An Escape from Reality Too

Juggling some angry Russians, the British Mi5, his impossibly leggy wife and an international terrorist, debonair art dealer and part time rogue, Lord Charlie Mortdecai must traverse the globe armed only with his good looks and special charm in a race to recover a stolen painting rumored to contain the code to a lost bank account filled with Nazi gold. This comedy film tries to be a mix between Clouseau and Austin Powers but completely misses with one dimensional characters and a dull plot that tries to be entertaining and funny but it only archieves it in a couple of scenes. I haven't read the book but the plot is not interesting at all; a Goya paiting is stolen and a MI5 officer (played by a bored Ewan McGregor) contracts the services of Lord Mortdecai (played by the great Johnny Depp) to find the painting, he's known by his high knowledge of art but I still cannot see why the secret service would hire someone just for that simple reason.  Then we have his assistant (Paul ...

While the most anticipating movie of the year, Star Wars: The Force Awakens, just got its second and longest trailer and made a huge wave of praises, we also got the most anticipating trailer for the most anticipated film for next year. Batman vs Superman aka. Dawn of Justice, tell us the story of the events after "Man of Steel", while some people idolizes the man from Kripton, others see him as a fake god who only wants to become a legend. It seems one of those people is Bruce Wayne (also known as Batman, spoilers!). While we don't see the faces of Wonder Woman (what a shame...) and Aquaman in this trailer, we can see the movie will kick butts. It kinda reminds to the last Superman movie, while Henry Cavill did a good job as the man of steel and I can still see he was a great choice for the role, I'm still not so sure about Ben Affleck as the Dark Knight. The previous trilogy by Christopher Nolam left the standard very high so we'll have to wait... Watch the...

After a long time, the official trailer for the upcoming Star Wars film, "The Force Awakens", has been released. The film is coming out this next Christmas and I couldn't be more excited. I have been a huge fan of the franchise since I was a little kid, I remember watching "A New Hope" thinking it was the most amazing thing ever and wishing to become a Jedi sometime... We see a little more from the new Star Wars universe like the appearance of the new clone soldiers, R2-D2, a very small glimpse of who looks like Luke Skywalker (with his robotic arm coming back) and, the most surprising moment, the first appearance of Han Solo and Chewbacca after all these years. They look exactly the same but...older. The movie looks great, it may not become bigger than the original trilogy but I'm already sure it will be better than the prequels. J.J. Abrams is a talented director and I love what he did with Star Trek, I actually have to say "The Force Awakens...

Everybody knows Cinderella's plot, it has been done so many times in so many different ways that it doesn't surprise me they did another one.  After her father unexpectedly dies, young Ella finds herself at the mercy of her cruel stepmother and stepsisters, who reduce her to scullery maid.

After so many years, the game previously known as "Final Fantasy Agito XIII" has been released in the rest of the world, it has been selling in Japan for the last four years as a PSP game but now it upgraded as a HD Remastered Edition. The story focuses on Class Zero, a group of twelve students from the Vermillion Peristylium, a magical academy in the Dominion of Rubrum. One day, the Militesi Empire launches an assault on the other Crystal States of Orience, seeking to control their respective crystals. When Rubrum is attacked, Class Zero are called into action and become entangled in both the efforts to push back and defeat the forces of Militesi, and the secret behind the war and the existence of the crystals. The setting and presentation were inspired by historical documentaries, and the story itself was written to be darker than other Final Fantasy titles. It is, indeed, much darker than other titles. Remember when you kill, for example, a soldier in past games, he wo...
