It’s not Darth Vader, neither Sauron! It’s your friendly Voldemort. The planning of his ressurection is in perfect timing with the Tri-Wizard tournament and for the week-ends top box office spot. The theater was packed this Saturday afternoon in a french speaking community, suspense reached it’s peak when we saw the WB sign announcing that the fourth installement of the Harry Potter franchise was unfolding. The Goblet of Fire is a magical item used to select the champions that will compete in the tournament. Potter’s name is unwillingly put in the tournament and has to “survive” three tasks. Problem is that he’s 3 years under-age to participate and that Voldemort’s mignons have an eye on him. You get to see the entire cast reunited in a very good movie, those who haven’t read the book will have a pleasent time discovering the plot. Everyone will be satisfied by the beautifull special effects. You’ll have a few laught, be transported out of your seat thanks to that well paced adventure. It’s a must see, this franchise is stable and a very realiable source of entertainment! Have fun watching Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire.

I’ll rate it 8/10, it’s much better than #1 and 2 but is quite even with the third movie.

If you’re looking for your typical war movie, you won’t find it in Jarhead! “Every War is Different. Every War is the Same”. This movie focuses on the smaller aspects of war, the soldiers themselves that most of the time are absorbed by the war itself. For once, I got to see how it might feel to be there. I had a similar feeling when I saw Band of Brothers. The story follow a young Marine that has to go fight in Kuwait, we get to see all the low blows that exist in that universe and how some people had to join the army. This movie is about the people, the good and stupid stuff they do. I enjoyed watching it, had a sad-controversial humor. This movie is not for the faint of heart, but still might be a good rent.

This year is a big year for Jake Gyllenhaal, main star of Jarhead, co-starring Jamie Foxx. It’s a total of three movies for that young actor that hasn’t made this many movies yet. Be sure to check it’s filmography on IMDB for more information.
