Monsters vs Aliens

With the voices of stars like Reese Witherspoon, Kieffer Sutherland, Hugh Laurie, Stephen Colbert Monsters vs Alien is the latest 3D movie by Dreamworks.

The main character is Susan Murphy, voiced by Witherspoon. She is hit by a meteorite on her wedding day and after the accidents she grows, literally and becomes a giantess. No need to tell you that the wedding was called off.

After the incident she is taken to a secret government facility where other "monsters", Dr Cockroach, the Missing Link, Insectosaurus and B.O.B., are kept away from the public in order not to scare the general population. The U.S. government renamed Susan "Ginormica". I have to tell you Ginormica does look scary from certain angles. Of all the monsters B.O.B. is probably the funniest and most memorable character.

Susan and the others will work and fight together to save the earth from evil alien invaders.

Needless to say it's better to go watch this movie at iMax to fully enjoy the 3D thrills.

Clearly MVA is for kids, they might enjoy the action and the humor but adults might not find it quite as exciting as the story is not compelling.

Monsters vs. Aliens runs 94 minutes. You can watch the trailer below

Tansformers 2 and 3

The sequel title Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen is coming to theaters early in the summer on June 24 starring Megan Fox and Shia LaBeouf. The third installment is already scheduled for July 1, 2011 though a script has yet to be written for the third film. In fact Transformers 3 will only happen if the Transformers 2 movie is successful this summer otherwise Paramount and DreamWorks will probably not go forward with the project.

The first film came out in 2007 the second one is coming out two years later and the third one is scheduled four years after the first one in 2011 if everything goes as planned.


I rewatched the first Transformers on Sunday. It's a great movie, they are very few things I don't like about it in fact. If you compare it to a movie like Pirates of the Caribbean: at World's End, that's one franchise that should have stopped at the second film.

MacGyver movie

MacGyver is coming back. The incredibly resourceful secret agent is coming back not on TV but in a feature film. The MacGyver movie is in the works. The script has yet to be written but the concept and the character are already there.

I doubt we will not be having though it would be great but I least they could bring him back in another role.

Richard Dean Anderson later starred in the series Stargate Atlantis and Stargate SG-1. He also starred in the short lived series Legend on UPN.
