Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man’s Chest review

I want to express their "financial".

I was expecting something magical, but it turned out – politikanskie strife. All dreams to take Davy Jones by the neck and instruct conditions, and therefore are chasing chest. In Lukyanenko, they're there or something, zadruzhilis?

The film is not for children, they simply do not understand, yes, and not for adults, by and large. Want a tale of swashbuckling pirates, beautiful governor's daughters and desperate daredevils, in combination, the smiths.

In short, remove from the scene all too much. I have a clear division of good and bad in children's films should not have to jump over your head, Kanayan psychological drama.

Add a tactical naval battles, as in the first part, and then a movie about pirates, but srazhenitse normal during the entire movie is only one, and that – small.

And it was not worth so lean on special effects, not quantity, but quality and individuality should be taking. Also seen in the movie storyline of Captain Blood, why? It was difficult for something new to think or just gained airtime in two parts instead of one?

Under all the funny moments necessary to sign a "see Part 1," that all may remember that we must laugh.

In short, the whole film an epilogue to the first and prerequisite to the latter, nothing of themselves are not reported.

Conclusion: watch all those interested in special effects and actors who played in the film, as well as those who do not have policies in life. Not recommended to look pregnant, children under 12 without their parents (there should be someone the question "why" answer), and those who have not seen the first part.

Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl review : Gentlemen, ladies … . You will forever remember the day when you first saw the incomparable Captain Jack Sparrow!

A few weeks ago I asked my piano teacher, which is older than I am only 10 years, as it relates to one of my favorite movies – Pirates of the Caribbean ". To my surprise, she replied: "I've never looked. And that, he deserves all the praise that I heard about him?" I have a few seconds, I changed my mind about the answer and then said simply: "Pirates of the Caribbean – a classic."

Yes, I did not dare say it – classic. This film, despite the fact that he was born relatively recently, has already entered the golden fund of world cinema. And not just because he has revived the pirate movie genre, but also because since the inception of cinema, no audience has not seen anything like it.

In "Pirates of the Caribbean" has absolutely everything that can boast of adventure: they adventure, intrigue, a fascinating plot, scale, spectacle, romance, fierce fights, car chases, humor, beautiful scenery and music, on which is breathtaking.

Gore Verbinski has created an amazing world that every kid dreams of, though he did not leave indifferent and little girls too. After all, life is a pirate – is primarily a freedom, but is there a man she does not appeal?

But this movie would have been the half was not as good without the genius of Johnny Depp. In his comments to the film 18-year-old Keira Knightley said: "He always pulls the blanket!" But it is quite natural, because it's his blanket! He – the center of the film, highlight it – the key to viewers' hearts. His inimitable gestures, demeanor, gestures, gait create a seamless and vivid image that he simply can not stock up at the memory. Johnny Depp plays the strange pirate so naturally, that begins to seem that he was Jack Sparrow in a past life. Still, after he had fashioned his hero, has thought his way to the last beads in her hair.

Of course, the rest of the cast pales against the backdrop of Depp. Worthy competition he could reach except that Geoffrey Rush and Barbossa, a pirate very different quenching. He is a classic buccaneer, not for nothing that his name is consonant with the names of two world-famous pirates – with the names of red-bearded brothers Barborossoy Barborossoy I and II. If Trump Dppa – eccentricity, the trump Rush – charisma.

But saying that the rest of the actors is impressive less than Depp, I'm not in any way meant that they failed in their roles.

Orlando Bloom plays on average, but he helps his handsome appearance, so that William LTL quite convincing.

Keira Knightley – my favorite actress. But her game I like only the first part of the pirate trilogy. In the first movie she is good, although I do not sympathize with her character.

Secondary roles executed with great skill, was particularly impressed by the Commander Norington and pirate crew.

I note that in the first part of writers' work is best done, as in the plot no of strain or artificiality. Just can not remember a great dubbing that Russian visitors are pampered infrequently.

I would not be surprised if in 30 years will remove the remake of this movie, and I'll convince their grandchildren that the old version is much better and Johnny Depp – the only way Jack Sparrow.

This is one of those films that you watch over and over again many times. And when once again I close my battered box with almost erased drive to the holes, then going to the kitchen to a drunken gait, Centerfolds, involuntarily imitating the protagonist, and poured himself some coffee, sing: "So let us drink a glass, yo-ho!"

The Book of Eli review : World, lost beauty

I confess, apocalyptic movies – my weakness. And not only mine, but quite a large number of moviegoers around the world. After another film on this theme in such large numbers just do not be filmed. And this weakness is not surprising. Always interesting to speculate: what if … But even more interesting: what then? .. How things will be next? In another world? .. But for me the more interesting in this situation: how humanity will start from scratch, from zero? .. How will re-appear civilization? .. Like this: from the ruins to build something new, especially knowing what were the ruins of the past … .

The film "Book of Eli" just shows us a post-apocalyptic world. World emphasized gray, dirty, and stressed the same. In this world there is no beauty, there is no purity and nobility. As beauty and colors of the world's gone forever, because all potentially high feelings are gone from the hearts of people. People here are angry dirty mass, which for some trinkets ready to kill. Of the senses – only greed and lust. The only people more or less sensitive, are the main character Eli, the main villain of the Carnegie Solara girl, her mother and several minor characters. Thus, the authors of them, as it were isolated from the gray crowd that inhabits the planet. And puts on it.

It is difficult to name any of the hero is clearly positive. Eli … Yes, he is such a stranger, but not a knight. It can, and there is nobility, but he restrains his diligent. His position – all that means nothing to intervene. Probably, it is true to such a world. But it is rather frightening, his heart slowly freezes. Not like all these gangsters, no … Eli sees a certain goal, he was accustomed to understand it so and not otherwise. And he goes to her, almost without noticing what is happening around them. He tries not to harm anyone. But the good he does. That is with him this book – and he carries it. And the guards. You do not even understand what is important is not the book itself, and its essence. For the time being does not understand …

But the main villain of the Carnegie just yet understood. He needed the book because of its content. He does not refer to it as a shrine. No, more like a thing in which power is concentrated, which can make him ruler over the world. And the book itself – the shell – it is not so interesting. Carnegie – not a very friendly character. And it shows, even when viewed from the perspective of his relationship to his wife (or, "his" woman). That seems to us that he loves her – with a tenderness he washes her head. And now – she was his hostage. When he is sincere, and when disingenuous – do not understand … You can say one thing – he is very, very uncommon man. He's smart, because only smart people could think of to a plan that Carnegie wants to implement. He has a dream, unlike most people, the survivors. The way this dream could bring trouble, but it is. No, this hero has not lost the human race, he became an animal.

Solara – a typical girl from the movies. To the best of the naive, to the extent of bold, moderately stubborn. Can not say that it does not have his own behalf, but to say that she is very expressive, too, is impossible. It is designed to wake up here in the sense of the protagonist. And make understand. And with this role she manages. And it is unlikely for this character needs something more.

In the description of the film Eli called wise … But is this true? .. It is clear that he can not represent wisdom as we used to see her: this here white-haired old man who utters some knotty question. No, Eli other. He was to some extent worldly wise. But it is not wise. He often sees the shell but not the essence. It should encourage him to understand. So, perhaps, in the category of wise heroes Eli record is not very true.

The only bright spot in this gray world of painting – the sea. It seemed represents the revival of life. It's here – as a hope the human race to salvation and new life.

Interestingly, in this film about the causes of the disaster say casually. And do not blame the people in it. Nuclear holocaust was not. Yes and no matter why the world changed, it is important that it became … The only thing the heroes of the accused that generation, is that it has lost faith. And the survivors are trying to restore confidence. She's here – the idea that can unite the live and return to them a human face. It would seem that quite a controversial idea, but in this picture, it is not imposed. There is no sense of propaganda.

Perhaps this film I liked. It has an atmosphere, there is peace on the topic which is interesting to speculate. There are heroes, which is typically not called. So that the picture turned out. I believe in this world.

The Eagle review : Who?

Share fresh impressions.

The movie is nothing special had not expected was "the first hit".

No, I'm not disappointed with the current range in the cinema "Eagle of the Ninth Legion – a good movie. But the movie at times.

All my friends, who expected this movie can easily be divided into two groups:

– Boys. Waited for the beautiful battle scenes of brutality which is something. Someone hoping to see the "Eagle," a historical component, and some just enjoyed the way the Romans greet each other.

The battle is really bad implemented, but all the fights alone are reduced to less popular now, every second switching camera angle to camera angle .. Would use at least acrobatic talents of the actors, not the same. Tatum looks like a log log ..

– Female. Waited, in fact, the muscular and charismatic "paw from the movie step forward." Alas, be disappointed and they are – virtually the entire movie our hero is dressed in dirty rags and steel pressure will flash only once, and then a second.

I have not mentioned about the pros .. Jamie Bell is not bad, although the logic of his character's actions can be traced only in part. The costumes look pretty impressive and realistic, although there has not been without blunders.

Outcome: Ordinary slightly zashtampovanny and splodgy film. However, here at least traced the ideas of honor, valor and loyalty. Therefore, I liked it more recently published "The Way of the Warrior" and "Season of the Witch." Therefore, the "Eagle" gets

127 Hours review : Lust for Life

Prepared for the fact that "127 hours" – a serious movie with a big impact on the viewer. And it did. Movies about survival in difficult situations, by definition, can not simply like or dislike. It is life itself, almost a documentary movie that just is preceded by worship, many people are watching it. Spectators admire and respect the heroes featured in such films. That's heroes, to show restraint and composure in a seemingly hopeless situation …

And how would you do on the site of Arona? ..

"127 hours" on the significance of the chosen subjects simply had no right to be done badly. And so it happened. Movies from a highly professional, no nonsense, without any embellishments. As it was in reality. Do not dwell on all the merits of "127 hours", what aspect did not take – the selected music and innovative manner of filming to excellent directing and acting – all at the highest level. I note separately amazingly beautiful shot exotic dry mountains and caves with an underground lake.

I will not draw parallels with some of the same pictures, just remember the "Into the Wild" Sean Penn. But in general the style of "127 hours" recalled the famous story by Jack London stern "Lust for Life" and many of his other novels and short stories.

After watching this movie, once you understand that he feels the animal released to the trap. And think how much can still be a man is inhuman, dooming the smaller brothers to such torment. So, a person may also be in this situation. And there is no longer important, the trap in direct or metaphorical sense. Life situation of any person can be an oppressive trap – a problem, do not let not 127 hours, and many, many years. And most importantly – willing, able to escape this trap, find the strength to pull myself together, gather the will to try and change lives by finding a solution, and to break the "freedom" …

Have a look at "127 hours". In life there are no hopeless situations. There are only the courage and the magnitude of the price they must pay for access …

2012 review

How much can scare us crazy stories about the approaching end of the world? But most interesting is that history, or rather films the same. All the same a long time ago obezzhennaya us (the audience) story line, all the same characters: one is very good, the other already very bad, and certainly among the two of them will be those that will fall under the wing of a very good and very bad light.

In the cinema was half-heartedly, knowing that now I see "The Day After Tomorrow." And so it proved. Of course, these films make you think: "What are we doing? What is truth?" But each time, this "truth" is becoming more boring and ridiculous.

During the movie I did not feel pity, or to one of the heroes … simply do not have anybody. I knew 100% that good of course will be covered with laurels, and the bad will flounder overboard. Of course, I was worried about the heroes, when at every meter of waiting for them with all the new destructive force of the cataclysm.

In my opinion, the only plus of this film: that it is cleared. Beautiful picture, beautiful, powerful sound, which makes the jump, but it's just beautiful.

After the film with a sad smile on his face, I realized that once that happens, I am to die in water or a fire in their native expanses of Saratov. And sorry, to this day I still hoped for the best, speaking with irony.

The Eagle review : Started for the health, and finished for the repose

Movie Eagle of the Ninth Legion is not fully justified my hopes. I really liked the beginning, detailing the soldier's everyday life and I fully imbued with so horrified that experienced legionary fort at night, when he is surrounded by an invisible enemy. Interesting to show the scene where the hero Tatum – Marcus Aquila and his servant Eska interchanged. By the way, Marcus was probably Latino, not Roman, with the simple name of Mark. When the final bout brought together all the surviving soldiers of September Legion, has long coexisted peacefully with the local tribes had very good sensation, epic or something. But read more … Grabbed them with painted Picts under the shadow of an eagle and a legion … And to think not in vain because during the announcement film says that the eagle 9 Legion disappeared, along with a legion, and only in the middle of last century, found in the far north of Britain wingless eagle. Apparently the word announcement and remained words, the plot of movies they had nothing to do. In my opinion, it would be a very strong move to end the battle and the death of those and others and over their bloodied bodies, washed by water, was flying proudly to a lone banner Legion, which has had no one to defend and no one to carry.

The ending is depressing movie. The plot is weak, with many cliches. Acting usual, nothing outstanding and memorable. Scene of the battle and subsequent attacks British chariots, uncovered, in my opinion, is not enough, not spectacularly, as in other historical thrillers.

TRON: Legacy review

Ehh, "throne", "throne" … Why are you all not turned out like your first 50 minutes. To me you were on the waiting list at the first place, along with the "beginning." And you're short of expectations. I'm looking forward, instantly plunged into the film, but after we get into the cyberworld, and they begin fighting and megauletnye race I just stuck! It was awesome! But how to insert and released. Once Sam meets a father and he explains it all, the beginning of smell slightly sifachnostyu. Immediately there was a lot of questions that do not provide answers. For example, even the simplest of everyday life, where there books and food, this is the cyber world! All the super action sniklo, started some kind of fuss, it was boring … By the end, of course, everything has increased, but it was not that.

Visual component of the film simply amazing. All this style captivated me ever since the trailer. This whole universe is a cold neon me stunned. Especially want to single out a dizzying race with amazing light trails.

Of the actors, the main concerns I had about Garrett Hedlund, but in my opinion, he was the best in the film. He coped well with everything and look harmonious. But the image of Olivia Wilde disappointed, not that she played badly, just that I expected to see a sexy warrior cyberworld, and saw similar to Leeloo from "Fifth element" girl. Jeff Bridges, it's Jeff Bridges and any comments to it can not be it. But then again disappoint the image, some Jedi Favorites with the manners of the "Matrix".

In general, the script, dialogues and images of heroes limping on one leg. Speak so generally, there is no concrete and clear explanations. In such a world, I think, without specifics anywhere. Done more than just a movie, do not have to strain to account for this and sorry. And personally for me, it was necessary to add rigidity and sexuality.

All naturally praise music, and for good reason! She was terrific. Daft Punk, long listen to them, they have cool music, unusual. A soundtrack to listen to the month before the show.

If we talk about 3D, then this is definitely the best show this year. It can be rather difficult, and to understand, but personally I liked it, gladly would look a second time.

In the process of writing the review I listened to the soundtrack to the "throne", inspired by the feelings of the first half of the movie, and I raised the estimate to one ball, so that:

How to Train Your Dragon review : Any Nibbler Bezzubik in the shower!

"How to Train Your Dragon" – a fairy tale on one of the eternal themes of Scandinavian mythology. Knight against a terrible dragon! Robert Zemeckis, even on a topic such film shot ("Beowulf")! Only here … is this true? Here's Dean DeBLua and Chris Sanders and decided to prove me wrong. They confirmed the main role of the brutal (to date) of Hollywood pepper Gerard Butler, spun the whole story about friendship Vikings and dragons. Thus was born the cartoon "How to Train Your Dragon."

Scandinavian Eragon.

Perhaps this guy first, who learned to communicate and understand dragons. That's the secret of his success. He was the first of its kind, although much to look at. He was the first who managed to ride the dragon. He is – the protagonist of this tale. He and his dragon Bezzubik. Just the fact that Icking good heart. Icking the world's first dragon rider. By the way, this character even looks like Gerard Butler.

Fashion for a good cartoon.

Now Dream Works had taken off a lot of non-simple cartoons. Each of their product is different in some sense and morality, which the animators are trying to convey to the audience (often a child), so their animation literally raise and teach children. Not for nothing is the same "Top" was the best animated movie of the year. More and more cartoons Dream Works fall in the number of Top 250 movies, and it is very pleasing. Moreover, that "How to Train Your Dragon" really deserves it.

Landscapes, drawn by animators are so beautiful (especially when flying with Icking Bezzubikom) that even resemble the planet from the most cash and the beautiful film "Avatar."

And most good things in this cartoon that he does not teach violence, but rather friendship. This cartoon that the most important thing in human life – it's friendship, and even the Vikings (fans of the war) got it.

ps Any Nibbler Bezzubik in the shower!

How to Train Your Dragon review : Just emotion.

Oh, how long I do not ever contemplate such a beautiful and good cartoons! Probably ever since the popularity of The Lion King, she wept and be touched by what is happening on screen. This all-new, bright and unrealistic exciting! It can not even call a cartoon, a full-fledged movie.

To begin with, that cartoon first captured me with its unique atmosphere, colorful action and elegant music. Almost every second I was crying from emotion, so he, cartoon, seemed shrill. Movie is full of a variety of feelings, this sadness, this joy, this courage, and fear, and they all passed me, the viewer, seasoned with excellent music, which seemed to play on the strings of the soul.

Surprised me, and high detail images. Characters worked inside and out, and thanks to good voice acting, the feeling that all the characters live and wanted them to empathize with each second. Bezzubik and Icking – that they are true friends who feel and understand each other from the very first meeting. Dragons were very colorful and less as most of them represented. Separately, I want to note Bezzubika so cute it turned out!

Scenery here is simply indescribable, which are only flights to Icking Bezzubike when mchishsya with them through the clouds. And this ravine, where dwelt Night Fury … But these tall cliffs vozvyschayuschiesya up to the sky! Strikingly beautiful cartoon.

And, most importantly, the very meaning of the cartoon, the idea that dragons are not evil, and that just need to try to understand them, not to kill, as it did Icking, me as a viewer, was exposed. Icking decided to take no force, and intelligence. He did not want to kill. He just stayed himself. Amended the cartoon three times and is very sorry that did not leave it in the cinema, while thinking that there will be another 3D cartoon with yumorkom and straightforward story, but I was very wrong.

Definitely, my favorite cartoon is now.
