The Green Hornet is a story of a legendary hero created by George W. Trendle and Fran Striker. Starting from a Detroit radio play, the United States in 1936, developed into a popular franchise that spread from movie theaters in the 1940s, the 1960s television series to comics in the 1940s. The Green Hornet old version of the most famous is the TV series that diperanin Van Williams and Bruce Lee, all totaling 26 episodes.
Version of Green Hornet's latest film release in 2011 directed by Michel Gondry and written the screenplay Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg and starring the comedy actor Seth Rogen and Jay Chou players from asia. In the story the Green Hornet has not been able to provide fresh ideas for the audience let alone the basis of the Green hornet 2011 is a version of his radio in the era of 30's. Directed by Michel Gondry should have known that he could not make a good movie with a less good story material. There's not much he could do except make the best with mediocre material by optimizing the visual. But not much he could do with the story and the characters are actually a hindrance for him.
The Green Hornet is an action comedy that is too "cartoon" to be enjoyed more serious. For some people might be entertaining but for others just like the movie hero who was just passing just plain and easily forgotten.

Britt is obsessed with the story of action hero defender of truth is then asked Kato to continue such action.

Skyline - Movie Review
Skyline directed by Greg and Colin Strause (known as Brothers Strause) and starring Eric Balfour, Donald Faison, Scottie Thompson, Brittany Daniel. For the Brothers Strause itself is actually not a new name in the world of special effects Hollywood films. Their names are recorded have played a role in producing special effects for the series The X-Files (1995), The Nutty Professor (1996), Volcano (1997) and Titanic (1997).
They also have my own production company named Hydraulx Filmz who also participated in the manufacture of special effects in the movie The Day After Tomorrow (2004), 300 (2007), Avatar (2009) until the film to be released in 2011, Battle: Los Angeles - which Sony Pictures making furious after learning that the Strause Brothers were produced and released the Skyline with a similar storyline.
Actually Skyline categorized in terms of story movie which is quite disappointing for me. Although Skyline did not provide a challenging and new stories, but for its special effects simply provide entertainment. No wonder that this film uses a 10 million dollar budget but was not comparable with the outcome. So do not be surprised when I heard the disappointment of fellow film fans who have watched sciene fiction Skyline. It is not worth to watch, but do not expect to get a memorable movie experience.
Story:
The story began when Jarrod (Eric Balfour) and his girlfriend Elaine (Scottie Thompson) came to Los Angeles to attend a friend's birthday party, Terry (Donald Faison). After the party they do, the next morning a strange light over to Terry's apartment. Light blue is able to attract the attention of anyone who looked at him to follow the direction of the beam. Blinding light and be able to lift those who challenged him into the air and disappeared without a trace.
Jarrod who had stared at the light was nearly carried away if not immediately helped by Terry. Jarrod oddity in the entire body immediately after the incident arose. One by one the residents of Los Angeles is inhaled by the light which was derived from an aircraft carrier's huge unidentified creatures. The carrier also issued a fighter and a strange creature in charge of kidnap victims one by one.
The purpose of aliens turned out to take the human brain for their food. Can Jarrod and his friends to find a way to fight this invasion of aliens?
Skyline ending in this movie is one less thing I love. Strause Brothers might want to create a different ending as the movie District will but the results turned out to differ greatly between the second film. If curious about the ending you can find and watch this movie.

District 9 - Treatment of Human Racist Against Alien
District 9 actually includes an old film for release in August 2009. Interesting because the Distric 9 has the theme of a story that could be considered original and not in the movies before. Most Hollywood movies about aliens theme is "Alien Earth destroyer" or "Aliens are friendly with humans", while the depiction of aliens in the District 9 just does not lead to the second theme of the above but instead portrayed as a refugee from outer space who are homeless, hungry , and malnutrition, and still behave wildly.
District 9 movie was directed by Neill Blomkamp with podusernya Peter Jackson. Making Distric 9 arguably inadvertently, as it was originally Neill Blomkamp and Peter Jackson just wanted to make a movie adaptation of the Halo games but because of one thing and another for directing the Halo license and then canceled. Neill Blomkamp then develop the theme of the story of the short film Alive in Joburg which only lasted six minutes into the film District 9.
Blomkamp also invited Sharlto Copley, actor who played on Alive in Joburg, to be a major star in District 9. You could say making this movie because the director and gambling are relatively well-known stars as well as budget movie that is only in the range figure of 30 million USD, is usually a recipe movie failed. However, precisely District 9 well before its release has been getting rave reviews from critics and public attention since the publication of a mass at San Diego Comic Convention. And the result was a tremendous success for this underdog film.
Story:
Starting from a mysterious alien aircraft stops in the city of Johannesburg, the whole world was astonished. The shock turned into curiosity when the plane of the aliens are kept closed and no reaction from the aliens to human contact. When the government decided to forcibly open the plane they found that most of the aliens, later named the unorganized and not neglected. At the urging of the parties that promote the human rights of aliens are then removed and placed in a district in Johannesburg. It was not long before the district became the slums and was named District 9.
Fear and ignorance of the strange behavior of the aliens makes people despise and antipathy, to turn into the racist treatment until the term "Prawn" for such aliens. The existence of aliens on earth Johannesburg, the more it grew into the load and raises new problems. Not just a burden countries, but also the human race. Social unrest was widespread. When the prawn acted brutally, they loot even amok and damaging the facility residents.
After 20 years later a company called Multi-National United (MNU), at the urging of the community, wants to evict the abode of the prawn into a new place. Given the almost all prawn between primitive or rude, they were forced to approve or shot dead. Is Wikus Van De Merwe (Sharlto Copley), who was appointed field commander MNU, to evacuate the prawn into a location distant from the city center. Documenting the prawn starts. But, like any human being, not a few of those who refused to be moved. At such data collection body Wikus terinpeksi a black liquid from a small tube so that the prawn's body Wikus change and able to use the equipment and weapons aliens who previously could not be used by humans.
Because it Wikus then hunted by the sharing parties, ranging in areas Gang Distric 9 MNU even own. Trying to escape from the pursuit of Wikus actually met Prawn who wish to go from the earth and return to the planet itself. This meeting is change the perspective of the Prawn Wikus far.

Sucker Punch - Movie Review
When we see the trailer from Sucker Punch some time ago, then most definitely want to watch this movie. This is because its special effects are indeed extraordinary. Sucker Punch itself is directed by Zack Snyder previously known through the Dawn of the Dead (2004), 300 (2007), Watchmen (2009), Legend of the Guardians (2010). For Zack Snyder might Sucker Punch might feel more special because this is his first original movie adaptation which is not like previous movie.

That means Snyder along with 75 other visual effects expert takes the process a total of 8 years for the project Sucker Punch.
Sucker Punch is the excess of action and special effects are cool and admirable, but Sucker Punch has a shortage on the story and acting of the players, so do not expect to get more than grammar of cinematography, visual effects, fight choreography, musical background is very out plain cool.

Source Code itself is a program that allowed it to pass into the identity of another person within 8 minutes before the end of life.
With the shadow of the larger threat that will kill millions of people downtown Chicago, Colter tried to build a series of events 8 minutes over and over again, collecting clues, until he can solve the mystery and prevent the next threat.

X-Men: First Class
When first time I heard the title of First Class, I think that it will tell the early formation of the X-Men like the first film. It would however be interesting to learn that the plot to discuss the past Dr. Xavier and Magneto, who eventually became a close friend of the eternal enemy.
After the release of X-Men: The Last Stand should be recognized that Hollywood inevitably have to take the story from the beginning again, can be seen from the release of the movie X-Men Origins: Wolverine. X-Men First Class seems to be presented 20th CenturyFox without wanting to continue the success of the sequel to the prequel X-Men ever. However, if the X-Men: First Classs uccessfully revive hope Marvel Comics fans around the world?
With a longer duration of X-Men First Class when compared with the previous X-Men movie, directed by Mattew Vaughn manages to present this new success without directly related to the X-Men movie before. X-Men First Class worth watching because it presents another story that is rarely published, even in the X-Men comics themselves.
In general, X-Men First Class to get an assessment that does not disappoint from the audience of the film. Evidence, First Class to get report cards B + from CinemaScore. The story itself takes a background in the 1960's with the big issues the existence of nuclear-powered missile weapon that heats the United States and Cuban relations plus the Soviet Union
Main star who plays Charles Xavier is James McAvoy Scottish actor 31 years it has been the role in The Chronicles of Narnia (2005), The Last King of Scotland (2006), Atonement (2007), until Wanted (2008). Meanwhile, Magneto or Erik Lensherr where previously played by Michael Fassbender, German-Irish descent actor also appeared as a supporter in the 300 (2006), Inglourious Bastards (2009), until the Centurion (2010) .. Beyond name and Fassbender McAvoy, a number of non-players debut so involved in this film is Jennifer Lawrence, January Jones, Nicholas Hoult and Joe Kravitz. While the figure of antagonistic, just submitted to the senior actor Kevin Bacon.
