Is there solace in revenge? Bond and "M" sniff a shadowy international network of power and corruption reaping billions. As Bond pursues the agents of an assassination attempt on "M," all roads lead to Dominic Greene, a world-renowned developer of green technology. Only Bond, with help from a retired spy and from a mysterious beauty, stands in Greene's way. "M" wonders if she can trust Bond, or if vengeance possesses him. Beyond that, can anyone drawn to Bond live to tell the tale?
Mike and I LOVED this movie. The action scenes were amazing and the romantic scenes were tame compared to other bond films. We had a bit of trouble following the plot which you can't afford to do during this fast paced movie. Overall, this was very entertaining.
In "Awake," a psychological thriller that tells the story of a man undergoing heart surgery while experiencing a phenomenon called "anesthetic awareness," which leaves him awake but paralyzed throughout the operation. As various obstacles present themselves, his wife must make life-altering decisions while wrestling with her own personal drama.
Thriller is the word here...I was on the edge of my seat and to be honest, grossed out at times. This story has a suprising twist which left me putting all kinds of pieces together. The plot was pretty easy to follow, the director did a good job of letting the story unfold naturally.
Another thumbs up.
In northern Australia at the beginning of World War II, an English aristocrat inherits a cattle station the size of Maryland. When English cattle barons plot to take her land, she reluctantly joins forces with a rough-hewn stock-man to drive 2,000 head of cattle across hundreds of miles of the country's most unforgiving land, only to still face the bombing of Darwin, Australia, by the Japanese forces that had attacked Pearl Harbor only months earlier.
I watched this movie not knowing anything about the plot, it's a fictional story built around true events in history. The cinematography was stunning but the filters got annoying at times. The actors did a great job, anything with Hugh Jackman is always a safe bet in my opinion ;)
This one covers all the bases...action,drama and romance... a nice movie for couples.
