MISSION IMPOSSIBLE IV: GHOST PROTOCOL


Genre: Action Thriller
Direction: Brad Bird
Lead: Tom Cruise

Absolutely fantastic movie! You just cannot rest your heartbeats anytime through it. After every few blinks of the eye, something happens. It's very fast-paced and the tricks and technologies used are very, very intelligent. It actually activates your brain and makes you wonder how did they think of it.

The story, on the other hand, was only alright. The plot wasn't that interesting as one would expect while watching such a speedy blockbuster, but the direction made it worth watching. This is the closest MI series has got to the level it had set with its 1st movie. You'll enjoy this one and be prepared for some stunning action!

I AM NUMBER FOUR


Genre: Action Sci-Fi Thriller
Direction: D. J. Caruso
Lead: Alex Pettyfer

The fact is, I only watched this movie to keep up with my Teresa Palmer collection. She has an entire new look in this one and that is what I went for. And I was satisfied with it. But the movie plot per say, was ridiculous. Except Palmer, there is nothing much to watch. The trailer builds up this movie so much that after watching this, you feel like you just wasted the whole time. The special effects were great and so was the acting. The plot was gripping but this is not all that you expect from a sci-fi movie. Science-fictions are made to blow people's minds. This movie felt more like watching a fantasy flick, like Sorcerer's Apprentice, only a bit less interesting version though.

It was only average and I wouldn't recommend you to specially take your time out and watch it. Only hardcore action fans that watch movies only for some special effects and people chasing people, would enjoy this movie. It's only okay.
