Cornered by the FBI after a relentless pursuit, a man (Nicholas Cage) with the ability to see future events and affect their outcome faces an ultimatum, as the country's intelligence agencies scramble to prevent a devastating terrorist attack.
Now Julian Moore as FBI agent Callie Ferris may not be the hottest chick in town but I have slowly come to admire her acting.
Jessica Biel is the exaact Opposite story :))

Spoiler here :
Cris Johnson (Nicolas Cage) was born with the unique, if somewhat limited, ability to see up to two minutes into his own future. The only exception to this two minute limitation is in the case of a particular woman, Liz (Jessica Biel), who is a recurring vision in Cris' dreams - he saw her days before he first met her. With the government having tormented him for years because of his ability, he has generally kept a low profile, utilizing his unique ability as a Las Vegas showroom magician (going by the show name "Frank Cadillac") and small-time gambler. It is revealed to Cris that the reason the FBI, headed by special agent Callie Ferris (Julianne Moore), have been tracking him in the recent past is to acquire his aid in preventing a nuclear bomb detonation in Los Angeles. Following this, Cris meets the woman of his dreams in a restaurant. The two become friendly, and begin a cross-country trip. The FBI catch up, and it becomes apparent that the attackers possesing the nuclear bomb have followed them to Cris. Following an attempted escape, Cris agrees to join forces with the FBI. After an all-out attack on the would-be bombers, in which Cris demonstrates his ability to see into multiple possible futures simultaneously, the FBI, led by Cris, save Liz (who had been captured by the bombers), however, once they reach a nuclear activity detector, he realizes he has made a mistake and, just then, the nuclear bomb detonates, wiping out everyone. It is then revealed that the whole experience after Cris joins forces with the FBI has been another of Cris' simulations. He corrects his mistake by not involving Liz and then, once more, joins forces with the FBI. He is last seen driving away with the FBI, in the hope of saving millions of lives.

Good movie and definetly worth a watch . . . even just to watch Cage once more in his acts . . . Nuclear device idea is definetly getting a lil old but that is just a part of the story . . . the real story is Cris Johnson and his abilities . . .

This is a movie about a kid who is left behind because of disobedience after his clan battles a Native American Tribe.Despite his blond hair and strange language, the ten year-old is adopted by the local Wampanoag tribe, who raise him to become a hunter and warrior.
Fifteen years later, the young man, known to his tribe as Ghost (Karl Urban), is still trying to escape his past. As the Vikings return to storm America, they carry out an attack that annihilates Ghost's tribe and endangers the woman he loves (Moon Bloodgood). As a survivor on the run and seeking vengeance, Ghost comes under the guidance of the Pathfinder (Russell Means), a powerful shaman who foresees the young man's unexpected destiny: as the hero who will wage a war against the Vikings and becomes his people's savior.

The movie has some amazing cinematography even better then the effects of lord of the rings. most of the forests have a blue tinge to them which adds to the effect.
Viking costumes look just like the ones Hagar wears and also like the ones you see in Viking Video Games.
Except for the fact that Norsemen wearing horned helmets is a false stereotype that has been propagated in recent centuries by cartoons like hagar etc. Most historians agree that viking helmets never had horns as it made it cumbersome to fight in close quarters.

I saw this movie right now and I wanted to put a pistol on my butt and shoot myself in the ass.

ppl have lost count on how many times the same story has been repeated in zounds of movies here . . .
In short bratty indo-brit girl in London . . . dad gets her married to an Indian punju, she doesn't approve and plans to get married to a brit (who knows prince Charles btw ROFLMAO) Our punju bugger comes to london and tries to win her back ( *pointing my gun on my ass*) And kicks some racist butt along the way in a rugby match and a long lecture. There is even a guy who's daddy's daddy was a oppressive governor in India( Can u beat that??)
so I don't think I need to tell what happens at the altar when the girl walks up to the altar with our punju as the best man and the rich brit as the groom . . .

Do Not . . . I repeat do not watch this movie at any cost even if someone has a gun to ur head . . .

smoke, drink and dope and die of cancer and shit . . . this is not the way to commit painless suicide . . .

PS: Ok nice knowing y'all. . . goodbye :((

Spoof movie, this is a genre that is being abused to the limit in hollywood these days. I think this started big time with scary movie which was followed by date the movie and now this. If you are looking for something fundamentally different from the previous movies you better not watch this. However you can watch it if you like spoofs and would like to watch a spoof of the newer movies that have come out later. they did make fun of most new movies that are my favourites. These included Pirates of the carribean with Jack Swallows as the captain of the "fantasia" rapping with his fellow pirates about a pirates colourfull lives with babes doing the car wash act on the ship and such. The main target for spoof though is Narnia with small elements of "Da Vince Code", "Snakes on the plane", "X-men" , "charlie and the chocolate factory", "Star Wars", "Harry Potter", "Superman", "Borat" etc thrown in . . .
Lemme tell you that carmen electra as mystique is still too hot inspite of the blue paint and stickers all over her lol . . .

Though not a movie for serious movie goers or for ppl who don't like dirty jokes I do think it can be seen if you wanna see jack sparrow again . . . see this movie at your own risk though :)

Smokin Aces ( May the best hitman win ) PDF Print E-mail

Category:Movies
Genre: Comedy
cast includes Ryan Reynolds, Jeremy Pivens, Ben Affleck, Ray Liotta, Andy Garcia, Jason Bateman, Alicia Keys.

Written by Joe Carnahan and set in Lake Tahoe with Buddy "Aces" Israel (Piven) as a Las Vegas magician turned Mafia informant and Rchard Messener (Reynolds) as the FBI agent assigned to protect him.

****Spoiler warning****

The movie starts with a background where FBI has cracked down hard on mafia and destroyed them all save for one . . Primo Sparazza
While listening to the convo the agents learn that with a $1 million bounty on his head, the hit has been put out on Buddy “Aces” Israel.

Cutting then between several other characters, the story about Buddy Israel's rise and downfall within the Mafia world is told and the identities of those willing to take a shot at the million dollar prize are revealed.

Amongst them are: Las Vegas bail bondsman Jack Dupree (Ben Affleck) and his two ex-cop associates "Pistol" Pete Deeks (Peter Berg) and Hollis Elmore (Martin Henderson), who have been hired by Rip Reed (Jason Bateman). Killers for hire, Georgia Sykes (Alicia Keys) and Sharice Watters (Taraji P. Henson). Darwin (Chris Pine), Jeeves (Kevin Durand), and Lester Tremor (Maury Sterling) who are a trio of psychotic neo-Nazi brothers known for their lack of subtlety. Pasqual Acosta (Nestor Carbonell), (aka The Plague), a sadistic torturer who once chewed off his own fingertips so that he couldn’t be identified; and Lazlo Soot (Tommy Flanagan), a dangerous master of disguise.

Around the same time, bail bondsman Dupree and his associates drive out towards the lake to discuss their plan of going undercover as casino workers to nab Israel. While discussing the minor details of the plan, a car blaring heavy metal music passes by, and then backs up. As the men turn around to look at the car, they are ruthlessly gunned down by The Tremor brothers in the car, who consequently steal the casino outfits for their own use. ( these guys bear a striking perhaps a deliberate resemblance to the german band rammstein in the song feur frei lol)
Watters goes across the street to another hotel, where she sets up a Barrett M82 .50 caliber sniper rifle.( love this tool :))

Away from the casino, Hollis, one of the bounty hunters who was shot down by the Tremors, wakes up in the lake. Severely injured, he makes his way to a cabin, where a disturbed Ritalin-fueled boy lives with his grandmother.They take Hollis in and dress his wounds, although their unnatural behavior bewilders him.

the elevators get shut down, leaving the Tremor Brothers, armed with a variety of both ranged and melee weapons, trapped inside of one. They pull out a portable generator to get their elevator working again.

Meanwhile, a security team is waiting for an elevator to come to the penthouse suite; the elevator doors open, and the Tremor brothers jump out, heavily armed with a variety of weapons (stielhandgranates, machetes, a chainsaw, a DAO-12, a sawn-off shotgun, and an M3 Grease Gun) and ready to massacre.These guys will definetly crack you up with their style . . .
Tremors kill nearly everyone except Ivy who grabs a pistol and kills Lester. Before Jeeves can kill Ivy, Ivy shoots him and he falls on his chainsaw. Darwin, the final brother, gets to Ivy but Sykes shows up and saves him. Defeated, Darwin runs back into the elevator and makes his way down. Sykes, weakened, falls and Ivy begins to carry her down the stairwell.
Darwin, who escapes using an FBI badge in the elevator, walks off to the parking garage.
When Darwin makes it to the roof of the parking garage, he finds Hollis waiting for him. Darwin apologizes about shooting him and killing his friends; and he gives his car keys to Hollis. As Darwin walks off, Hollis decides to kill him anyway.

*** Spoilers End ***

This movie is a must watch for any one who likes dark comedies . . . this is a guy only film. I would suggest downloading and watching it as when it releases here I expect a lot of scenes to be cut and edited.
