Jupiter Ascending

 


The Wachowski siblings from Matrix directed Jupiter Ascending in 2.015. A sci-fi movie  played by Mila Kunis as Jupiter Jones, Channing Tatum as Caine, Eddie Redmayne as the villain Balem Abrasax and Maria Doyle Kennedy as Jupiter´s mother.

This movie sets in U.S. and some parts in others planets scattered all over the galaxy.

Jupiter is a young woman who works along her family doing house cleaning. Her russianfamily struggles to have a better life in Chicago. Everything was right until Jupiter decide to donor some eggs to make money along her cousin. She was almost kidnapped at the clinic and rescued for her future bodyguard Caine.

So Caine explained to Jupiter that she has a special genetic combination that is identical to a former earth's owner and she has to inheritance the planet to prevent the planet´s extinction. She refuses to believe in Cain and her journey for the galaxy begins.

They went to meet the Abrasax family that holds power over earth and she witnessed the use of spectacular technology that rejuvenates a human being. The main ingredient of this technology is human´s juice. The most coveted commodity in the universe was time, which was provided by  juice of human beings. Her family was kidnapped and she has to run away from the villain of the story.

The movie is full of special effects, aliens and spaceships. Exquisites landscapes and costumes. It's an espetacular adventure and I recommend .

There is no doubt that the book “Pride and Prejudice” is one of the most classic love stories. The novel was first published in 1813 and is the most-read Jane Austen book. So obviously, the movie, directed by Joe Wright and launched in 2005, was very expected.  The P&P movie was a friendly and condensed version of the story. On one side of the love story, Elizabeth was well-played by Keira Knightley, who translated the witty and determined character from the book. On the other side, David Matthew MacFadyen played Mr. Darcy in a more gothic way than was expected after reading the book. Mr. Darcy from the book seems to be a severe and polite man, but the actor plays him as a no-expression and boring man. But to conclude about the cast, it must be said that Lizzie’s sisters played humorous moments chasing to marry distinguished men. Based on such a masterpiece, the movie could take more advantage of the soundtrack, bringing hits of the 21st century adapted to classical versions – ...

  QUEEN CHARLOTTE: A Bridgerton Story      Prepare to be transported back to the world of Regency-era England of Bridgerton. Directed by Tom Verica, with original screenplay by Shonda Rhimes (Grey’s Anatomy), this spin-off miniseries shifts the spotlight to the alluring Queen Charlotte. It consists of two plot lines: one in 1817 after the death of the royal heir, causing a succession crisis to secure the lineage; and another set in 1761, with a young Charlotte marrying King George III, their relationship and his mental illness.      The ensemble cast, led by the remarkable portrayal by India Amarteifio, shines with undeniable presence. As the layers of her character unfold, I was completely captivated by the intricate web of emotions that lie beneath her regal façade. Her power, intelligence, and occasional moments of playfulness add a touch of brilliance to an already stellar performance.      As Corey Mylchreest plays a young King Geor...
