This movie is typical earth/alien sort of movie reversed in nature, where humans pose a threat. I recall only 1 small scene that made me lol (laugh out loud). Apart for that little bitty scene of humor this movie does not have much humor associated with it. Animations are as one would put it – typical for an animation movie, nothing too spectacular. Planet 51 might be a good movie for kids to watch, but if you watch animated movies for giggles, this movie will disappoint you in that retrospect.

Let me break down the movie quickly for you:

Movies starts off showing tailors of alien invasion (mainly by humans), trying to take over Planet 51.
This kid Lem, is the what story revolves around. As with any typical movie, he is too shy to tell Neera his feelings for her. Every times he tries to do so, gets distracted or portrayed as one who hates Aliens, which Neera does not approve of.
Chucks (the astronaut) ship/lunar excursion module, lands in Lem’s backyard, and he bumps into Lem who decides to help him out in getting back to his ship in orbit that is to return to earth in few hours.
Movie goes along the storyline of how to get chuck back home, and shows how aliens are perceived on this planet and are considered hostile, like as on earth and earth like alien movies we show aliens as being a threat.

This movie might not be a funny venture, but surely has a moral attached to it.
Moral being that if we were to ever make the first contact with any alien life form, how our reactions would/should be. Shall we consider all aliens as being hostile (as depicted in most alien movies I have seen) or shall we assume they are friendly?  I think this movie tries to prepare us for possible future contact? Now do aliens exists or is there any other life form out there is a hot topic for debate. To be able to understand this movie you should have a broad mindset, for kids however it’s just another cartoon with characters that act dumb/stupid which makes kids happy. Read on various review sites that kids enjoy the movie and are able to follow it more than they would Wall-e. If I were to rate this movie on basis of humor I would give it 2/10, but if I were to base my review on storyline and perception I would rate it as 8/10. Overall if we combine I would still not rate this move over 6/10 and a movie not worth watching in a theater, it’s just not a theater worth movie unless it’s in 3d.

Sitting there watching Twilight I realized that the storyline is rather weak and odd for a vampire type movie, but it was too late, cause tickets to the movie  were already purchased (6$ so not a big deal). At 10 we meet up in the theater, are bored to death by the 30 minutes infomercials and trailers for new movies coming out, which did not look too great!!  Movie starts off where they left it in the first movie, from the next day that is of prom night. The vampire dude” Edward” aka Robert Pattinson invites “Bella” aka Kristen Stewart (She is pretty I must say) over to his house for Bella’s birthday party. At Edward’s place Bella magically gets a nice big paper cut while opening her present, and Jasper Whitlock aka Jackson Rathbone (real name) almost tries to eat Bella alive cause of his addiction to “blood” duuh !! What a junkie!

Edward’s family manage to stop Jasper from making Bella his meal on Bella’s birthday, but both Bella and Edward get shaken up and to avoid anything bad happening to Bella and to keep her safe, Edward decides to dump her and his entire vampire family moves away to different place.
After that there is like about 10 – 15 minutes of basically nothing!! Bella starts talking with Jacob (the ware wolf) and few more boring minutes pass building a bike and stuff, Bella gets visit from old vampire friend that is trying to kill her. Story from there forth, just revolves around Bella the entire time, well the whole freaking movie is all about Bella with lame acting by Edward and mediocre acting by Jacob.

Same old story as one would expect, there is 1 girl 2 lovers, the girl loves only 1 of them hence, other one just sits on the sideline not able to anything about it. Action in the movie is alright whenever there is any. But overall to be frank here, the acting, storyline kind of sucked. Maybe the animation and effects were alright (not superb) that alone does not cut the mustard. The movie is built up “Hype” and good marketing I would say. If I were to choose between “Paranormal Activity” or “New Moon” I would definitely pick Paranormal Activity, for it is short and does not stretch. I am sure Twilight will come up with another part that will be continuation of “New Moon” for they still have not turned Bella into Vampire!! Dammit she wants to be vampire so badly why not just let it be, get it over with and end the movie!!

I am sure I did not enjoy watching the movie, wasted my 6 bucks to watch sparkling vampires, but hey that’s just me, go ahead and watch it for yourself and see if you enjoy it or not. I rate the movie 4.5/10 if not 1, due to bits and pieces of action and 3d animations. When I go for a movie, I want to watch one with a strong storyline and one that keeps you interested and awake.

Instead of watching it alone on my own, I was like o sweet can watch it with few friends.. we call our friends and get rolling at 12.30 am.. yes the spookiest time of the night ! I thought with friends it will be less scarier.. but I was mistaken ! It sure is a low budget movie but the sounds make it scary.. but than again its the sounds in the first place that make any scary movie scary unless you got bunch of clowns jumping in-front of cameras from no where to get scary effects. Yes, lots fear Clowns for some reason !

I had seen parts of the movie already and did get over them in like 2 days or so.. but what was scarier than the movie was the crazy screaming from “Brittany” one of my friends friend… omfg she had seen it already once and was watching it again for what reason ?? Her other friend was alright for she was not going crazy out of her mind.  Movie in general I think has like maybe 4 major scary scenes , the best one was one Katie gets dragged out of her bed Looked real.. but movie ain’t real cause both cast members are still there making more movies .

Paranormal Activity I for a second thought was something about little green men.. but come on putting demons in it and haunting is not cool. Was hoping to see some crazy stuff from little green men from mars or something. It sure is scary but I think “Blair Witch” project is scarier. Is this movie worth going to theater to watch it .. Hmm i suppose just cause of better sound effects in the theaters and not to mention hearing screaming from others (mostly from chicks which is so obvious) . Storyline of the movie is alright but it’s hard to believe that it’s real, if you know you are being haunted why be a nooob and not do anything about it and stay in the same place and film the shit out the haunting ? Come on who does that ? Would you film yourself if you were being haunted and release it as a movie ? I know I wouldn’t and I seriously hope that I do not get haunted ever !

Is the movie fake ? Well it’s just as fake as you would think of  “Blair Witch” project.. I find that more and more movies that are low budget movies are “scary” for they scare me cause i fear  ” 1hr and 30 mins going down the boredom drain”, especially if you go watch it in a theather and spend mooola. For example most wont find Disctrict 9 as scary.. but i found it freaking scary and it end up that way too, cause i was like in the theather thinking “omg omg when is this shit gonaa end”.

Go watch the movie if you want to fry your brains and give yourself a week or 2 of restless nights (duuh i kept waking up in middle of night more like morning went to bed at 4 and looking around for something in the dark…. i hope i have a better night tonight !!)

The first movie I saw on big screen was Dark Knight or some refer to it “Dork Knight” !! Well the sound effects in a theater is what gets to you. For movie 2012 there are some boooooms and crashes and lots of things blowing up and it gives movie a nice charm to it other than the fact that you see tons and tons of people die .  2012 looks way better in theather than District 9 ( i think that was total waste of my money). 2012 starts of from scene in India which I was like …. hmmmm.. why do most disaster movies start with scenese from India or something… example i think “day after tomorrow ” also starts off from scene from India…. I suppose all the smart scientists come from there …  yes I am from india but aint no scientist but when there are no subtitles in scenes like that where they talk in Hindi, I sure look the smartest in the theater hall… for I can understand what they just said but not the rest !!!! Do not worry there is nothing too seriously crazy talk happening in Hindi at the first scene…

From the start the movie tries to build up the basic foundations and shows some of the things the goverments of the world trying to preserve their history/culture and stuff…. and prepare for 2012, O i forgot to mention in 2009 the movie starts off, when they first discover that “Earth’s crest is gonaa melt, like a popsicle would, if left out of the fridge for too long”.. from there on it takes about 15 – 20 mins to get into 2012 where the real action starts to happen… the main cast discovers on his camping trip that the lake he used to go to with his ex… has vaporized !! There he meets an anchor for some radio station who warns him of the whole conspiracy theory and how governments were building spaceships…. and mentions something about a map to get there…

I will not go into much details as to where the map leads to.. thats cause you do not want to ruin the fun of watching the movie now … anyways the story keeps building up.. and events keep happening.. and the graphics speak out for itself… looked unrealistic cause it was but I think, little bit better graphics effects could have been added..

If you were to ask me … how did you find the movie … i would say “hmm i dunno alright i suppose” story I think is bit cheesy.. not what I expected the end of the world to happen that way.. (come on earth crest melting ).. i thought another planet would come crashing into Earth or something in 2012. But either ways if 10-12 bucks is not a whole lot for you.. I would go watch it in the theather or wait for the DVD if you got a nice kickass home theather system at home..

So now the question that is on everyones mind… will our world end in 2012 ? Well i can only write for myself and what I think of 2012 so here it goes …

If you are reading this post in 2013… that means you should not read what i have to say below ……

Well there might be a catastrophic cosmic change that might occur in 2012… but  if it destroys the earth.. and nasa or someone else knows for sure about it… they won’t be running around on the street announcing the same.. for it will just create too much panic..Resecession has cost us already too many jobs in 2009.. such a public announcement by our governments would mean end of the world for sure even before we hit 2011 !! Chaos will be everywhere… no one would want to work and would just want to enjoy their last few years on this planet. When i think of such a thing, I always get distracted by the thought for those unfortunate people out there, who know they won’t make it to the next year cause of their illness.. like cancer and other life threating sickness. I cannot imagine their pain and their ordeal, so instead of panicing about 2012 try to make the world a better place and donate when you can to charities that are trying to find cure for cancer and other ailments that are uncureable …If you cannot donate atleast help those that need your support it means the world to them.

PS: the wordpress should have a spell check for those like me who cannot spell at times (which is like almost all the time) !!

Anyways go watch DASVIDANIYA, if you do not understand hindi try to find it with english subtitles, cause its very much watchable even if you are not a Bollywood fan.
I give it 10/10 for a bollywood movie.

PS: Found some DASVIDANIYA subtitles in english try it, rename the file to reflect the name of your movie file and see if it works or not, if not google up and you shall find.

Enjoy

Apart from the wrong choice for james bond cast this latest release of QUANTUM OF SOLACE is just awful, first of all a james bond movie should have some fancy gadgets and stuff to help bond out, but this one is as if they had no money to come up with some fancy gadget at all, i noticed nothing fancy even in the last movie. For a sci-fi/action fan like myself thats a turn off. Even Dark Knight had more gadgets or atleast interesting shots and scenes.

QUANTUM OF SOLACE starts off with a car chase (which is like ok whats so special in this ?) compare this car case with the one they had in Dark Knight and how it ended. From there it goes into a foot chase within 5-10 mins. now come on James Bond looks more or less like a monkey in the chase. From there its slow nothing too fancy happens. Till like about the end of the movie where there is 1 big fighting sequence, more or less a show telling you how to escape from building on fire !

So bottom line is come on stop wasting time going to theater to watch this just another action movie. Has close to nothing when it comes to action and has 0 % of sci-fi aspect. (ok there was a jump from plane without shute but nothing fancy there either in terms of adding something scientific gadget or stuff).

I give QUANTUM OF SOLACE a 5/10 and the previous bond movie a 5/10 also. Daniel Craig is just freaking too rigid has no charm at all !! Not sure if the game is worth buying either cause if movie was this awful how is the game going to perform ?

Feel free to comment and express what you fealt after watching the movie.  I feel that its a touching movie and will touch your heart ( atleast some brief moment).

Well wanted to start this reviews section long time back, as I spent lots of time on movies or tv series. And Dark Knight or as i call it Batman Part 2 is just the right movie to start of with  a bang (cause my ears are still ringing with all that sound/blasts/ and what not from the movie)…. PS: If you ask me today or  tomorrow or day after tomorrow who were the actors/cast etc in the movie were, well I am sorry i do not know, i rather follow a movie more than try to remember who is casting (by that i mean their real life name( ) in them. So here is the info of the movie i grabbed of our friendly search engine “google”. This is directly stolen from IMDB itself, and the list was long so go crazy if you feel like it, by visiting and looking at that big cast list of Dark Knight! (source: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0468569/fullcredits )

Cast (in credits order)

	Christian Bale	…	Bruce Wayne / Batman
	Heath Ledger	…	The Joker
	Aaron Eckhart	…	Harvey Dent / Two-Face
	Michael Caine	…	Alfred Pennyworth
	Maggie Gyllenhaal	…	Rachel Dawes
	Gary Oldman	…	Lt. James Gordon
	Morgan Freeman	…	Lucius Fox
	Monique Curnen	…	Det. Ramirez
	Ron Dean	…	Detective Wuertz

Ok now that you have gone through the list by know lets start talking bit about the movie as it is. Some call Dark Knight as “Dork Knight” which I think doesnt really sink in well with the movie itself. Was it boring, well not really, from the start it had action and most importantly “The Jokers” wittyness/cunningness. I think i just made up a word !!
Were there scenes that could cause serious boredom? Well not serious boredom will set in unless you do not want to understand the concept and story of whats happening and why its happenings. Unless you are basically like one those the kinda kid , who gets to go infront of camera to review some movie they just saw in a big fatass cinema and can only  come up with “oo movie was great there were lots of fights/killing and blasting.. and whoooo i am only 10 and my parents want me to grow up into a tough guy/gal ” . If you like to watch some movies well Dark Knight should work out fine too. But story building in this movie sounds about right.
Were there scenes i liked the most, yes i like the Chopper Scene. I think they only got 1 chopper scene though in the entire movie, so yaa that one !! The one where chopper is taken down by strangling it !!! Come on you gotta admit that i never saw coming, i was like ok those things in those thugs hands are BAZOOKA’s but nope they were not. And not to mention the very next scene after above , the flipping of that truck. But whats unrealistic is (not saying the whole movie is realistic in the first place) is that Joker walks out the flipped Trailer Truck without scratches , while the person sitting beside him never walks out of it !! God dont you love combic book hero movies where good guy never dies, nor does the bad guy !! Not saying no good guy died in this movie, lots of good guys were terminated !! Wont kill the suspense for those wanting to go watch the movie by telling who died and who didn’t , who knows might even get sued by the makers of movie for ruining the suspense and story telling the entire Batman Movie !!

There are lots of scenes that looked amazing and I have to admit the Graphics were great, I was shocked to see how real they made Two-Face guy’s face look so real, you could even see the chin bone exposed, but what i did not understand was that without eye lashes, how come the eye was not watery all the time !! Cause i am sure its a biological thing that happens when eye lashes are missing, might google up more on what are the consequences of missing eyelashes and no blinking on the eye.

So if i were to rate the movie how would i rate it well since i really do not follow comic heros much, and have never been a big fan of batman ever, would give it 8.5/10 overall. Trust me to earn a 9 in my books is really really hard. I would only give 1 movie a 9.5/10 would be “Day after Tomorrow” i really enjoyed that movie and never got bored watching it even for a minute. In this movie i think there were parts that bored me, but the main question on all those with the tight budget (*cough me one of them) would be — Is Dark Knight Worth watching in Theater ?  Well my reply is “O yaa baby” trust me even on your subwoofers/ and kick ass TV with fancy blue rays shabang you cannot beat the wide screen action, and the shaking of the hall when a bullet goes off or when a car crashes….. There are lots of twists throughout the movie, and it seems like its not going end now.. but does really does… Joker plays a very cunning role and acting was equally amazing. I think i liked his acting more than batman’s … Maybe cause he knew how to turn the cards around .. Especially with Reese (lol i felt for that poor guy, he acting seemed natural to me and probably has some future but that’s just me..)…

Anyways go watch that movie whenever its playing in a theater near you at the price right for you. Well I did in Saskatoon’s Galaxy Theater, with my friends. This was their 2nd time !! And i am Sure Dan would be going there again for the 3rd time next week . Will add more to review of feel free to add your own review via the “comment” posting feature of this blog !! Its called technology … just bugging yaa :p

PS: by the way the chick sitting beside me probably covered her ears at time’s some serious loud action was taking place, as the movie was played in like full volume, which is good and the way i like it
