MORT LORS DE FUNÉRAILLES (2010)

Si vous voulez savoir sur un enterrement qui réunit des familles, regarder son film. Cette comédie révèle les saints et pécheurs, anges et démons, le sain et fou. Un homme est mort et c'est probablement la seule occasion où tant de membres n'oubliez pas l'autre. Certains d'entre eux apportent des sourires à nos visages ; d'autres nous faire froncer les sourcils profondément.

Comme je l'ai dit, qu'un homme est mort ; Cependant, il ya ce squelette qui a sauté juste sortir du placard quand son amant de '', Frank, révèle leur affaire—et il n'est pas du tout agréable car son amant est un homme et un nain et il demande une somme de 30.000 dollars ou il montrera Aaron's mère ses photographies. Chantage est à un enterrement. À mon avis, ce nain est un diable de l'enfer ; un dévoreur envoyé par Satan lui-même, juste au moment où Aaron Barnes (Chris Rock) cherche à avoir un enfant et acheter une maison. Mais Aaron'frère de s, Ryan, n't semblent aider du tout.

En parlant de Ryan (Martin Lawrence), ce mec est un écrivain et aussi pompeux qu'il insulté une flotte de passagers en classe économique comme un passager de première classe. Pourtant, il est révélé que lui-même est cassé '' et donc ne peut pas même contribuer aux coûts et toujours fait des promesses qu'il ne peut pas livrer même. Ce mec a fait tellement de blagues sans humour. Parfois, je me demande si ça vaut encore qualifiant un frère si il se distancie de sa propre famille. Je déteste ce gars.

Aaron Barnes, ce mec me marrer avec sa personnalité. Mais il y a quelques défauts avec ce mec. Tout d'abord, comment a-t-il été assez stupide pour laisser son roman sur une table basse, si elle n'était pas encore prêt à être lu ? Qu'est-il arrivé au bon sens ? Deuxièmement, Norman essayé de l'arrêter de faire entrer le catatonique Frank à la salle de bain où Russell était, ahem, prenant un dépotoir. Encore Aaron ne pouvait pas penser à quelque chose mieux qu'aux reproches Norman pour permettre l'utilisation de Russell la salle de bain. Pourquoi n'essayez-vous pas transportant Russell à l'étage quand il est dans un fauteuil roulant et doit se rendre immédiatement? !

Plusieurs incidents se produisent lors de l'enterrement, et je me demande si l'acteur dans le cercueil a subi des blessures réelles. Il y a ce gars nommé Oscar qui involontairement prend un comprimé de valium et souffre de ses effets. Il est déjà détesté par quelques-uns et fait déjà face à des représailles plus quand il renverse le cercueil. Il faut être franc : les réactions ont été unanimement féroces, mais Aaron's était hilarant. Il jette plusieurs mots en colère et toujours fait mention de célébrités, ici, puis partir. Et lorsque Frank chantage Aaron, Ryan s'oppose à lui comme si il étaient aux prises. Vous ne pouvez pas manquer cela !

Alors là's oncle Russell (Danny Glover): il est grognon et inaccessible. Son neveu vient de mourir et il veut voir ces funérailles à travers, mais ne voit pas cela comme normal. Il ne rend pas son effort pour lever beaucoup plus d'humour dans ce film, mais une scène, que je ne tiens pas à retenir est cette scène de la toilette. C'est trop extrême et révoltant, mais Norman fait-il une réaction vraiment choquante. Je ne veux même pas penser que ce tour de force était réel.

La qualité n'était pas atroce, juste comique. Mais certains moments m'a fait penser qu'ils étaient réels et dangereux, tout pour rendre les personnages' des réactions aussi réel que possible. Plusieurs acteurs de renommés et un script décent rend ce film un peu agréable à regarder.

Death At A Funeral (2010)

If you want to know about a funeral that brings families together, watch his flick. This comedy reveals the saints and sinners, angels and devils, the sane and insane. A man has died and this is probably the only occasion where so many members remember each other. Some of them bring smiles to our faces; others make us frown deeply.

As I said a man has died; however there is this skeleton that has just popped out of the closet when his ‘lover’, Frank, reveals their affair—and it is not at all pleasant as his lover is a man and a dwarf, and he demands a sum of $30,000 or he will show Aaron’s mother his photographs. Blackmail is in a funeral. In my opinion, this dwarf is a devil from hell; a devourer sent by Satan himself, just when Aaron Barnes (Chris Rock) is trying to have a child and buy a house. Yet Aaron’s brother, Ryan, doesn’t seem to help out at all.

Speaking of Ryan (Martin Lawrence), this guy is a writer, and so pompous that he insulted a fleet of economy class passengers as a first-class passenger. Yet it is revealed that he himself is ‘broke’ and so cannot even contribute to the costs, and always makes promises that he cannot even deliver. This guy makes so many jokes without humor. I sometimes wonder if it is even worth calling him a brother if he distances himself from his own kin. I hate this guy.

Aaron Barnes, this guy cracks me up with his personality. But there are some faults with this guy. Firstly, how was he so stupid to leave his novel on a coffee table if it was not yet ready to be read? What happened to commonsense? Second, Norman tried to stop him from bringing the catatonic Frank to the bathroom where Russell was, ahem, taking a dump. Yet Aaron could not think of anything better than to rebuke Norman for letting Russell use the bathroom. Why don't you try carrying Russell upstairs when he is in a wheelchair and has to go immediately?!

Several incidents happen during the funeral, and I wonder if the actor in the coffin suffered real injuries. There is this guy named Oscar who unwittingly takes a Valium pill laced with LSD and suffers from its effects. He is already hated by a few and already faces more reprisals when he knocks down the coffin. You have to be frank: the reactions were unanimously fierce, but Aaron’s was hilarious. He throws several angry words and always makes mention of celebrities (pop culture), here and then onwards. And when Frank blackmails Aaron, Ryan opposes him as though it were wrestling. You cannot miss this!

Then there’s Uncle Russell (Danny Glover): he is grumpy and unapproachable. His nephew has just died and he wants to see this funeral through, but does not see this as normal. He does make his effort to throw much more humor in this movie, but one scene I would not like to remember is this toilet scene. It is overly extreme and revolting, but Norman does make a genuinely shocking reaction. I do not even want to think this stunt was real.

The acting was not atrocious, just comedic. But certain moments made me think that they were real and hazardous, all to make the characters’ reactions as real as possible. Several renowned actors plus a decent script makes this movie somewhat enjoyable to watch.

Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within (2001)

Now here is a movie that was once hinted to be in the works. It appeared behind an instruction manual belonging to the Final Fantasy IX video game. I have been the one who would play Final Fantasy IX over and over again, often motivated to develop the skills and personalities of the characters, even before Final Fantasy X and X-2. Here is what I loved about the game, besides the game play: the humor, the character development, the plot(s), and even the timeline.
So after the movie came out, I had read about its performance in the box office and how it fared against the expectations of the critics and fans alike. So to see why this movie was an extremely detrimental bomb and received mixed reviews from critics, I am going to take the time to watch and examine this video game movie.

You have to be frank, the C.G.I. is visually superior even at the time of its making. The characters all look so realistic that they look like real people. This is near high-definition.

When I thought of a movie based on the video game series, I was thinking it was set in the same timeline as the video games themselves; but it is not. It is set in the year 2065 AD, the earth (no, it is not called Gaia) is ravaged by alien forces known as phantoms, and the human race is on the verge of extinction. The earth has a spirit called the Gaia--what a way to go--which can be harmed if it were subjected to laser blasts. Now most would call that implausible, and contrary to the stories from the Final Fantasy games.

Now let's look at the characters: we have Dr Aki Ross, Dr Sid, Captain Gray Edwards, Ryan, Jane, Neil, commanders from the Deep Eyes Squadron. Aki Ross is constantly having all these dreams in which phantoms are constantly plaguing her (she does reveal that they are swarming within her, weakening her will to ward them off).
Let me just be direct: most of these characters are thinner than paper; they lack the growing personalities of their video game counterparts; and there was probably little or no chemistry between any of the characters. Speaking of which, there was between Gray and Ross, but that seemed damp and lukewarm.
They don't even last long enough on screen as they killed off even before the film really starts to take off. We do not see much in them except that they bicker from time to time, or just do the job of annoying us by talking too much.

When I think of the Final Fantasy games, I think of journeys to certain locations where the role leads encounter dangerous enemies and engage in battles--battles where we see special skills, physical and magical, unleashed at incredible levels. But that is missing here, and we only see one kind of enemy, which doesn't work to my expectation as a Final Fantasy fan.
But at least there is hardly any fault to find in this movie; it's just the essential elements integral to the games this movie was based on.
