ZOOLANDER 2

https://openload.co/f/1p6OEZ0VOAw/zkndwtw.br_300mbfilms.org.rar

REVIEWED

This movie took place about 10 years after the first one which is actually about that long. It has the main actors as the first one. Ben Stiller (of course and he is also the director and producer), Will Ferrel and Owen Wilson. Mila Jakovich was also in the one reviving her role from the 1st one.

IMDB give this a 5.0 rating which to me it deserve it ! Thats why it came on Blu Ray quite fast.

The first thing noticed was the accompanying music. It was like Dark Knight suspense epic music all the way. Sometimes it work sometimes it was quite distracting. Distracting why ? As this is a comedy movie you just kindda of distracted that this movie should be taken seriously.

One thing that can entertain you is the number of actors and celebrities in this one. It started with Justin Bieber and that was funny. But I dont know how BS managed to get to get them killed or being an idiot in the movie. Oh dont forget Jack Bauer ! I wished i did not see this movie as it spoiled JB's character in his many 24 TV series !

As a director and how the action were shown, Ben Stiller is not bad. Just as he did with Walter Minty. But the jokes are stupid at times and the plot is childish. Thats my complaint.

Well see it for a good laugh here and there and knowing your celebrities.

PHOENIX RISING DEEP PURPLE

https://openload.co/f/Xi-6IppDpgc/Deep_Purple_-_Phoenix_Rising_DVD_%282011%29.mp4

REVIEWED

Stumbled on this video on Youtube downloaded and uploaded it to OpenloadCo. If nobody download it for a duration of time then its bye bye for the video. Its an old video of 2011 and in Blue Ray, so the quality of the interviews are good. As for the rest, particularly the concert footage - it comes as what they are. Anyway there are quite a number of havent seen footage which are bonuses for DP's fans of course.

To me, this Movie documentary could have been retitled "Glen's Purple featuring Lord" because it contained a lot of interviews GH. Next is Jon Lord. I mean the interviews meant for this video back then in 2011. Not that it was not good but it gave a good perspective of DP during the GH's era. Some unknown but interesting facts revealed like the song "Coming home" had Tommy Bolin's on bass when Glen Hughes was nowhere near the continent when they made the song. Got to see to know (no spoilers)

I always thought TB is not a good guitar player. It was glaring in The Last Concert in Japan. The fact is he was not really playing the guitar because of his arm's numbness due to indirect result of taking drugs prior to the concert. They wanted to feature the gig as an album because it was the only and last time TB was caught on film alive.

JL's tend to get emotional at times during his interview when he touched on the significant moments of the band's history.

Mend for those who are die hard fans of the band especially the Mark IV and you will not be dissapointed as it got footage and facts you dont know before this.

Not from the DVD rather than a tribute to DP's MarkIV line up.

REVIEWED

This movie stars Joseph Fiennes, not James Bond's M, but the younger brother.

It is about the rise of Jesus Christ (?), I believe, from what being told and written from the bible. What I know there are a few versions and I dont know which one was this taken from. It started from the cruxification of JC right to when he rose from the dead and commanded his 12 apostles to spread Christianity.

Through out the movie, you are not told the name Jesus rather than Yeshua who was played by Cliff Curtis. This guy could look like a Negro, hispanic but more like an Indian. He could also look like a Jew in this one. JF played Clavius one of the roman's commander who got "converted" but turned down to be one of the apostle.

The movie is slow with not much of action or effects. The only motivation to view this is to find out what finally happened or when the movie end. To me how easily was Clavius being turned to believe in Yeshua hard to understand. How a Roman commander who slained Jews suddenly turned a new leaf when he met Yeshua. And also how the Apostle believe in him that he had turned is also a wonder. But since it is based on a "true story" of sort, it could happened. Perhaps like "Eddie the Eagle" the part of Clavius was fictious ?

The Romans soldiers seem kind and gentlemen like thou you see dozens of bodies been thrown to rot after cruxification.

Good to see if you are into drama. Ok acting I suppose. It would be better if it had shown the cruelty and the torture done by the Romans and how Christianity started to spread. Spicing up the action would also be great. Perhaps budget is a constraint and so we are left with this version.

10 CLOVERFIELD LANE

https://openload.co/f/oBBUGhz46-w/10.Cloverfield.Lane.2016.HDRip.XViD.AC3-ETRG.avi.mp4

REVIEWED

This movie has a ring to it. The first that'll come to your mind is the question - has it got to do with the movie of a similar but unique title which is Cloverfield ? I can still remember that movie where it was as though taken from a handcam all through out the film. At that time it was one of the first to experiment with that kind of movie technique. In a way it helps to make a movie interesting despite its low budget. That movie worked for me as it was effective. In the end we finally discovered what the "mysterious" terror was. Only a short glimpse it made the movie work well. But that was this movie what about this one ?

Nope it is not taken from a supposedly handcam perspective. Its not too low a budget but the set made you think it is and it applied the same formula as the earlier one (not saying that it is related :) It keep the suspense right up the end and spend the budget of the movie at the end too.

No surprise that the main attraction of this movie is that the producer is the respected JJ Abrams right after the huge success of Star Wars TFA. The movie has his element but not directed by him.

This movie was give the awesometacular rating by a Youtube movie reviewer (i think you know who) and I grabbed the first chance that I can get hold of the respected download version of it.

I am not disappointed at all watching it but it did not get the thumbs up as nothing much the movie can do about 3 people in a bunker. It has its moments all right. Its strength lies in the acting of the 3 stars. Maybe John Goodman can get an award like JK Simons in Whiplash for this one, the scary guy. Elizabeth Winstead was also good. She deserve an award too if this year Bree Larson got for Room which till now i disagree.

This movie is recommended if you like drama and built of suspense in a film. With such thin plot and to drag it for about 1hour 40mins is a feat indeed.
