The Matrix


                                                               
I saw a couple movies this week and now decided to post short written reviews of movies I have seen. I will also  do non vlogs for some recent movies but my full reviews of movies will be posted on my youtube (http://www.youtube.com/user/snoopybrown007?feature=mhee) and others on my IMDB (http://www.imdb.com/user/ur26110503/comments-expanded?start=0&order=alphahttp://www.imdb.com/user/ur26110503/comments-expanded?start=0&order=alpha) So let's begin with a movie I just saw recently. The Matrix

Neo, a computer hacker, learns from a group of  rebels about the true nature of his reality and his role in the war against its controllers, called agents.

The movie is most known for its action scenes and let me tell you, they are amazing. Seriously, I thought  The Bourne Ultimatum of Die Hard had great action scenes but I hadn't seen anything yet. The Matrix has some amazing fight scenes that it basicly sells the movie.

There is pretty good acting all around even from Keanu Reeves. The story is also pretty cool and the effects are amazing.

The greatest action film of all time just became my ninth favorite movie of all time. Seriously, watch it.

The Hunger Games




I loved the book The Hunger Games. I wouldn't say it's better then Harry Potter but defiantly better the 2 and 5. I was so hyped for this movie, I actually bought midnight premiere tickets. I thought it would never live up to the book and I thought I knew it certainly would never be better then the book, Fortunately, I was wrong on both accounts. This certainly surpasses Harry Potter 1,2,5,and 7 pt 1 in terms of movies and probobly on the same range of the others.

The Story is set in a future where the Capitol selects a boy and girl from the twelve districts to fight to the death on live television. When her sister, Prim, gets her name called Katniss Everdeen volunteers to take her younger sister's place for the latest match.

The Movie mad very minor changes to the book. The only one I really noticed was how she got the MockingJay pin. In the book, she got it from Madge Undersee, the mayor's daughter, in the movie she gets it in the market. Also, the Avox girl was missing.

I strongly encourage everyone to see this movie even if you haven't read the book. This is one of the best book adaptation I've ever seen, just as good a Harry Potter 3 and the Lord of the Rings movies. My rating :910
