Stupid, fun and very cool - that's all you can say about the "Expendables" of the 2010 on the merits. Sylvester Stallone made a perfect action movie of 80's. More precisely, it is just another perfect fighting film stuffed with all the things: dictatorship, the drug business, a beauty, a lot of bad guys, some cool guys, kick ass. The trick is how to kick… Stallone, of course, chooses the good old style 80's. Very vigorously after endless ballet pas with slaps those exchanging modern world virtual subtle characters of the newest generation of flying across the screen in the manner of grasshoppers. "The Expendables" movie stands firmly on its feet…

The sixth part of the adventures of Harry Potter was filmed by David Yates, who filmed the Order of the Phoenix, too. As before, there were reductions in the source material: the books themselves, as we recall, were getting thicker from volume by volume. But the fascination it has not been affected: the love of suffering young wizards magically contrasts with the overall dark background, where there extreme fear of the meeting with Volan de Mort rules. The comic couple, Ron-Hermione amuses the audience perfectly, while their companions in misfortune, Harry and Ginny honestly work out the necessary romantic part. And yet each new movie about Potter is more horrifying, sad and fantastic than the previous one: all these options are caused by the development of the story and by unlimited technical possibilities of the modern cinema.
