In Time (2011)
6/10
Good movie, could have been better.
28 October 2011
The idea was really good. Time is money. But using such an unique idea to make Timberland run around shooting and stealing was cutting it close for me. I would have liked to see them go deeper on the concept that time is money. More drama and how society is build up around it.

The supporting actresses and actors were not helping the movie so much, especially Alex Pettyfer. The role really didn't suit him. But I got a Twiligt poster after the movie, which was nice until I saw it was Jacob.

But the movie is totally watchable and Timberland was surprisingly good in it.

6/10 - above average.

Thor (2011)
10/10
The God of Thunder
1 May 2011
The movie is entertaining from the beginning to the very end of it, filled with great acting from every actor on camera, to great dialogs. I even very much enjoyed Stellans performance. He truly did a great job and I can't wait to see more of him. Could also easily see Peter Stormare taking his role, both great actors.

This movie surprised me. Didn't think it was gonna be this good when I went to see it, but every detail amused me and my family very much. Only downside is that they apparently speak English in Asgard. Wished they had done something like they did in Avatar and Lord of the Rings, inventing their own language. Otherwise Thor is everything you need for a good movie, anytime.

10/10

Sanctum (2011)
8/10
Don't listen to the haters!
25 February 2011
It seems that lately hating is a popular thing that everyone is doing. useless, and a waste of time. But lets keep this short and simple.

This movie is amazing, pulls you in. The 3D really makes you feel like your inside there with them. suffocating, accelerating, exciting!

Great movie about a father and son relationship that develops as the journey goes on. A movie about survival and risking your life for other, seeing what people are willing to do for survival. A must see for film lovers!

Directing was great.

The acting was great.

The music was good.

The 3D completed it.

8/10 easily

The Tortured (2010)
4/10
Would you do?
8 December 2010
Warning: Spoilers
The story begins with a happy family, living their life as normal with their 6year old son, when he suddenly get's kidnapped by a psychopath in the lawn of their own home. The father unsuccessfully tries to follow the psychopath by car and later the cops find out that the kid, Benjamin has been killed. When the killer gets sentenced to 25years, the parents decides to kidnap john, the killer and get their revenge by torturing him.

In the beginning of the movie, they try hard to show that the parents truly are suffering from their loss, by using a lot of flashbacks. the only thing they got to show me, was that Erika Christensen was not the right choice for this movie. Her acting was not convincing, at least not for me.

When Elise convinces Craig to follow along with her plan of killing John, Craig proceeds by telling her it's not enough just to kill him. They have to torture him, make him suffer like their son Benjamin did. Which takes a long time to actually happen.

When they finally kidnap the killer, the torturing starts. The torturing wasn't to bad, looks painful, they even managed to make it sound painful. Feelt like I was being tortured there for a while.

Overall the movie was okay until the end, which kind of ruins the whole thing they had been building this whole time. And it all happens so fast that you might not understand what happens right away, and you figure out later that all their work was for nothing.

give it a 4/10 because it wasn't that bad, but not that good. It had a few good moments in it that makes you forget the boring ones for a while. I think it's still worth watching if you like this kinds of movies.

Im gonna keep this simple and short
8 December 2010
I had never heard this story before, and found it very interesting in a way that kept me wanting more to see of this film.This movie kept me entertained almost the whole time. has some boring moments like every movie, but still a fantastic movie to enjoy on a weekday. I recommend it to film lovers who wants something more then the usual crap Hollywood has been giving us lately. It's not an Oscar movie, but it in my opinion it deserve high points at IMDb.

Really enjoyed watching Ryan Gosling and Kirsten Dunst working together. they did a good job I think.

Summary: Good directing, Good acting, Good screenplay, Good film.

7/10

Skyline (2010)
6/10
Worth my time!
5 December 2010
Warning: Spoilers
Thought this movie would be really bad, have boring moments, nothing I haven't seen before. But this is something new. Finally the bad guys win, for once in an acceptable way. I really enjoyed watching this, and really don't get the haters. think it's just a thing these days to hate everything you see.

we just follow a gang for regular people, trying to survive an alien attack. they hide, try to run for it. they watch them, hoping to be saved. and for once, they're not the only once still alive, with no cellphone reception. they army fights back, we get to see an awesome battle between the military and the aliens. and the effects are really good, just that makes it worth watching.

The ending is acceptable for me, they're pushing it I think. But we don't know all the facts about these aliens, so can't really judge that part yet.

The acting is good and bad, in some places. that dialogs needed some working, but doesn't ruin the movie.

I recommend it for sci-fi lovers, and gives it a 6.5/10.
