Blueprints For Floating Arm

Hellboy - The Golden Army


After Guillermo del Toro's Hellboy (2004) had caught a relatively bad start with me - three times What was needed to recognize the ultimately really good film - manages to continue Hellboy - The Golden Army (2008) a much better debut. This spins the story of the first album is consistently pursuing. Much of the story revolves around a young lucky of Hellboy and Liz. And this would include not already enough potential for conflict, they get it on the side also dealing with a megalomaniac prince, who with the help of the Golden Army the World domination has refrained.

It's nice to see that the Hellboy sequel is simply not fast on the , higher, stronger leaves principle. Rather, Guillermo del Toro reflects on the strengths that have always formed the first part prevail. Besides a lot of loud, colorful action that was implemented here again with a sure touch, the film impresses with its interesting characters. Especially comic book movies so often tend to ask their effects on the rest of the film. Del Toro creates an imbalance. Rather, he confronts Hellboy and his associates with very human and universal problems that they have to shoulder next to the struggle for the fate of the world. The characters have rough edges, do not act as a building block for comic characters. The "otherness" is also of high importance as a central dilemma. It succeeds the film a deeper level, far from optical shop to establish values. A plane that is focused on the acceptance of ideas. In this context, places the scene in which Hellboy animated by a fall on the road revealed to the world. No hiding game more. Hellboy's way to the eternal flight from the people - and from themselves - to put an end to demand and acceptance. Currently del Toro understands this like no other elements in modern cinema popcorn unite. (8 / 10)

V for Vendetta


revenge as the main subject is since the mid-20th Century, steadily growing in popularity with filmmakers and audiences. The same will be repaid in kind. Either due to the fact that the protagonist has done unforgivable ( Thriller - A ruthless film (1974), The Count of Monte Cristo (1975), Kill Bill Vol 1 +2 (2003 / 2004), Oldboy (2003)) or a person close to him ( The Virgin Spring (1960), the remake Last House on the Left (1972), play me the song of death (1968), Irreversible (2002), Sweeney Todd ( 2007)). The same on the Alan Moore comic book based V for Vendetta (2006) - belong to the first category - addresses this through plays in almost every conceivable variation theme and combines it with the dystopian world of George Orwell ( 1984 ) and Ray Bradbury (Fahrenheit 451 ).

James McTeigue V for Vendetta play in fascist Britain of the future. General insecurity and a totalitarian system of government to condemn the public voice to passivity. As the leader of the revolution it is composed of the masked V aims to liberate the oppressed public and to overthrow the tyrannical High Chancellor Adam Sutler. From past experiences Vs make the clearance a personal revenge scenario. Right in the middle Evey Hammond, who has to choose sides.


is drawn in the V for Vendetta image of society characterized by repression and total control by the state - as personified by the Grand Chancellor Sutler. As in the great literary models ( 1984, Fahrenheit 451 ) determines the reversal of the balance of power is happening. From the ruling People are dominated subjects. The director manages to make a relatively simple means to suppress tangible. Rigorously enforced and government restrictions, which Evey is initially almost a victim, accusing Vs video message to the British people and especially the dialogues between Chancellor Sutler and his advisors paint a clear picture. A presented in the context of oppression most impressive scene, the viewer, when all the pent-up energy of the population releases with a bang. The set up by Chancellor Sutler walls are demolished, as the hosts poured with Guy Fawkes masks in the streets of London. The revolution has begun. Sutler military resistance is flooded like stones on the beach. Visually highlight a dynamic, catalyzed by the masked stranger.


V for Vendetta manages to arouse the sympathy quickly for his protagonists. Films with a strong revenge motive usually have the best conditions. Which viewers find it especially hard to put themselves into a tormented soul, ponders retaliation? This psychological advantage here, however, does not at first. For McTeigue film Vs revenge motif revealed only relatively late. Rather, V wins at the start of eloquence, charm and robust way in the favor of the public. His underdog character in the fight against an overly powerful system provides the rest. To establish the faceless V as a strong identification figure, the film uses frequent parallels in content between it and other occupied positive figures. This builds on the film, for example, a number of striking similarities between V and Eveys colleague Gordon, who is fighting in his own way against the regime of the Grand Chancellor. Both characters merge. V loses in this way some of his incredible aura. He is tangible as man. His desire for revenge insistent. An intelligent train, where you position yourself as a spectator the question of whether the film would have worked without this stylistic device? Most likely. For Hugo Weaving has even in his Guy Fawkes mask more expressive power than many of his colleagues today without a face masking. Weaving or the role of the avenger clear how much effect can be achieved by careful employed gesture game.

McTeigue V for Vendetta sees itself as an entertainment movie with the right to encourage his audience to think. Under no circumstances should The comic adaptation will be seen as an action vehicle. Seen in this light, many viewers likely face a disappointment. The focus is on character development of the protagonists V and Evey. Action with a reliable sense of timing and the right angle is scattered in certain places. Strangely enough, many remember the setting and as many individual movements Vs to the comic book adaptation Blade (1998) of the British director Stephen Norrington colleagues. This is noted only as a side note. What V for Vendetta much more features is its value-neutral analysis of the motif of blood revenge - the Vendetta. V Evey it turns the question of the morality of his efforts. Those considered as his campaign until the last-fatal - consequences justified. The audience, however, must decide whether he can follow this opinion. Ready-made answers does not provide the movie. The ambivalence in Vs character appears here very clearly. The choice of means is very similar to his antagonists Sutler. V makes use of media propaganda, staged attacks. He takes Evey mental and physical torture, re-educate them to a life free of fear. All strictly on the method of the enemy. But where do we draw boundaries? Is it possible to achieve good, by applying the resources of the enemy? Issues worthy of discussion, no doubt are.


After the Wachowski brothers, their star using the Matrix trilogy (1999 & 2003) both had brought to shine as well as the subsequent lapse, they succeeded, as authors of V for Vendetta a large, unexpected litter. Away from verquasteten, pseudo philosophical effect storms, even at odd, ambivalent characters, well-measured action and a compelling story. A film for viewers who know a successful amalgamation of entertainment and depth estimate.

The search by: New Line's Freddy Krueger

Jackie Earle Haley is moving to Elm Street, signing to star as iconic killer Freddy Krueger in New Line and Platinum Dunes’ relaunch of “A Nightmare on Elm Street.”



Platinum Dunes partners Michael Bay, Brad Fuller and Andrew Form are producing with John Ricard co-producing. Samuel Bayer will direct from Wesley Strick’s script, with lensing set to begin next month in Chicago.

New Line decided last year to relaunch the movie series centered on the iconic killer, who haunts the dreams of teenagers and kills them in their sleep. Krueger was played by Robert Englund in the 1984 original, spawning nine films and two TV series in what was New Line’s most lucrative franchise until “The Lord of the Rings.”

The relaunch comes on the heels of New Line and Platinum Dunes’ rebirth of another horror franchise, “Friday the 13th,” which has grossed $65 million domestically since its launch on Friday, Feb. 13.

Haley starred in “Watchmen” as Rorshach and will next be seen alongside Leonardo DiCaprio in Phoenix Pictures “Shutter Island,” directed by Martin Scorsese.

Creep


The young Kate is imprisoned by bad luck over night in the London Underground. But she is not alone. A monster, which is responsible for the disappearance of many homeless people, has it in for them. Such can be the not very innovative story of the German / British co-production Creep (directed by Christopher Smith, 2004) can be summarized briefly. Franka Potente midst as Kate, the race here a little awkward for her life and stumble through some plot holes must. In doing so the audience Creep at least keep good that the technically solid film throughout, boasts an exciting layout exposure. The claustrophobic emptiness of the blockaded railway station and the still unidentified risk are placed in an appealing manner. The promising first impression but rapidly evaporates. By continuously extended screen time of the Creeps, the film loses much of its potential. The irrational, diffuse tension of the start into the background and can be compensated by increasingly bloody deposits. These are out of solid, useful but not much. If government pursues the intention of the movie at least heave a bit too far from the bottom of similar productions, other ways should have been followed. What remains is a concoction of Schedule F with many unresolved questions. Questions such as why no one cares disappear for a subway, in the seemingly countless homeless? Why it caught the night keeper of the London Underground's only now? Why Creep kills some of his victims on the spot, while others are first stored in a water cage for wasting away? And who ever the make-up has done wrong for the degenerates? All questions on which one would actually have no real answer. (04/10 points)

Why Does My Coccyx Hurt More On My My Period

Eden Lake


As in the short critique Ruins (2008) noted an increasing number recent examples in which the horror of holiday and leisure situations unfolds, increasingly. The British Eden Lake (2008) corresponds exactly to this pattern. Director James Watkins makes in his film, the young couple, Steve and Jenny leave for a weekend on the idyllic Eden Lake. Far away from everyday life looking after a couple of peaceful and romantic days. Neither of the two suspects, however, that a gang of juvenile delinquents, the area around the lake terrorized. Thus, from initial hostility and provocation quickly deadly serious.


The UK DVD cover headline The Best British Horror Film in Years. that are enjoying such statements with caution at all times, is known. But if Eden Lake actually the top of the British horror film is to be counted, one would like to know from the rest nothing. After a consistently good start that can even come up with a sympathetic protagonist, the quality noticeably flattened. What initially made even more hope for a creative horror trip turns out to be later than the first third sucked out as much Backwood Strip. Eden Lake modified in such a beaten path, that the spectators do not even usually give great effort in order to imagine the following Plotwendungen. Or how is it that found in all films of this genre the victims as they fled always persons who are either relatives or friends of the aggressors? It seems any event, a law set in stone to that also observed Eden Lake treudoof. An additional annoyance are so conspicuous plot holes and absurdities that stand out even more so when one does not feel particularly challenged as a viewer of plot. Since it does not help that you are happy "inspired" by colleagues as the French Genre Ils (2006),.

pleasant contrast is striking that Eden Lake relies not only on the explicit depiction of violence, but in this regard is moved in a relatively moderate tracks. Once or twice Watkins actually works with excitement and the feeling of terror. Or at least try. Regarding the final assessment is not easy. An ambivalent feeling is all that remains first decreased. Would be the simple, abrupt end for itself, there would not be split between them. But only the derivation of the final prepared for the genre friend quite a bit of colic. So everything that is left after the credits only a mediocre genre film that is far from exhausting its potential. (5 / 10 points)


PS: all the joys of the British lower class was recommended to the original language.

Buckstove Making Noise

Midnight Meat Train


After screening by Ryuhei Kitamura ( Versus ) newest facility will be one or the other big cities when entering the local U- train more than once worried look over her shoulder. The culprit is the film version Clive Barker's short story Midnight Meat Train from the books of blood . In this the chicken-like butcher Mahogany transformed the New York Metro in a slaughterhouse on wheels. By chance, it is the aspiring photographer Leon on the track. On the hunt for usable recording his debut in a prestigious gallery to cross the paths of the two for the first time then on, Leon delving deeper into research, and even gets his girlfriend in danger.


To Kitamura's Midnight Meat Train been trying a lot in advance. After 2007, a U.S. launch date was announced, Lions Gate lies immediately cancel again, no one really knew whether it would be something Midnight Meat Train . In late summer 2008, the film eventually was still a chance for an American theatrical release, and failed miserably. Both the shifted start date and the flop at the box office does not necessarily speak for the quality of the film. You might say. But the bad omen not true. Midnight Meat Train is a nasty little strip that consistently provides good entertainment. Screenwriter Jeff Buhler has inflated Barker's short story without any major difficulties to feature length. Unnecessary lengths of stay saves the viewer. For this he receives a dense, working atmosphere, the movie from beginning to end with. Reinforcing the positive impression is emphasized by the supercooled shots of the New York Metro. That became Midnight Meat Train despite its pleasant straight-out attitude is not really a shocker is hard to support many of Kitamura's comic-like production. Some scenes are moving but hard on the pain threshold, but are by too excessive splatter deposits and creatively used stylistic devices, such as some unusual Point-of-view settings, back into perspective. The cast is largely convincing. The only criticism is butcher Vinnie Jones. His imposing stature but seems tailor-made for the film, all in all, he has nevertheless an expressive little weak and colorless.

Midnight Meat Train is a film that will not take much to bring out its viewers an entertaining 90 minutes. He manages it very neat. A fact that Kitamura's film ever 80% of today's genre-colleagues has ahead. (8 / 10)
