Spy kids is an adventure and action movie.
Two secret agents Gregorio Cortez(Antonio Banderas) and Ingrid Cortez (Carla Gugino) fall in love and marry.They have 2 children Carmen Cortez(Alexa Vega) and
Juni Cortez (Daryl Sabara).Gregorio Cortez discovers a third brain.Fegan Floop and his group of men kidnap Gregorio Cortez and Gregorio Cortez and ask them where the third brain is.Floop wants the brain so that he can control the whole world.Then their children Carmen Cortez and Juni Cortez take an adventure to rescue their parents.

This movie is wonderful.The children who acted in this movie are cute.They have done well.I liked the chasing scene in the movie where the children get into a vehicle and they are pursued by Floop's men.The way in which children deal with enemy robots is interesting, they chew an electric gum and throw on them making them immobilized.There are also some humorous scenes in this movie.I liked the last scene in which all robots are made good and they start thrashing the villains by throwing them into air.The technology used in this movie is excellent. A car is changed into submarine on going into water.Even though this movie will be liked by all.I think it is best suited for children.

Rambo first blood part 2 review


Rambo first blood part 2 is sequel to first part of Rambo.Rambo(Sylvester Stallone ) is released from prison to rescue American prisoners of war.But first he is told by Marshal Murdock (Charles Napier) to only take photos of prisoners but not rescue the prisoners.Rambo reluctantly agrees.Then he is taken into Vietnamese jungles.There he meets Co(Julia Nickson).Then he tries to rescue prisoners of war, But he is caught and tortured by a Soviet officer Podovsky (Steven Berkoff).Rambo somehow escapes with help of Co.Rambo falls in love with Co.But when Co is killed by Vietnamese soldiers.He gets mad and starts killing each and every soldier of Vietnamese and soviet.At last he succeeds in rescuing prisoners of war and brings them into America.

This is one of my favorite movies.The action scenes in the movie are simply mind blowing.Particularly i liked 2 scenes in this movie.One in which one Vietnamese soldier starts firing at Rambo and then Rambo gets angry and just puts an arrow having missile into his bow and releases it making his enemy into pieces.The other scene is where Rambo pretends to be dead and kills Podovsky.The storyline is good.Sylvester Stallone has done wonderful job as Rambo.I am amazed at how these Hollywood directors create war environment,explosives etc.The screenplay of this movie is great.This movie is worth watching.

This movie is good.There are good romantic scenes in this movie between Michael and Kim.I liked the first scene where Michael and Kim meet and Kim places Michael's hand over her chest.Another scene which i liked in the movie is in the car when Michael and Kim are sitting, Kim has got wet in the rain, then Michael says that since she is fully exposed he should not look at her, but she says that she will feel insulted only if he does not look at her in that condition.The story shown in the movie is somewhat closer to real life because some men after getting married and having children feel bored of life.Rachel Bilson who acted as Kim in this movie is very beautiful.I liked this movie.

Conan the destroyer review


This movie stars Arnold Schwarzenegger.Arnold is my favorite hero.Conan (Arnold) is asked by Queen Taramis to go on an adventure to get a Gem and a horn that can rise Dagoth.In return Conan is promised that his lover Valeria who is dead will be alive again.Conan along with his friends Malek,wizard Akira,warrior Zula and princess Jehnna and Bombatta goes on the adventure.Queen Taramis is evil lady and she wants princess Jehna to be sacrificed to arise evil god dagoth and also tells Bombatta to kill Conan after his task is completed.Will Taramis succeed in sacrificing Jehna?Will Bombatta kill Conan?To know these you have to watch the movie.

This movie is nice,though the plot is somewhat boring and predictable.Conan the destroyer is less interesting than Conan the barbarian.There are scenes involving magic,evil resurrection etc.The last fight between Arnold and Dagoth is nice.Olivia D'Abo as Jehna is beautiful.You can see Arnold showing his huge muscles in this movie.The costumes and sets used in the movie are nice.I was also touched by last scene in which Arnold refuses to marry Jehna and goes in search of his own kingdom.

Operation dumbo drop review


Operation dumbo drop is inspired by a true story.This movie is about an elephant named dumbo being moved from south Vietnam to a village in north Vietnam.
A village that US army is using to spy on Ho Chi Minh Trail has its elephant killed by Vietnamese army.So the villagers are angry with American forces since they are responsible for elephant's death.The american soldiers decide to get another elephant as replacement for the dead elephant.They convince their chief for this mission.They go to south Vietnam and give 50000 and buy an elephant named dumbo.They are accompanied by a small boy who controls the elephant.The remaining story is about how the elephant is moved from that place to destination village and difficulties faced by american army in moving the elephant.

This movie is funny and interesting.From beginning to end you will not feel bored at any time.The elephant has done very well in this movie.I liked this movie very much.I liked the scene in which elephant is taken into aircraft and put into sleep by giving anesthetic.But it wakes suddenly causing the aircraft to shake.But somehow aircraft is controlled.I also liked scene in which american forces and elephant are moving in boat when suddenly Vietnamese army attack.Then american forces call their army and tell them to send a missile and kill the Vietnamese army.They succeed in doing so.I also liked the last scene where american forces land the elephant in parachute.The loyalty and friendship shown among the american forces is heart touching.This is a wonderful movie to watch.

Kiss of the Dragon is an action movie directed by Chris Nahon and starring Jet Li.This is one of good movies of superstar Jet Li.Liu(Jet li) is a chineese intelligence agent and is assigned the task of helping in catching a chineese Don.But things go against him when inspector Richard kills the chineese don and accuses Liu of killing the chineese don.Now Liu has to prove his innocence.He comes across Jessica(Bridget fonda) who was present at the time when Richard killed the chineese don.So he asks Jessica to come and tell that he is innocent.Jessica tells him that if he suceeds in getting back her daughter Isabel from Richards she will come and tell that he is innocent.Liu agrees to that and goes to kill Richards and get Isabel.There is wonderful fight where Liu fights Richards men and kills Richards at last suceeding in saving Isabel.He then takes Isabel to Jessica.

This movie is interesting and full of action.You can see Jet li's power packed fights.One thing i like in Jet Li's movies is that he does not have much physical contact with heroine though he appears to like her.I liked this movie very much.Bridget fonda is looking beautiful in this movie.

What a wonderful movie to watch.I salute the creativity of writer who has prepared this story.The story of Mummy is very interesting.Every scene in the movie is interesting.You will wonder what is going to happen next.The background music in the movie is very good, you will find feel very thrilling with that music.You may also get frightened with this music.Brendan Fraser has done very well in his role.I did not understand how could a powerful man like imhotep be killed by Rick having no powers.I liked scenes in which rick fights with imhotep.The graphics used in this movie are very good.
