Max Payne

This week I saw a movie called Max Payne. It's a movie about a man named Max Payne who used to be a real cop but after the murder of his wife and daughter was very distresed and now worked with the "cold case files". Even after two years he is still searching and soon meets with a girl named natashia. she has a tatoo of wings and it seems vaguely farmiliar to him. As the story progresses there is more and more evidence that the companie his wife worked for may have been responsible for her murder. And after a great realization about the company he goes on a rampage almost dieing several times.
Thanks for reading.

Angels and demons.

This week I read Dan Brown's Angels and Demons. It is a story about a man named Robert Langdon, professor of symbology at Harvard, who gets a call from the head of CERN, the top scientist organization in the world. He calls Langdon late at night to come look at a brand on their top physicist’s dead body rumored to have been created by an ancient brotherhood called the Illuminati. They soon discover this someone has stolen a less than one gram sample of antimatter that has the destructive power of the nuclear bomb from Hiroshima. They then have to save the day before its holding canister runs out of battery and destroys the thieves’ target.
thanks for reading.

Quarantined

This week I'll be writting about a movie I saw with a couple freinds called Quarantined. It was a horror movie about a news reporter, her camera man, some firemen and some residents that get closed in by the american government when there is an outbreak of a rabies like virus in the apartment building the firemen were called to. The virus seems to have started with an 80 some year old woman who all of a sudden, while trying to be helped, attacks one of the policemen in an inhuman display of speed and bites the officer who soon shows the same tendancies as the woman. Later, after a few more casualties, people in hazmat suites come through the recently place plastic seal around the whole building to inspect some of the infected people that were managed to be straped down in a storage room. More unnecesary, typical zombie movie stuff happenes. and the movie ends with the reporter, the last person not infected/alive, being pulled into the darkness by a human that looks like it had been living in a pile of dirt for 30 years. It wasn't the best movie ever, especialy as far as horor/zombie movies are concerned but, non the less, it was mildly entertaining.

Disturbed: Indestructable

I'm tired of movies so now I'm moving on to awsome albums that I've listened to. This week it's Disturbed's newest album titled Indestructable. Let me just say congratulations to Disturbed on this one. The album is what most people would clasify as nu metal. Either way, I think its great, the guitar riffs and vocal quality is amazing. Anyway we'll start with the first track entitled Indestructable. It starts out with some syrens that are soon joined by helicoper sounds and muffled gunfire to give you the impression of a battlefield. Soon, however, the real song starts and man, is it intense. It's a song about soilders and how this certain soldier is indestructable and carries out his orders without regret. The guitar in this song is very carfully put together and you can tell because there are so many pauses that are so well placed it's not easy (not to mention a slower but yet awsome solo). I'd rate it an 8/10. I don't have time to realy give deatails on all the songs so I'll just talk about one more. This track is my current favorite and the last song on the album. It's named facad and it's a little darker than the rest (with the exception of Inside the Fire). I wont discus the lyrics but the drums have some nice sounds too them with well placed cymbols etc. and the guitar has some high skill level stuff. Definatley an amazing album overall but that's all the time I have. Thanks for reading.
