Movie Previews-Ratatouille, Live Free or Die Hard, Sicko

Posted in Movies at 2:00 pm by earl

This is a series I’m planning on doing on Mondays, but our blogs were down yesterday so I’ll do it today for this week. In this series I’ll preview the movies coming out this upcoming weekend. Enjoy.

Ratatouille-All Remy wants to do is become a chef, but there’s one tiny problem…he’s a rat. But with the help of his human friend who’s struggling in the kitchen they could possibly become the greatest chef in Paris! I was a fan of Cars and many other Pixar movies, and thanks to the wonderful voice acting by Patton Oswalt, I think Pixar is going to work it’s magic again with this one.

Live Free of Die Hard-What really is there to say about this movie? Officer Joh Mclaine (with the help of “The Mac Guy”) are off to save the world from terrorists and to save Mclaine’s daughter who has been kidnapped. Really, who needs a plot when you have crazy explosions, Mythbuster moments, and a helicopter being taken out by a car.

Sicko-This is another documentary behind the man Micheal Moore. In this little tale, we’re taking our minds off Al Gore’s little dream of the world flooding and focusing on people and their healthcare system. Since this is the man who made the highest-grossing documentary of all time, I think we can expect this one to throw some serious punches.

Ghost Rider

Posted in Movies at 1:46 pm by earl

(Grade: B) This movie was actually pretty good, although it’s not like Spiderman that blows your socks off, you know. In this Marvel adaptation it tells the story of a man named Johny Blaze, who, as a teen, sold his soul to the devil so that his father could live. But now as an adult, he must now work for satan as his “Ghost Rider”. Nicholas Cage does a pretty good job of acting, especially in his transformation scenes, and I must say bravo to the actor who played the old Ghost Rider, awesome job. Overall, this one may not go down in my favorites like Spiderman and the Fantastic Four, but for a character that doesn’t really appeal to everyone, they did a pretty good job.
