The Karate Kid

Battle of the Year: The Dream Team is American movie inspired by real life break-dance championship, a tournament like Olympic games for dancers is held every year in France. And most interesting fact is that Americans, who were standing at the origins of the break-dance haven't won Battle of the Year for fifteen years (what a shame!). This situation is to be changed by former b-boy Dante (Laz Alonso - Charlie DuChamp from Breakout Kings) who hires a basketball coach, Derrek, to make a team from a gang of unorganized teen-dancers. Derrek (played by Josh Holloway: Five, Stay Cool, Whisper) initially refuses the deal claiming that he is just former basketball coach, but finally accepts Dante proposition. As we see, Dante was right, a good coaching gives more than specialization. As it turns out B-boys were in need of discipline and raising the morale. The main competitors, Koreans have won lots of Battles of the Year before - their dancing potential and, what is more important, both the spirit and the will to win seem to be unbeatable. However, Derek's tactic to train boys like real men is paying off. His b-boys turn into a powerful dancing forces crew, a serious menace for the rest of the teams on Battle of the Year dance-ground.

The Blind Side tells a story about the black guy who has no father or mother, no relatives, and those who have do not want to burden their lives. And then one cold day he is taken to wealthy family, initially for one night, and then for life. or many it may seem strange how the family took a stranger, and no one dared to complain. The film shows that the both, husband and wife, are always present at school, sporting activities of their children and actively (but without fanaticism) are involved in their lives. Children, in their turn, respect their parents. And the Sandra Bullock's character has come a moment when she made everything she need for herself, but wanted to do something for good someone else, not just hand over a check for charity, but directly participate in making somebody's life better…

Whip Out! can be considered as the peak of thirty-year Barrymore's career: she finally got to the director's chair. Drew's debut is based on the memoirs of famous Los Angeles roller, who is was at war with parents who do not understand her fascination. And you will agree with them, while watching this movie. Shown in the best traditions of female colonies, broad-shouldered girls in short skirts are rolling in a circle at tremendous speed, giving kicks with heavy rollers, casting opponents of the playground. Fragile Ellen Page as a young skater-prodigy, causes an acute attack of sympathy, although her colleagues treat her delicately as far as possible.

If you are looking for the latest in "Bad News Bears" type of movies, you'd better look elsewhere. Moneyball is more about reality and taking risks and while based on the true story of Billy Beane's attempt to improve the odds of picking a top quality team of baseball players through use of computer programs to analyze and select the best for the job. Michael Lewis wrote the book in 2003 about a man who successfully tries to change the system and perhaps even change the game of baseball forever if the unorthodox methods used to select the team do actually work. top quality cast includes Brad Pitt (The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, The Fight Club) who is Billy Beane, Robin Wright portrays Sharon (A Christmas Carol from 2009, New York, I Love You), Jonah Hill (Just Add Water, Forgetting Sarah Marshall), and Academy Award Winner Philip Seymour Hoffman (The Invention of Lying, The Big Lebowski).

The first movie since In Line of Fire (1993) where Clint Eastwood plays not being a director of the film, Trouble with the Curve (2012) is a sport-drama film which story centers on aging basketball scout Gus (Clint Eastwood). There were the times when almost retired senior man was a legend of a baseball scouting. He recruited a world-famous Micky Mantle and Hank Aaron. However, those times are in the past, and a Gus's executives afraid that he stuck in dinosaur ages, saying "Nobody cares who scouted Hank Aaron anymore." So, it seems like Gus has to prove his professionalism at the dusk of his carrier. He has to start his last scouting voyage, which he decides to perform with his daughter Micky named after a baseball star he scouted many years ago (the role of Micky was performed by Amy Adams). During the tour they meet Johnny Flanagan (Justin Timberlake), a rival scout, which was scouted by Gus some time ago, and who has an eye on Micky (and that is Gus couldn't accept). Indeed, Gus and Johnny are good friends, and Micky couldn't stay between them. There is something more about Gus scouting trip – he has the eyesight problems making him impossible to successfully judge whether this or that player is promising or no. This is the work for Micky eyes, and this is a strange symbiosis of aging professional scout and his adoring daughter, who used to love baseball and now hates it seeing the treat to his father health. The script of Trouble with the Curve has come a long way to hit the screens (almost 15 years) which may indicate its was not good enough; but not in this case. When you are watching Clint Eastwood films one thing is sure, Clint always delivers.
