110211's Review of the movie "The Caller"

The Caller
At the beginning I was not expected too much from it but was pleasantly surprised, this movie had enough twists and turns and is definitely eligible to call itself a thriller, horror mystery.

Lead actress Rachelle Lefevre plays Mary Kee, moves into a new apartment and starts to  get  phone calls from a mysterious woman, the two become friends then,  as Mary starts to realise the caller is from the past , as in another time, Mary she tries to breaks contact but then the story starts to take a sinister turn.

Phone stalking this is anything but, straight forward, how do you get rid of someone from the past?
As Mary starts to find solutions to the problem , anything she does starts to impact the present day.
Even though I have given quite a bit of information the movie is totally not predictable , so enjoy, I would recommend going out to see this one.

If you like creepy ghosts, this film is for you-whoo


RING-RING!!!  RING- RING !!!

Also stars  Stephen Moyer  as John Guidi (Vampire Bill from True blood), haven't seen him do anything on screen since true blood, so was a nice surprise, acting is spot on in this movie.

Conspiracy Vs. Truth : Review of the movie "Apollo 18 "

hmmm what to say....
well if you like paranormal activity then this is the movie for you.

Paranormal activity in space  ergo Apollo 18

( some say Blair witch, but I'm not buying that)

Is the only way to describe this incredibly tedious movie, I would go so far as to say the best thing about it was the ending credits, no wait was it the beginning credits ?

I  recommend  not to  even waste your time watching this movie, go for a walk or something.

 The storyline follows a loose conspiracy about the moon landing and the possibility of aliens on the dark side of the moon. In real life the mission was to survey the Copernicus cater on the moon as part of the manned moon landing program of the 1960's.

It was filmed as though looking back in time to see what happened during the abandonment of Apollo 18, the quality of the film used was good in my opinion but not much else to say about it than that.

I would give this movie a 2 out of 5, it would have been a 1 out of 5 but I spilt my popcorn and that counts as an action sequence , making it 2 stars out of 5.

As far as the conspiracy theory goes in the 1972's the mission Apollo 18,19,20 were cancelled due to technical difficulties according to wikipedia. So with these movies there is probably room  for  2 more films, great!

110211's Review of the movie "Larry Crowne"

Hmm, what to say, what to say, a blockbuster movies this doth not maketh but still good.

I don't know what planet the director comes from but I bet they have free icecream and lots of soft pillows.

The story is about a man called Larry Crowne who loses his job after many many many years in work and decides to go back to college to retrain.

This movie is definetly aimed at the middle-aged audience, I mean they still have time to go to the cinema right?  I would say this is the "inbetweeners movie" aimed at 50 somethings. There I said it,

Ok I get Tom Hanks did Forrest Gump and now he is acting as Larry Crowne, worth the risk to repeat the success don't ya think? Me thinks not.

The acting in the movie was great and Larry learns not to take life too seriously as he starts again as he sees it , but it has a nice cheery ending and the film leaves you uplifted, in the knowledge that some adults really do live in cloud cookoo land.

well enough about Tom Hanks, and enough about what has happened to Julia Roberts face in this movie? (his alcoholic teacher Mercedes Tainot)

The sweet thing about this movie is that the two main characters Mercedes and Larry,meet and enjoy a small spark between them as they find themselves at a stage in their lives where things could be better but they are enjoying each others company, ya know the little things!

Needless to say I will never get my money back and this movie was ok-ish but an unrealistic protrayal of tough economic times for a 50 something,
exactly how does a college graduate afford an upmarket boutique in the the best street in town just after graduation ?
I thought the part of the ending that was the most pathetic was the college grads trading in their girly pastel coloured mopeds for  black Harley motorcycles, c'mon I saw at least a 1200cc among that lot.

I think the main message of this movie was that " if your life stands still enough you'll always have what you have, but it doesn't , life changes all the time "

Be prepared for change, or change will come to you.
