Its Been a while...

Well, its been a while since we have last talked to you blog. I haven't written in awhile simply because there hasn't been any good movies come out recently. Yeah, we the oscar season but I don't want to bore you. Side note, big suprise on Sandra Bullock taking the best actress. In the winter time there is a serious dry spot for movies. But we are coming into the summer and this gets me very excited! May usually is the kick off with a great comic book movie. This year we have Iron-Man 2! I was very pleased with Favreau's direction in the first and more than pleased with Robert Downey Jr. In number 2 we have Mickey Rourke as Wiplash. There is a power packed cast that also includes Gwenneth Paltrow, Don Cheadle, and yes Samuel L.

Also we have in may Robin Hood directed by Ridley Scott! This is going to be incredible. This film has a stunning cast led by Russell Crowe and Cate Blanchett! Remember when Russell Crowe and Ridley Scott teamed up and they made Gladiator. That is my prediction for Robin Hood. Maybe not Best Picture but Freakin Awesome!

There is also Sex and the City 2! Yep, thats retarded. Matthew Broderick needs to take his wife(Sarah Jessica Parker) and say, don't be stupid, the world has seen enough Sex in the City...(Heck we've got reality T.V.)

For the kids and myself... Shrek! Shrek is a movie that continues to get better through out the sequals. Shrek the Third was incredible and I can't wait to see what they have put together for the fourth. Man, Mike Myers is the man.

Well Blog, its been real. I'm going to watch ong-Baak 2 Thai Warrior now. See you later.

Sherlock Holmes

Sherlock Holmes. In this rendition of the character Sherlock and his side kick Watson are trying to find the leader of a cult who has came back from the dead. With explosions, hand to hand combat, and Robert Downey Jr.'s charm and wit, the film was set up to be very entertaining. In fact it was entertaining and may I say awesome.

I am a fan of Robert Downey Jr, what he brings to the table every time he is in a movie, for some reason I love him. Jude Law is also a nice touch to this action comedy. Guy Richie (Director) is able to put a strange twist into an old fashion character that is a huge risk. Sure a lot of critics will say that he is stupid for making Holmes more violent but again, ts entertaining. The movie made me laugh, got me involved with the characters, and had me guessing throughout.

The bads in this film are as follows... It is a little over the top. I can't point to much out of it other than that. However we should all realize it will be over the top when Guy Richie gets a hold of it.

The moral issues... The swearing is almost not there. 1 D word and 2 hells taken wrongly. There are a few sexual innuendos and some suggestive material, (I've seen worse in a Disney cartoon) also there are some frightening images. This is why it is PG-13. There is a man that is caught on fire while he is still alive, you see a corpse in a coffin with maggots on his face, and you see a man hanging(To Death). The main Villian is someone who is practicing Black Magic and that is why he is wanted by the law. Holmes does a pagan ritual and has weird flashbacks(Later we find that he just recreated the ritual to find out where the next murder will be. I will say that you might get a check in your spirit if you watch it. I won't ruin the ending for you but if you watch it just know it is going to be OK.

As an overall film I give it a 7 out of 10 and as an action comedy a 8 out of 10.
