Wreck It, Wreck it Ralph!!

Just viewed one of the best animated movies I have ever seen. Wreck it Ralph is a movie that took its idea about what goes on behind the scenes in the arcade domain and sticks to it. Simply put, its a terrific idea brought fourth to its fullest potential. An they couldn't have done it without the amazing cast. John C Reilly was great as Ralph, he and Sarah Silverman were fabulous together. When they first meet it is hilarious. Jane Lynch is so brilliant as the army sergeant and Jack McBrayer as Fix it Felix was so funny, and cute. The movie also has some great video game and movie references. King Candy reminded me a lot of the Mad Hatter from Alice in Wonderland. There is also a really cool movie reference which I won't spoil but if you are a movie buff you'll find it hilarious, and it makes sense too. The movie is defiantly about finding one's self, a hero's journey. I loved all the characters. The animation was brilliant. Stay and sit through the whole credits, its like watching an animated art book on screen. The movie, its cast, even the idea was brilliant. Which reminds me, who did not love Who Framed Roger Rabbit? This movie is like that one in the way of how they got certain characters to appear on screen beside one another. Sonic appears in Wreck it Ralph, even characters from Street Fighter. Wreck It Ralph also had a twist I did not see coming. All over the place Wreck it Ralph provided the laughs, the heartache, and even the thrills of fighting off alien scum or winning a race. Wreck It Ralph is so far the best animated movie of 2013!!!

Here's my favourite clip from Roger Rabbit!!

COMING SOON TO REVIEWS ...


Now is Very Good


Just finished watching this and it is pretty good. While it is not as good as Joseph Gordon's Levitt's movie 50/50 it comes pretty damn close. There are a list of fantastic performances from Paddy Considine to Olivia Williams, Dakota Fanning and Jeremy Irvine. Dakota Fanning as a fantastic accent, she has the British tongue nailed down. Jeremy, who I haven't seen in any movies before, I consider him to be amazing, a very strong performance. I also caught two other actor surprise cameos, one was from the movie Attack the Block (Moses friend Dennis actor Franz Drameh). He plays school buddy towards Jeremy's character. The other is actress Kate Dickie. She plays Dakota's doctor in the movie and stared as Ford in the movie Prometheus. All together the cast, direction, the look and feel made this film quite the tear jerker.

A Silver Lining

I saw this movie last night and I thought it was fabulous. Jennifer Lawrence was fabulous as ever and Bradley Cooper gives a stellar performance. All the actors especially Chris Tucker and Robert De Niro are surprisingly refreshing in this. The movie is the romantic comedy for men. Especially since Jennifer Lawrence is such a looker and Bradley Cooper is the guy you just wanna hang out with. I loved this movie and I find myself liking David Russell's movies of late, this guy is an amazingly talented director.
