Since I retired from work in January 2005, watching movies in the cinema has been one of my favourite time-killers. This blog contains brief information and some comments of the movies I have seen.
Starring Tilda Swinton, James McAvoy, Jim Broadbent, Anna Popplewell, Georgie Henley, William Moseley, Skandar Keynes
Based on a classic novel by C.S. Lewis, this fun, warm, and bloodless film is definitely for children. Teenagers, mostly Harry Potter fans, may find it boring, too sweet and overlong. The most admired is the special effects and the pretty little Lucy, played by Georgie Henly.
King Kong is back. This new action-packed Jurassic Park version is thrilling, entertaining, humorous and heartbreaking. Peter Jackson does not let his fans down after The Lord of the Rings trilogy. This is perhaps the most enjoyable movie of this year. This 3-hour film is however too long. Some scenes need to be edited and even some characters might need to be deleted.
Starring Steve Carell, Catherine Keener, Paul Rudd
An amusing sex comedy about a 40-year-old guy who has never had sex with anybody. The plot is not so outrageous like in other sex comedy films. Apart from raunchy talks, the movie is warm and sweet.
