DUE DATE

Synopsis
Desire Peter Highman (Robert Downey Jr.) may not be too grandiose, but sometimes even a simple desire to be something really complicated when executed. As a result, not only desire is so threatened not met but there may be innocent people who have become victims.

Peter just wanted to go home on time so that he could be beside his wife in childbirth later. Everything was taken into account. Peter was sure would get home before his wife gave birth. But there is one thing that is not accounted for Peter, the interference of others who make it are forced to travel overland rather than using the aircraft as planned Peter.

It's the act of Ethan Tremblay (Zach Galifianakis), Peter was forced to travel overland. Apparently, the original road trip sounded so smooth it even disastrous. Not so smooth and pleasant trip but Ethan and Peter could not even face the risk down to Los Angeles just in time. In fact, Peter's original desire was to get home before his wife gave birth.

Review
Last year, Todd Phillips' The Hangover directing a sequel would be made soon. For this year, Todd back through the film titled DUE DATE, starring Robert Downey Jr. and Zach Galifianakis. By theme, DUE DATE is still not too far from The Hangover although repetition of this theme was not too helpful performance DUE DATE.

Some call road movie. Whatever its name, film comedy, this one is trying to provoke laughter through the events that happened during the trip. When The Hangover trying to provoke laughter through the adventures of the men who are looking for their missing friend, this time Todd Phillips tries to dig a joke from two different characters who have to travel together.

In terms of acting, both Robert Downey Jr. and Zach Galifianakis are already tested, although equally it seems comedy is Zach region. But it does not matter here because Robert did not have to do silly like Zach. The character Peter was designed to be a partner Ethan. This difference is so despite the strength DUE DATE DUE DATE the same time also has some flaws. When compared with The Hangover that have a strong enough story plot, DUE DATE is actually weak on this side.

CENTURION

Synopsis:
Year 117 BC, the Roman empire has managed to conquer many regions. Even to Egypt and Spain were at that time to its knees under the Roman empire. Unfortunately, there is one obstacle that can not be accomplished gallant Roman army. There is one tribe in Scotland are still rebellious and no Roman army that conquered this tribe.

Quintus Dias (Michael Fassbender) is Centurion Roman troops who had escaped from the ambush troops Picts nation. All troops massacred Quintus was exhausted and just Centurion who managed to escape. Fortunately Quintus met the Roman army led by Titus Flavius Virilus (Dominic West).

Titus was actually assigned to quell the Picts and kill its leader. Unfortunately the mission is also not running well because soon after Titus' troops also face attacks Picts nation. This time there were only six people who survived, including Quintus Dias. Quintus is now no longer can be avoided. He must lead his men to rescue five people Titus before they could all go back to army headquarters.

Review:
While it may still not comparable with Gladiator or 300 but CENTURION also not be underestimated. The manuscript was slim but apparently it's not the purpose of Neil Marshall's film is set in history. As an entertainment, CENTURION remains an interesting film though here and there still exist that should be corrected.

As already mentioned, the script of this film is too thin. The flow of the story offered is very simple. Rounding out the legendary ninth Legion. There's nothing magical about this movie. The focal point of this movie is in fierce fighting that occurred at that time. Presumably, though still smelled of fiction, but Neil did not want to touch the magic business for the invisible tagging some other films that got made.

Neil is quite effective in capturing the image. Most of the image is taken from a distance so that the beautiful scenery of Scotland could be exposed well. Unfortunately this would make the cast did not seem so important anymore. Neil also did not get stuck making the actors and actresses look handsome and beautiful as they should be. CGI is not too fancy but still effective in the boundaries to make things look realistic.

In terms of acting, Michael Fassbender, Dominic West, and Olga Kurylenko certainly not a lot of problems but to be honest, the most interesting perhaps is that Olga's acting looks better than when he played as a Bond Girl. Chemistry between Michael Fassbender and Imogen Poots also look natural while Dominic West are also eligible to play Virilus. (KPL / rock) Genre: Action

SHANGHAI

Paul Soames (John Cusack) does not think that his coming to Shanghai this time would make it so involved in the affairs which were outside its reach. Paul just wanted to see his old friend who was in town that is now occupied by the Japanese government. Unfortunately Paul was too late. The friend he was looking for turned out to have died without any clear cause.

Paul was determined to uncover the mystery of the death of her best friend this. With her background as a spy, this investigation is not too difficult. The problem, it turns out these investigations even took him on a secret plan that is being done Japan.

There are allegations that the Japanese government plans to drop the Pearl Harbor and Paul have to look for evidence to confirm this allegation. At the same time, Paul Soames became involved in an affair with a local woman when Paul did not have much time left. Investigations will determine the fate of the world.

This film was originally titled SHANGHAI be filmed in China but at the last moment, the Chinese government decided to ban Mikael Håfström and his team go into this Bamboo Curtain country. Mikael should be forced to switch the set into Thailand. Although it must move to Thailand but Mikael apparently still capable of making this place look like Shanghai in the 1940s.

Indeed there is some awkwardness of this movie like Chow Yun-Fat who spoke English well and liked jazz music. Irrespective of the gaffe that, SHANGHAI quite enjoyable. Although referred to as the movie plays but in fact quite a lot of game action in a film released by The Weinstein Company this.

John Cusack might not be too convincing as a secret agent acting globally, but Cusack is still pretty good. Chow Yun Fat, on the other hand, it was not even having problems with his role as a mafia boss. Such roles also catapulted the name of Chow in the 1980's.

Even if there is a problem, perhaps only a matter of directing and a script that seems too forced. Like rice, this movie feels like the rice that is too long dimasak.Genre: Drama

PARANORMAL ACTIVITY 2

Synopsis
Since the robbery which happened to them, Kristi (Sprague Grayden) and Dan Rey (Brian Boland) decided to install CCTV cameras throughout their homes as well as to supervise their son who was a baby.

Unfortunately this effort seems to be too late because the evil forces that include the home of Dan and Kristi was already had his own plans. Looks like this evil plan has nothing to do with Hunter, the son of Dan and Kristi who was a baby.

Review
Not the first time made a successful movie sequel. It was all the studio would expect to rake in more dollars by exploiting the popularity of the first film. It did not matter if this sequel worth watching and it seems this is not happening at Paranormal Activity 2. The second section serves as a prequel that it fails to match Paranormal Activity reputation earned in the year 2007.

Repeating a concept with the same formula does not guarantee a success. As well as the first part, Paranormal Activity 2 is the formula-faux documentary that is usually powerful enough to involve the audience in the story plot is really just a fiction of the author manuscript. It may be that the audience was already bored with this trick. If you want to step back, it's been quite a lot of movies that 'pretend' to be a documentary like this.

If Paranormal Activity first horror movie that was so phenomenal, the second part is actually not too far from some other horror movie. Tricks using small surprises throughout the film that usually is identical to the horror film was also used here. Effective? Maybe, but not for long term. At the end of the movie, the little surprise effect is gone, although the ending of this movie is actually still an opportunity for the next sequel

DEVIL

Synopsis
They say life is full of surprises. Every time we are faced with choices and opportunities that never unexpected arrival. On the other hand, some say that no one else in this world happens for no apparent reason. Everything was arranged and planned. But what if that happens it's really unexpected. Like meeting the devil, for example.


As usual, life was normal and nothing strange. At least until one day there were five people trapped in the elevator and could not get out. All kinds of ways they've done but still there seemed no hope to get out of the elevator. Ben (Bokeem Woodbine), Jane Cowski (Jenny O'Hara), Vince (Geoffrey Arend), Tony (Logan Marshall-Green), and Sarah (Bojana Novakovic) did not know each other but fate brought them this time.

One by one of them later died without obvious cause. They suspect each other until only one person is left while he did not feel killing one of them. Who is actually responsible for this murder? Is it true that the devil himself coming down to kill them? Why have they chosen to be victims of the devil?


Review
In theory, this is indeed promising DEVIL smelling a supernatural thriller that will be gripping. Unfortunately, in execution, there are some weak points and lower the level of tension that should exist. It may be that it is not wrong but the basic idea is the idea of processing it into a form suitable for consumption.

Take a place in an elevator is the right choice. Narrow space and lack of room to move usually does lead to gripping effect. Somehow this time the trick did not seem too effective, but there are already some point, when the lights went out, which should make the situation more tense. When the lights went out was pretty tense situation but when the lights came back on then lost also the effect of trying to developed earlier.


Attempts to make the story flow a little convoluted for no predictable ending is also not exactly a success. The same plot has been frequently used by other films while acting the cast in this DEVIL is hardly satisfactory. So, what remains is only a B-Movie are suitable for consumption when I want to break away from the fatigue of daily activitie

THE SOCIAL NETWORK

Synopsis:
When Mark Zuckerberg (Jesse Eisenberg), creating up, have you ever imagined in the mind of this young man that he would become the youngest millionaire and what he created would become a phenomenon? Probably not, but certainly that's what really happened. And more certainly, it is not possible we could have 500 million friends without a single enemy.

One night in 2003, Mark Zuckerberg sat transfixed in front of his computer. In his mind raced with an idea that must soon realize it and not long later, the basic concept up is created, even though it was still not called up. No need to long for this concept to find its form among internet users, mainly students around the United States. In a short time, created what was to become a revolution in the way of communicating.

Six years later, Mark Zuckerberg already has 500 million friends on the site which he created and at the same time Mark also became the youngest millionaire at the time. Unfortunately, not everything can run smoothly. Mark Travel also tinged with personal problems and legal affairs. And as noted above, we may not have 500 million friends without a single enemy.

Review:
The idea of making his own film THE SOCIAL NETWORK is actually far from attractive. Although it can not be denied if up has become part of our lives all but to follow the story of the creation of these social networking sites themselves in the form of feature-length film about two hours may be not the ideal idea. In fact, the duo of David Fincher and Aaron Sorkin could prove that statement wrong.

Maybe all Facebook users want to know how the initial creation of this site without having to bother reading Wikipedia but then again, what exactly can be visualized without making it a boring spectacle? There's hardly because it follows the process of making social networking site itself could be a boring experience.

The key is the preparation of the script and directing. Aaron able to rewrite the book The Accidental Billionaires by Ben Mezrich into screenplay form that is easily digested without abandoning the essence of the original version of his own. THE SOCIAL NETWORK To call this a true story, perhaps a little difficult, because Mark Zuckerberg himself seemed fully agrees all the 'historical facts' are presented in this film, but despite it all, THE SOCIAL NETWORK is to provide a clear picture of how the actual beginning of the site who make this scene.

Based on a script that has this brilliant, David Fincher was so much easier to direct the actors in this film to reach the existing visualization dibenak this director. Good again, Jesse Eisenberg, Andrew Garfield, even Justin Timberlake has been able to turn the character they bring. The dialogue feels so alive, like I was watching people who do not are just acting. (

SALT

Before officially became a member of the CIA, Evelyn Salt (Angelina Jolie) has vowed to always be faithful to duty, honor and country and an oath is then a statement when all of a sudden there are people who claim that Evelyn is actually a Russian agent who has a mission to destroy America . Trapped by a conspiracy, there was no choice other than to make Evelyn's own struggle to clear his good name.

Orlov (Daniel Olbrychski) who are being questioned stated that there was a mission called Day X. This mission aims to kill the Russian president who is visiting the United States and who shall serve as the killer is Evelyn Salt. Results of analysis of brain wave state that Orlov honest, which means Salt is a double agent. Aware that in jeopardy, then Salt escape. At the same time, Orlov also managed to escape from the CIA and reinforce the notion that Salt is involved.

The next day, the Salt managed to enter the church that used to last respects to the late vice-president of the United States. At the same time the Russian President also attended the event. Unexpectedly, the Salt and then kill the president. Instead of fleeing, Salt instead surrendered but later escaped again. In an instant, Salt, initially was a fugitive CIA agent number one in the United States. Who was Evelyn Salt? Does his past while living in the Soviet Union is part of all this?

Everyone knows that Angelina Jolie is beautiful and it is inevitably one of the attractions of this movie. But make no mistake, not only that which would be exploited by Phillip Noyce from this film. SALT is the movie action but have a different touch with most action movies are crisp but never make full. From Kurt Wimmer wrote the script and Brian Helgeland, Phillip capable of turning it into a spectacle that intriguing but at the same tense because it presents game action.

In a way, from beginning to end, Angelina Jolie almost never stop to draw breath. Scene after scene is very tightly strung together as if not willing to lower the tension a bit. But when the eyes are pampered with a series of scenes earlier, there are still unanswered questions, "Who is the Salt?" That's why this film so interesting.

About acting, this is not a drama movie and did not we can not demand more. But globally, both Angelina, Liev Schreiber, and Chiwetel Ejiofor, playing quite beautiful. If anything that feels less relevant perhaps is the effort to raise again the issue of cold war that was already stale. Because it also 'touch' Middle East and then inserted

APPRENTICE

Merlin (James A. Stephens), the great wizard has three students: Balthazar Blake (Nicolas Cage), Maxim Horvath (Alfred Molina), and Veronica (Monica Bellucci). Unfortunately, Merlin is one of the students eventually voted in favor of Morgana le Fay (Alice Krige) and betray his teacher. Merlin died but before the last breath, this witch had told him at Balthazar. One day Merlin will appear offspring who will be the key to defeat Morgana.

When he fought against Morgana, Balthazar has locked the two witches in prison shaped doll. Maxim is also locked in it. Balthazar task now is to find descendants who will fight Morgana Merlin has unimaginable power.

Year of change but Balthazar is still waiting for Merlin's heir to the clan of this until one day he met a young man named Dave Stutler (Jay Baruchel who turned out to be the next generation of Merlin Unfortunately,. The meeting was also released from prison and now Maxim Balthazar have to wait until Dave and adult ready to inherit the magic Merlin.

Old themes in new technologies is one business that is often taken by the filmmakers. The proof, how many movies with similar themes and the proof is also a producer willing to finance such films. Sorcerer's Apprentice also offers old theme is wrapped in a visualization, realistic modern. Unfortunately, these efforts are not offset by other components which also formed the backbone of the film.

Created based on the poem by Goethe, written in 1797, lasted 110 minutes screenplay is done by many authors. There are at least seven names mentioned in the playwright and also could be what makes this film so that it's lost its way. The storyline of this film is no longer follow the path described modification of Goethe, but in fact the story did not make this movie so memorable.

Another problem is not the emergence of the atmosphere of 'tense' although it was reported that the fate of the world and all its contents will depend on the success of Balthazar and Dave duo. Dave, played by Jay Baruchel seems more interested in Becky Barnes, played by Teresa Palmer to be honest although there are key to the success of this film.

In the tradition of Disney movies, magic has always been a core problem and can not help but Dave age teens who are not interested to learn to do something magical as taught by Balthazar. As a result, chemistry between the characters played by Nicolas Cage and Jay Baruchel actually not even formed. Even if there is an interesting fact is Alfred Molina act which serves as Maxim Horvath. It seems, once again, Cage stuck on the wrong role despite the fact that the ability of this actor is more than enough.
