The Hunger Games: Mockingjay - Part 1 (2014)

A tremendously successful book Cloud Atlas, which was written by British author David Mitchell in 2004, is laid in the basement of next brothers Wachowsky's movie Cloud Atlas. Of course, no one has expected that Matrix's creators will film something small, but it seems like Cloud Atlas outperformed any possible expectation. The film is so advanced in the meaning of CGI graphics and complicity of the twisted plot that it's undoubtedly destined to become another milestone in cinema industry alongside with The Matrix and Avatar. The movie consists of six stories nailed on each other in some weird way. All of the showcased stories are suddenly interrupting at some point except the last one. The first story begins in 1850 on a frigate sailing across the Pacific Ocean; this story is read by the character of the next story as a diary in 1931 which story is read in letters by Luisa Rey a journalist California, 1975 who writes a manuscript for the novel which is read by Timothy Cavendish, in 21th century UK which story was laid in the center of documentary movie which is watched by Sonmi~451, a genetically-engineered clone in not so distant future who rises a rebellion against totalitarian regime which is lead to "The Fall", an apocalypses which destroys a civilization and forms a tribal societies on Earth. One of the tribesman watches a Sonmi~451's story as holographic movie on his "Orison" device. All the six stories which are nested in the film look like seamlessly connected with each other in the way we did not realize until the movie reaches its turning point, and then we travel back in time from story to story completing them in reverse order and realizing that "Everything is connected".

Starting as a psychological thriller half-baked in the early Shyamalan style, closer to the second hour "The Box" quietly and gradually reaches some incredible degree of psychedelic action that much similar to Kelly - Lynch and Kubrick. Absolutely not sparing the audience (even forgetting it), Richard Kelly continues to swing the flywheel of action, reeling him more and more new characters, then explaining that by entering into contradiction with itself, and at the last minute just shot at close plan. Plot of The Box, placed in the chaos of the decade. It is so layered, that it is absolutely pointless to discuss the ranking of importance raised by the director of the movie. However, merged into one crazy idea of science fiction of 70's, dozens of conspiracy theories, including human psychology and even his own biography, Richard Kelly still rules.

The Chronicles of Narnia: The Voyage of the Dawn Treader movie was released in 2010, the year of "Ironman 2," "Harry Potter 7", and "Tron: Legacy". So, the producers and director of "Chronicles of Narnia: Voyage of the Dawn Treader" clearly felt the pressure to deliver a visual masterpiece. Capitalizing on the special alchemy of 3D, they succeeded. "A painting engulfs Lucy and Edmund Pevensie and their cousin Eustace, taking them back to Narnia and stowing them away on sailing ship The Dawn Treader. The brave and somewhat precocious warriors battle a fierce collection of monsters and villains, resisting their own powerful temptations, as they join forces with Reepicheep, a warrior mouse, to save Narnia. The computer animators do so well with the Lion, the Mouse, and the fairy princess, viewers willingly suspend disbelief. Of course, a mouse can out-maneuver a chimera."The producers and director paid proper respect to C.S. Lewis, early twentieth century author and scholar, who penned the novel The Voyage of the Dawn Treader as one among his Chronicles of Narnia. Lewis, a leading authority on medieval quest romance, crafted his story according to the traditions and conventions of the hero's quest, and the movie wisely recreates his craftsmanship. The film-makers achieve an unlikely hybrid of medieval story and twenty-first century imagery. They left open the question, however: Would audiences overdosed on 3D graphics and epic adventures fill the seats for another one?

As a fifteen year old alien John Smith (from the planet Lorien) finds himself a fugitive fleeing dangerous enemies from the planet Mogadorian, a different race of aliens. "I am Number Four" is John's secret. But it's a lot to ask of such a young man and along with his guardian Henri (played by Timothy Olyphant) must keep on the run, moving from town to town. Music from Rockwell helps the suspense remain high as we hear "Somebody's Watching Me" play in the background. John Smith finds he has certain powers and that he is not the only teenage alien around the planet Earth. There were a total of eight and they were destined to die in order and one at a time. Now it is Smith's turn. I am number four is about deadly encounters and youthful desires as John Smith finds romance in Paradise, Ohio. But he cannot be "normal" because he is constantly being chased and is next in line to be eliminated. With companion and guardian Henri's help John finds his ability is growing and just maybe he can fight off the powerful forces that are after him.

Based upon the popular Hasbro game with the same name, Battleship is a movie filmed at the Hawaiian islands Oahu and Maui so expect some fabulous scenery! Also filming in Sherman Oaks, California and Baton Rouge, Louisiana the film depicts some really intense battle footage when aliens take potshots at the US Naval Fleet in the Pacific Ocean. "The Regents" are evidently part of an alien race that has descended here to use the ocean to build their own power source when they come into contact with our fleet of navy vessels. The story gives us a perspective from both sides so we not only can see where our troops have placed their ships but also can view the locale of those alien ships, just like the Hasbro game. With the assistance of the Science and Entertainment Exchange we can expect some realistic footage and logistics. Starring Taylor Kitsch (Snakes on a Plane, The Bang-Bang Club) as Alex Hooper, Liam Neeson (Schindler's List, Rob Roy) as Admiral Shane, and Alexander Skarsgard (Trust Me, 13) a Stone Harper and directed by Peter Berg (director of Virtuality, Hancock also as actor in Chicago Hope and Entourage)."

Burton's "Alice in Wonderland" preserved all the characters, elements of the plot and central themes of the books by Lewis Carroll, but a showcased the completely new story. Burton's "Alice in Wonderland" successfully did what Tim always loved to do: he created a wonderful world, a magical country on the verge of dream and reality. This is what the movie is valuable for. All those heroes, whom we know from Carroll's book, found in Burton's film an incredible realization. And of course, there is delicious Johnny Depp. Despite the fact that he played something alike in "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory", this work cannot nothing but outstanding.
