Do you believe in second love opportunity? It’s often said that our experiences give us knowledge and influence in our future decisions.According to experts,Christmas is a perfect time to analyse our love situation and it isn’t a right one Why not? to dream of a new one.The Holiday is a clear example over this fact,Iris and Amanda had gone through too much in their sentimental life,but Santa Claus will give them a new love.

The Holiday is a romantic film produced and directed by Nancy Meyers in 2006.This Christmas and comedy were filmed with a well-known cast such as Kate Winslet,Cameron Diaz,Jude Law and Jack Black.Needless to say that this type of film usually receives mixed reviews,some of them believed that this film is a leisurely feel good rom-com,yet there were reluctant pointed out that this Christmas movie is thoroughly preposterous,the utter bourgeois fantasy of a romantic comedy.Despite these strong negative opinions,The Holiday grossed over a huge worldwide.

Iris (Kate Winslet) is a pretty journalist who is still in love with her ex,despite she suffered several affairs during their married.Amanda Woods (Cameron Diaz) has a similar situation in her relationship.She is a movie producer and she finished her love due to her ex boyfriend's lies.Both exchange their residences in a home swap website due to they need to change thieir current lifes.There,not only will they recover over heartbreak,but will also find a new love illusion.Miles (Jack Black) and Grahan (Jude Law) will make them all the difference in their hearts.

JINGLE ALL THE WAY: It’s a turbo time

Can you imagine being to the role of Harold Langston? It’s often said that the presents at Christmas is the most important part for children.They usually send with huge passion their letters to Santa Claus or three wise men,yet children are looking forward to spending time with their parents in this warm time and it is true that the situation in our stress society is not easy.I’m sure that Harold would have wished to spend more time with his son in spite of looking for his son’s gift.

Jingle All the Way is an American family film.It was directed in 1996 by Brian Levant and it was also released by Fox company.This loving Christmas film initially received negative reviews,generally from Schwarzenegger haters.Besides,it is fair to point out that Fox was ordered to a compensation due to the fact it was supposed for stealing the idea.Finally,this film had a sequel in 2014.

Howard is a stress business man who is always worried over his work,he spends long hours in the office and his family,his wife and his son Jamie,is fully upset about that because he always promises them to change his timetable.The day before Christmas,Howard is involved in a huge traffic jam,he arrives very late at home.Once he gets home,his wife comments him that if Howard could buy the Jamie’s Christmas wish,an action figure of Turbo-Man which is a popular television superhero an it is so difficult to achieve at this time.Howard lies his wife saying that he had bought this toy.So,immediatelly,Howard goes to the shopping center in order to get it.There,he realizes that it is impossible to find it,it is out of stock in all malls.During this chaotic process,Howard figures out a rivalry with Myron Larabee (Sinbad),a father with the same ambition.In desperation due to his unforgivable neglect,he suffers fights,experiences with car thieves along with police persecutions.Maybe,Howard will keep his promise in future situations.

It’s crystal clear that not only is this film a way of entertaining,but also a comedy.For this last reason,it’s fair to point out that while there’s some genuine laughs and warm sentimentality to be had,it is vital to take into account that Brian Levant’s Jingle All the Way represents everything that’s bad with Christmas today concerning of consumerism.

….Always keep your promise if you want to keep your friends.

EDWARD SCISSORHANDS : Alone…in the dark.

 

The story of an uncommonly gentle man.It is often said that you should be as a society says,and when you are not this way you could feel isolated or bullied.Edward Scissorhands is a great example,which under no circumstances should you book by the cover and try to know the person deeply.Fortunately,All of us are uncommonly human with our special values.

Edward Scissorhands is an American fantasy film.It was directed by Tim Burton and Denise Di Novi in 1990.Its more relevant strong point is the role of Johnny Depp as an Edward Scissorhands.As it usually normal the decision was not an easy peasy due to the fact that Burton a well-known casting,such us Tom Cruise,Tom Hanks or Gary Oldman,needless to say that Deep was the best choice.This lovely movie received positive critics and economical benefits.Despite the film had several nominations at the most relevant International awards,it couldn’t get anyone but It fair point out that Edward Scissorhands must have achieved.

To begin with an endearing scene between an elderly woman and her granddaughter.There she tells the child about the story of Edward,who has scissor blades for hands.One day,Peg (Dianne Weist) tries to sell her cosmetic product in a dark mansion where Edward lives.Peg Boogs fells upset to realize that Edward is a humanoid who wasn’t finished by his inventor due to the fact he died.Edward lives alone and sad in this ghotic house,for this reason she decides to take him her home.Peg lives with her husband and her daughter Kim (Winona Rydar).Even though Kim initially feels afraid with Edward,he tries to have a nice relationship and to court her.Furthermore,The majority of neighbors are fascinated by Edward.Yet Esmeralda,an eccentric woman and Jim,Kim’s boyfriend are less receptive over Edward’ behavior.

To sum up,This unforgettable film is considered a classic,not only is it for Tim Burton’s fan,but also the most exigent criteria for filmmaking.I must make clear that were it not for this film,I wouldn’t have known the emotional and sensitive size of Tim Burton….besides,rumor has it that he conceived Edward Scissorhands from his childhood upbringing in suburban Burbank,California.

….Everything has beauty,but not everyone sees it.

WORLD WAR Z : Zombie attack

 

November is a Halloween time.For this reason it is a particularly enjoyable occasion was that it brought back memories of my own childhood experiences.I remember playing video games with my friends,I’d like to point out that zombie games were our favourite ones.Resident evil or Silent hill are always on mind mind.This is why when I watched World war Z I couldn’t avoid reminding these unforgettable video games.  

World War Z is an American action film.It was directed by Marc Forster,in 2013,which was based on the novel by Max Brooks in 2006.Needless to say that the role of the main character,Brat Pitt is the strong point.Brat Pitt received countless positive reviews over his performance.Besides,the film was a completely commercial success.Yet,there are some negative points to take into account,some critics pointed out that the anti-climax,outdated CGI along with the lack of faithfulness source material made a awful movie.Finally,I must make clear that a sequel was announced,althouth it was ended up cancelled.

Gerry Lane (Brad Pitt) an ex UN agent,and his family are in a crowded road in Philadelphia.,they become in panic when the city is overrun by zombies.Chaos,violence along with death spread.Gerry and his family try to escape from this horror scene to their apartment in New Jersey.Thierry Umutoni (an UN secretary-general and old friend of Gerry asks him to help and solve this crazy situation and analyzing the worldwide outbreaks.They believe that the virus could figure out with a vaccine,although it will be essential to know the origin of this zombie pandemic.The situation becomes worse,and zombies take the global control.Gerry Lane as a head person grab the bull by horns trying to save the world.

In a nutshell,it’s crystal clear that zombie movies are not a genre which have been created to watch in the family.Yet,it is an amazing plan to watch them with your friends,and why not? As I mentioned before looking back your teenagers memories.

…..Most people don’t believe something can happen until it already has.

THE MONEY PIT : Home sweet home!

 

It is often said that buying a house is the most transcendental decision which we will take during our life.It’s needless to say that you usually take this relevant decision with all your dreams and goals completely intact.In that moment your’re fully delighted,but it’s fair to point out that not all that glitters is gold when you start to live in your new home,about situation Walter and Anna have a master due to their chaotic experience story in ‘The money Pit’.

The Money Pit is an American comedy film.It was directed by Richard Benjamin in 1986.It’s crystal clear that its strong point is the well-known actor,Tom Hanks,although the role of Shelley Long is absolutely great.As a curiosity,the film was criticized due to the fact it is closely parallels of a Cary Grant film,it is called ‘Mr.Blandings builds his dream house’,it is true that there are some similarities.Finally,I’d rather comment that it was a Tv project in order to create a sitcom based on the film,however finally it was later put on hold.

Walter Fielding (Tom Hanks) and Anna Crowley (Shelley Long) are a pretty couple and they work in the music’s world,who live in a rented aparment.One day,they have to leave this fat because its owner,Anna’s ex-husband,Max (Alexader Gobunov) must come back to it.The couple finds a huge mansion in a lavish neighbourhood of Long Island but they attent to renovate it.However,the purchased house is a complete dissaster….the electricity doesn’t work,the chimney is broken,the tubs in the bathroom are collapsed,the plumbing is full of gunk,the fromt dood rips out of the wall…among other problems.The lovely couple tries to be blissful with this situation,although apart from these matters and a possible affair between Anna and Max make this situation almost untenable.

There is a thing that made ‘The money pit’ a particular occasion writing this review,it was that it brought back memories of my childhood experiences.I remembered my own excitement when the first time I watched this film with my mum,after that it was a must watching every year.Besides,it is true that I mentioned something about Tom Hanks in previous rewiews,but he is always on my mind when I talk over my 80s/90s favourite movies.                                                                     

 ....for eveyone who’s ever been deeply in love or deeply in dept.

FLASHDANCE : What a feeling

Take your passion and make it happen……this quote by The famous film ‘Flashdance’ is an universal true and I agree one hundred percent with it.It’s crystal clear that our dreams and goals are usually complex to achieve.Yet,as I mentioned in other reviews it is absolutely essential to have them and never give up.Jennifer Beals,in Flashdance,is a clear example about persistence,constant and efford.

Flashdance is an American dance film.The film is considered as a cult movie.It was released in 1983,and it was influenced on other 80s film such as Footloose or Purple Rain.I must make clear that in its beginnings was deeply criticism by some reviews professionals,due to the fact they believed that its whole plot signifying nothing.However,its box-office and its film poster was an absolutely iconic the day and the ages.Last but not least,its soundtrack arranged by Giorgio Moroder ‘What a feeling’…which won the Grammy award and the Academy Award.

Alex Owens (Jennifer Beals) lives in Pittsburgh with his dog.Despite her younger age,she lives a sensual dancer in a close bar and a metal worker.Although she dreams to become a great dancer.One night,the owner’s nightclub ,Nick Hurley (Michael Nouri) achieves an appoiment to Alex to dance in the Pittsburgh conservarory of dance,but as a compensantion he has negative porpuse over Alex,as a knowledge of Alex has a boyfriend.Alex struggle to achieve her dream,although her hummel past along with her lack of experience give her difficulties to get it.

Despite their low budgets,it’s a well-known fact that80s movies have a special light.In my personal this epoc is the most succesful,not only for its original plots but also its unforgettable character.For these reasons,Flashdance and especially Jennifer Beals are still an icon in today’s cinema.Futhermore,its final dance is probably on the top of the iceberg of cinema history.

……It’s better to leap and fall than never leap at all.

NOTTING HILL : When you say nothing at all

Can you imagine to being famous? It’s undeniable that everyone,at least once,had thought to become a popular person and being in the spotlight.Yet,not all that glitters is gold over these statuses,in fact,some famous claim that they can’t walk in the street or having a familiar dinner in a restaurant.For that reason,they usually try to conceal their identities and to go incognito.Now,I am wondered again,Would you exchange their lives?

Notting Hill is a romantic and comedy film.It was directed by Roger Michell in 1999,who has died recently.Although this so popular film involved a successful cast such as Rhys Ifans,Emma Chambers,Tim McInnerny,Gina McKee or Hugh Bonneville,Undoublty its strong point are Julia Roberts and Hugh Grant.Besides,its critics are facts to take into account,and the audience and the high grossing support it.Last but not least,Notting Hill was nominated for the Golden Globe Award in several points,and it also won a British Comedy Award and a Brit Award.

William Thacker (Hugh Grant) works in a bookstore in London,more especially in the pretty neighborhood of Nottinhg Hill.His life is not a fairytale given that his wife left him for another man and he lives in a curiously flat with a weird guy.One day,the well-known actress Anna Scoot (Julia Roberts) gets into the shop and Will completely falls in love with her.After that,they have a surprising meets in the street and he spills orange juice on her.As a compensation,he invites Anna to go to his house,finally Anna invites to him at the Ritz Hotel in order to attend her film premiere.Yet,what it seems to be a pretty and lovely love story,it is also a comedy and foolish relationship.

There is no question that this sort of films are absolutely perfect to have a great moment.I would recommend Notting hill,as I mentioned before,for their unforgettable cast.For Julia Roberts and Hugh Grant’s fans,this film is a must.As a final mentioned,I’d like to express that its Principal soundtrack ‘When you say nothing at all’ by Ronan Keating is an absolutely wonder.All things considered,Were I in your shoes,I would watch it next weekend….

After all,I’m just a girl,standing in front of a boy,asking him to love her.

MARLEY AND ME : A dog like no other

 

This review is dedicated to my best and loyal friend,Jeycko,which came my home 10 years ago to give me love and life.

A dog has no use for fancy cars,big homes,or designer clothes.A water log stick will do just fine.A dog doesn’t care if you are rich or poor,clever or dull,smart or dumb.Give him your heart and he’ll give you his.How many people can you say that about? How many people can you feel rare and pure and special? How many people can make you feel extraordinary?.

Marley and Me is an American comedy-drama film directed by David Frankey and Fabulously interpreted by Owen Wilson and Jennifer Aniston.This charming movie was released in the Christmas Day in 2008,and it got a record box office.It’s fair to point out that this film had a second part in 2011,and it is called Marley and Me:The Puppy years.Yet,beyond a doubt,the strong point of this film is Marley,a wonderful Labrador retriever.

At the outset,Newlywebs John (Owen Wilson) and Jenny Grogan (Jennifer Aniston) escape from his cold hometown to South Frorida.They just get married and their personal career are at their best moments, although they are thinking over to increase their family.John is supposed to be reject to have a baby,but he doesn’t contemplate it.His friend suggests him to adopt a dog and the couple tend to think that it is a great choice.Marley is a pretty Labrador retriever but he is a sort of naughty.Marley’s company is the perfect complement for this couple.Besides,John works as a journalist and he decides that writing over Marley’s misadventures could be the perfect topic which becames so popular.For that reason and other aspect,it is needless to say that Marley is a charming light in the John and Jenny’s life.

In essence,it seems to me that not only does this enthralling assemble do great,justice to the real story to adopt a dog and how he becomes a new family member,but also makes a funny moment watching it….There’s no such thing as a bad dog,just a bad owner.

THE TOY : The most outrageous gift

 

August is probably my favourite month,with December,not only is it my birthday but also my holidays.Yet,I must make clear,related to my birthday,I love receiving presents.Since I was a child,this day is pretty special and there are plenty of present which are in my deepest memorices.Nowadays,I could realize that children are not  happy with their present in comparison  with past times,they are completely unsatisfied .The Toy is a hilarious but clear example of that. 

The toy is an American film.It is directed by Richard Donn in 1982.This comedy film was absolutely dislike from critics.They believed that it was an overwhelming aversion in spite of the Richard Pryor career.However,’The Toy’ grossed a high value when it was released.I would like to point out that this movie was an adaptation on a French comedy.Regarding Pryor trayectory,he is well-known over some relevant hits like ‘See no evil,hear no evil’ or ‘Moving’.

After personal negative situations,Jack Brown (Richard Pryor) is looking for a job and recover his house.Finally,Jack ends up working to a ambitious and arrogant businessman U.S.Bates.Jack is absolutelly upset to have to work with ruthless department store owner but it is his last choice.One day,while Jack is working in the department store,Eric (Scott Schwartz) the selfish and spoiled son of the boss,informs his father’s right-hand man (Sydney Morehouse) that he wants to have Jack Brown as a present birthday.This fact is so humilianting to Jack becomes as Eric’s new ‘toy’.Sydney,despite human beings cannot be owner,tries to convince Jack to accept this offer and a compensation paying his house.Finally.it is crystal clear that it may be something weird but it surprensedly becomes a joyous friendship.

All in all,I highly recommend this 80s comedy and another Richard Pryor success,in my personal view,will be watched many generations to come due to its meaning lessons and to its amusing script…Why me?of all the stuff in the store,why did you pick me?.

THE CURIOUS CASE OF BENJAMIN BUTTON : You never know what’s coming for you.

 

Yesterday was my birthday…..I’m usually in two minds this day,one the one side,it is so special for me due to the fact I spend time with my whole family and I can celebrate that I have health and I have a lot of dreams and goal to get.Yet,not all that glitters is gold over my birthday,it is pretty clear that I’m older and if I have fears and concerns over my future,what’s more my family and me could go through relevant issue related to our age.All things considered,It’s fair to point out I’d like to be younger,not only bring my past experiences back and appearance,but also my parents’ health.To be honest,in general,I’m happy with my situation and under no circumstances I wouldn't be in the same situation than Benjamin Button.

The Curious Case of Benjamin Button is an American fantasy film.It is directed by David Fincher in 2008.Although this film is relatively recent,it is based on a short story of the same name by F.Scott Fitzgerald in 1922.It happens to be that this project had strong difficulties in order to get the rights,for that reason this film couldn’t see in the light in spite of it was sold in the mid-1980s.It’s crystal clear that Brad Pitt’s role is the key in this film.He received countless reviews from critics for his performance,besides the film was also a box office success and it received thirteen Academy nominations,the most of the Academy Awards history,which shows that The Curious Case of Benjamin Button was a huge blockbuster.

2005,Since Hurricane Katrina approached,Daisy Fuller (Cate Blanchett) was on her deathbed at a hospital,next to her it was her daughter.Daisy comments something about a child who was dead after World War I and that situation was so relevant due to the fact his elderly aspect.One night,almost one century before,a boy is born with an elderly appearance,naming him Benjamin (Brad Pitt).His life starts in the wrong way,walking with crutches and matters for his weird aspect.After that,he and Daisy become friends.During years,Benjamin changes his aspect and his aging backwards.Although he has all sorts of unusual situations over the course of his life,it is his relationship with Daisy,and the hope that they will come together at the right time,that drives Benjamin forward.

In essence,I believe that few directors offer the variety of pleasures that David Fincher has wonderfully reflected from a short story to with The Curious Case of Benjamin Button,which will likely be remembered as one of the most entertaining and charming movie for many generations to come.In fact,we could realize how the Academy operated…

….Our lives are defined by opportunities,even the ones we miss.

CHARIOTS OF FIRE : If I can’t run,I won’t run!

 

Nowadays,Tokio 2020 Olimpic Games are showing the greatest athletes.For me when this competition is coming,I looking forward to seeing the running time.Ten years ago (give or take),I started to go running and It's fair to point out that now it is my passion.Running,I have spent and spend amazing situations and  unforgettable feelings with this pastime and with my partners runners (especially with my best friend Ivan).For that reason,I love this discipline sport and what’s more it is so great that it is doesn’t matter your age,your speed,your beliefs or your social position because all of runners have the same possibilities to win.Chariots of fire is a clear and absolute example of this wonderful sport without a doubt whatsoever.

Chariots of Fire is a British drama film.It was directed by Hugh Hudson,Ben Cross and Ian Charleson in 1981.This historical film is based on a real story and its title is adapted into a William Blake’s poem that there is a famous line ‘Bring me my Chariot of fire’.Regard its recognition,it was nominated for seven Academy awards,getting four of them,but its most relevant and well known point is its electronic theme tune by Vangelis,in my view it is an authentic jewel.

Paris 1924 Olimpic Games,the glory is waiting for other athletes,but the way of the success wouldn’t be a pice of cake.5 years before,Harold Abrahams (Ben Cross) studies at the Cambridge University,there,despite he goes through negative experience due to the fact he is jaw,he loves this place and enjoys running competitions at the university.Eric Liddle (Ian Charlesson) is a Chinese missionary and famous runner who is looking for his competitive pursue in order to glorifying God.After years of hard training,they are selected to represent Great Britain to France for the Olympics.Both,with radical life experiences,but with the same goal,getting the gold medal….in their honour.

The performances and the script are no doubt the tip of the iceberg,but I’d highly recommend this movie for its priceless life lesson : our perseverance is the maker of change and the greatest of our lives equates to our faith in ourselves and our dreams….

They will sacrifice anything to achieve their goals…except their honor.

MRS.DOUBFIRE : She’ll rock your world!

 

Mrs.Doubfire tackles a trendy topic in our current society….divorce,although I must make clear in a genius and funny way.It’s crystal clear that in a separation,every one goes through,couple,children and family.Yet,fathers suffer too much when they could see their children.What’s more,the men position is really controversial over this matter.For that reason,Robin Williams is totally obliged to change his genre in order to spend more time with his children.

Mrs.Doubfire is an American comedy film.It was written by Randi Mayerm and directed by Chris Columbus in 1993.First of all,it is fair to point out that this charming film was based on the novel Alias Madame Doubfire by Anne Fine.This well-known movie was clearly won the Academy Award for Best.To be honest,this film involves amazing stars such as Sally Field,Pierce Brosnan,Harvey Fierstein or Robert Prostky.Yet,I much make clear that its strong point is Robin Williams,who was also a co-produced.Robin Williams played an unforgettable role,along with his roles in other classic films like Jumanji,dead poets society,hook or good will hunting among others,made him one of the best actors in cinema’s history.There,Williams was awarder a Golden Globe Award

To begin with Daniel Hillard (Robin Williams) is a voice actor and devoted father to his three children (Lydia,Chris and Natalie) although his wife Miranda (Sally Field) believes that Daniel has been an atrocious husband,for that she wants to get divorced.As a result,Daniel’s life becomes more and more dreadful due to the fact the court grants sole custody of the children to Miranda.Without steady job,a suitable residence and especially withouth his children make his future so dark.While Miranda is seeking a housekeeper,and Daniel knows about that and he calls Miranda over this offer.He uses his voice skills to achieve an interview.Daniel decides to change completely his appearance with his brother’s help,Frank,who works a a makeup artist,until he becomes a warm woman and he is called Mrs.Euphegenia Doudfire.Finally,Daniel or Mrs.Doubfire gets the job.Fortunately,he will be able to interact and live with his children even though he could be discovered.

In short,I believe that Mrs.Doubfire having taken the critic and the box office by storm in easily comprehensible given the enticing ensemble created by its stunning approach,plot,performance,make up and costume design.However,as I mentioned previously,its view about the role of the separated father is a fact to take into account.

…..She makes dinner,she does windows,she reads bedtime stories,she’s a blessing….in disguise

BACHELOR PARTY : Single for one more night

It’s crystal clear that getting married could be an emotional and unforgettable moment.Yet,there is a pre-wedding celebration which you will never able to forget,your bachelor party.First of all,I must make clear that this party is called different over men and women,a stag party is merely all men and hen night/party for females.Bachelor Party is shocking,shameless,sinful and wicked film although,sadly or fortunately,I’ve never been in any similar party.

Bachelor Party is an American comedy film which was directed by Neal Israel.It’s fair to point out that this sex comedy film received several negative reviews.Yet,some critics appreciated that it was likable,spontaneous and zany,the majority of them tend to think that Bachelor Party was vulgar and gratuitous.In my view,its starring was so peculiar and funny,Adrian Zmed,William Tapper,Tawny Kitaen and especially Tom Hanks make a great version of humor.Last but not least,twenty-four years later Bachelor Party,there was a sequel called Bachelor Party 2: The Last Temptation,to be honest I didn’t know about its existence.

Rick Gassko (Tom Hanks) and Debbie Thompson (Tawny Kitaen) decide to get married.Debbie’s parents are upset with this decision due to the fact Rick is a party animal and his friends are not the best influencer.However,Rick wants to settle down his life although his pays will throw an unforgettable bachelor party.In the same time,Debbie and the girls decide to throw another one,but both parties eventually collide,they will be absolutely different,Men party becomes a wild,drunken orgy at a hotel,despite Debbie know about that,she is concerned over Rick can remain faithful her.

Finally,it seems to me that Bachelor Party taking by storm for audience is just a natural reward for such a wondrous contribution to entertainment.its great scenes,its hilarious screenplay and the funny performances of the cast proved able to keep the movie rivetingly delighful for years,and to me that’s at very last praiseworthy!.

.....A man’s tradition,every women should know about that.

JUMANJI: Any last words? ....Jumanji

Nowadays,in comparison with my childhood habits,children hardly ever play with board games.They are looking forward to playing video games in their free time.In fact,it is often said that board games had been practically forgotten in our current society,although I must make clear that,in my childhood memories,they were just the tip of the iceberg of my past times.Games such as monopoly,risk or scrabble are unforgettable for our generation.However,when we watched the film Jumanji,this supernatural board game takeS it up a notch for us.

Jumanji is an American fantasy film directed by Joe Johnston in 1995.It is based on a children’s book by Chris Van Allsbusrg which was edited in 1981.It is absolutely clear that Robin Williams is essential in this film with the role of Alan Parish,although Tom Hanks,Arnorl Schwarzenegger or Bruce Willis among other stars were the first choice.As a curiosity,its special effects were trendy in that time and Stephen L.Price was one of the main parts in this project,for that Jumanji was dedicated to him due to the fact he died before the film’s release.Last but not least,there were two recent sequels,Jumanji:Welcome to the Jungle (2017) and Jumanji:The next level (2019) which were interpreted by Dwayne Johnson,The Rock.

1969,Alan Parish finds a game which was hidden over 100 years and brings at home in order to play with his friend,Sarah Whittle.The boy is the son of the owner of Sam’s shoe company and his father wants to attend to a boarding school against child,s opinion.After his arguments,Alan decides to run away when he will be an adult,this night Alan starts to play this mystery board game with Sarah.However,it isn’t the typical board game because the crystal balls move by themselves.Alan starts the game and receives a message which tells him to wait in a jungle until someone rolls a five or eight,and he is sucked into his game.After 26 years,Judy and Peter Stepherd move to the Parish mansion.Accidentally,they find the board game and they continue with the play.....and the jungle,its wild animals along with the disappeared Alan Parish and the adult Sarah follow the sound of tribal drumbeats of Jumanji.

The performances and the script were no doubt off the scale ,but I’d highly recommend this movie for its priceless life lesson about Robin Williams : this great actor not only brings us emotional and funny roles during his successful career,but also worderful behaviours helping people in his personal life.Yet,his dramatic ending will always be in our minds. 

.......Afraid? You don’t know even know,what afrais is.

BOHEMIAN RHAPSODY : The show must go on

First of all,I’d like to thanks to my team,Atletico de Madrid,for winning the Spanish League,We are the Champions!.By the way,we are the champions is one of the most famous songs of Queen. In this hummel review,I would rather give a tribute to this unforgettable band which along with his controversial but unmatched singer,Freddy Mercury,they will be in our hearts forever.The film Bohemian Rhapsody is an amazing expression of their story,without a doubt whatsoever.

Bohemian Rhapsody is a biographical and musical film that was directed by Bryan Singer.Although this project was announced in 2010 by Sacha Baron Cohen in Mercury’role, finally it was concluded in January 2018 with Ramy Malek in this role.I must make clear that as whatever biographical film received mixed reviews,on the one hand the musical scenes and Malek’s performances were exalted but at the other end of the spectrum the portrayal of Mercury’s sexuality and the other band members’ life was highly criticized.Furthermore,this absolutely great film achieved four Academy Awards (best actor-Malek,best sound mixed,best sound and film editing apart from countless international awards.The role of Freddy Mercury was fabulously interpreted by Rami Malek,who has several curiosities during this film,he went through a panic attack during the casting due to it was in front of the some band members.Besides,he needed to use a dental prosthesis in his scenes and finally he met his current girlfriend (Lucy Boynton) during the filming.

1970,Farrokh Bulsara (Rami Malek) works as a baggage handler at the Airport.Farrokh usually goes to a pub to see the local band Smile.One night,after a negative show of Smile,he asks for this band to have the chance of being his soloist.This night,also meeting Mary Austin (Lucy Boynton) who will be essential in his personal and sentimental life.After this night,Farrokh Bulsara will be Freddy Mercury and with Brian May (Gwilym Lee),Roger Taylor (Bem Hardy) and John Deacon (Joseph Mazzello),the rest of the Queen band,will write in gold letters in music history.Thus,not all that glitters is gold into this wonderful band,tensions and Freddi’s relationship with the band suffer around their career,but nothing could avoid this unforgetable band has a cheerful ending.

In conclusion,I absolutely recommend watching Bohemian Rhapsody because being having watched every musical it’s worth,I can say without hesitation that it’s one of the best show that I’ve ever seen.Although,the film also contains a number of historical inaccuracies,for Queen’s lovers Bohemian Rhapsody is a must.

.....The only thing more extraordinary than their music is his story.

What do you make of Eurovision? Needless to say that this famous song contest is absolutely relevant in the music world.Besides,I must point out that not only is usually this topic controversial,but also very broad.Many people claim that Eurovision is clearly manipulated and some countries will never win it back,among other Spain.Yet,it is also true that it is an amazing opportunity for musicians to be in the spotlight or boosting their careers,The Fire Saga is a clear example of that.

Eurovision Song Contest:The Story of Fire Saga is an American musical film.It is originally directed by David Dobkin in 2020.This film was released by Netflix on June,2020 although it was initially announced one month before but it wasn’t possible due to the Covid pandemic.I must make clear that this film was greatly attached by Eurovision fans,and it was the top-streamed item on Netflix in its first weekend.Last but not least,its soundtrack is one of the most relevant points,for instance,its song ‘Husavik’ received a nomination at the Academy Awards.

Lars (Will Ferrell) and Sigrit (Rachel McAdams) are Icelandic amateur singer that they have been always Eurovision fans and why not? Getting their dream,they will participate in this context one day.They are best friends since childhood,and their music passion ends up creating the band Fire Saga and playing every night in a local pub of Husavik.One day,as a group of consequences,they are given the change their country at the Eurovision.During the hearing,they go through several unexpected situations and they have a chaotic performance.After this play,all the finalists are invited to a boat party,but the couple decline the offer because they feel upset for their disastrous performance.’Sadly’ the board suffers an explosion and everyone death.After that,Lars and Sigrit are the unique representation of Iceland in Eurovision.There,they will meet new famous people,achieve their dream and mainly change their old friendship to a warm love.

For me,The story of Fire Saga is a crazy and fun movie that doesn’t take itself too seriously,but still with some nice messages,great music,and shows how events can bring our world together in a creative and peaceful way yet we can still laugh at our differences,I have watched it many times and after it leaves you with a great feeling inside.In a nutshell,for Eurovision lovers this film is a must.

…Play ‘Ja Ja Ding Dong’.

FIRST BLOOD : John Rambo

 

As far as I’m concerned,I love this film....it’s crystal clear that First Blood and Sylvester Stallone have hard critics and negative reviews,but it’s fair to point out that they are on tip of the iceberg of our cinema memories.In my case,both are absolutely unforgettable and they make the most relevant aim of making a film,have a nice moment and entertain the watching audience,without a doubt whatsoever.

This action film was directed by Ted Kotcheff in 1982.Yet,I must make clear that not only was the main character Sylvester Stallone,but also co-writter this movie.The facts speak for themselves with this film,despite its mixed criticisms,this film achieved an enourmous success,in its box office and a record of tickets sold in China.First Blood was based on a novel of the same name by David Morrell,ten years before.This film has been,until now,five sequels (all of which were co-written by and starred Stallone) with little success.A huge variety of comics,videogames and animated series are another relevant point.

Seven years later Vietnam War,John Rambo an ex-war comrade of this war,spent a difficult situation after knowing his friend goes through cancer and he is not adapted to a real life.Rambo ends up into a small town in Washington.There,he wanders around this village,but the town’s Sheriff Will Teasle (Brian Dennehy) believes that the best place for Rambo is inside the jail.Yet,He runs away to the forest and he tries to survive out of the civilization.The state police calls to Coronal Trautman,Rambo’s mentor and former commanding officer,in order to help them to capture the Wietnam warrior and he confirms that Rambo is an expert at guerrilla warfare and survival,besides he received the Medal of Honor and he never gives up.

All in all,I highly recommend this great action film - amazingly acted,written and directed,stands the test of the time and it is unanimously deemed a brilliant movie for Sylvester Stallone lovers.

......This time he’s fighting for his life.
