A "Beast" Hiding from the "Adjustment Bureau" is a "fighter"



Another week has arrived. Happy Women Day everyone!!!!!

This weekend might be my last Cinema Marathon as most of the OSCAR distribution run is ending.

This weekend we see the premiere of a few super new movies for the spring season leading into summer. Rango is up…… topping US Box Office……. Which will be on the review later next week.

The other 2 movies that came out last Friday are The Adjustment Bureau and Alex Pettifer’s Beastly

Both Matt Damon and Alex Pettyfer have 2 movies on the marquee at this very moment.

The second movie coming from the new star Alex is Beastly, a modern twist on the beauty and the Beast story. Also starring the talent Vanessa Hudgens, who would join the rank of Alex with 2 movies by next month when sucker punch comes out.

Alright, it’s an old story retell. Pretty much the same format as the animated Beauty and the Beast 20 years back, it is a good feeling, humorous, young movie to start with. It is a great movie for the family or those who like to look at good looking guys or girls.

The Adjustment Bureau, the feel of the sets is almost the same as Inception. It’s a small scale, action fiction. As the movie is adapted from a short story, you’ll find that the storyline are pretty simple and straight forward. Matt Damon is a likely pair to Emily Blunt. And the script is pretty well written that created a very believable chemistry between the two on their every encounter. It is a smart movie that will lift up your spirit with a twist. I like the fresh air and find that I would love to know the screen writer for the movie afterwards.














The latest OSCAR encounter for me is The Fighter. Though the movie didn’t take home the awards for best movie and only got the attention for the supporting role. I find that in all movies that is nominated for the awards, this one deal with the reality of a hush life most intimately and it tells a very personal story with great honesty. A dysfunction family, a dysfunction community, a dysfunction team, that actually work in the end to the better part. Sometimes a little consistency and a little persistency can go a long way. We all get roughen up by the Almighty sometimes but love does help and assist every form, even when they are very distorted sometimes. It still brings the good out of us when apply.
