Let’s check out the latest movies in town! I’m not being a movie spoiler here. But let me just give you a brief overview on what to expect with some of the latest films that are shown in West Sussex.
KICK-ASS
This 117 minute movie directed by Matthew Vaughn revolves around the nerdy student Aaron Johnson who loves graphic novels and decided to become a superhero one day. He called himself “Kick-ass” and discovered that it is not good to dress up in a costume while trying to attack two armed guys. But then, he caught the attention of two other costumed-heroes played by Nicholas Cage and his daughter Chloe Moretz. He also came to meet the major gangland boss played by Mark Strong who decided to eliminate the problem. The action is directed well and is very suave. Movie critiques rate it as Four out of five stars. Overall, the film is clever and filled with delightful comic moments.
THE GREEN ZONE
Directed by Philip Greengrass, starring Matt Damon, Yigal Maor and Said Faraj. This 115 minute film is more than just a documentary about the war in Iraq mixed with dramatic action. The grainy night-time shots provid the war zone atmosphere. As shown in the movie, many Iraqis are deeply concerned with their country even if there is extreme difficulty in imposing government factions. The movie is said to be a massive project and you will really believe and feel that you are in the heart of a war zone. As rated, it had Three out of Five stars.
THE BOUNTY HUNTER
The 110 minute film featuring Jennifer Aniston and Gerald Butler presents a modern-day classic from the 1950’s and 1960’s. Directed by Andy Tennant, the story runs in the idea of an estranged couple rekindling their love from a passionate guy who batters and bruises women’s hearts and a woman who is stubborn and work-orientated. The Chemistry between Aniston and Butler is overwhelming. The movie has gone through a lot of criticisms but it still draws out large crowds who want a bit of entertainment, decent music, and a romantic comedy with added excitement. For this, the film was rated Three out of Five stars.
SHUTTER ISLAND
Directed by Martin Scorsese, this 138 minute film starring Leonardo DiCaprio, Mark Ruffalo, Ben Kinglsey and Max von Sydow features the story of US Marshals who arrive on the island which is home to the criminally insane. It was their job to find an escaped prisoner. The director’s style is a tribute to the thriller films of the 40s and 50s with a very sharp and well-directed plot which will keep you on the edge of your seat. The music also creates a tense atmosphere which adds more excitement. To end with, this has Four out of Five stars.
