Video: Anamorphic Widescreen 2.40:1 Audio: English: Dolby Digital: 5.1, English: DTS: 5.1, French: Dolby Digital: 5.1 Subtitles: English, French, Spanish Stars:Nicolas Cage as Johnny Blaze Matt Long as Young Johnny Blaze Raquel Alessi as Young Roxanne Simpson Brett Cullen as Barton Blaze Peter Fonda as Mephistopheles Donal Logue as Mack Plot:Johnny Blaze (Nicholas Cage) was only a teenage stunt biker when he sold his soul to the devil(Peter Fonda). Years later, Johnny is a world-renowned daredevil by day, but at night, he becomes the Ghost Rider of Marvel Comics legend. The devil's bounty hunter, he is charged with finding evil souls on earth and bringing them to hell. But when a twist of fate brings Johnny's long-lost love (Eva Mendes) back into his life, Johnny relizes he just might have a second chance at happiness--if he can beat the devil and win back his soul. To do so he'll have to defeat Blackheart (Wes Bentley), the devil's nemesis and wayward son, whose plot to take over his father's realm will bring hell on earth -- unless Ghost Rider can stop him. Extras:Scene Access Audio Commentary Bonus Trailers Featurettes Closed Captioned My Thoughts: I felt like watching the sequel... but before doing so I wanted to re-watch the original film as it has been a good 3 or 4 years since I seen it last and really didn't remember too much about it. Only really remembered that I enjoyed it. Sure... this movie wasn't perfect... but what it was... it was a whole lot of fun and it looked awesome! And I think that is what I liked the most about this movie. While I did like the story... the effects were just great and a whole lot of fun to watch. It is funny... when it comes to Nicholas Cage... I either like him in something or I just hate him. I don't know why. When I first heard he was doing this I thought well there goes any chance of this movie being any good. But I was really wrong... I found I liked him a lot in this role. I also really enjoyed Sam Elliot in his role. My Rating: Out of a Possible Five

Goyer (Screenwriter), David S. Goyer (Story By) Rating: Rated PG-13 : Some Sequences of Action and Violence, Some Disturbing Images, and Language Length: 95 Min. Video: Widescreen 2.35:1 Audio: English: Dolby Digital: 5.1, Audio Descriptive: Dolby Digital: 5.1, French: Dolby Digital: 5.1 Subtitles: English, French, Spanish Stars:Nicolas Cage as Johnny Blaze/Ghost Rider Violante Placido as Nadya Ciarán Hinds as Roarke Idris Elba as Moreau Johnny Whitworth as Ray Carrigan Fergus Riordan as Danny Plot:NICOLAS CAGE returns as Johnny Blaze in Ghost Rider™ Spirit of Vengeance. Still struggling with his curse as the devil's bounty hunter, Johnny is hiding out in a remote part of Europe when he is recruited by a secret sect of the church to save a young boy from the devil. At first, Johnny is reluctant to embrace the power of the Ghost Rider, but it is the only way to protect the boy and possibly rid himself of his curse forever. Extras:Bonus Trailers Deleted Scenes Digital Copy My Thoughts: This is my first chance of watching this film. It is one I was excited to see since I enjoyed the first one so much. I was maybe even a little too excited to see it.... hoping that I wasn't expecting too much and setting myself up for disappointment. I found that I enjoyed this one quite a bit. I think I enjoyed it just as much as the first part. The first one is a little longer then this one. But this one didn't need to be as long... it didn't have to tell the origin story. While I have heard some people say this one wasn't as good as the first part.... I also heard (even more) people say if you liked the first one... you will like this one as well. And those are the people I find myself agreeing with. I am blanking out on his name already... but I liked the character that could make anything (or anyone) decay with a simple touch. I am not familiar with the comics... so not sure if he is a character from them... but I wouldn't be surprised if he is. Over-all... I have to recommend this one. Especially if you enjoyed the first one. My Rating: Out of a Possible Five

I saw the trailer way back, and i liked the trailer. And the movie itself is an good ol' action movie. The storyline\plot is interesting aswell. A girl with only one thing on her mind. Revenge, nothing i havent seen before, but i actually enjoyed what they did with the movie. It had me glued to the tv for the 1.40hrs it lasted. And allright action movie, with no so many twist unfortunatly. But still a movie that i really enjoyed. And i would recommand it And some of the acting was actullay not too bad either. And thats always a plus. As i said before, a good ol' action movie that you should check out. I think this is the last movie i'm going to watch, before i leave on a 1 week vacation on Monday! :D My Rating: 4/6 |

Video: Widescreen 2.35:1 Audio: Engelsk: DTS-HD Master Audio: 5.1 Subtitles: Engelsk Stars:Jason Statham (1972) Clive Owen Robert De Niro (1943) Dominic Purcell Aden Young Yvonne Strahovski Plot:Based on a true story, "Killer Elite" races across the globe from Australia to Paris, London and the Middle East in the action-packed account of an ex-special ops agent (Jason Statham) who is lured out of retirement to rescue his mentor (Robert De Niro). To make the rescue, he must complete a near-impossible mission of killing three tough-as-nails assassins with a cunning leader (Clive Owen). Extras:Feature Trailers Dokumentar Interviews My Thoughts: Well, with both Jason Statham and Robert De Niro in the leads (i tought) it had to be a great action movie. I mean Mr.Statham is himself in all his movies, an action hero.. The movie is based on a true story, wich made the movie more interesting. The movie was a bit different then i expected it to be, it was a bit much military for me taste (for a actionflick) but i enjoyed anyways.. But there is a few things i would like to see more of in this movie was f.ex Robert De Niro get some more screentime, he didnt have a big part in the movie as far as the screentime goes. I wish he would be more on. And the story catched me in a good way. But you kinda knew how the movie would end, before it ended. But take those things away, it was a good movie. With some good parts here and there. A movie that i recommand you guys to watch. But i would not call it a "regual action flick" but a mix between that and a military\war movie. Interesting enough My Rating: 4/6 | | | Last edited: by Piffi |

In this case, the Ronin are outcast specialists of every kind, whose services are available to everyone - for money. Dierdre (undoubtedly from Ireland) hires several Ronin to form a team in order to retrieve an important suitcase from a man who is about to sell it to the Russians. After the mission has been completed successfully, the suitcase immediately gets switched by a member of the team who seems to work into his own pocket. The complex net of everyone tricking everyone begins to surface slowly, and deadly... Extras:Scenevalg Feature Trailers My Thoughts: Well, going in to this movie i had no expectations at all. Hadnt heard much about this movie at all. Didnt know what to think or expect. But i was very suprised by it, in a very positive way! It was nice to see Robert De Niro almost back as the "oldschool De Niro" but just almost. Something in between i would say. But i really liked him in this movie. I think he did a great part. So did the others in this movie. (IMO) The story was very interesting i think, and you didnt know half trough the movie how it would. Wich is always a good thing! You had to pay attention trough out. A lot of car chases, gun shootings.. A really good oldschool action flick i would say. A movie that i recommand you guys to check out, if you havent done it yet. And the movie is from the late 90's. And the blu-ray version have amazing sound and picture quality on it. They did a great job there. But they could have done more with the extras if you ask me. But yeah, a really good movie IMO My Rating: 5/6 |

And i really liked the trailer (not that the trailers counts.) But i tried to keep my expactations down. Anyways, about the movie. I actually enjoyed it alot. It kept my interest trough-out the movie. And i really liked the story aswell, was really interesting to see how far people are willing to go, to either prove a point or to catch other people who they think are keeping secrets from them. All in all, i liked the movie. A bit slow at times, but i liked the parts of Amanda Seyfried and Julianne Moore, did a great job IMO. And a nice twist near the end of the movie aswell. Wich is always a good thing IMO. And a movie i would recommand you guys to check out. Not a movie you should watch with your kids tho. My Rating: 4/6 |

Video: Widescreen 1.78:1 Audio: Norsk: DTS-HD Master Audio: 5.1, Norsk: Dolby Digital: 5.1 Subtitles: Norsk Stars:Trond Espen Seim Bjørn Floberg Lene Nystrøm Mads Ousdal Gitte Witt Ingrid Olava Plot:Varg Veum skal bli far. Mens han leter etter et forsvunnet søskenpar i Bergens prostitusjonsmiljø, tar livet en ny retning på en måte han aldri kunne forestille seg. Varg innser at saken har sammenheng med et drap som etterforskes av førstebetjent Hamre, et drap der offeret hadde ubehagelig tette bånd til de forsvunne søsknene. Men i takt med Karins voksende mage vokser også trusselen mot Varg, etter hvert som sporene peker mot en skruppelløs narkoliga på jakt etter et stort parti heroin på avveier. Varg innser at livet aldri mer vil bli det samme. Nå må han ta valget: la forbryterne gå, eller sette Karins liv i fare. Extras:Bonus Trailers My Thoughts: As i've said before, when i've reviewed other Varg Veum movies, (its one of the best movieseries made in Norway. If not the best) Its a crime\drama movie series, about Varg Veum (a private detective, who makes his living by solving those cases, no one else wants. And he lives a bit on the edge with both the law. And others) Its a movie series maby of by the books of Gunnar Staalesen! And in every movie its ofc a new case, with some twists here and there. Its been made 12 movies in the series, and this was the last and final movie in the series (so, they says anyways) I've really enjoyed the movieseries. One of my favourites. What they have done with 'so little' if i can say that is just amazing. And the main character played by Trond Espen Seim has done amazing things with the movie series. Really good quality if you ask me. Solid movies here.. For all the Norwegians out there, i highly recommand Varg Veum, for the people who hasnt checked it out yet! Sad to see it finished. But 12 really good movies! My Rating: 5/6 I will give the total 12 movies a solid 5/6. |

Video: Widescreen :1 Audio: Subtitles: Stars:Plot:Ray, an ex-con, is starting a new life looking to stay out of trouble. One evening, on Ray's watch, the nightclub he works for is robbed and the owner's son is shot dead. As his criminal past is exposed Ray hunts for the person responsible for this crime in an effort to clear his own name. Ray must get to the bottom of this as both the mob and cops start to close in on him as their target suspect. Extras:My Thoughts: Well, it looked like an interesting movie. A few ok actors in it aswell, and Dave Bautista had the lead role in the movie. (he's a former WWE superstar. And since i'm a big fan of WWE, it got my attention.) But what can i say about this 'action flick' as they called it. Well, It started of ok, but it went downhill very quick. The storyline wasnt interesting enough for me, its been a million times before. And they didnt pull it off. The movie was very slow aswell, and you kinda knew after 15minutes in the movie who was the real bad guy in the movie. (boring) And i hoped with all the known actors they would do something good with it. And i hoped Batista would impress me too, but for me they dropped the ball on this one! For me, i didnt enjoy this. And i wouldnt recommand to watch it either. (Sorry) My Rating: 2/6 |

| Posted: | | | | Oh, cool Sreh! I didnt know that.. That it was only popular etc in Norway\Scandinavia. Cool! And the 6 last movies in the series, is just awesome. I really like all the 12 movies, but i think the last 6 is the best movies in the series. And i know the 6 last movies was\is very popular here in Norway.. So i both hope and think that if you got the first 6, you will get the last 6 aswell |
