Trailer for the Green Lantern

Coming Attractions

Unstoppable

Denzil Washington has this gift of picking great roles and this was no exception. Unstoppable jumps right in wasting no time getting into the story, which we all know. Him and his partner Pine (new to the job) are both train operators whose lives take an unexpected turn when the unmanned train comes speeding their way. Washington uses his veteran knowledge to try and stop the train, which could potentially lead to a disaster of mass proportions if it crashes into the most populated town in Pennsylvania. An adrenaline ride from start to finish, I was at the edge of my seat the whole time. FOUR JUICY MANGOES.

Morning Glory

McAdams can do no wrong in my eyes, she's one of my favourite actresses so of course I liked this movie. Ford and Keaton were also hilarious in roles as feuding anchors on a dying morning show. McAdams, a young producer is charged in reviving the Daybreak morning show, while doing so she finds love, a family and professional success. Yes very predictable, ending was abrupt, but still a good film. I give it 3 JUICY MANGOES.

Megamind

This was a surprising little gem, was not expecting it to be so good. It is one that adults and children can all enjoy. Ferrell, Fey, Pitt, and Hill were excellent in voicing their characters and the story was great. Megamind a super villain is thrown for a loop when he finally defeats his nemesis Metroman, and has no one to battle. What he comes up with to solve this dilemma was nothing short of disastrous especially when his plans don't turn out as expected. I give it FOUR JUICY MANGOES, definitely a feel good film.

Skyline

One word for this movie TRASH, don't even bother paying to see it, I wouldn't watch even if it was free. How this trash even got into theaters is beyond me, this is a straight to DVD type film. One moviegoer called it a waste of her 2hrs and I agree, I was tempted to leave, but that would have messed up my movie viewing schedule. Had me fooled, the special effect where the people were floating up to the sky lured me in. Let me not get started on the acting and the pointless storyline, horrible just plane ridiculous. This gets NO MANGOES from me.

RED

Not the greatest film, wasn't expecting it to be either, I just found that part where Willis jumps out the spinning car way too ridiculous to be true. While it did have an ensemble cast they did very little to save this movie. Willis's character is a retired CIA agent who finds himself being hunted by his own organization, and he seeks the help of his also retired friends to find out why. I guess the action junkies may love it, I however was not impressed. TWO JUICY MANGOES.

Due Date

I have say I had high hopes for this film, but was severely disappointed after seeing it. While Galifianakis (Hangover) was funny, Downey's character was stiff and not humorous. Most of the funny parts were shown in the previews and what was Jamie Foxx's purpose in this movie?. Galifianakis who's father had just died is traveling to LA to fulfill his dream of becoming an actor, while Downey is trying to get there in time for the birth of his first child. The two get kicked off their plane and decide to road-trip together here begins our movie. While it was entertaining at times, it was not the greatest, I give it Two and a half juicy mangoes.

For Colored Girls

Amazing movie, outstanding cast, brilliant performances a must see for everyone colored, non-colored, male and females. I have to say this is not a Tyler Perry film many seem to be confused, he only directed this movie. This was a play written in 1975 by Ntozake Shange original name 'For Colored Girls Who Considered Suicide When The Rainbow Is Not Enuf'. It was an off broadway play first, and there is a book and also TV film adaptation all of which I have to see after viewing the theatrical version. The movie basically describes the trials and triumphs of a group of African American women living in New York, whose lives while very different, are all intertwined. Very emotional, thought provoking, moving can't find enough adjectives to describe this film, I was in tears while watching. I might even go as far as saying this was the best movie of the year thus far. FIVE JUICY MANGOES

Paranormal Activity 2

There were alot of mixed reviews for this one, but I loved it. As I've said numerous times before, horror movies today are not scary, but Paranormal always manages to make me scream (yes I was yelling loudly). I don't wanna give away too much for those that haven't seen it. This is a predecessor for 1st, but it may be best to see the 1st before,or you might not quite get it (preferably on DVD and not the Netflix version). Obviously this time the producers were working with a bigger budget, the special effects were much better in this film. I give 4 juicy mangoes. (crossing my fingers for a part 3)
