My Review:
So this is the first movie in a movieseries about a journalist that is writing or are in middle of a murdercase. And her job wants her to pruisut the story ofcourse. But the way she does things isnt always good, she can get a bit too close to stuff she shouldnt. And she put her nose where it doesnt belong at all. And she uses methods that isnt quite legal, to just to get a story. And sometimes that can be very dangerous, and even cost people their life.. She have to becareful so she doesnt end up hurt or even killed. But other than that, this was a movieset i kinda blind bought. But this movie was actually good IMO, had a good mix with drama\crime and a good deal of suspence really. I liked what they have done with this Swedish filmseries so far. I'm looking forward to check out the rest of them too! After 1 movie, i recommand you scandy's out there to check out that one atleast!

My Review:
Haha! I'm not going to write too much about this one. Just a few quick words.. Let me just start with what a great follow up this one was! It started in kinda the same way as the first one did. And after that all kinda went "downhill" for the 4 buddys. What a hilarious movie! A bit on the edge sometimes, but it just fit perfect with the rest of the storyline! I havent laughed that movie from a movie in a very long time! And what an amazing job the crew did with this! Everything from the music to the lines. Just awesome! This was a hilarious and great way to spend 1.4hours! And for the people that have watched the first one, and not this. JUST HAVE TO! And there's been talk about a movie number 3! God i hope so! Would be interesting to see how they would play that one out! Highly recommand anyways! Great fun!

Title: Madagascar
Year: 2011
Director:
Rating: NR
Length: 174 Min.
Video: Full Frame 1.33:1
Audio: Engelsk: Dolby Digital: 2-Channel Stereo
Subtitles: Engelsk










Stars:
David Attenborough











Plot:
Madagascar - The Land Where Evolution Ran Wild

An astonishing series revealing the extraordinary wildlife and dramatic landscapes of one of the world's most bizarre islands. Lying just off the coast of Africa, Madagascar is a land of misty mountains, tropcal rainforest and weird spiny desert scrub. Here the wildlife has evolved in splendid isolation to become strange and totally unique.

The series caputires, sometimes for the first time, the diverse and rare wildlife that inhabits this incredible land. It features amazing footage of lemurs - a monkey-like group of creatures made up of 100 different species unique to the island - but also reveals frogs that turn from brown to bright yellow, wasps that pluck tadpoles from tree-nests and fish that swim upside down, as well as following the romantic life of the world's tiniest chameleon. Madagascar is an ambitious and intimate portrait of a fascinating but perilously fragile island - one of the few places left on Earth where there are still wildlife mysteries waiting to be discovered.












Extras: None











My Review:
Ah, this documentary i got real cheap at one of the local stores. And for me it looked quite interesting.
I do like the animal\wildlife documentary's. And this is one of the best i've seen so far actually. Its a few real good storys about the Madagascar wildlife and nature. And the beautiful scenery aswell. And the teller in this doc, did a great job IMO. A very interesting docu, and i found it amazing with the things i learned. Its a great documentary about the animals, the nature and how they survive in a place like that really. This is a great documentary by BBC EARTH, that i recommand everyone that like or are interested in those kind of movies\docus. IMO

My Review:
Going in to this movie, i didnt know what to expect really, except what i've seen on trailers and what people had been telling me. And i'm a big fan of both the original Spiderman movies and comics. So me and my younger brother just checked it out. And i got to say that i really loved it. Loved what they did with it, liked how they kept the story kinda fresh with new people and "a bit different" story, but still it reminded us\me of the first movie. And i really liked the changes too, with the badguy etc. And of course the makeup and special efects crew did one amazing job! This was a great and refreshing movie IMO. A movie that i recommand you all to check out! Really good one. If they decide to make a new series, i would watch the 2nd and 3rd movie aswell. Based on what i saw tonight.

I've heard some of the casting rumors for a weeks now.  Evidently Mary Jane is supposed to turn up at least briefly, but I can't remember who was mentioned for maybe being cast in the role.  There was a mention of the villain too..can't remember who for that part either.

My Review:
Well, this was a bit different that i expected it to be. But none the less, a good movie. A good mix betwen a musical and dramady imo. A few good old classic songs, a allright story. And fun to see the actors in a bit different element than i'm used to see them in. (Im not Tom Cruises bigest fan at all) but he did a good job actually. I would say that this was a good musical movie with some mixed stuff in it. A movie that i recommand you guys to check out, if you enjoy a good musical or good music! I enjoyed it!
