Dawn of the Planet of the Apes - Review

Image
After watching this film, I can say that the infamous line "Sequels are never as good as the original"  is not true... Starting in 2016, the wake of the  virus causes the collapse of human civilization. Ten years later, a middle aged Caesar now leads and governs a new generation of apes in a community located in the Muir Woods. Blue Eyes (son of Caesar) and Ash (son of Rocket) encounter a small party of armed survivors in the forest led by a man named Malcolm. In a panic, Carver, holding deep distrust for the apes, shoots and wounds Ash. Caesar decides against retaliation and orders the humans to leave. It is revealed a group of humans genetically immune to the virus have established a guarded safe-haven inside a semi-built tower in the heart of post-apocalyptic San Francisco. Caesar pre-emptively leads the apes to a face-to-face confrontation with the humans at the tower where he speaks and orders Malcolm, the safe-haven's co-founder, to never enter ape territo

Honest Trailer - Pokémon

I remember being a huge fan of Pokémon when I was a little kid...I had so many figures, the main videogames and even some films from them. But it has been a long time since I stopped watching/playing it (too many new creatures, it started to get a little boring) but it has been nice seeing how the guys from "Honest Trailers" have done this funny trailer about the first generation...the best one of all! Here it is! And also to forget to watch other of their stuff like these funny ones!!

Transcendence - Review

Image
Plot: Dr. Will Caster (Johnny Depp) is the foremost researcher in the field of Artificial Intelligence, working to create a sentient machine that combines the collective intelligence of everything ever known with the full range of human emotions. His highly controversial experiments have made him famous, but they have also made him the prime target of anti-technology extremists who will do whatever it takes to stop him. However, in their attempt to destroy Will, they inadvertently become the catalyst for him to succeed-to be a participant in his own transcendence. For his wife Evelyn (Rebecca Hall) and best friend Max Waters (Paul You'll see him almost the entire film in a screen... Bettany), both fellow researchers, the question is not if they can...but if they should. Their worst fears are realized as Will's thirst for knowledge evolves into a seemingly omnipresent quest for power, to what end is unknown. The only thing that is becoming terrifyingly clear is there may be

Doctor Who's New Trailer

Image
At last it's here! The official trailer for Season 8 of Doctor Who is here! And I have to say I'm very excited to see Peter Capaldi doing like it's going to be the best and most mysterious Doctor ever! Looks like old enemies are coming back as well as some friends from last seasons. And about the Doctor...it seems like the Tardis isn't going to change this time and I can see he still has the same sonic screwdriver from Matt Smith's Doctor or it looks a lot like. Also, and more obviously, this new incarnation looks and sounds more sinister talking about darkness and asking if he's a good man...very excited (again) to see what's coming!! Cannot wait until 23th August!!
