What do The A-Team, Charlie's Angels, Dragnet, Dukes of Hazzard, Richie Rich, Sex and the City, Get Smart, Jackass: The Movie all have in common? They have crossed over from television series to feature length movie. While some have been more successful than others, each can claim its own piece of the entertainment market.OX networks 21 Jump Street was a novel concept that involved teenage looking "cops" who could penetrate the high schools and search out drug dealers and others who attempt to corrupt teenagers back in the 80's and still do even today! Original stars from the 80's version of Jump Street included Johnny Depp, Richard Grieco, Peter DeLouise, and Holly Robinson Peete who each have since had successful careers. The new version stars Jonah Hill (Moneyball, Get Him to the Greek) as Schmidt and Channing Tatum (Haywire, The Dilemma) as Jenko. Both young men look younger than their years and with less than perfect reputations find they have the opportunity to make up for their past by becoming police officers and fighting perps that would lead teens into drugs and corruption. In other words just like the 80's version but with different players.

Sucker Punch movie makes five girls the somewhat reluctant heroines of an epic action fantasy drawn from the main character's imagination. Baby-Doll has been wrongly confined in a mental institution, but she uses her powers of mind to escape her grim circumstances. When her dreams and fantasies no longer console her, Baby-Doll persuades four other girls to join in her attempt to escape captivity. Emily Browning stars as Baby-Doll; Jena Malone, Vanessa Hudgens, Jamie Chung, and Abbie Cornish complete the well-chosen ensemble cast. The five of them leave no doubt about the meaning of "girl power.""Director Zack Snyder describes Sucker Punch as "Alice in Wonderland with machine guns." In the course of their adventures, the girls engage everything from samurais to serpents in fantastic warfare, drawing from a robust virtual arsenal. The five sisters-in-arms face difficult choices about how much feel willing to sacrifice in order to stay alive. Wiseman, however, gives sage guidance, always suggesting that if the girls survive, their journey will set them free. Co-director Deborah Snyder brings the flight of fantasy back down to earth, saying, "In the end, it's about this girl's survival and what she needs to do to be able to cope."

I'll be back, he promised in a 1984 sci-fi action movie The Terminator , and we see how California ex-governor keeps his promise: "The Last Stand" features exactly that kind of Arnold Schwarzenegger as we have remembered since the times of The Terminator and Commando. His character Ray Owens is a sheriff in small peaceful town on the USA-Mexican border, reluctantly involved into the last stand of local policemen against the most wanted drug kingpin who just spectacularly escaped from FBI and now heading to the Mexican border in order to slide abroad as soon as possible speeding above 200 Mph on his Corvette ZR1 with a hostage in a tow. But Ray Owens is not just a sheriff, he is the former FBI anti-drug department officer recently retired after some bungled operation (and, what is more important, he is also ex-Terminator as we know). Of course, he could not stand aside, and this is where bloody massacre begins. We'll see Arnold Schwarzenegger with shotgun blowing out enemies brains; we'll see him with monstrous machine gun doing the same, etc. Furthermore, aside of these "special features" we will se definitely brilliant cast of actors: Rodrigo Santoro, Zach Gilford, Genesis Rodriguez, Forest Whitaker, Jaimie Alexander, Eduardo Noriega, Luis Guzmán, Johnny Knoxville – an exciting list, isn't it? However the most serious thing you need to know that this movie is the first American action film directed by Kim Ji-woon, a talented Korean cinematographer, worldwide known for his masterpieces: "The Good, the Bad, the Weird", "A Bittersweet Life" and "I Saw the Devil."

Exterior shots at Manhattan's Trump Tower highlight the theme of this well written and acted film and the stellar cast brings a story of revenge to life with humor and dedication. Victims of a Ponzi scheme perpetrated by one of the residents are brought together with one thing on their minds: revenge! The plan is for these staff members of the high rise to rob the penthouse apartment of the man who stole their life savings and recoup some money and their pride too.tars include Ben Stiller (Tropic Thunder, Night at the Museum) is Josh Kovacs, Eddie Murphy (48 Hrs, Daddy Day Care) is Slide, Matthew Broderick (Ferris Bueller's Day Off, Brighton Beach Memoirs) is Jack Fitzhugh, Casey Affleck (Good Will Hunting, Chasing Amy) is Cole Howard, Alan Alda (Same Time Next Year, MASH) is Arthur Shaw, the man who considers the apartment staff as hourly and expendable.ow they get even with Shaw is entertaining because we all love getting even with those who only take but never give back. And it makes it seem even better than sending someone to prison. The Ponzi scheme was named after Charles Ponzi who made millions from fake investments he sold to the unsuspecting.

Tommy Wirkola's Hansel and Gretel: Witch Hunters storyline is set the fifteen years after the events described in Brothers' Grimm book "Hansel and Gretel" which was written in 1812. The story of Grimm's characters, two siblings Hansel and Gretel, is well known around the world. Two children were left deep in the forest by their merciless father and stepmother provoked him to do such a horrible thing. After the days of wandering and starving, siblings have encountered a strange house built of gingerbreads, cakes and caramel. Hungry children began to eat the house walls when "very old woman" came out of house and greeted poor children, welcoming them to enter her abode, promising to feed them and give them a rest in soft and clean beds. The reality was that "very old woman" was nothing more than a ordinary witch willing to cook and eat Hansel and Gretel. However, smart siblings recognize her true intentions and happily escape home outwitting the old with by luring her into the oven. Besides this, they have stolen most of her gold, making them and their father incredibly rich (thanks to God their evil stepmother were dead by unknown reason by this time.) Coming back to the movie, after the fifteen years Hansel (Jeremy Renner) and Gretel (Gemma Arterton) became the professional witch hunters equipped by the last word of modern warfare industry of those times: pneumatic shotguns, arbalests etc. The nice pair was hired by the Mayor of Augsburg to track down and slay the most powerful witches of that region. This easy at the first look task, is going to be much more complicated as the local Sheriff, named Berringer (Peter Stormare), steps into this business. The movie is colorful by all the meanings: the horror, action, black humor and awesome witches are united in one watchworthy story – what could be better? As per witches, they are really great. Just imagine Monique Ganderton, Joanna Kulig, Ingrid Bolso Berdal, Zoe Bell as the 3D-enchanced furiously powerful godless creatures and Renner with Arterton exterminating them. Huh?

Revival of predation franchise, announced by Robert Rodriguez, featuring in The Losers as a writer and producer, became not so spectacular as it was waiting for. For the movie directed by Nimrod Antal we are expecting something more than running through the woods in the style of "Rambo: First Blood" and in a spirit of divination "who will die next." The maximum that allowed himself to Rodriguez is sadly growing number of corpses, a little red and green blood and uncertain statement that predators are the people themselves, supported by a quote from Hemingway. Statement by the way, in this case, is little bit controversial, since a good half of the time most of the earthlings saves and covers each other: like in the best tradition of some honest and not always exciting team play.
