Cast: Dwayne Johnson (The Rock)
Steven Brand
Kelly Hu

The movie was okay, not bad or not pretty good. It's okay for a one time watch. The man to lookout for is definitely The Rock. Kelly Hu looked great in her dress. The story is to save the world from an evil villain king. You know how stories are in these kind of movies. I like the OST "I Stand Alone" by Godsmack.

Cast: Leonardo DiCaprio
Tom Hanks

Two great actors and a great story, the result is a great movie. This is a real movie on the life of a conman Frank Abagnale Jr. who posing as a Pan American pilot pulled out millions of dollars. He used to make fake checks, fake dresses, even the ID. Great movie, fun to watch.

All the three movies are great adventure movies and a treat to senses. It is one of my favorite movies. The movies are based on the novel by J. R. R. Tolkien. The first part The Fellowship of the Ring is just the beginning of the movie which shows the characters, the purpose of the ring and stuffs like that. The first part won 4 academy awards for: Best Cinematography, Best Effects (Visual Effects), Best Makeup, and Best Music (Original Score). The second part The Two Towers shows the preparation of the war. The movie won 2 academy awards for Visual Effects, and Sound Editing. The most important is the third part The Return of the King which shows the war and it is a great one. The third part also shows the life of Gollum, the mystic creature who was once the bearer of the ring. The movie won 11 academy awards: Academy Award for Best Picture, Directing, Adapted Screenplay, Original Score, Song, Visual Effects, Art Direction, Costume Design, Make-up, Sound Mixing and Film Editing. It is the only movie after Ben Hur and Titanic to won 11 academy awards. All the three movies are must watch.

The movie is about two cops from Los Angeles who visit a small town in Alaska to solve a homicide investigation. Well, you can see there are great actors in the movie. The movie is a thriller and it is good to watch. The movie is not exceptional so if you are looking for something like that then this is not the movie for you. Although, there are great actors in the movie who have won academy awards previously.

Cast: Naomi Watts
Martin Henderson
David Dorfman

Well, it has been criticized dearly but it's okay to have a one time watch. I will not say it's superb or something but it was okay. I guess they have made a second part too, but I will limit myself to this. The story is based on a killer videotape, whoever sees, dies. Rest is suspense which I definitely won't break
