The Grand Budapest Hotel is a 2013 adventures of Gustave H, a legendary concierge at a famous European hotel between the wars, and Zero Moustafa, the lobby boy who becomes his most trusted friend. The story involves the theft and recovery of a priceless Renaissance painting and the battle for an enormous family fortune.

An absolute blast. Director, Wes Anderson's best movie in years, once again he dives us into a enjoyable, imaginative and stylistic world and has us enjoying every minute of it. A hilarious, heartfelt and wickedly loveable adventure with a cant-miss all-star cast who all give great and fun performances. Ralph Fiennes steals the show, he gives an outrageous and joyful performance that shines with the work of Peter Sellers. A grand and brilliant comic performance. Tony Revolori is an absolute delight. Revolori and Fiennes have excellent comic chemistry. Its a gorgeous and wonderfully structured piece of comedy heaven. An old-fashioned screw-ball comedy that's smart, zany and wholly original.

LIVE DIE REPEAT: EDGE OF TOMORROW

Edge of Tomorrow is really awesome! It's easily the best movie of the summer so far and you need to see it. An unlikely mix of Groundhog Day, Black Hawk Down, and Aliens, this is one of the most original sci-fi films of the past decade and makes Tom Cruise's previous film Oblivion, feel like a teaser trailer for this.
The mimics are the coolest aliens since...well, Aliens. The premise is equal parts smart, bizarre, and trippy, all while undermining the cliches of the sci-fi action genre. And let's not forget the actors, especially Cruise and Emily Blunt; you won't see a better action team in any film this year.
Strong characters, a great story, and stellar effects make Edge of Tomorrow a near perfect masterpiece. Director Doug Liman has more than redeemed himself for Jumper, making this the best film he's made since The Bourne Identity.

There is a good bit of humor in the movie and the performances of Cruise and Blunt are spot on, with good supporting work from Bill Paxton, who plays a very hard-headed sergeant.

Though lacking the overall conceptual sophistication of modern time-warping classics such as Looper and Inception, Edge of Tomorrow is still more than capable of applying an unshakable grip upon the viewer from start to finish.

From watching this movie, I would rate this movie 9/10! I really enjoyed every moment of it and would recommend you all to watch it.

Caroline’s view

At 1st October, 2014, a horror movie called ‘Annabelle’ has been on show. However this article is not talking about this horror movie but ‘Conjuring’. ‘Annabelle’ is a prequel of ‘Conjuring’, and they are both related. ‘Conjuring’ is talking about a curse made by a mother, who killed her son and curse to everyone that tried to take their land, afterward suicide. After some years, Perron family with five of their daughter bought the house and planned to live in the house, and the curse came to them. Their dag, Sadie, refused to get into the house and dead next morning with mystery. Afterwards, more horror things happened to this family, such as weird sounds with nobody awake, clapping and laughing in a dark and empty room, which makes this family full of nervous and fears. The family finally need to find Ed and Lorraine Warren, paranormal investigators, for help and save their family. With plenty of research, they figure out what was happening in this house and told Perron family that they have been cursed and it will last forever, even they move to another place to live. However Carolyn, the mother of Perron family, has been possessed and tried to kill two of her daughter. With help from Ed and Lorraine Warren, two daughters and Carolyn have been saved and suffered from the curse. If you wanna scream, it's a good choice.

Dawn of the Planet of the Apes

INTRODUCTION

The Dawn of the Planet of the Apes was released on the 10th of July 2014 in Australia and was a phenomenal movie I have watched this year. I expected this movie to be terrible and not live up to expectations of the fantastic sequel "Rise of the Planet of the Apes", however the movie lived to expectations and was amazing. Dawn of the Planet of the Apes uses fantastic story lines and magnificent CGI to portray the apes expressions and make the apes feel real. Dawn of the Planet of the Apes was directed by Matt Reeves, and the cast consists of Andy Serkis (Caesar), Jason Clarke (Malcom) & Toby Kebbell (Koba)

PLOT

Since the Dawn of the Planet of the Apes is based off events after the Rise of the Planet of the Apes, the story line is based off the post apocalyptic stage of the human race. Caesar and his colony of apes was living peacefully in the mountains before they are threatened by a band of human survivors. This brings war between the two races, the two races prepare for war to determine which of the two races is dominant.

From experiencing this movie, I rate this movie 9/10 and strongly recommend that you should watch this movie as well as the Rise of the Planet of the Apes.
