OSCAR Review!!!

Recently, one of the biggest award ceremony took place at the Kodak Theatre in Hollywood, Los Angeles which is the 82nd Academy Awards ceremony. The award presented by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, honors the best film of 2009. The actors Alec Baldwin and Steve Martin hosted the show. Here is a list of winners:

The best moment of the night goes to Ben Stiller when he dressed up as an avatar. Other than that, the hot Kriten Stewart probably had the best dress. Sarah Jessica Parker dress on the other hand was the worst. The shocker of the night goes to James Cameron (Avatar) when he lost to his exwife Kathryn Bigelow (The Hurt Locker) who became the first female director to win an Oscar. Well thats all from us. Thanks for reading!

No Country for Old Men


This is exceptionally a mix of 2 creative talents, the Coen brothers directing an Academy Award winning movie. An average Joe out for hunting came across a bunch of dead bodies, heroin and millions of cash. the man takes away the money only to find out a psychopath killer is on his trail along with the sheriff (Tommy Lee Jones). It certainly is a tensed and violent setting but also artistically tragic film. Consider this movie to one big coin toss. Heads or tales its your call. You've been calling it your whole life.

We all watch the Watchmen


This is not your average superhero movie. An ex-superhero was thrown through a glass window many stories from the ground. Was his murder somehow connected to the feared imminent nuclear holocaust between America and Russia? Come and find out in this thriller and quest for survival and freedom. People are expecting a batman or spiderman like superhero movie but dont be disappointed because the story is very unique in a political sense. It changes your concept of heroism and ideas of corruption in the governmental system. So widen your mind with this movie because it would certainly get you thinking about the world your living in.


Forrest Gump, A Classic


Life is like a box of chocolate. You never know what you get. Remember that quote. Its a good old classic. Taking away the academy awards, it has become one of the most recognizable film of all time.


Forrest Gump struggled through hardship in his childhood with his only best friend Jenny. In his tale, he has captured fame and fortune but Jenny, his one true love, eluded him.


In our opinion, there is no other movie that has touched the hearts of the audience like Forrest Gump. Tom Hanks delivers an astounding performance and teaches us everyday life's lesson. quite simply, its the great movie and will continue to inspire us to challenge ourselves and never give up in any situations

Cirque du Freak, Vampire assistant

Crepsley & Darren

When 2 best friends went to a freak show, an adventure was awaiting them. Mesmerized by the show and talents they went backstage to investigate the freaks. Darren stole a spider belonging to a vampire named Crepsley and were caught in a twist. Trouble was lurking as the spider bit Steve and Darren desperately had to save his best friend by becoming a half vampire. However, Steve became rebelious and joined the darkside with Mr Tiny. In the end, the 2 friends are now enemies and had to battle each other in a fight between good and evil.


Nowadays vampire movie is very popular among teenagers and this movie is a chance for the director to get close to his audience. This film was enjoyable and if you're looking for fun, then this may suit you.
