As with many Bollywood spy films, Yakeen spends a great deal of the first half building up the family drama, which drags the story out a bit. But the second half flies along with a pretty tight little spy story, with some groovy incidental music and a show-stopping number by Helen in the 'Club Ago Ago' nightclub. It amused me to see that the swinging backing band during this scene was billed as 'The Monkees'. ...

Jeffrey Katzenberg was right: 3D is the future of movies. USA Today interviewed Avatar director James Cameron about this new era of filmmaking, and the director revealed plans to bring a certain unsinkable hit back to theaters in 2012, this time in 3D: Titanic. Because of the success of Avatar — and now Alice in Wonderland — studios are scrambling to release as many big titles in 3D as possible. Thanks to computer technology, 3D ...

这是一年来,我看过的最讽刺的电影。它极尽所能讽刺了美军。 在电影中,美军为了更有效地击败敌人,找来了一批具有特异功能的人,训练他们用意识杀人。 简单说,就是让他瞪大眼镜。 盯着一只山羊。 然后,山羊就突然倒地,抽搐而死。 =========================== 看完这部电影,我突然觉得,自己也能写一个剧本。 剧本的开头是这样的: (镜头缓缓穿过紧闭的金属门,切入室内。门口有人站岗。) (那是一间空旷的、大得像篮球场一样的会议室,中间放着一张巨大无比的圆形会议桌。大概有20多人坐在桌旁,正在开会。有人在发表讲话,其他人在做笔记。) —— 同志们,目前的局势很严重,出现了许多不利因素。社会上有许多不好的风气,正在愈演愈烈。 (随着他的讲话,相应的蒙太奇镜头一一插入。) —— 有一张床可以睡觉,却还抱怨没有住房;明明知道中国地少人多,却还认为房价昂贵;手机中有淫秽信息,却不愿意电信公司审查短信;有高速的地铁可以乘坐,却嫌入口处的安检太麻烦;有股市和彩票可以赚钱发财,却还要求提高养老金和医疗保险;自己工作不努力,失业下岗,却要求政府负责;为了个人的一点小事,到处大吵大闹,却不知道保持社会稳定是每一个人的责任;每到逢年过节,都会有下基层的领导,却还说意见无法向上反映;每天晚上可以看免费的CCTV,却还想装卫星天线;网上有内容丰富、制作精良的新华网,却还要上Google。 (镜头切回到会场。发言者提高了语调。) —— 同志们,这些落后的思想,正在侵蚀群众,使得一部分人变得蛮不讲理,到处滋事煽动,成为社会的不安定因素。国际上的敌对势力,正在利用这些人来渗透、攻击、颠覆我们。长此以往,后果将不堪设想。 —— 同志们,新的时代对我们的执政能力,提出了新的挑战。我们亟需采用具有时代特征的新方法,加强对人民的教育,更好地领导人民。 (镜头一一扫过听众。他们还是在不断地做笔记,或者是一付若有所思的样子。) —— 同志们,为了适应这个高科技的时代,适应复杂多变的形势,适应许多以前没有出现过的情况,我们必须采用一些前所未有的手段。 —— 我们要达到人类灵魂的深处,从内部彻底教育那些思想落后的群众,彻底改造那些不安定分子。 (所有的听众都停了下来,抬起头,看着发言者。) (发言者一挥手,秘书小姐从门口走进来,向每个听众发了一份报告。) —— 大家拿到的报告,来自科技部、安全部、卫生部的联合工作小组。他们发现,全国有13个基因突变者,具备心灵震慑能力。简单说,就是当他们与别人双目相对,就能让对方接受他们的想法。 (屏幕上出现了一双睁开的眼睛的特写。眼神极为犀利。) —— 我们需要这些人,建立与群众心与心交流的渠道,让群众向我们交心,从心灵深处说服群众。 —— 只有这样做,我们的国家才能彻底保持稳定。我们才能挫败国内外敌对势力的进攻。 (片名《心灵战士》切入。背景音乐响起。) (画面切换,出现一行字。“献给在净化灵魂战线上工作的人们”。) …… …… 这个剧本怎么样? 我在后面还设想了一些情节。后来,哪怕是没有太阳的大冬天,路上所有人都带着墨镜,行迹匆匆,说话不看对方眼睛,因为害怕一看,自己的心就没了。再后来,这个城市中除了瞎子,大家都被人看过了……好像还挺有趣的,编剧看来是一个不错的职业。 对了,差点忘了声明。以上故事,纯属虚构。 (完)

You won't be able to make much out in the leaked video, but hey—there's audio! Here's the official synopsis, if you missed it last time: TRON: LEGACY is a 3D high-tech adventure set in a digital world ...

The film will definitely beat the previous record for this weekend of the year — $70 million, set by 300 in 2006.The film is notable as Burton’s first major 3D release. Despite the backlash from filmgoing traditionalists, it looks like 3D ...
