Week # 2 Journey to the Center of the Earth

Journey to the center of the earth is an older movie but this is one that fits in perfectly with the saying "oldies but goodies!'". This movie starts when one of the main characters father max discovers a way to the center of the earth and goes to check it out by himself. 10 years later his brother and son discover that max was a Vernian, someone who thinks that Jules Verns writing was true, so they go look for max. This movie shows the action and drama of how they get there, once they are there they find the sad tragedy that something happened to Max's father. When they get to the center they discover a whole new world and new things. Then the things get complicated on finding their way out but then finally they find this like cave or something that goes all the way out but some how they get out of there flying like on a shell or something like it.

This is our new review about the movie Carrie this movie is about a girl that is bullied in school but her life is just a horror and the knowledge that she has undefined powers that make her different from other kids. Kids in school make her life miserable and her mom sees them as sign of evil.  But the thing is that Carrie is an abused child, she feels ugly, because she feels ugly, she radiates a sense of worthlessness. Carrie wants to be  a normal girl but her mom makes her go in to a closet and pray for what she has said to her that happens in school. One day after school a guy asks her if shes going to prom with someone but she has no one to go with so the guy asks her to go with him to prom but there really planning on making fun of Carrie by making her be the queen of the dance when shes on stage they drop paint on her. That's when disaster starts Carrie starts to kill people and disastrous things.
                                                                  
                                                                                                                             

Week # 4 Jack Ryan Shadow Recruit

One of the movies that came out this year is Jack Ryan Shadow Recruit, personally one of my favorite movies it is about a man Jack Ryan who was a marine but while he was on a helicopter flying over  war his helicopter got hit by a missal. After he survived he spend time in a rehab center that's when Harper from the CIA talks to Jack Ryan and he recruits him jack first becomes one of Wall Street executives and all his friends and loved ones think he really is an executive, but he is really in listed in the CIA. He works as a Ph. D that look at data but when he finds out that Russians are planning on collapsing the U.S. Economy he tells Harper and they plan on how to stop that from happening while in the U.S. Alexander has started to plan how to get to the place of the bombing. When Jack finds where the terrorist attack is going to take place they go and try to stop Alexander from putting the bomb in Wall Street.

Week # 6 300 Rise of an Empire

 300 Rise of an Empire


300: Rise of an Empire was a little different from what I initially expected. Assumed it was a sequel. However, it is more of a companion movie - a different view point of the events in 300 and the events after and some events before.

I foun
d the story to be entertaining. The Persians are still attacking Greece, but this time we watch from the view point of Athenian Themistocles (Sullivan Stapleton) while the events of 300 unfold elsewhere. The backstory of some old and some new characters were interesting to watch. The events which take place after 300 were awesome and led to some great battle scenes.

And whilst 300 had plenty of fantastic battle scenes, Rise has some equally fantastic naval battle scenes. Ships wrecks, beheadings, one on ones, and battles were all awesome and entertaining. Watching Themistocles engage in naval tactics was quite fun to watch. The one on one (or multiple) combats were a bit better than the original. I found them rougher and just more fun to watch. Eva green as Artemisia was amazing. She was terrifying at times and great fun to watch.
