Recommended movies to watch

Howdy everyone!!! Right now, i wish i sort of had a Cajun accent (wonder why but it sounds sexy) after watching Season one DVD of True Blood. These are the movies i recommend for you to watch with my own short reviews. They are not based in order of importance in anyway, please.

MOVIE ONE: KUNG FU PANDA 2

If you haven't watched Part one, then you are missing. Love the story, the peacocks and the 'heavyweight' panda. I rate it three stars.

MOVIE TWO: X-MEN: FIRST CLASS

It keeps getting better and better. The film takes you back to how the X-Men started and what broke the cordial friendship between Xavier and Magneto. I have a crush on James McAvoy and was delighted to see him in this. Watch out for Kevin Bacon's performance. I rate it four and a half stars.

MOVIE THREE: SARAH'S KEY

This movie describes the horrendous circumstance surrounding the holocaust during the second world war. It narrates how one little courageous girl attempted to save her brother from the massacre. A wonderful movie that deserves an Oscar. Get a tissue handy. I rate it four and a half stars.

MOVIE FOUR: LUSTER

A dark thriller focusing on the double conflicting personalities of a man who's involved in some murders. I rate it three stars.

MOVIE FIVE: HANNA

A movie i enjoyed and which gripped me as i wanted to know how the ending would unravel. It shows the lengths humans would go to, to destroy anything that gets in their way. Cate Blanchett was riveting as wel as the main actress (Saorise Ronan, sorry if i didn't get it right. No time to verify!!) also starred in The Lovely Bones. I rate it four stars.


MOVIE SIX: LIMITLESS

Bradley Cooper was dazzling in this movie. I was a bit put off at first when i saw the trailer about having to transform your life with a pill (thinking it was Matrix all over again) but it's more than that. It delves into the usage of the parts of the brain that are un-used. I rate it three stars.

MOVIE SEVEN: RED RIDING HOOD

Don't watch this if you want to see the re-enactment of the original. It's a different version with sexual undertones and were wolves set in an enchanting fantastical world. I rate it three stars.

MOVIE EIGHT: UNKNOWN

Reminds me of Liam Neeson's role in Taken but this is with a twist. It focuses on man's bid to make known his true identity and escape ruthless killers who are on his prowl. Lots of suspense. I rate it three and a half stars.

MOVIE NINE: MACHETE

It looks like one of those graphic comic/sin city/Quentin Tarantino works. It features a lot of stars and portrays a behind the scenes look into the world of illegal immigration. I rate it three stars.

MOVIE TEN: THE WARD

A movie by John Carpenter. Interesting piece of horror and acting, as well as the usual screams, blood and 'medium' gore. I rate it two and a half stars.

So, there you have it. All the must-watch movies with short reviews and ratings for each one. If you have watched any of the above and/or are yet to watch any of the above, feel free to comment on any of the films and i'll be happy to respond.
