Movies with Theresa!! - Rio

Hello again. Been tried from usual stuff. Anybody having fun?
Sorry if this post feels too short.

Today, we're going to take a look at an animated movie, from the studio Blue Sky (those who worked for Ice Age)



RIO!!

Synopsis:
Blu was a rare species of bird that couldn't fly, then when he was sent out to meet a female species of his kind, he had to go through an adventure.

Genre:
Animation, Adventure, Comedy

Director:
Carlos Saldanha

Starring:
Jesse Eisenberg, Anne Hathaway, George Lopes, etc.

MPAA:
PG for mild off color humor. Change into G.

Release Date:
15 April 2011


Note: I add in a new section called release date, I forgot to add that section in other posts, from now on I promise to do that.

Rio did some advertising, one of them is having Angry Birds making one app featuring a Rio theme. At first me and sister doesn't know, but I noticed it first. Anyway, this looks pretty interesting it's on my watch list, that is, if the movie got in. The stars in the movies are quite notable as well, it'll be more interesting.

The movie haven't come out yet, so we don't know the rating. I hope it'll be good though, looks promising.

Thanks for reading this post! Next week I promise to give a longer post if I can manage!
Now, I also accept requests!!

Bu-bye! (*/TCG)

Movies with Theresa!! - Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Rodrick Rules

Hello! It's me Theresa again! Sorry for posting a little later than my usual time, been worn out.

Anyway, today we're going to do something different, that is Diary of Wimpy Kid: Rodrick Rules which came out TODAY (in USA)! Yes today! Trying to keep you all up to date faster!




Synopsis:
As Greg Heffley was entering a new grade, he must deal with his parents trying to make him and his brother bond.

Genre:
Comedy

Director:
David Bowers

Starring:
Zachary Gordon, Devon Bostick, Rachael Harris, Robert Capron, etc.

MPAA:
PG for some mild rude humor and mischief.


I've always been a fan of the book, I collect them all. Let's say that I find this book very entertaining. So, I've watched the first movie and it was entertaining but I actually expected more out of it. They add in stuff that wasn't in the book and I think it's great, it makes the movie worth more the watch. I enjoyed the movie. I was a bit reluctant when Hollywood came up with the idea at first, I have a different vision on how they're suppose to do it, but I think they did a good job. This movie is a must watch for me, I want to see if they've improved the Diary of a Wimpy Kid movie.

The movie has received mostly negative reviews (I think). Based on Rotten Tomatoes, the movie was rated 39%. Roger Ebert has not given a review for this movie, but he said the first movie was good.

Thank you for reading!!
Forgive me for making this post seems to short.

Movies with Theresa!! - Rango

Hello people! Today is Friday so it's time for Movies with Theresa!!
Also, PTC was held today, everyone happy with their grades?

Anyway, last week I wrote about I am Number Four, now I am writing about something more suitable for both girls and boys. It is...


RANGO!!!
Plus, I don't really know if this really appeals for both boys and girls.


Synopsis:
Rango was a normal house pet, but when he got lost, he stumbled across a western town named Dirt. Dirt needed a new sheriff so Rango became the sheriff. With that, came the adventure where he found out who he really was.

Genre:
Animation, adventure, and action

Director:
Gore Verbinski

Starring:
Johnny Depp, Isla Fisher, Timothy Olymphant, Abigail Breslin, etc.

MPAA:
PG for rude humor, language, action, and smoking.


So, Johnny Depp, that really caught my eye with this movie. The collaboration between Johnny Depp and Gore Verbinski (who also worked on Pirates of the Caribbean together) is something that also caught my eye. This movie seems to have a big comedy in it. This is definitely a must watch for me!

I was looking around for the behind the scenes footages and I find out that they used a unique way of recording the voices. They did it like a role play instead of making the actors record their voices inside of a studio.

Industrial Light & Magic also did the animation for this movie, making this their first ever animated movie! To people who don't know, Industrial Light & Magic is one of the biggest special effects company in Hollywood!

Anyway to people who are excited about this (just like me), it will be screening in Indonesia at around the 20th of April. Be patient!

Rango has received positive reviews. Based on Rotten Tomatoes, the movie is a certified fresh with a rating of 89%. Roger Ebert gave the movie a 4/4 stars! I wish that the movie will meet up my expectations!

Thank you for reading this section again!!
Comments on your way out, perhaps?

Movies with Theresa!! - I Am Number Four

Hello! Welcome to CH's Journalism blog!!
My name is Theresa and I'll be in charge for the movies section for this blog! Look forward for this part of the blog every Friday!
More things will come everyday, every week so stay tune for more stuff from me and my pals!

2011 is a great year for movies, many movies are coming out this year, prepare lots of money because most of them are screening in 3-D!!

For today it's something the girls will love...
I AM NUMBER FOUR. (Idea from Yunita)



Synopsis:
A race of aliens is in danger and eight of them were sent to earth. They have to be killed in order, number one until three were already killed, automatically they (Mogadorians, bad guys) have to come after number four who is living a life as if a normal human.


Genre:
Action, adventure, sci-fi, mystery, bit of romance.

Director:
D. J. Caruso

Starring:
Alex Pettyfer, Timothy Olyphant, Dianna Agron, etc.

MPAA:
PG-13 for intense sequence of violence and action, and for language



I am a fan of Sci-fi movies, but teen sci-fi movies? Not so much, though this movie deserves reconsideration since Michael Bay (Director of the Transformers movies) and Steven Spielberg are the producers. Another reason that may attract people to the movie is that this movie stars Alex Pettyfer and Dianna Agron, considering that both of them are in a relationship.

The movie is based on the books by Pittacus Lore. Since Harry Potter and Twilight movies are coming to an end, many people are expecting this to be the "next one".

I don't really have my hopes up high for this one, I'm not a big fan of this kind of movie, but I may watch it though.

I Am Number Four have received mostly negative reviews. Rotten Tomatoes have marked the movie a "rotten" by 30%. Roger Ebert also gave 1.5 (out of 4). It may looked bad with the ratings, but by the end of the day, it always comes to the personal favor of the person.

Thank you for reading my section!! Look forward for more from me!! Any comments on how I can improve is much appreciated!

Next week is something more suitable for both boys and girls!!
THANK YOU!!
