You know what? It seems like no one can get enough of Milla Jovovich, seriously she is now tagged more then ever as a fighting great looking women. Her latest movie call Ultraviolet is a comic based movie. The story is not too complicated, she’s a kind of mercenary that has a change of heart and decides to wage her own destiny and fight against all the bad guys that want to destroy her race. I say we can’t get enough of her because with the recent release of Blu-ray titles she appears in The 5th Element and Resident Evil: Apocalypse. It’s simply a fun movie, nothing to win an Oscar but there is something about those action scene that you just love, whenever she is fighting 10 to 20 anonymous guards and slice them you see how fierceful she is. The movie also stars Cameron Bright as a boy with some kind of scientific value (cure of some sort) and is pretty much playing the same role he did in X-Men: The Last Stand. I know the movie had initial bad ratings and the script itself is REALLY light, meaning don’t bother with the logic of understanding much. There is a lot of CG (computer generated) elements and it sometimes tarnish the movie. At best it’s a fair rental and is from the same writer/producer then The Recruit (2003) and Equilibrium (2002).

You’ll love it or hate it but you’ll have something to talk about at least for a few days (hopefully not only the back shot of Milla).

So just in case you did follow all the buzz around the next Spiderman a teaser trailer has been released you can go and see it right now. I remember being all excited about the first movie and remember being extremely disappointed. I brought my hopes down for the second one and found it to be ok. Now seeing that trailer brings my hopes up and I wish for the best on this next installment starring Tobey McGuire as Spiderman. They will clearly introduce Venom, Sandman and the return of the Green Goblin giving Spiderman more then he could deal with. It will be released next year, meanwhile you can feast on Superman Returns that I’ll try to see over the week-end.

Many people nowadays know that without a firewall on their computers, they could be at serious risk. However, Firewall is also the title of a movie starring Harrison Ford. Now I clearly remember being interested by the initial trailer but was quickly reminded that there is a ton of movies in witch the family is held hostage in exchange of some fraud.

In this movie, Harrison Ford is truly back in the action scene with a good movie (unlike Hollywood Homicide witch was awful). The Firewall also stars Paul Bettany and Virginia Madsen and reminded me of those great times were Ford was a fugitive or President of the United States. Now I know that the critics in general hated the movie but I really liked it! There is a lot of action, fair script, glory, death and treachery! I had it lying in my collection since it came out on DVD but never got to watch it. If I had known I’d spend am hour and forty four minutes enjoying it I’d of seen it sooner, even in the theaters perhaps.

Of course the movie is not all good. We get to see an over-heroic average father who because a kind of vengeful fighter when it come to protect his family. The dialogue is not weak, but there are a few evil guys cliché and you can guess the ending quite easily. The characters are a bit transparent but that’s good, because whenever they do something out of character you are surprised and laugh out loud. I’ve seriously enjoyed it, and is worth a good rental. I give it 4 out of 5 (seriously!)
