Shrek Forever After & Salt..
Watched these 2 DVDs the past 2 days..
Shrek Forever After - The Final Chapter
A bored and domesticated Shrek pacts with deal-maker Rumpelstiltskin to get back to feeling like a real ogre again, but when he's duped and sent to a twisted version of Far Far Away -- where Rumpelstiltskin is king, ogres are hunted, and he and Fiona have never met -- he sets out to restore his world and reclaim his true love. Written by IMDb Editors
My comments: Relatively entertaining & funny! A good fun fairytale for the family, and a wonderful end to a saga.
Comparing this with Toy Story 3, I must say Shrek Forever After has done a good job but nothing beats Toy Story 3 as still the best animation summer blockbuster & #1 Animated Film of The Year 2010!
Salt
Evelyn Salt is a CIA agent and highly respected by all, including her boss, Ted Winter. Out of the blue, a Russian spy walks into their offices and offers a vital piece of information: the President of Russia will be assassinated during his forthcoming visit to New York City to attend the funeral of the recently deceased U.S. Vice President. The name of the assassin: Evelyn Salt. Concerned about the safety of her husband, who she cannot contact, she goes on the run. Winter refuses to accept that she is a mole or a double agent but her actions begin to raise doubts. Just who is Evelyn Salt and what is she planning?
My comments: An exciting & keeps-you-on-the-edge-of-your-seat movie!
And as usual, Angelina Jolie succeeds in playing yet another female action hero role as Salt. The question of where Salt's loyalties lie is the true source of tension and Jolie plays it cool, gaining and dismissing the audience's trust several times over.
The action scenes were sharply directed. However, I personally feel that the stunts performed by Angelina Jolie added a cheesy, fanciful element to what would have been an entirely too serious movie.
The first 40 minutes are fast and furious as Salt evades her fellow agents by any means necessary but not to be outdone, the rest of the film takes a left turn and continues to surprise with some serious fisticuffs, gun-play and high-speed car chases.
Admittedly, for all its skill and enthusiasm, Salt's finale is a little over-the-top and it wanders into well-worn ground without knowing when to stop.
Aside from this minor gripe, Salt is a well-directed action movie that delivers us a potential new franchise & an intriguing lead character.
