Maleficent (2014) An excellent adaptation

 Every true fan of the original Sleeping Beauty (1959) was skeptical about this and how much it had to deviate from the actual movie, and as more of the movie was revealed, it was only proving to be another female empowerment, victimized villain kind of a movie. But I'm glad I was wrong, for I'm sure only by watching the whole movie can we truly appreciate and understand the very convincing back story and development the character was subject to. Of course with very liberal changes to the original plot, the key elements that you'd look for are intact. Need I mention the perfect casting of Angelina Jolie, Maleficent truly comes to life in full form by Angelina's stunning skills and presence. A twist that's not cliché, sentiments that are deep, humor that's ever so natural and action that always keeps you at the edge of your seat! Maleficent in this movie is not exactly as we know of her from the few minutes we got to see her in the original movie, but let me tell you she's every bit deliciously evil. It was amusing to see Angelina play a role that requires a lot of nuances to pull of this character with a lot of depth as opposed to the one-dimensional character from the movie. Never letting off the grip, she carried the movie on her shoulders. Nothing to take away from the beauty of the rest of the movie which takes breath with excellent direction and visual effects that will truly transport you to another world, and the amazing work by all the 'supporting' actors. Yes, the other characters weren't as fleshed out as Maleficent, but I see that as good thing, given the title and theme. A spectacular balance. I'd also like to bring light on the enchanting score, thanks to James Newton Howard, this maestro is underrated.
A comprehensive movie, there's a little something for audiences of all ages, truly a masterpiece.

Justice League: Throne of Atlantis - Interesting history catch

 "Son of Batman" & "Batman: Assault on Arkham" director Ethan Spaulding stages plenty of action in this Aquaman origin opus. Mysterious forces sink a U.S.Naval nuclear sub and remove its devastating missile payload. Naturally, the Justice League receives a summons, and Cyborg hikes into the Marianas Trench to investigate the damage done to the sub. Flash, Green Lantern, Superman, Wonder Woman, and Shazam all show up. Apparently, the villainous Orm/Ocean Master, Queen Atlanna's rebellious son, advocates war against the surface dwellers despite Queen Atlanna's wishes to the contrary. You know, it's the old Cavalry versus the Indians western with an unhappy upstart fomenting war despite the council of the wise Indian chieftain. Arthur discovers that his mother is Queen Atlanna after she dispatches a resourceful envoy named Mera who saves his bacon. What this lady can do with water is pretty amazing.
 
Indeed, the plot is as predictable as a 1960's Italian sword and sandal saga with malice in the palace. Nevertheless, the confrontations are good, particularly Arthur's introduction. He is sitting in a bar getting himself sloshed and carrying on a conversation with a lobster in a tank. Ultimately, Arthur saves a lobster from being cooked and beats the snot out a group of unruly thugs over the creature. Of course, Arthur leaves all of them sprawled on their faces. When a lone thug tries to stab him with a knife, this incredulous villain watches as his knife crumbles to pieces as his blade strikes his flesh. The animation is Filmation meets Anime. Everybody needs a haircut as my dad would say. Aquaman sets out to thwart his evil half-brother. Superman dates Wonder Woman and buys her a meal at a little cozy restaurant. Lois Lane stumbles onto them. They look like they modeled Mera on Jennifer Aniston. At 72 minutes, "Justice League: Throne of Atlantis" is worth a look-see. This represents the second time that writer Heath Corson and Spaulding have worked together on a DC Comics project.

The Theory of Everything (2014) Live Streaming

"There should be no boundary between human endeavour," Stephen Hawking explains during a press conference. It is this line that strikes a chord at the very centre of James Marsh's incredible biopic on one of the most brilliant scientists of our time. The Theory of Everything is not just a story about the science behind the beginnings of our universe, but the science of love; and how life's challenges that we face everyday, shape who we are and what we achieve. Eddie Redmayne and Felicity Jones turn in phenomenal performances as the revolutionary Stephen Hawking and his former wife Jane Wilde. Eddie's mentally and physically challenging role, displaying Hawkings brilliance and motor neuron disease, are extremely commendable and impressive (a sure fire for a Best Actor nomination at next year's Oscars). On the more sensitive side, Felecity displays the endless love and powerful fight Jane brought to the Hawking household. As the years pass, their lives are changed tremendously in very profound and heart-wrenching ways. The movie does not shy away from making Hawking a complex character, as well as Jane, showing both their positive and negative sides. I really liked that the movie was able to shape them into fully well-rounded characters despite the "romance" aspect of it. The score for the film is tremendous.. absolutely outstanding! It hits all the right marks, brings upon emotions right when you are on the verge of tears, leaves you in awe after a beautiful monologue, and finishes with a melancholy but very fitting tone. The script and directing were top-notch.. right up there with the best... and the cinematography? give that guy an award already! A masterpiece to watch.

While some critics may be quick to judge how the film focuses more on the romance rather than the science that made Hawking so renowned, I believe that the love is what made him who he is today. Human endeavour is endless... Stephen never gave up hope, nor did Jane... and though their lives ended up in different places, it was their years together that displayed to us how a little bit of hope can go a very, very long way.

Royal Rumble: The Complete Anthology, Volume 4 (2003-2007) Live Streaming

The best event concept for me and most people seems to be the 30-man over the top Royal Rumble it's pretty exciting counting down to see who'll be coming out next, and the WWF always makes sure there's a few suprises. The event started off with a short tag match that was very disappointing, Tazz & Spike defended their tag titles against the Dudleys, no tables involved as I was hoping Spike would take a big bump. Next was William Regal vs Edge for the IC title, this match sucked and Regal shouldn't be allowed on tv period! Next match was a joke, a good match, but a joke as Trish Stratus defeated the much stronger and more talented Jazz to retain the women's title. Then we had the most hyped match of the night which was kind of disappointing as Ric Flair took on Vince McMahon, both men are in their 50s so I wasn't expecting much and that's what I got, I was hoping to see Shane or Hogan do something but nobody did anything it was just the two old men staggering around, very boring. And next we had the WWF world title match between Chris Jericho and the Rock, this was the match of the night and we didn't have to see the same old crap... Rock winning with the rock bottom. And of course after that we had the big finale the Royal Rumble. 30 Men and over an hour of constant action, intrigue and excitement. And our suprises this year were Mr. Perfect, Godfather, Val Venis & Goldust so it was nice seeing those 4 men again, however the ending really sucked as we all knew Triple H would won, still a great event to start the WWF off for 2002.

Horrible Bosses 2, A Laugh-Riot!

 A sequel to the decent Horrible Bosses, 'Horrible Bosses 2' is a much superior & much funnier sequel, that delivers above expectations. I laughed, laughed & laughed!

'Horrible Bosses 2' Synopsis: Dale, Kurt and Nick decide to start their own business but things don't go as planned because of a slick investor, prompting the trio to pull off a harebrained and misguided kidnapping scheme.

'Horrible Bosses 2' gets it right, as there are hardly any major minuses here. Sure, the second-hour, where our ill-fated protagonists plan to execute their plan, could've been shorter, with a better climax. But otherwise, this sequel is a riot. The sequences, one after the other, especially the ones with Horrible Bosses Veterans (Portrayed superbly by Kevin Spacey, Jamie Foxx & Jennifer Aniston), bring the house down!
Sean Anders & John Morris's Screenplay is brisk, hilarious & interesting. The goings-on barely offer dull moments. Anders Direction, also, is appropriately done. Cinematography is fine. Editing is good.
 
Performance-Wise: Jason Bateman, one of the finest actors in the block, delivers a truly committed performance, yet again! Charlie Day is first-rate, he contributes to some of the film's funniest bits enormously. Jason Sudeikis supports very well. Christoph Waltz deserved more scope, nonetheless, he's passable. Chris Pine is fantastic. He enacts the comedic baddie to perfection.

On the whole, 'Horrible Bosses 2' is one great laugh! Go, have fun!
