ACTIONMOVIEREVIWS WALL-E Disney Pixar

WALL-E is an animated Disney / Pixar movie with a message, one that I hope people listen to. As WALL-E starts we are taken 700 years into the future a world full of trash and devoid of human life. All that is left of earth is a pile of trash and robots left behind to clean up the mess and we meet WALL-e a robots that is programmed to take trash and make cubes out of it and then stack it in huge high blocks. He is all alone till a spaceship drops of another robot a female robot from the future that is looking for any signs of life on this left for dead world. The animation in this movie is superb and way this world of the future envisioned and displayed by Andrew Stanton the director are well done and push the art of animation to the next level.  
V for Vendetta V for Vendetta 2005 fantasy-thriller film . The story is very complex but I try to explain a little, its 2038 in England and the story starts as Evey Hammond (Natalie Portman) and V (Hugo Weaving) getting ready for a night out as the watch the state-run British Television Network (BTN) as it spits untruth. The country was divided over the loss of freedom until a bioterrorist attack occurred; killing about 80,000 people and the new regime has taken full control now. Evey is then out after curfew and stopped by finger men the local futuristic corrupt police and rescued by V masked vigilante.
Memento :: movie review 2000 Memento :: movie review 2000: This is the story of Leonard Shelby (Guy Pearce) who can’t make any new memories every time he wakes up or drifts off he was to start all over. Lenny is on a quest to find his wife’s killer by tattooing facts on his body and taking Polaroid pictures with notes. He has a system and this is where the plot of this movie thrives, in flashbacks and the underlying of story of Sammy Jankis who he meet years earlier and had a similar condition, so Lenny’s has “remember Sammy Jankis” tattooed on his hand this is the audiences first cue that this is going to get interesting.
Soylent Green : 1973 movie review Soylent Green :: 1973 movie review .

Appaloosa : movie review Two retired army friends Virgil Cole (Ed Harris) and his deputy Everett Hitch (Viggo Mortensen are hired to police a lawless small town in the old west circa 1880ish that is suffering under the rule of a rancher Randall Bragg (Jeremy Irons). They find their job complicated by the arrival of a young widower (Renée Zellweger) and the drama she brings.
The Red Baron This movie was good ,not great just good, I revert back to my childhood, when I loved to watch war movies and started to really enjoy this film. The dialog is a little off, a bad translation from the German, and a little awkward at watch. On the flip side of that, there are some really cool dog fight sequences and very realistic sets and costumes. This is the story of Baron Manfred von Richthofen (Matthias Schweighöfer) the First World War German flying ace.He was the most the most decorated and fear and for good reason, he shot the most pilots out of the sky and was used by the Germans as a propaganda icon to inspire the troops in the trenches to valor. This movie starts out with a very interesting scene where the red baron and his friends fly there planes over the enemy lines to drop flowers on an enemy pilots funeral.

The King of Kong: A Fistful of Quarters :: 2007 movie review  The King of Kong: A Fistful of Quarters is about the world record high score for the highly popular in the 80’s arcade game Donkey Kong and who really is the champ.

This is the story of Steve Wiebe and Billy Mitchell , Steve is trying to get this record that has been unbeaten for over 20 years. There is a bunch of other people associated with Twin Galaxies, an organization formed to keep track of high scores achieved on arcade games in the United States and they are interview, which adds to the story and its complexities.

No spoiler reviews

OK “We don’t do spoilers”; it’s my policy to be very vague about the story lines of the films I review here. I have always hated reading movie reviews that tell to much about a film. Entering a theater already having preconceived notions about the plot and / or the outcome of the film in the past have ruined the viewing experience for me,so this is why these reviews are written this way . I hope you enjoy our NO Spoiler Action Movie Reviews!
