Plot: In Los Angeles an ex-con, Isaiah Bone (Michael Jai White) takes the underground fighting world by storm. when he get out of jail he meets a fighting sponsor, Pinball (Dante Basco). That helps him to arrange fights. It's all becuase of a promise to a dead friend.


I think: A good fighting movie, eventhough Bone seems invincible. Nice fighting scenes.
But it's not much story.


Summary: Good fighting movie, with a lack of story. Nothing really special. but if you like fighting movies, you'll probably like this one to.

American pie The book of love

Imdb

Genre: Comedy

Director: John Putch
Writer: David H. Steinberg (writer)
Adam Herz (characters)


Plot: This movie takes palce ten years after the first American Pie movie. A virgin, Rob (Bug Hall), discover by accident "the Bible" in the school library at East Great Falls High. But unfortunately it's ruined and it's his fault. Rob and his friends, Nathan (Kevin M. Horton) and Lube (Brandon Hardesty), decide to rebuild it. So they call the maker of the bible, Mr. Levenstein (Eugene Levy), and ask for his help, so that they can finally get laid.


I think: Same plot as allways, some guys that only want to get laid. So nothing new there.
But this time they actually made it a little better than before when it almost only has been about showing breasts, don't worry breastlovers they still show breasts. But this time it actually feels like a movie instead of a series of breasts passing by.

Summary: An American pie movie, but closer related to the first movies than the later.

Director: Àlex Pastor

I can't actually explain much more without reveal to much of the story, watch the trailer it shows the most.


I think: One of the better Pandemic-movies I've seen. The acting was much better than I expected. Overall a good movie.

But Stan just have to drop some movies to the owners mother. On the way to her home they get into a lot of trouble, and it only gets worse. Everyone thinks that Stan is related to van Helsing and that he will save the town.


I think: Actually a lot better than most parody movies, the actors could act!
It was almost as good as the first scary movies. So if you like scary movie I think you'll like this.
It was the usual under-the-belt humor and jokes about a lot known horror movies.
But I was surprised that a Those dancing days song was in the movie.

Summary: A good parody, better than most. we're almost back to the "scary movie"-times.

See it with: The "guys", alone, anyone who like that kind of humor

One last thing (2005)

Imdb

Quote: "When you're born you cry and the world is happy. When you die the world cries and you are happy."

Genre: Drama

Director: Alex Steyermark


Plot: A young man, Dylan Jameison (Michael Angarano) gets a wish granted by "the united wish givers foundation" and he chage his wish in the last moment, so instead for wishing for a fishingtrip with a baseball player he wishes to spend a weekend with the supermodel Nikki Sinclaire (Sunny Mabrey). The movie is about him trying to fullfil his last wish and his struggle against the cancer.


I think: When I started this movie I thought that they would mix it up with bad jokes all the way since I never expect anyone to do a complete serious movie. But luckliy they didn't do that. They went the whole way, and I could really feel his struggle and his fear of dying even if he often didn't show it. It's great actors, great script and a great movie. I almost cried. But the end is kind of a cliché, but I can live with that.

Summary: A great and sad movie, recommended to anyone who can see a serious movie.

See it with: Friends, Family, the "girls", alone (if you think you can handle it, might be good to have someone to discuss it with.)

Thelma & Louise (1991)

IMDB

Trailer

Genre: Drama, Adventure, Thriller, Crime

Director: Ridley Scott

Writer: Callie Khouri

Plot: A henpecked housewife to an unappreachiating man joins her tough waitress-friend on a road trip. What starts as a innocent journey turns after an unfortunate happening, where they shoot a man that tries to rape one of them, suddenly into a nighmare. Instead of escaping their everyday life they now have to run from the police, to return to their homes becomes impossible and their friendship is set at stake.

I think: This is a “classic” movie about friendship between women. It is in some way a tragic but also a very beautiful story about how fast a life can be ruined forever. The first time I saw it I quickly became embroiled in the movie and the whole time I sat and wondered how it would end. This movie is by no means predictable.

Summary: A movie that is definitely worth seeing. It is made to be seen by both men and women, it includes both friendship, passion, a tiny bit of love and a lot of car chases.

See it with: "The girls", "the guys", your mother, alone.
