First off, I'm an absolute Middle Earth fanatic, both on the literary page and on the screen (I've seen and read it all, literally). This is my personal perspective on The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies. And if you visit the comment section, I'll detail what's in the EXTENDED EDITION. So stick with me, dear reader, because this review could be long and fraught with emotion. Let us begin! IMO, BATTLE might just be the best of the Hobbit trilogy. The fans of the book will get their emotional moments, their classic Tolkien lines, and their respect treated seriously, while Peter Jackson reclaims his throne as the living King of Epic, with the Wagnerian grandeur, big feels, and visual splendor he does so well.

From the opening moments, wherein Smaug the Terrible rains down an unholy blitzkrieg of dragonfire on unsuspecting Laketown, BATTLE sets a snappy pace and only lets up long enough for you to gasp in awe or dab a tear from your eye. BATTLE is at once the most epic and the most personal of the trilogy. The Company of Thorin have now captured Erebor and are sitting upon a massive hoard of dragon gold. Drawn by riches and power, the forces of good and evil converge upon the Lonely Mountain. War between elves, dwarves, men, and orcs looms fell on the horizon even as darkness creeps into the heart of Thorin Oakenshield, and the Dark Lord Sauron looks to make a comeback.

Story : The Hobbit: The Battle of Five Armies concludes the epic journey of Bilbo Baggins of the Shire and his legion of Dwarves led by Thorin Oakenshield, under the guidance of Gandalf the Wizard, with a powerful, emotional finish. It begins right where part II left off, and wastes little time building towards the incredible war that is about to take place for the treasures of the Lonely Mountain.
Thorin must decide if he should live in his Grandfather's footsteps and horde all of the gold that is rightfully his, or listen to his solemn friends at the end of their dangerous journey to reclaim their home. The Bard and his townsfolk want only enough of the treasure to rebuild their fire scorned town, while the Elves want their cut of the diamonds, and yet the Orcs and Goblins, led by Azog the Defiler, wish to claim this Mountain fortress for its strategic position in the land, under their master Sauron, who is confronted by Galadriel, Gandalf, Elrond and Saruman. When the Dwarf army enters the fray, war becomes inevitable despite the pleas of the burglar Hobbit, Bilbo and his golden ring of invisibility. Tamriel (smoothly weaved into the story and an original character not in the J.R.R. Tolkien Book) lends her support along with the expert marksman Legolas, as she must decide if Kili, the Dwarf she is taken with, will be worth pursuing during this great war.

The Salt of the Earth Full Movie Reviews

Very touching and beautiful doc about life, love, loss, despair, redemption and it shows how, by sheer faith, you can build a forest. Literally. The beautiful photos tell a troubling yet touching story that will make you angry at mankind. By the end you will find yourself believing again and hoping that one day you could be so humble as to reflect on the negative influences in your life and thus be able to change those nativities into positive reactions . You are probably not doing enough for the world around you and when you see how easy it is to make real change, hopefully it will be a call to action. If a picture tells 1000 words, then this film tells 1000 stories.

The Gunman Full Movies Review
Pierre Morel's "The Gunman" is such a menial cinematic actioneer that it isn't even worth existing. 
Being that it's from the same guy who brought us "Taken" back in 2008, which at least had 
occasional bouts of excitement and peril, it's amazing to see a film by him so sterile and feeble. 
Worst of all, the film feels so much like a cut and paste effort to please studio executives with 
another beginning-of-the-year action release, made up of odds and ends men in suits think we'd 
like to see over what we'd actually like to see, that it's as if we're watching 
a film nobody asked for.

One of the few positives of "The Gunman" is that it gives Liam Neeson time to take a hot bath 
and lather his entire body with Icy Hot. Sean Penn, the latest candidate in this exhausting line 
of aging action heroes proving they can keep up with guys half their age, steps up to the plate 
here, playing Jim Terrier, an ex-soldier living in the Democratic Republic of Congo. Jim works 
for a humanitarian organization, and, one day, creates civil unrest and turmoil by assassinating 
a corrupt official for a foreign mining company. Following the event, we pick up eight years later 
where Jim's wife (Jasmine Trinca) is now his ex-wife, married to his former coworker Felix 
(Javier Bardem in perhaps his weakest role yet), his health is greatly deteriorating with chronic 
headaches and fainting, and goons out to make him repay for his assassination in the Congo.

Penn is almost always the center of attention in "The Gunman," which is fine, as Penn has proved 
through diverse roles he's capable of carrying a movie, but the talent on display here is really 
cut short and given stupid, half-baked roles to fill. Bardem is laughable, as he spends some 
of his desperately little screen time drugged out of his mind, Idris Elba shows up just when you 
think the studios forgot to erase his name off the poster for less then eight minutes, and Ray 
Winstone, who plays Terrier's longtime friend, isn't given enough time on screen either, 
even though every time he appears he gives "The Gunman" some sort of life and drive. 
Why pay the actors so much and give them prominence on the poster when they you give them 
nothing to do and make their appearance nothing more than a glorified cameos? We're living 
in an age that's beginning to disprove the power of the Hollywood star system, yet Hollywood 
doesn't want to believe that.

Not to mention, the aging action hero concept is not only dying out, but it's getting to be an ugly 
retread. "The Gunman," in a way, feels like a direct replica of the Kevin Costner aging action 
hero vehicle "3 Days to Kill" that simmered in publicity before anyone got a chance to buy 
a ticket (though it's one of the few of the genre very much worth seeing, more so than any 
"Taken" installment). From the way Penn's character passes out and gets overcome with 
headaches and dizziness and the state of denial his character lives in, "The Gunman" is very 
much like the failed clone of that film. The main difference, however, is while the drama in 
"The Gunman" feels like a nonsensical, love triangle convention, "3 Days to Kill" used its drama 
as a route of humanization. The "aging action hero" concept has prevented the early retirements 
and the wealth of endorsement possibilities for people like Arnold Schwarzenegger, Sylvester 
Stallone, Liam Neeson, Kevin Costner, and now Sean Penn, as a means to make a living, but it's 
a concept as worn as the joints on all those men.

I feel like erasing my entire review of "The Gunman" and replacing it with Leonard Maltin's review 
of "Scooby Doo 2: Monster's Unleashed," which ranks as one of the shortest film reviews ever 
written. "It is what it is," Maltin simply surmised on the film, an oversimplifying statement I try 
my hardest to avoid in life and in writing, but here, it applies greatly. "The Gunman" is what you'd 
expect: the acting is a collection of star-powered mediocrity, the action on display is surprisingly 
gory, but wholly unsatisfying in the sterile way it is carried out, Frédéric Thoraval's editing is all 
over the place, and the themes explored in the film are about as generic as the film's title. 
Whether or not you'll enjoy it depends on how desperate you are to see violence, in which case, 
I'm sure there's something on TNT later tonight that will serve your need for an adrenaline rush in 
a much more effective way, and you won't have to pay any more than you already are to see it.

Cinderella Full Movie Reviews

It's hard for a man to admit to watching Cinderella. It's even more humiliating to be the one who 
dragged his wife along to watch it. Yet, the final straw in the haystack of humiliation came after 
the movie had finished and to my astonishment found out that I had enjoyed it more than my wife
 did. With that confession out of the way, let me tell you a little about this wonderful retelling 
of the classical tale of Cinderella.
If you have watched the original 1950s cartoon or some of the many other renditions based 
on the Cinderella story, then there shouldn't be much to surprise you here. Kenneth Branagh 
chooses to stick to the trodden path and retell the story almost exactly as it had been told in the 
original. However, you must forgive me for not remembering every detail from the original which 
I haven't seen in decades. This latest live-action version bears no surprises, twists or turns. 
Everything is as it was, and to my surprise, I was completely okay with it. It was truly a refreshing 
and rewarding experience to watch a movie untouched by the crude and base content so many movies 
these days are smeared with. Not even family movies are free from scenes or language that is 
entirely inappropriate to the little ones and unhealthy for the old. Thankfully, this tale chooses 
to tell the story in as clean a manner as possible. Bravo, Kenneth.

The acting was superb. Every part was well-acted and every moment the main characters shared 
together felt special and meaningful. Lily James as Cinderella and Cate Blanchett as her wicked 
step- mother were particularly good in their roles. They gave the film true class, and I believe 
in less capable hands, this film might have been far less endearing and praiseworthy. 
The guy who played Kit, the prince who falls in love with Cinderella, was also likable 
and believable in his role. The colours, sets, decorations, costumes and music were brilliant. 
It seemed that almost every scene had something in it that deserved further inspection. Therefore, 
there will be many hankering for another trip to the cinema for another dose of this buffet 
of wonder.


I can't lie. One reason that can explain why I really enjoyed this movie was because the day before 
I had seen Into the Woods, which is quite simply the worst fairytale movie I have ever seen. 
That was the main reason why we wanted to watch Cinderella, to simply get the bad taste out of 
our mouths from that travesty of a movie. And it did that in spades. 

Please go see Cinderella if you have young kids or if there is a little bit of romance in your heart 
which you hope to be rekindled. Your little girls will especially be enchanted with the story of this 
lovely princess whose motto in life was to "have courage and be kind," which she truly lived out. 
This movie succeeded in something which few films these days rarely achieve, to inspire me 
to love my wife more and appreciate her for the lovely woman she is. A woman's courage and 
kindness is truly a wonderful thing to behold, and we men often forget to value such things as 
we should. Don't miss out on this gem!
