Reviews

Jackie Chans latest movie has just hit our DVD stores shelves (well in Australia at least) and I thought it was about time I submitted my review. The story is very loosely based on Jules Verne's novel of the same name, it involves an eccentric inventor Phileas Fogg trying to race around the world and end up back in England within 80 days while the evil Lord Kelvin tries to make sure he does not win and become the head of the royal academy of science. Before you watch this movie there are a few things you should know, its made by Disney, so its going to be a movie that is aimed at all ages and very family friendly and it also got a PG rating so its a relatively pleasant movie.

Having always been a Jackie Chan fan I may be a little bias but I found this movie great fun, much more than I was expecting. All the backdrops are gorgeous, and everything has a fun feel about it, this is the kind of movie that is just purely for entertainment, very light very easy but all together a fun ride that you should want to see again. A lot of cameo appearances are in this movie and ad a whole lot to the feel of the movie and all the main actors play their parts very well. The DVD extras are not much and what should have been a highlight, the deleted scenes where ruined by the director talking over then and making then a waste of time.

I can not mention this enough- this movie is very lite, do not see this expecting a life changing experience and just let yourself be taken on the ride.

This movie deserves 8.6 out of 10 Now that is cheap to hire do yourself a favor and take a look, you know you want to.

Well 2005's first big budget comic book movie has arrived and we are only 12 days into the year. Elektra follows the adventures of Elektra after her untimely demise is DareDevil, She is a gun for hire who starts to get a sense of morality when she is contracted to kill 2 people she has befriended, the movie is all about her finding a reason for living and kicking some ass on the side.

After the major disappointment of Daredevil i was not expecting much from this, and that is what i got. The movie looked nice the acting was good but it was just all together dull nothing much happened at the start and it pretty much finished the same way. Not much more can be said about this movie because it is nothing like it was advertised it seems that its main target audience is 14 to 25 males who like to see Ms Garner taking off and putting on different tops, but if that's what you want you will have a ball otherwise don't bother.

4 out of 10 save your money and go see the incredibles for the 4th or 5th time
