My Top Five Movies of 2008

5. ) Quantum of Solace- Daniel Craig's second outing as James Bond continues where Casino Royale left off. It's nice to see Bond once again in a high octane non stop Action. Although James Bond doesn't have any gadget here, still the movie delivers and it didn't failed to impress moviegoers and my self..

4.) Kung Fu Panda- Basically this movie is my kid's choice for this year. Po and Company gave a hilarious performance. Could give Shrek a run for his money.

3.) Iron Man – Summer's first blockbuster hit and the movie that revitalizes Robert Downey's career. This comic book hero turn to movie can be lined up alongside Batman and Spiderman, great cast and script, nice effects,pace and action.

2.) The Dark Knight - Batman does it again, almost becoming the highest grossing movie of all time. The Dark Knight broke almost every box office records everywhere. Also Heath Ledger's performance as the Joker somehow got others curious to watch this movie. But it's definitely one of the Best Batman movie. I can also consider it as one of the best sequel, better than Batman Begins.

1.) Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull- I admit that I am BIG Indiana Jones, seeing the daredevil archaeologist in the big screen after nineteen years was such a great feeling. The action, the adrenalin was still there. Although Indy's a little bit old, couldn't wait for his next adventure.

How about you? What's your top five movies of 2008 ? Feel free to comment.

Can't get enough of IRON MAN

IRON MAN Rules!!!!!

I've just seen the movie IRON MAN and what can I say, the movie is so damn great.

It's seldom for a comicbook hero character to movies, to be that AWESOME.

IRON MAN has started the Summer Movies with a big big bang. All of his guns are blazing hot.
Although I've said last year that Robert Downey Jr. may not be perfect to play IRON MAN, I'm gonna change it. He is perfect for the role.

The movie tells the origins of Iron Man.How a greedy billionaire turns to dedicated hero.Tony Stark was held captive by terrorist from Afghanistan.And while being held captive, genius Tony Stark manages to create a weapon and manages to escape his abductees.

Upon returning home, he decided to cancel the operation of Stark Industries in Weapon Making which irked the character played by Jeff Bridges. Who by the way is unrecognizable in this movie with his bald head and beard.

Playing his secretary is the beautiful Gwyneth Paltrow, with Ms. Potts help.Tony Stark manages to resurrect himself by replacing the circle ( this is the one I think where he gets his energy and strength) in the middle of the his chest, which was planted on him while he was still being held captive.

I don't wanna be a spoiler for you, but all I can say is that the final battle between Iron Man and his nemesis is one of the movies highlight.

I bet that Iron Man, although still early, will have a run for his money in next year's academy award for visual effects. If Transformers didn't win it, I'm pretty sure this time Iron Man will win it.

With a great script,great visual effects Iron Man is one big movie which the kid will also like.OH I think this one's headed for a sequel with a hint on War Machine and Samuel L. Jackson in cameo role as a black Nick Fury. Can't wait for the sequel.

First glimpse at IRON MAN

Following the success of other Marvel superheroes, Iron Man is the next Marvel Comic Book Hero to jump to the big screen. Due out in May next year.

I think it's about time that they bring this superhero into the big screen with the advancement in CGI technology. Costume was created byAcademy Award winner Stan Winston which remains faithful to the comic books.

It stars Robert Downey Jr. as playboy industrialist Tony Stark and Gwyneth Paltrow as his assistant. Directed by Jan Favreau who also directed ELF. Let's just wait if Robert Downey Jr. fit the bill for Iron Man. With a great script and how the film is made, expect Iron Man to break box office record next year.
