User Reviews

I was lucky to get to go to an advance showing of this movie tonight. Boy, was I surprised in what I got to see! Odd Life of Timothy Green is a rare gem out there for a clever storyline that can be funny, sad, and uplifting at the same time.

Without giving too much away, Jennifer Garner and Joel Edgerton play a couple who have tried to have a child unsucessfully until one night, a son appears....from the garden?!? The storyline is both magical and grounded in reality where we follow Timothy Green learn about others and life. This includes bullying, love, competition, and yes, even death. I found it to be a bit of a mix between two other old live action Disney movies: Polyanna and Mary Poppins.

The acting in this movie is superb, especially CJ Adams as the main character and Dianne Weist as the grumpy old lady everybody knows. Both of these actors were able to play their characters multi dimensional and I really got a laugh out of Weist's dour expression for most of the movie. The movie rounds out nicely with M. Emmet Walsh, David Morse, and (what?) Common.

The only gripe I had with the movie was I felt that it was a bit slow moving and could have been about a 30 minutes shorter, but it still was one of Disney's bests and one of the best movies I have seen this year.

Storyline

Riding across Manhattan in a stretch limo in order to get a haircut, a 28-year-old billionaire asset manager's day devolves into an odyssey with a cast of characters that start to tear his world apart.
'Cosmopolis', which I haven't read, is apparently a re-imaging of 'Ulysses' predicated on its main character, Eric Packer's, desire to travel by limo across New York City for a haircut, at the same time as his vast fortune, bet against the Chinese Yuan, contrary to all incredibly painstakingly detailed forecasts (the fallout of the pains taken is a plot point), free-falls. Packer's cross town limo ride is made an odyssey as the President is also in New York to make a speech, his presence received not only with death threats and the attendant red-alert security, diversions and traffic hell, but also a carnival of protesting anarchists who despise Eric Packer, and stretch limo riders generally, together with all they stand for. His own security detail picks up on a "credible threat" on his life. En route, Packer entertains various employees, early on hearing updates on how his stock is doing but never appearing greatly concerned either way, preferring to engage in mannered, alien-sounding conversations which amount, essentially, to small talk and in-house gossip, some bragging, commiseration over the death of his favourite rapper, and at one point a kind of lesson in techno-capitalism delivered by his Head of Theory (there's also a prostate examinatioCosmopolisn and some shagging thrown in there).

Cosmopolis

Rarely straying far from his limo or staying away long, COSMOPOLIS is decidedly a chamber piece. In spite of its New York setting I believe it was made entirely in Canada, possibly entirely on studio sets, or close enough. If you thought A DANGEROUS METHOD was insipid or too dialogue driven (I thought it was great), wait till you get a load of COSMOPOLIS! It opens on a close-up of a kerb-side limousine's grill, tracks right and glides along for two or three car lengths, rounds a trunk and approaches Packer – Robert Pattinson in a Gucci suit and black sunglasses – and his Head of Security loitering on the broad steps of a Wall Street building. He announces his intention of getting a haircut and it soon cuts to the interior of his limo, the body of which, he later reveals, he had lined with cork insulation against noise. He says it doesn't work but a striking stillness nevertheless does descend upon the film here, in only the second minute, leaving one with a sneaking sense that this will not be the violent, kinetic romp that's being sold in that thirty second teaser. It's a good thing one is given the opportunity to adjust one's expectations so soon because COSMOPOLIS is, in fact, so confined and sterile that Cronenberg's other films from the last ten years - all of them quite intimate in scale and no longer than a hundred minutes – start to assume, by contrast, a kind of grandeur. Howard Shore's score, for example, performed by the band Metric, seems to be channelling Moby at his least expressive. (The song that plays over the end credits is good though.)










Cosmopolis


How much you will take away from COSMOPOLIS, therefore, depends to a great extent on how compelling you find the De Lillian post-modernism emporium. Packer's driver and security team's attempts to plot a route across the chaotic city are paralleled with his number crunchers' efforts to decipher the patterns which reveal the incisive moves to make in the currency markets are paralleled with Joyce and the awesome detail that makes up the life of a single day which point to the infinite complexity of destiny in the modern world except that Masters of the Universe like Eric Packer conspire to hold a compulsory purchase order on everybody's future; the Cronenbergian flesh is here the flesh of capital and it subsumes everything and resistance is futile not to mention insincere and unoriginal. Monks set themselves on fire in Vietnam, like, over forty years ago. Think outside the box, people. Bo-ring! Millions of Arabs across Africa and the Middle East of course defy Packer's bland assertion that such a protest is immediately forgotten nowadays, but then again, what would he know anyway? Ultimately this guy-in-a-limo movie is exactly what it appears to be at face value: an out-of-touch-rich-guy movie. In its defence, it's more fun than MARGIN CALL. Ahem.

Action, drama; forget about it, but there's plenty of theory to go around. On the plus side, Packer's concluding back and forth with Paul Giammati's character (who gives a number of different names) is good – finally less blasé and uninflected than the other set pieces – and somehow I left theatre with a more positive than negative overall impression of the film. Cronenberg has changed course once again following his hugely successful foray into more mainstream drama/character studies in his last three films which all share the same final shot. Personally, I liked where he was at before and rank this as a categorically weaker effort, though it's still far from being an outright bad film.

Ice Age: Continental Drift

 Ice Age: Continental Drift   :      In this movie, Surat the squirrel is the cause for the continental drift, splitting the earth's land masses into the five continents America, Europe, Asia, Africa and Australia. This suggests that the the beginning of the movie as well as the three previous "Ice Age" movies took place on the continent Pangaea which existed 300 million years ago and started to split apart 200 million years ago. The ice age however occurred approximately 20,000 years ago, a time in which the five continents already existed.

Ice Age: Continental Drift


Synopsis:

        Ice Age Continental Drift : Join Manny, Diego, Sid, and Surat this summer as they brave the high seas & battle a ragtag group of pirates determined to stop them from getting home.

Manny, Diego, and Sid embark upon another adventure after their continent is set adrift. Using an iceberg as a ship, they encounter sea creatures and battle pirates as they explore a new world.

Storyline

       Ice Age: Continental Drift: Sc rat's  nutty pursuit of the cursed acorn, which he's been after since the dawn of time, has world-changing consequences - a continental cataclysm that triggers the greatest adventure of all for Manny, Diego and Sid. In the wake of these upheavals, Sid reunites with his cantankerous Granny, and the herd encounters a ragtag menagerie of seafaring pirates determined to stop them from returning home.

Goofs

Anachronisms: In this movie, Scrat the squirrel is the cause for the continental drift, splitting the earth's land masses into the five continents America, Europe, Aisa, Africa and Australia. This suggests that the the beginning of the movie as well as the three previous "Ice Age" movies took place on the continent Pangaea which existed 300 million years ago and started to split apart 200 million years ago. The ice age however occurred approximately 20,000 years ago, a time in which the five continents already existed.

it was fun, but not the best of the series

                     Ice Age: Continental Drift Ice Age: Continental Drift is funny, and i had fun watching it and looked forward to seeing what this weird herd is up to now.

It is the fourth installment of the Ice Age series and the seventh CG production of Blue Sky Studios and the first sequel not to be directed by Carlos Saldanha who will be directing RIO part 2.

What I love must about this flick is the introduction of a partner for Diego; a white tiger lady is added ladies and gentlemen. The movie also has the whole fun of the old clichés, which I seem not to be tired of seeing. It also showcases cool CG effect; I loved the water effect most.

The plot was educational (as long as you know it is bogus) due to Scrat's (Squirrel) hunt for acorns he triggers the break-up of the world continent into the continents as we know them today, which cause Manny to lose his family.

Manny, Diego, and Sid embark upon another adventure to find his family, after their continent is set adrift. Using an iceberg as a ship, they encounter sea creatures and battle pirates as they explore a new world, and learn why it is good to be part of a family herd, than being part of a group where one person leads and other follow.

Well, the new directors weren't that bad, as the movie did have some fun screenplays and events that you will be thrilled to see. As we watch this creatures move from the Ice Age to the present age the pictures tell stories that are kinda informative and entertaining.

Hey! I must have missed that geography class when they taught that Scrat the squirrel created the whole world.

Although this is not the best addition to the Ice Age series it was fun to watch. And the movie kinda opens doors to new additional sequels.

But I hope Blue Sky won't bother making any more.

But as morning approaches, and Chloe learns of Elliot's condition, the magic of the evening unravels, and they must together face the uncertainty of Elliot's future.

Falling Overnight

The delicate subject matter of this film is beautifully rendered by writer/director Conrad Jackson. The serious theme is there but the overall tone is one of hope, and the beauty of life wins out over its unpredictability.

Jackson's cinematography enables us to feel the passage of time differently, and he takes us on a journey through a young man's (potentially) last night with simple events that exemplify how precious life is.

The two main actors are endearingly naive, but with depth and complexity beyond their years. Oh yeah, and apparently it was filmed in 14 days - impressive!

Marketing

The Neighborhood Watch marketing campaign began on February 29, 2012, with the release of a teaser poster, trailer and the unveiling of the film's website, jointhewatch.com.[39] On March 27, 2012, it was reported that 20th Century Fox had the poster and trailer removed from Florida theaters in response to the increasing controversy concerning the shooting death of Trayvon Martin in Sanford, Florida by neighborhood watch captain George Zimmerman. The trailer featured Hill, imitating a gun with his hand to pretend to shoot at teenagers, while the poster featured a bullet-ridden, alien-themed neighborhood watch sign. According to insiders, Fox intended to move into the next phase of the marketing campaign as soon as possible, focusing on the film's science-fiction aspect, while replacing the previous posters with images of the cast.[40][41] Fox maintained that the July 27, 2012, release date would remain unchanged by the Martin case or the marketing changes.[42]
In a statement about the changes, Fox said: "We are very sensitive to the Trayvon Martin case, but our film is a broad alien-invasion comedy and bears absolutely no relation to the tragic events in Florida… these initial marketing materials were released before this incident ever came to light. The teaser materials were part of an early phase of our marketing and were never planned for long-term use."[40] The new alien-focused campaign began on May 4, 2012, with the release of a new trailer, coinciding with Fox changing the film's name to The Watch, to further distance the film from the Martin case.[26][1]

Trishna.Free Movie Downlod link

Synopsis

Trishna lives with her family in a village in Rajasthan, India's largest state. As the eldest daughter, she works in a nearby resort to help pay the bills. Jay is the wealthy son of a property developer. When he takes up managing a resort at his father's request, he meets Trishna at a dance and their fates cross. Jay finds every opportunity to win Trishna's affection and she accepts his efforts with shy curiosity. But when the two move to Mumbai and become a couple, Jay's deep family bond threatens the young lovers' bliss.

Trishna

Storyline


Based on Thomas Hardy's classic novel Tess of the D'Urbervilles, 'Trishna' tells the story of one woman whose life is destroyed by a combination of love and circumstances. Set in contemporary Rajasthan, Trishna (Freida Pinto) meets a wealthy young British businessman Jay Singh (Riz Ahmed) who has come to India to work in his father's hotel business. After an accident destroys her father's Jeep, Trishna goes to work for Jay, and they fall in love. But despite their feelings for each other, they cannot escape the conflicting pressures of a rural society which is changing rapidly through industrialisation, urbanisation and, above all, education. Trishna's tragedy is that she is torn between the traditions of her family life and the dreams and ambitions that her education has given her. 


A disappointment

There have been many modernisations of classic novels and plays, from Alfonso Cuaron's Great Expectations and Baz Luhrman's version of Romeo + Juliet. Now Thomas Hardy's Tess of the D'Urbervilles have been given a modern version thanks to Michael Winterbottom.

In Rajasthan Trishnais a young woman in rural Rajasthan who lives with her large family and meets a British traveller, Jay Singh (Riz Ahmed). When her father is badly injured and the family indebted, Jay offers Freida the her a job at his father's hotel in Jaipur. Soon Jay offers Freida the chance of an education, advancement and financial support for her family. But as they grow closer they start a on-off relationship and are continually drawn to each other.

Setting the updated version of Tess of the D'Urbervilles, it would not have worked in Modern Britain and India does have issues involving rural poverty, a massive class divide, splits between rich and poor and traditional social values in that nation. But I found Trishna to be a rather dull affair. It was boring from a story perspective, that it wanted to try and cram too much of the novel into the film, resulting with numerous montages showing the passing of time instead of showing events in detail. The visuals and the performances are bland, the cinematography and art direction neither has any real grit or realism nor a bright colourful visual. There are some good moments like a tender moment when Jay and Trishna are in bed and she reveals a secret and when the relationship when it gets darker. But at the same time I did not quite buy the relationship between the two, either as it was forbidden or that Ray is Trishna because for the most part it seem like Ray was good for her. Ahmed is a decent actor but I did not buy there was a darkness in his character early on. I put it more down to writing and direction then Ahmed himself. Pinto was okay but she has been better. She has let to find the right vehicle since Slumdog Millionaire.

Winterbottom's direction had a weird paradox, because of the need to cram so much that the film felt rushed but other times the film felt like it was dragging and stalling. The editing and pace was all over the place and there was no coincidence. He is much better then this.

Amit Trivedi and Shigeru Umebayashi did provide a very pretty soundtrack and score, helping provide for the Indian feel the film was going for.

Sadly Trishna was a disappointment and this is certainly not a repeat of Slumdog Millionaire.
