Armadillo (2010)
This movie deserves no less then 10 out of 10 stars.
This is and will always be the best war movie ever. A war movie without acting, a movie that shows what real combat looks like in the eyes of a soldier. From when they leave there loved ones at the airport to when they come home after 6 months fighting the Taliban forces in Afganistan. The movie shows strong scenes and close quarter combat like you have never seen before. This movie made me want to join the army more than ever. To watch these soldiers fight side by side, back to back, protecting each others from the enemy is just so inspiring. This is no recreation of a war incident, this is real war combat. If you like war movies this is a movie for you, no doubt. A beautiful movie.
The movie had gotten some bad criticism because of what the soldiers did in the movie. I will not say to much, but it involves how they treated the enemy after they was down. My opinion is f**k Taliban. I enjoyed every minute of it, especially the scene that i was talking about. And to add a bonus, me and some other students got a opportunity to see two of the movie makers explain how they made the movie.
Mission: Impossible - Ghost Protocol (2011)
Insanely good!!
This is why I enjoy movies so much. When a masterpiece like this is shown on the big screen you can't help it to not get carried away. The actors was amazing, the storyline was amazing, the special effects was amazing and the characters was amazing. Tom Cruise has not let us down. For the fourth time in this franchise, Cruise has shown extraordinary acting skills as playing the fearless Ethan Hunt, and of course not just him. Simon Pegg as the not intentionally funny, British hacker Benji, Jeremy Renner as William Brandt and the beautiful Paula Patton as Jane Carter.
What i love about the movie is that it got some funny scenes in it as well. It's not just action in it, comedy also. But that doesn't mean that it's a action-comedy movie. Trust me, this movie is full on action!
This movie was just a blast. Filled with action, a little humor and special effects that you can't imagine. The best "Mission Impossible" movie so far. There is a reason I rated it 10 stars!
War Games (2010)
This movie was a bad.. really, really bad!
Do not judge the book by the cover! This movie may look awesome and seem awesome, but it's far from good. Basically this movie is in the genre "Teenagers that goes into the woods and everybody gets killed". Don't get me wrong, this genre is awesome if you can make it look awesome. Take "Friday the 13th" for example, the best movie ever in this category. The only thing that interested me about this movie was the plot... people playing air-soft and it turns into a real war. Everything else didn't work out at all! There isn't even a reason for the war to take place. I can point out tons of epic fails in this movie, not like regular fails that all movies got, but fails that is so obvious. After 15 minutes i could already tell which person that was going to make it the longest and die last.
When it comes to the actors.. meh, the actors was fine I guess. It is more the characters and how the movie was from start to end that ruined the whole experience. But I can't say that I'm disappointed. Usually when there is a unknown director and actors it will turn into sh**!
Zookeeper (2011)
Just hysterical!
This movie shows that even if it's a family movie it can be funny, even without awkward nude scenes, blood, cruel language etc. I thought this movie was hysterically funny and I laughed my ass off in some moments. There is good acting, some unfamiliar actors but they were good. Kevin James fit the role perfectly, no one could have done a better job. But I rated it six stars. It is funny, a good story behind it, but it's not "Dumb & Dumber".
I can just lay down one negative thing about the movie, it has nothing to do with the movie it self, kinda... I just miss one actors presence a little more. Ken Jeong! It needs more Ken Jeong.
So when it all comes to an end, it is a good movie for people in all age groups, funny, some sad moment(s) and it has a good story.
