Movie Review 11

For super-dog Bolt, every day is filled with adventure, danger and intrigue - at least until the cameras stop rolling. When the canine star of a hit TV show is accidentally shipped from his Hollywood soundstage to New York City, he begins his biggest adventure yet - a cross-country journey through the real world. Armed only with the delusions that all his amazing feats and powers are real, and with the help of two unlikely traveling companions - a jaded, abandoned housecat named Mittens and TV-obsessed hamster in a plastic ball named Rhino - Bolt discovers he doesn't need superpowers to be a hero.

I found this movie to have a sweet story sprinkled with comedy. Another feel good movie that families will enjoy.



Roger Ferris is a CIA operative in the Middle East; Ed Hoffman is his control at Langley. Cynicism is everywhere. In Amman, Roger works with Hani Salaam, Jordan's head of security, whose only dictum is "Don't lie to me." The Americans are in pursuit of a cleric who leads a group placing bombs all over Europe. When Hani rebukes Ed's demand that Jordan allow the Americans to use one of Jordan's double agents, Roger and Ed hatch a plan to bring the cleric to them. The plan is complicated by its being a secret from Hani and by Roger's attraction to a local nurse. Satellites and cell phones, bodies and lies: modern warfare.

I got a bit lost trying to follow the plot, it was quite graphic in places and the "f" word was used. I thought the action sequences were cool but on the hole wished that I'd never picked this one. It seems that they spent a lot of time making sure the movie was true to the brutality of war. Not for the faint of heart or haters of bad language. A big thumbs down for me.



Joe, an international hit man who follows a simple code, arrives in Bangkok for his last contract - four kills and then retirement. He hires Kong, a local street hustler, to run his errands, and he gets to work. By the second hit, Joe has started violating his four rules, losing his anonymity, leaving behind traces, and getting emotionally involved. Only one rule remains intact: don't ask questions. Can Joe regain his footing and get out alive?

Nick, Nick, Nick..what happened dude? I was expecting much more. This one was just "ok" I still enjoyed it but found the plot to drag out a bit. I think the "f" word was used here too but I don't remember. Not a repeat viewing for me I'm afraid.
