Epic (2012). Animation.
I just saw a trailer for “Epic.” It’s an animation in 3D (of course, why not?) and it’s created by the creators of RIO and ICE AGE . And I must say that it’s probably the most impressive trailer I’ve seen in a while… That trailer did it for me, it’s a hook. Most likely it’s because of a soundtrack that really defines it. In fact as you watch it...

Сериал "Реальные Пацаны". Рецензия на первый...
Давайте поговорим о “Реальных Пацанах”. Вообще команда телеканала ТНТ молодцы. У них очень много успешных проектов, которые они запускают и они блестяще “проигрываются” на их канале, и находят, ну просто, скажем так, сумасшедший успех. Что и говорить о таких проектах как “Комеди Клаб”, “Наша Раша”, “Интерны”, “Универ”,...

Brave by Pixar (2012) a less cynical review.
It’s been quite a ride for me watching “Brave” in a movie theatre yesterday. I took my whole family to watch it, and the tearful ride began for us with the trailers before the movie. First, my three year old daughter started crying watching “Amazing Spiderman” trailer… Which I actually like and our 14 y.o. son was quite excited to watch. And then all of a...
Сериал "Реальные Пацаны".
Четвертый день смотрю сериал “Реальные Пацаны” от ТНТ. Потрясающий проект. Удивительные диалоги, хохмы, яркие персонажи (один другого краше), удивительно реалистичный, очень эмоциональный, добродушный и позитивный. Конечно он достоин просмотра, и хорошей рецензии. И это будет моя первая рецензия на русском языке, тем более что и сериал-то специфичный, не думаю что он даже в переводе...
Brave by Pixar (2012)
Just watched “Brave” by Pixar. Good animation, great graphics, but all of a sudden a good cartoon for kids. It’s not as good as other cartoons by Pixar that were genius in satisfying older and younger generations at the same time. Remember the magnificent “Incredibles” and many other great ones? Suddenly “Brave” was full of characters and ideas that were...

Thorough review: The Snow White and The Huntsman...
Resume: Just how ugly should the Evil Queen be (Charlize Theron in that case) so that she would want to kill the Snow White (in that specific case Kristen Stewart)???
- She has Man Hands! (Jerry Seinfeld).
What’s with the movie title? I don’t get it. So, if you’re using Miyazaki style Forest Deer, why don’t you just use Miyazaki style Movie titles? :)
Why is it Bella...

The Snow White and The Huntsman (2012).
I’ve just watched it. The Snow White and The Huntsman. This one deserves a thorough review… My tagline for the movie and the biggest question of the day at the same time: How ugly should the Evil Queen (Charlize Theron) be, so that you’d wish to kill the Snow White (Kristen Stewart)???

The Master from Paul Thomas Anderson. →
Now that’s a treat from Paul Thomas Anderson. Director of Boogie Nights, Magnolia, There Will Be Blood is coming with a controversy… Movie about Scientology? Can’t wait to watch that trailer. :)
From GeekTyrant.com - New Dark Knight trailer... →
Just as he says it really blows you away… Can’t see why it can’t be biggest movie of 2012… (Avengers were great too, but Nolan’s a different kind of a Master…)
More editing.
I must appologize to all who read my blog about movies. I’m doing it for the first time, and most of the time I’m in a rush. I feel an urge to do something as fast as I can, or try to be relevant… I do that at the expense of the quality of my writing. I shall not do this anymore. I will spend more time editing my small articles, so that you may enjoy it without saying...

Prometheus (2012) final review.
Prometheus made big headlines, there was great anticipation, fine viral marketing, great teasers, and Damon Lindelof as a writer… after the hype is gone I believe that the story sucks, alien-prequel-anticipation looks like a spinoff, and the movie leaves you stumbled, or if you’ve got a great sense of humor, you feel amused :)
So, the story is stupid, you are wide open to make...
Prometheus (2012 film) by Ridley Scott.
A short note about that movie. How can an R rated movie collect 50 mln at the boxoffice? That’s not all… I think I must share the fact that Prometheus is so incomprehensible and the story is so poor that I’m so freaking amazed by the fact that it could collect so much money in it’s first outing. Yet the answer seems simple. Great cast, great viral campaign, great visual...

Madagaskar 3: Europe's Most Wanted.
(I haven’t edited this one, I just wrote it, I’ll edit it later :) Just wanted to share about it asap)
Now that animation is just a feast for the eyes, and mind-bending story that goes beyond borders… Just as my wife and I watched the final titles the feeling of a celebration struck us wave after wave, as if we are both wind-surfers unexpectedly covered by those desirable ocean...
