They meet up with another couple they run into on the trail and head for paradise. They get news of a grizzly murder on another island and wonder if they should turn back.

- G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra 2009 action movie ... Nanotechnology yes little tiny robots that can eat anything in their path, good guys , bad guys , lots of cool vehicles and massive lairs for them to perfect their training. This sounds like a 70’s James bond film but that’s what this movie offers us, a world of absolutes and money was no object gadgets. I’ve seen shows of the discovery channel were all this stuff is just a year s off in the future. Here the way the story starts there is this nanotechnology-based weapon capable of destroying an entire city. ...
- Orphan: movie review 2009 . Orphan is a horror film about a family that adopts a 9 year old girl into their family after Kate (Vera Farmiga) and John Coleman (Peter Sarsgaard) try to have a third child and fail. Esther (Isabelle Fuhrman) is the new addition to the family seems so nice, she has polished manners and like to paint. But, you guessed it there is a dark and sinister secret. After some so-called accidents and weird things start to happen. She gets kind of creepy and you all know how we love scary kids in movies, its been a theme that Hollywood has use for decades. ...
- Funny people: movie review Funny People is a comedy/drama about a stand-up comedian George Simmons (Adam Sandler) who is successful yet self-involved and has no real friends. He is diagnosed with a form of leukemia in the beginning of the film and takes to make life changes. He befriends Ira Wright (Seth Rogen) (real last name Weiner punch line of more than a few jokes in the movie) is an aspiring stand-up comedian who works at a deli to make money while he struggles to make it in stand up comedy. So together they go a series of performances and Ira gets to see George’s world of success and becomes his personal assistant. ...
- In the Loop : 2009 In the loop is a very funny British political satire, roughly based on the lead up to current situation in Iraq. The story of a low level minister who has a way of saying the wrong thing, leads him into the loins den, as he is quoted as saying accidentally that a proposed war in the Middle East is "unforeseeable" is that "unforeseeable" or was "in-foreseeable". This is a very funny film it’s like an R rated version of the west wing, but using the English approach to comedy. ...
- Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen The war between Autobots and Decepticons continues with Shia LaBeouf and Megan Fox retuning to help the automotive robots save the world from Evil. Sam Witwicky (Shia LaBeouf) heads off to college to continue a normal life, l he soon is caught up were the other movie left off , in an over the top battle of giant robots that can masquerade as regular automobiles .OK, well as you probably have guessed I am really late on this review because, I don’t like to write negative reviews and this movie was below pair and too long, about 20 minutes too long. In the first film 2007’s Transformers there was a innocence to the film, a sense that even older viewers were ok watching a film with a child like plot and this film with its bigger, longer and louder storyline lost in my opinion that whole vibe. Megan Fox looked like an angel and is almost upstaged by her new nemesis Isabel Lucas who plays yes you guessed it a Decepticon that can change shape and just happens to be a drop dead gorgeous blond. ...
- The Proposal: movie review year:2009 The Proposal starts as Andrew Paxton (Ryan Reynolds) is entering his office were he works as an editor’s assistant for Margaret Tate (Sandra Bullock) is the executive editor-in-chief of a book publishing company. She is his boss and when she is asked to leaves the country because of visa problems she Demands that Andrew marry her so she came stay in the country. With a deal to make him a full editor, publish his book and a warning from the INS, they head off to Alaska when Andrew is from to tell his family. The first thing I’d like to say is this movie is well cast, every actor in this film just seemed to me to right for the part. ...
- movie review The Taking of Pelham 123 The Taking of Pelham 1 2 3 Is a New thriller starring Denzel Washington and John Travolta directed by Tony Scott shot in the subways of New York City. The story starts as a man who calls himself "Ryder," (John Travolta) leads a band of thugs as they highjack a subway train and MTA dispatcher Walter Garber (Denzel Washington) who is Reluctantly forced to be the Lead negotiator. This Film is a remake of a 1974 movie of the same name and reworked to meet a new audience. With modern dialog and cell phones, laptop computers and of course the fact that 911 effects the city still, this film was a really fast pace based roughly on the old plot. There are some wild scenes in this movie of New York City as the Mayor, (James Gandolfini) agrees to pay a $10 million ransom and they try to get the money across the city to the subway station. If nothing else is worth the price of admission to see James Gandolfini, Tony Soprano as mayor of New York it’s so cool. Denzel Washington and John Travolta work wel together and their voices are what id cool to have to big name actors in a dialog driven story about two characters that interact over a radio on the subway car. This film was made for a younger audience and I think that those are ones that do go to the movies regularly. ...
- Land of the Lost movie review Land of the Lost is a 2009 comedy starring Will Ferrell based on a 1974 TV show about three adventurers that get caught in a time warp and end up in a strange new world, hence the name Land of the Lost. I really liked this movie for about the first half an hour and then it just lost me (no pun intended). I was a fan as a kid of this Saturday morning TV show and this movie does play on that with some almost adult humor, kind of like an ADULT SWIM show but a movie. Will Ferrell is just flat, with this movie riding on his back, the seemingly written as we got story just stops making sense. He is playing a cross between his character in his other films ELF and Blades of glory and it was working for me for a good part of this movie. In my review of last month’s release of Night at the Museum :Battle of the Smithsonian, I commented that Hank Azaria’s character Kahmunrah ” had some great lines that would have been very funny if he wasn’t delivering them” well Will Ferrell could have been fantastic in that role and it’s not a stretch to see Hank Azaria as Dr. Rick Marshall it would have worked… Anna Friel does a great of playing Holly Cantrell, she delivers some very awkward lines and is groped by a half man half monkey called Cha-Ka played by Jorma Taccone its one of the few places I laughed out loud.

 Battle of the mall cops… Paul Blart: Mall Cop vs. Observe and Report : Movie reviews So here my entry in the halls American literary excellence, my movie reviews of the Box office smack down brawl of two mall cop movies that are released back to back in the same year. Hey maybe I should write a screenplay about a chubby mall cop would wants to be a real cop and saves the hottest girl in the mall from the bad guys, on second thought it’s been done…twice. So the big question, which is funnier, which one of these movies was a better story, or should you see both films? These films both have a different angle, Paul Blart: Mall Cop was the written and targeted to a younger audience and the nonstop swearing of Seth Rogan in Observe and Report is allot heavier comedy and he spits out the f-word more than a drunken sailor on shore leave. Did the studios not know the one had a similar movie coming out? Well I have to be fair here is not like there isn’t a flood of espionage movies out about spies and International conspiracies shot in Europe. I really just wanted to make a funny head to head Photoshop picture of the two lead actors for the website. That’s why I’m writing this, no really if you glued these two movies together you would have a great movie, both have their moments and …not. After two hits with Zack and Miri Make a Promo and of course Knocked Up , Seth Rogan was on a roll , and Kevin James with his TV show King of queens was too on a high point in his career . So this is the question do two wrongs make a right? Well were two scenes in Observe and Report that were as creepy as the film Borat: Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan with Sasha Cohen wrestling the fat hairy man , and Paul Burt Mall cop had a few scenes that were as slow as last year’s film The Reader and just not funny… Read More
There is a scene were Seth Rogen as Ronnie Barnhardt is being interviewed by a television reporter about the problems they are having at his mall and he is pissed off because she gets his title wrong so he says “and I’m standing here with a doctor" now that was funny, but I was the only one in the theater that caught it and was laughing out loud. Paul Blart: Mall Cop character on his Segway (an electric scooter), was just silly and made me laugh at the beginning of this film, but his character gets old fast and the use of sugar in the a plot line is (to most of the unaware souls who have or are going to have diabetes) kind of wrong. Almost as wrong as the flasher saying “touch daddy’s Dic%$” this crossed some kind of invisible line with me, and I don’t think even someone like comedian Chris Rock would have gone there. So judging by the audience around me Paul Blart got the most laughs, but I think I the privacy of their home lots of people would laugh at Observe and Report's Ronnie Barnhardt and he does have his moments.  High points also include Anna Faris as Brandi she is really funny and Observe and Report's Ronnie Barnhardt drinking and doing a crazy dance at the local bar and ending up failing out the window. I was wondering why the best comedies are coming from England these days and these two films were the answer, America has become like, almost ...funny and I am hoping that a good new comedy will come out this year to prove me wrong.
