Here’s another brilliant video by the guys at How It Should Have Ended. I couldn’t imagine a better ending to the movie! ;-) Technorati Tags: How It Should Have Ended, Star Trek

Originally I hadn’t planned on watching this movie, but Percy Jackson & The Olympians: The Lightning Thief turned out to be the entertainment I needed on a night when I didn’t feel like thinking much. Percy Jackson is an ordinary teenager. He lives with his mom and her horrible boyfriend. He goes to school every day. [...]

All About Steve

Helmut — Tue, 16 Feb 2010 09:00:00 +0000

I don’t know why Sandra Bullock has received so much criticism for her acting in All About Steve. And at the same time she was nominated for an Oscar in the Best Actress category for her work in The Blind Side. I will admit that I’m a Bullock fan, but nonetheless I can’t see any [...]

Valentine’s Day: She loves me, she loves me not

Helmut — Sun, 14 Feb 2010 11:27:01 +0000

The cast in Valentine’s Day is phenomenal. Included are Jessica Alba, Jessica Biel, Bradley Cooper, Jamie Fox, Jennifer Garner, Topher Grace, Anne Hathaway, Ashton Kutcher, Queen Latifah, Taylor Lautner, George Lopez, Shirley MacLaine, Emma Roberts, Julia Roberts, and Taylor Swift. I don’t know how they got so many well-known actors and actresses to sign up [...]

Up in the Air: Clooney delivers again

Helmut — Sat, 13 Feb 2010 13:57:36 +0000

I heard about Up in the Air (directed by Jason Reitman) about 6 months ago, in the UK. Of course it was released there shortly after I was back in SA, so I had to wait a while longer for it to be released here. But it was worth the wait. Ryan Bingham (Played by George [...]

The Spy Next Door

Helmut — Fri, 12 Feb 2010 06:58:35 +0000

How hard is it, as a foreigner, to learn English over many years of acting in English movies? Apparently very. While Jackie Chan is great for action and combat scenes, he still can’t string together a sentence with each word pronounced correctly. I would have expected a little more. His latest Hollywood movie, The Spy Next [...]

Did you hear about the Morgans? No? Well, let me tell you.

Helmut — Mon, 25 Jan 2010 10:00:20 +0000

I’m coming to trust Marc Lawrence to write witty comedies time and time again. And each time it will star Hugh Grant. Did you hear about the Morgans (2009) was no exception. Hugh Grant plays a lawyer who’s separated from his wife (played by Sarah Jessica Parker) because he’s cheated on her. But he deeply [...]
