UPSIDE DOWN (2012)

A love story with a difference, that cleverly takes the point literally that men and women seem to be from to different planets. Kirsten Dunst plays Eden who lives on the well off privileged planet falls for Adam played by Jim Sturgess who lives on the poverty stricken planet. Both worlds even though are across from each other are bounded by the laws of gravity which pulls both of soul mates away from each other and in opposite directions. The twinned worlds with entwined gravities makes for an interesting story and spectacular visuals. Being from separated planets is not the only challenge their love has to master but the dangers that are faced with when they decide to ignore the laws that are put in place to separate the interaction between the hierarchy of class between rich and poor. This is one fantasy movie that takes a page out of inception and the matrix handbook, testing our sense of reality with worlds similar to our own but with a hint of difference. The difference that we only see in our imagination that comes alive in our dreams. An entertaining movie for ladies who enjoy drama and romance and a bit of Fantasy for the gents.

COMPULSIONS (2013)


There are some movies that actors and actress should just avoid because playing in them could damage their career. This is one of those movies that the stars couldn't shine bright enough to make you ignore the bad story and pointless scenes which didn't seem to tie together. The only thing that made sense in this movie was to put these successful actors in the mix, because they were the only draw card this movie had to offer. The actors did a great job playing the roles, but their is only so much you could do with such a shitty script. The story of two females  individual obsession coming together didn't make the story interesting. One woman obsessed with cooking the other obsessed with throwing up what ever she eats. Death by chef is what the movie should of focused on, but director chose to focus the majority of the movie on the food and preparation of the food. Boring and shitty don't make for a good ingredients for a successful movie. Bad movie, Bad story very, very badly done.

THINK IT, AND MAKE IT HAPPEN

KICK START YOUR WEEK WITH A QUOTE A WEEK

"As a single footstep will not make a path on the earth, so a single thought will not make a pathway in the mind. To make a deep physical path, we walk again and again. To make a deep mental path, we must think over and over the kind of thoughts we wish to dominate our lives."

Henry David Thoreau
