The Bourne Legacy Legacy Blu-Ray Review By: MattInRC The disappointing  Bourne Legacy  delivers excellent audio and video for a film I wish was better. As a fan of Intelli-Action (fast-paced AND smartly dialogued action cinema), I have enjoyed the Bourne series because it's essentially moved the action genre into a more intelligent direction, giving old tired franchises like James Bond new life. Watch  Casino Royale  to witness the renaissance courtesy of Jason Bourne. Thus it seemed like a strange moment when the lights came on after the satisfying  The Bourne Ultimatum  had concluded. Audiences were left to wonder as to the future of a franchise when its main character was essentially vindicated. The answer from Universal would take five years to arrive, as  The Bourne Legacy  would not reset the franchise, but rather move it in a different but no less familiar direction. So, does  Legacy  offer audiences another thrill-ride/political thriller? The answer

Moonrise Kingdom Blu-Ray Review By: MattInRC Make sure to follow MattInRC on twitter for all his reviews. Moonrise Kingdom is uniquely quirky, impressively captivating, and one of best the films of the year as it arrives for its Blu-ray release. To those outside of the indie movie clique, it might look as though the work of Wes Anderson represents no more than series of boring conversations about...well...nothing at all. Locked in a perpetual episode of Seinfeld, in which his characters essentially do nothing, Anderson's work is quintessential eye candy: extreme closeups and other unique camera angles mix with inventive storytelling that's deeply-layered and sometimes even bordering on self-parody. But it's his commitment to those quirky characters that also rules the days. His newest work, Moonrise Kingdom , is Anderson at his best, wrapping an intelligent script around a rich visual experience that plays very well on Blu-ray. The Movie - 5/5 The

The Bourne Legacy Review By:Ursula Look who's back with another review. The one and only Ursula. The Bourne Legacy had potential, but got lost in a lot of political back and forth. The beginning of the movie is a drag. The effort to catch the audience up on the previous movies becomes repetitive and unnecessary. Aaron Cross, (played by Jeremy Renner ) starts out alone, climbing and scaling rocky snowy covered mountains. Apparently, he has been banished for wrong doing. All this is going on while politics unravel back at Treadstone headquarters. Aaron Cross is linked to Dr.Shearing (played by Rachel Weisz ) by her testing blood samples for her scientific research. Her tests are on the effect the pills had on him and others in the program. It was rough sitting through the first half of the movie, other than a doctor going postal in a high security lab, because the scenes were not captivating and interesting. The characters are what carried the film. Both Aaron and the Dr.Shearin

THE BOURNE LEGACY Review By: MattInRC Does THE BOURNE LEGACY move the franchise into a new and exciting frontier, or does it miss the mark?  Warning: major spoilers ahead.

Moonrise Kingdom Movie Review By: Matt C Moonrise Kingdom is uniquely quirky, captivating, and one of best the films of the year. The central theme to Moonrise Kingdom is the danger inherent in labeling certain elements of society as strange or even dangerous without looking a little deeper. Yet the film is so much more than a simple soapbox statement: it's genuinely funny, incredibly honest about itself, existing in a world that feels both familiar and a little off center, much like its main characters. Set among the pine and maple trees on a fictitious 1965 New England island called New Penzance, two children ( Kara Hayward and Jared Gilman ) decide to run away, rejecting the small-town labels they've been given, and touching off a manhunt by the police and local scout master. The journey is the truly funny part, immersing the audience in a perfect mixture of droll humor and slapstick, starting with our Narrator ( Bob Balaban , 2010) as he lists off the nature of the i

MOONRISE KINGDOM Review By: RAMA Here is RAMA's Review for the film. Did he fall in love with the movie? Wes Anderson’s latest yellow toned presentation, MOONRISE KINGDOM , is one of the most adorable films I’ve ever seen. Two very young and very naive lovebirds out on an adventure, against all odds, defying those who oppose, taking their chances in the wilderness. The young actors, Jared Gilman and Kara Hayward give bold performances and the big movie stars, Bruce Willis, Edward Norton , Tilda Swinton, Bill Murray, Frances McDormand, Jason Schwartzman, Harvey Keitel , in supporting roles, help those two young actors achieve the best out of their characters and their funny little love story. Something about teens encountering romance for the first time that’s irresistible and Anderson has managed to successfully captured that by emphasizing curiosity and without losing innocence… Set on an island off the coast of New England in the summer of 1965, MOONRISE KINGDOM

Today onepercase brings us the back story of the Great Norse God, THOR . In the Ultimate universe, Thor's "secret identity" is Thorlief Golmen, a psychiatric nurse. He only went by this name until just before his 30th birthday when he had a nervous breakdown and started calling himself Thor, the God of Thunder. This nervous breakdown was actually a realization of who he was and what he was doing on Earth. His purpose? To save the world from the "war to end all wars". After this realization, Thor became a very involved environmental and political activist. (Joe called him a "tree hugging hippie"). Get To Know The Real HULK Before The Avengers Hits Theaters- Thor initially doesn't want to join the Ultimates because he loathes the military aggression the United States is known for and because he is constantly busy with his various causes. When the Hulk starts wreaking havoc in Manhattan, Thor refuses to help unless the President increases fun
