The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn - Part 2 (2012)
A decent twist! to watch
Im not a massive fan of twilight and not much of a fan of vampire and werewolf films although i do always watch true blood. I went to watch twilight breaking dawn part 2 on Friday as my mates wanted to watch it but i wanted to watch the new James bond, however i did end up watching twilight and i thought the first hour of it wasn't anything spectacular and i can't believe the fanbase that twilight has got.
Apart from the shawshank redemption the twist you see in the film when Alice Cullen takes the leader of the volturi's hand is one of the most surprising moments of a film i have watched as i did not for one second like many people for that to happen, now I'm not a twilight fan but you have to say that it was a unexpected twist in the film no matter how much you dislike the films, that was one of the good parts of the film.
The Shawshank Redemption (1994)
Everyone say it's the best film but it really is one of the best film!
Everyone says the shawshank redemption is one of the best films made but i can't disagree. Everything about it makes it the film it is the sound , setting and the narrating by Morgan freeman. The film is a crime drama and we understand at the start of the film that Andy dufrense is a intelligent man and seems very quite at the beginning of the film, he seems a though he thinks a lot.
We then get to understand Andy better when he becomes close friends with red who is has been at shawshank for many years. we are then shown as a spectator Andy experience in shawshank from fighting of the rapists which then ends up with the main one getting transferred to then helping out Hadley with his financial issues to then becoming a friend of warden Norton. however this all changes when Andy finds out the warden can help him to get out of shawshank because he can prove he is innocent but the warden refuses to do this which turns out to be a big mistake for him as we come to see one of the best scenes of movie when we find out Andy had escaped from shawshank but not only doing that giving the FBI all the corrupt documents that Norton was involved in which then leads to the FBI coming to arrest Norton.
we then see red walking along the beach and smiles at Andy as he is walking up to him.
It's not just the story than makes this a great film. the sound which was used in the film made it even better the music used was just right for each scene and was one of the best parts about the film also. if you haven't watch the shawshank redemption yet i would recommend it.
Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy (2004)
One of the best most stupid comedies made! FUNNY FILM!
I have seen some of the reviews on anchorman of people saying it's just a stupid comedy, However do they not realise thats the whole point of anchorman to be as stupid as possible. Will Ferrel gives one of his best comedy performances as Ron burgundy with his 3 other news reporters brick , Brian and champ.
The film just reminds me of 4 men trying to be as cool as possible and when they try to do this it's funny to the audience. The amount of quotes in this film from all 5 main characters are just the best! If you haven't watched anchorman yet i would highly recommend it. there are also some other good comedy performances from Ben stiller , Vince Vaughn and Luke Wilson. Im not sure if the second one that is being realised next year will be as good i'll have to watch it but if it matches to the first one it will be a very funny film and it will be good to watch.
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows - Part 2 (2011)
Very good!
I thought the deathly hallows part 2 was up there with one of the best Harry potter films made , however I thought we didn't get a chance to enjoy certain parts as they put so much into the film.
My Favorite part of the film was how snape was portrayed as through the other 7 films we don't really understand snape and after the half blood prince seeing him kill dumbledore I couldn't understand why he done it , until we find out he was good all along and dumbledore set it up. I also liked how we got a sense of power voldemort has , as we see bellatrix who is a feared character so nervous around voldemort especially when she trys to help him up after he falls.
Overall I thought it was a very good film with plenty of action , although some parts could of been explained a little better , but still a really good movie! I did read also that J.K rowling wants to make a director's cut of the movie.
The Dark Knight Rises (2012)
Absolutely brilliant!
Well what can I say the dark knight rises was brilliant , I didn't expect some of the twists that we're in the film such as bane not actually being the son of Ra's al ghul , and i was convinced that bane would also be the only villain.
Also I liked the connection between batman and catwomen ,which Anne Hathaway was defiantly the right actress for.
The action in the film and all the effects were brilliant and Christopher Nolan directed them just right , the story was also great and how I thought robbin would not be mentioned in the film but we find out that Joseph gordon-Levitt's name is robbin who's character is much like batman.
All in all it was a great movie although I still think the dark knight is the best out of the three films , the film was still very good and i think there are many more great movies to come from Christopher Nolan.
