that has been ravaged by war with extraterrestrials, questions his identity after rescuing the woman who keeps appearing in his dreams.I don't know if it's because I'm not a Cruise fan but all his films just seems to be an epic load of crap. Ok, maybe not that bad but this film was quite boring. The storyline was ok but not brilliant and I just kept waiting for something else to happen. The ending was good though.
- DirectorDavid CronenbergStarsJennifer O'NeillStephen LackPatrick McGoohanA scientist trains a man with an advanced telepathic ability called "scanning" to stop a dangerous Scanner with extraordinary psychic powers from waging war against non scanners.Was this the 1st Mutant superhumans movie? Great twist ending but dodgy sound dubbing. I enjoyed at the time.
- DirectorOlatunde OsunsanmiStarsMilla JovovichElias KoteasWill PattonA thriller involving an ongoing unsolved mystery in Alaska, where one town has seen an extraordinary number of unexplained disappearances during the past 40 years and there are accusations of a federal cover up.Erm, the jury is still out. I guess it was different to have the original videos built in with the story. Really dunno . . . although, what did that cop see. We all saw it as well, but come on, a spaceship, flying saucer even!!!
- DirectorBrett LeonardStarsJeff FaheyPierce BrosnanJenny WrightA simple man is turned into a genius through the application of computer science.Essentially it was the film that paved the way for films like matrix and so for that it does get great recognition. But it doesn't stand the test of time as watching the film in the late noughties it doesn't do anything. Was great for it's time but not for nowadays.
- DirectorOmar NaimStarsRobin WilliamsJim CaviezelMira SorvinoSet in a world with memory recording implants, Alan Hakman is a cutter, someone with the power of final edit over people's recorded histories. His latest assignment is one that puts him in danger.The idea was really cool but it was done in a boring way. I mean I understand why but it did nothing for me. Interesting watch though.
- DirectorFrank DarabontStarsThomas JaneMarcia Gay HardenLaurie HoldenA freak storm unleashes a species of bloodthirsty creatures on a small town, where a small band of citizens hole up in a supermarket and fight for their lives.If it wasn't for the religious segment that did just go on this wouldn't have been so bad. But then again I'll never understand why they wanted to go out knowing full well everyone got killed out there, did they think they were immortal? The ending is probably one of the greatest ever, nice to have an unhappy ending for a change. LOL
- DirectorMark NeveldineBrian TaylorStarsGerard ButlerMichael C. HallLudacrisIn a future mind-controlling game, death row convicts are forced to battle in a 'Doom'-type environment. Convict Kable, controlled by Simon, a skilled teenage gamer, must survive thirty sessions in order to be set free.Nice to see John de Lancie in action even for a short while. This film was a poor mans Matrix in reverse? And I don't know why but it reminded me of Lawnmower man. I thought this film, boring and uninteresting!
- DirectorKerry ConranStarsGwyneth PaltrowJude LawAngelina JolieAfter New York City receives a series of attacks from giant flying robots, a reporter teams up with a pilot in search of their origin, as well as the reason for the disappearances of famous scientists around the world.
- DirectorJon FavreauStarsDaniel CraigHarrison FordOlivia WildeA spaceship arrives in 1873 Arizona to take over the Earth, starting with the Wild West region. All that stands in their way: a posse of cowboys and natives.
