(Five Stars + Spoilers Follow)

『This show just keeps getting better and better. Season Five was no exception. Every eps. was must see tv from the very beginning learning Ben did move the island to the surprising ending of throwing the bomb down that hatch that may or may not have caused the Incident.

They moved the Island. As the Island moved Sawyer, Juliet, Miles and Daniel flashed all over the place before Locke finally moved it again causing it to stop in the seventies when the Dharma Initiative was alive and running the island, Sawyer, Miles, and Juliet end up joining while waiting for Locke to return to the island. Sawyer and Juliet become a new kick ass couple. Miles contiunes to make us all laugh while dealing with daddy issues his father none other then the doctor we've seen in all the videos. Daniel looses his marbles and then makes us cry when he's sent back in time by his mother Eloise only to be shot by her younger self. Oh yeah Charles Widmore is his father I think we have a winner in the worse parentage ever.

Of the island Jack, Kate, Sayid, Hurley, and Sun deal with re-entering the world post-island still believing everyone else back on the island is in trouble. This gets pushed further along by arrivals of Locke and then Ben urging and maniplating them all to go back to the island. They all end up heading back to island with the help of Eloise. Jack, Kate, Hurley and Sayid end up back in the 70s when the new plane crashes while Sun, Locke, Frank and Ben end up in 2007 after crashing in the same plane.

Ben contiunes to be vie for the best psycho award. After moving the island he's banished from it Ben spends his time preparing for his return. Convincing everyone else to go back, stopping in London to promise Widmore he'd kill Penny in exchange for his own daughter's murder. He talks Locke out of suicide before murdering him and staging it as a suicide. Ah Ben your an overachiever. But once back on the island Ben's forced to "face the island" for his crimes. Oddly enough Alex's death appears to be the only one the island's concerned about and not mass murder and his millions of other crimes. The smoke monster delievers the answer via Alex to do everything Locke says. Hmm not
not what I was expecting but that was fun to watch. Surprisingly Ben does everything Locke says even kills Jacob when he's ordered too. Oh that wasn't Locke....oops. On the other hand maybe that was the best punishment for Ben. Good job Island

Locke poor Locke he flashes around the island with Sawyer and the gang learning the only way he can fix everything is bring everyone back to the island. Unfortunately, he has to die to do it. Locke tries desperately to convince the Oceanic Six to return to the island with no luck. The is murdered by Ben and returned to the island in a coffin.
Once back on the island Locke is a new man. He has a direction, a purpose, he has fun Ben setting out to see the leader Jacob who no one appears to have ever seen except the never aging Richard. Turns out Jacob does exists unfortunately, Locke is not Locke and has dreamed of killing Jacob for ages.

Jacob- to my surprised actually exists in the last eps he is shown having visited every Oceanic Six and Sawyer at a turning point in their lives. Its hard to tell if he's good or evil. He gets Kate out of shopping lifting at an early age, gives Sawyer the pen to write his letter, and distracts Sayid and Nadia which ends up in Nadia's death. While Kate and Sawyer probably would have grown up the same Nadia probably wouldn't have been in the middle of the road when she was killed however if Ben was right about the man who killed her (which its been so who knows) he might have killed Sayid instead. Hurley was the only one Jacob talked to after the island and Jacob appears to have healed Locke so he may be Good but this is LOST so who knows.

Esau- and Not Locke-Guy who wants Jacob dead or Esau as some of LOST boards have been calling him- Esau wants Jacob dead. Jacob keeps bringing people to the island who fight and destroy. Esau insists it will always be the same Jacob insists there's only one ending and keeps bring people. Esau wants to kill Jacob. And he doe. By using Locke and convince Ben to kill Jacob which he does. But Locke's body was found in the box so has Esau been impersonating dead people all this time? Is the smoke monster? What does this all mean?

The second crash-Everyone else who didn't flash to the 70s or run off with Ben are heading to the broken Statue
with a huge box containing the dead Locke to see Richadus or Richard. One of them was visited by Jacob in a hospital. Richard is shocked to see Locke's dead body. Are they the whos coming? That Jacob warned Esau about. Or Jack and the crew coming back from the 70s after Juliet denonated the bomb? Or someone else?

Desmond- Desmond beats up Ben. Desmon beats up Ben. That was awsome and a long time coming. Desmond's also the only one who's the most correct about the island that there all just a pawn in someone else's game. Jacob and Esau? Or just one or other? There wasn't nearly enough Desmond this season.

The Bomb-Did it flash at the end? Or cause the incident? Or did it reset things? That's what I love about this show figuring out what the hell is going on. I so hope Juliet isn't dead.

There's millions of other things that happened on this season that I left out or forgot about. But that's what's amazing about LOST there are millions of questions, theories and things happening in each ep that its impossible to name them all or figure them out. It keeps you on the edge of your seat and trying to figure it out right along with the show. Just when you think you've got it all figured out like there's no Jacob they turn it all around on you. God I love this show. Its so good. I can't wait to see how it all ends next season.

But there is one small down side. Kate- I don't know if its the actress or the storylines for her but she is the weakest link on the show. The charactor sucks the energy right out of the show. The Jack and Kate arc was by far the most boring part of LOST. I can't blame Jack because even he gets better when Kate's not around. She has become by far the most useless charactor. There's no reason for her to be on the show anymore. She does nothing and she adds nothing to the story.

』

(Why available earlier in Region 2 but not in the USA?)

『Why is LOST Season Five already available for purchase in Region 2, but an entire month and an half later in Region 1? I think we're being cheated. Any objective reason for this delay? I preordered this item but feel a bit ripped off.』

(Lost: The Complete Fifth Season)

『Excellent buy! Great delivery time and item in Perfect condition!
We enjoyed this series very much! Recommend to everyone!
Make an excellent gift idea for anyone!!』

(Lost continues to amaze.)

『Its pretty simple. There are 2 kinds of people in this world. Those who love Lost and those who say "when are they getting off that island". Most people who dislike Lost have not watched every episode. If you miss episodes then yea... your going to be Lost, pardon the pun. In my opinion Lost is the greatest TV show ever. Consistant quality from episode 1 to season 5's finale.』

(rip off)

『While I may a voice from the wilderness, let us take a look at the facts!

season one 24 episodes
season two 23 episodes
season three 22 episodes
season four 13 episodes (writer's strike year)

Fact #1 ABC said that there were to be 7 seasons, now reduced to six.
Fact #2 ABC said that they would increase the amount of episodes to make up for the shortness of season 4. NOT
Fact #3 ABC aired two "NEW" episodes in season 5 that were no more than "previously on lost"

season five 16 episodes. add season 1-4 divide by four equals 20.5 episodes. By my math season five should have 21 episodes, or more.

ABC has mis-managed this series so badly. For example: in an effort to get public viewers they started LOST 4 or 5 minutes early (cutting Dances with the Stars short) and many times ran into the next show late to get people watching a "NEW series. If you watched season one and two, you'll remember the six week breaks, then in season two ABC decides to start showing the Tail section 2 weeks into the 6 week break???

My point: I love the series LOST, I watch it over and over. I can't wait for the DVD release of season five. But, at what a cost to the long time viewers of LOST. Only to be diappointed with short seasons and no seventh season.

conclusion: Dallas always had 28-30 shows a season, for 14 yrs. Well the series "24" runs 24 episodes, you get your bang for the buck there.』
『The epic story of Lost twists, turns and time shifts in its brilliant fifth season. Packed with bonus material, including a revealing interview with the cast and an exclusive behind the scenes feature with Josh, Lost is better than ever.

When destiny calls, the Oceanic 6 frantically race back to the island. Discover what forced them to return and find out the fate of all those who were left behind. The answers to some of Lost's most pressing questions are revealed in this spectacular 5-disc collection, complete with deleted scenes, a behind the scenes celebration of the 100th episode and an incredible vault of exclusive bonus features. The show that revolutionized primetime proves once again why it is television's most addictive and creative series.
Bonus Features Include: 7 Lost on location, A Day with Josh Holloway, Los Angeles crew tribute with Michael Emerson, the 100th episode, Time Frame and Continuity, Bloopers, Deleted Scenes』
『SinceLostmade its debut as a cult phenomenon in 2004, certain things seemed inconceivable. In its fourth year, some of those things, like a rescue, came to pass. The season ended with Locke (Terry O'Quinn) attempting to persuade the Oceanic Six to return, but he dies before that can happen--or so it appears--and where Jack (Matthew Fox) used to lead, Ben (Emmy nominee Michael Emerson) now takes the reins and convinces the survivors to fulfill Locke's wish.

As producers Damon Lindelof and Carlton Cuse state in their commentary on the fifth-season premiere, "We're doing time travel this year," and the pile-up of flashbacks and flash-forwards will make even the most dedicated fan dizzy. Ben, Jack, Hurley (Jorge Garcia), Sayid (Naveen Andrews), Sun (Yunjin Kim), and Kate (Evangeline Lilly) arrive to find that Sawyer (Josh Holloway) and Juliet (Elizabeth Mitchell) have been part of the Dharma Initiative for three years. The writers also clarify the roles that Richard (Nestor Carbonell) and Daniel (Jeremy Davies) play in the island's master plan, setting the stage for the prophecies of Daniel's mother, Eloise Hawking (Fionnula Flanagan), to play a bigger part in the sixth and final season.

Dozens of other players flit in and out, some never to return. A few, such as Jin (Daniel Dae Kim), live again in the past.Lostcould've wrapped things up in five years, asThe Wiredid, but the show continues to excite and surprise. As Lindelof and Cuse admit in the commentary, there's a "fine line between confusion and mystery," adding, "it makes more sense if you're drunk." Other extras include deleted scenes, featurettes, a "lost" episode ofMysteries of the Universe, and commentary from writers Edward Kitsis and Adam Horowitz on "He's Our You," a reference to Sayid, who tries to change the future by changing the past.--Kathleen C. Fennessy』

(THE BEST HP YET BIG WOWOWOW DIEHARD FANS ONLY!!!)

『Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince is the Best Movie to date in the
HP Series !!! And we can only look forward in great anticipation
to the Deathly Hallows to Top even this...
The Characterizations are PRIMO as ever !!!
My only Regret is that the HP Movies aren't so very much longer !!!
What a Magical Creation as Ever from J.K. Rowling !!!
』

(Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince)

『I love the Harry Potter series and Half-Blood Prince is one of the best books in the series. To be honest i enjoyed the movie except for the beginning and the ending. I didn't care for the fact that Dumbledore had met Harry at the train station. I was really excited to read in the book that Dumbledore had gone to the Dursley's and took Harry out of there. I was also disappointed when they didn't have Dumbledore's funeral. They pretty much just let him lay dead on the pavement. I thought the cave was exciting and i was really happy that it turned out the way it did in my head when i read the book. I thought it was a bit dark and different for the Harry Potter series. I liked that the writters incorporated the fact that Tonks and Lupin were in a relationship. I thought that it could have had a better ending. All in all i like H-BP and anyone who is a big fan of the books would probably like me and be alittle dissapointed!』

(Favorite so far)

『I loved it. The acting has gotten a whole lot better and this was one of my favorite books as well.』

(I thought it was good)

『Wow, I laugh at the people who rate movies poorly based on what they read in a book. Books don't normally make for a very good film in the first place. The best thing I feel to do is to separate the two ideas of film vs. book. Two different thing and therefore must be viewed in two different ways. It's like comparing apples/oranges, Tupperware/tool boxes, Ford Temp/private jets etc.

I watched this one before I saw the others so I went back and watched 1 all the way up to this (I finally understand it). In comparison to the first 3 the films do get better as they progress; less character development and more of the good stuff. If you're wondering, I'm not much into reading fantasy books. I'd much rather read a physics text, engineering text, or even a dictionary (something educational). I get my fantasy time from watching movies.

Anyway, I thought the film was good and I'd buy the blu-ray for $17
』

(Remedial Movie Making Paid off!)

『I know what you're expecting me to say if you've read my other comments "this movie sucks I hate it!" well then I'm here to prove you wrong. I saw this movie in theaters and actually walked away pretty satisfied. The plot actually works. Some parts were a little quirky but some were necessary. Like having Dumbledore stare at a picture of a woman to skave off the rumors that he is gay. The makers obviosly wanted him to die with dignity so people wouldn't say: "Oh, well there goes the gay guy." while I liked this movie I do have some issues with it (ooo issues.) Harry's new love affair with Ginny was unexplained. It just seemed like one day he lookd at her and said oh wow she is good-looking. Using Dean Thomas as a ruse to make Harry jealous was slightly referenced but not convincing as she was perfectly prepared to snog Harry when he was at the Burrow, even though she didn't succeed. Ron's affair with Lavender was ended to abrubtly for my tastes but oh well. But as always the adaptations suck. One is where Harry, with no explanation as to why, is not at the Dursley's but at a cafe making dates with waitresses while the world is being destroyed!!! Also the destruction of the Burrow, not only was it unnecessary and cruel but immposible. In the book it explains that the Burrow has all the enchantments that Hogwarts has so the Death Eaters couln't destroy it, or even apparate to it. It seems like a pointless hit and run just to creat enmity between Harry and Bellatrix. then when harry almost kills Malfoy, a member of Snape's house, he gets caught by none other than Snape and just runs away and Snape lets him go without a word! Don't get me wrong the movie was good I give it an A for acceptable. Not bad but I expect better for the two part seventh one and hopefully either John Williams or Chris Columbas comes back, just a hope!』
『The sixth installment of theHarry Potterseries begins right whereThe Order of the Phoenixleft off. The wizarding world is rocked by the news that "He Who Must Not Be Named" has truly returned, and the audience finally knows that Harry is "the Chosen One"--the only wizard who can defeat Lord Voldemort in the end. Dark forces loom around every corner, and now regularly attempt to penetrate the protected walls of Hogwarts School. This is no longer the fun and fascinating world of magic from the first few books—it's dark, dangerous, and scary.

Harry (Daniel Radcliffe) suspects Draco Malfoy (Tom Felton) to be a new Death Eater recruit on a special mission for the Dark Lord. In the meantime, Professor Dumbledore (Michael Gambon) seems to have finally removed the shroud of secrecy from Harry about the dark path that lies ahead, and instead provides private lessons to get him prepared. It's in these intriguing scenes that the dark past of Tom Riddle (a.k.a. Voldemort) is finally revealed. The actors cast as the different young versions of Riddle (Hero Fiennes-Tiffin and Frank Dillane) do an eerily fantastic job of portraying the villain as a child. While the previous movies' many new characters could be slightly overwhelming, only one new key character is introduced this time: Professor Horace Slughorn (with a spot-on performance by Jim Broadbent). Within his mind he holds a key secret in the battle to defeat the Dark Lord, and Harry is tasked by Dumbledore to uncover a memory about Voldemort's darkest weapon--the Horcrux. Despite the long list of distractions, Harry, Ron (Rupert Grint), and Hermione (Emma Watson) still try to focus on being teenagers, and audiences will enjoy the budding awkward romances. All of the actors have developed nicely, giving their most convincing performances to date.

More dramatic and significant things go down in this movie than any of its predecessors, and the stakes are higher than ever. The creators have been tasked with a practically impossible challenge, as fans of the beloved J.K. Rowling book series desperately want the movies to capture the magic of the books as closely as possible. Alas, the point at which one accepts that these two mediums are very different is the point at which one can truly enjoy these brilliant adaptations.Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Princeis no exception: it may be the best film yet. For those who have not read the book, nail-biting entertainment is guaranteed. For those who have, the movie does it justice. The key dramatic scenes, including the cave and the shocking twist in the final chapter, are executed very well. It does a perfect job of setting up the two-part grand finale that is to follow.--Jordan Thompson』

(There can be only one!)

『I didn't get around to watching this when it first came out in theatres, but was suprised at how good it was when I checked out the DVD. Dreamworks(creators of Shrek and Kung Fu Panda)did this as a comedic homage to the monster movies of the 50s.

Starting out, Susan was a blushing bride about to be married to her shallow weatherman boyfriend Derek, but a meteorite chrashes near her and dowses her with an outer space radiation called quantonium. She is then transformed into a white-haired giantess, and immeadiately accosted by the military, who apparently were expecting a giant to be there at the crashsite in the first place because they had large hypodermic needles to put her to sleep with. Susan wakes up in the secret government facility of Area 52 which houses other kinds of "monsters". The team consists of Bob the blob, the amphibious Missing Link, the insectoid mad scientist Dr. Cockroach, and the tremendous kaiju Insectosaurus. Things seem miserable for Susan(now called Ginormica), but the evil alien overlord Gallaxhar shows up in his starship and launches a giant robot loose on San Francisco. So the monsters are sent to stop the robot in exchange for their freedom. After an epic battle that wrecks the Golden Gate Bridge, they destroy the mecha, and Susan heads to her hometown along with her new monster buds to see her fiance. However, Derek breaks up with her, which makes Susan embrace her monsterhood. This would be nice, except that Gallaxhar kidnaps her to extract the quantonium from her to power his clone-making machine and invade Earth. Bob, Link, and Cockroach board the ship and find Susan who is now normal size after having the radiation sucked out of her. They manages to destroy the ship's computer, and Susan confronts Gallaxhar, which gets her cosmic mojo again, turning her back into a giant. They escape on Insectosaurus who is now a gargantuan butterfly. The monsters then agree to continue working with the military to defend Earth against other threats.

M.V.A. was a very enjoyable movie. The 3-D is applied wonderfully, unlike some other animated films. The story pays great attention to the Silver Age schlock creature features, both the stereotypical monster ones and flying saucer flicks. The casting was fine, although it was a little overboard with Stephen Colbert at the President, and they could've just had John DiMaggio doing the voice of Keifer Sutherland's character, General Monger. Like in most Dreamworks cartoons, there is alot of pop culture subreferences, although one of the genuinely good ones is the DDR session. There's already been an OVA prequal called BOB's Big Break, and a Halloween TV special, but knowing Dreamworks there's probably gonna be an actual movie sequal too. Definately seek out this monster mash!』

(Great movie for all ages)

『This is a great movie - my kids (3, 6, 9) all enjoy watching it and my husband and I find it entertaining as well.』

(Monsters vs. Aliens)

『What's not to love...total B Movie nostalgia brought to the 21st century. The kids love it, especially the "Suuuuussssan..." part.』

(Monsters vs. Movies)

『When the government hides monsters in a bunker and the planet is suddenly under alien attack what should be done? Why, have the monsters fight the aliens of course! Such is the premise of this little movie.

Meet Susan who undergoes a drastic and alarming change on her wedding day - growing quite gigantic. Suddenly (very suddenly) she's captured by the military and wakes up in a strange place. It's the huge government bunker where all the monsters are kept. This was a problem I had with the movie - this bunker is HUGE and filled with technological marvels but through the movie we only see 5 monsters - where are all the other monsters to justify such space and expense? Granted they did have an invisible man at one point too and Insectosaurus is huge but still...

Some others are Dr. Cockroach (no further description needed), Link, or more formally Missing Link and Bob, a living food additive with no brain. They are a pretty charming and funny bunch and the movie is full of funny little snips of dialog and scenes. The President's attempts at communication with an alien probe alone had me cracking a big grin. And when the alien(s) arrive we're also treated to lots of smooth action and cool looking technology as well.

The main narrative follows Susan (or Ginormica) and there are the expected lessons of accepting people for who they are not what they look like but also a lesson about standing on your own and up for yourself and your friends - all good heart warm-y stuff. What the movie lacks though is any real plot.

You see, the alien(s) just show up looking for quantonium a super powerful element. A giant probe robot is dropped down and starts smashing stuff and the General just up and says the monsters should handle it. They've been in captivity for years except Ginormica, who's new, so I'm not sure what made him think the monsters were the best candidates and I'm not sure why the monsters should help (other than the carrot of freedom) and why they aren't just a bit more miffed at being held prisoner for just being who and what they are.

As to the alien's motivations for wanting to take over the Earth and kill everyone - forget about it. He just shows up. The movie even makes fun of this by having the alien attempt to explain but us missing half the conversation. I wasn't laughing. He was a threat, even for Ginormica and her giant strength but this lack of understanding his motives was annoying.

The voice work was uniformly good from Reese Witherspoon to Seth Rogan and the action was action packed and the laughs were plentiful but if you're looking for a lot of substance then you may need to look elsewhere. I feel 3 1/2 but there's enough good here that I'd feel bad rounding down so 4 it is.
』

(Ginormica's Excellent Adventure)

『Dreamworks really outdid themselves as an animator company with Monsters vs. Aliens, even (dare I say) on par with Pixar films!

I love it when the writers who do science fiction play homage to old monster films of the Fifties (The Blob, Attack of the 50 Foot Woman, Mothra) and write a funny plot, a few insider jokes, and no sex or potty humor. Can it be done?

Yes, successfully. Susan is about to get married but somehow gets hit on the head with a meteor. A meteor that holds powerful energy that an alien wants for himself. She becomes 50 feet tall to learn what a jerk her groom is (a newscaster from Modesto, who is moving on to the big Fresno market).

Love the San Francisco-esque scenes, so realistic. Our cockroach mad scientist (al'a The Fly) hooks up a streetcar (to the Castro) with four rockets -- Man, I've never seen MUNI move so fast! (Local humor, sorry).

Susan's fighting the aliens, the giant robot crushing the Golden Gate Bridge, her returning of self confidence and wanting to help her friends communicates so many positive messages to kids who watch this.

Bob is the best. He is patterned after The Blob, can pop his eye in and out, absorbs food and falls in love with a dish of jello.

The DVD specials are interesting: Two "make-of" regarding 3D filming technology (wish I saw this in a 3D theater now) and some "deleted scenes" most of which are storyboarded with voiceovers. Dreamworks added the same thing to their other DVD on Madagascar, showing short songs of their earlier films. I skipped this, as I can only "move-it move-it" so much.

Nicely done package and a fun homage to old-time Sci-Fi. And don't miss the B52s and the Flying Purple People Eater music!

』
『When Susan Murphy is unexpectedly clobbered by a meteor full of outer space gunk, she mysteriously grows to 49-feet-11-inches tall and is instantly labeled a“Monster” named Ginormica. The military jumps into action, and she is captured and held in a secret government compound filled with other “monsters” like herself. This ragtag group consists of the brilliant but insect-headed Dr. Cockroach, P.H.D.; the macho half-Ape-half-fish The Missing Link; the gelatinous and indestructible B.O.B.; and the 350-foot grub called Insectosaurus. Their confinement time is cut short however, when a mysterious alien robot lands on Earth and the motley crew of Monsters is called into action to save the world from imminent destruction.

』
『Monsters don't exist, right? If they did, they'd be locked up in some secret government location so the general population wouldn't know of their existence. But what if monsters do exist... and they aren't evil, or even particularly scary? What if they're funny... and smart... and what if they might just be the key to man's survival? When a meteorite crashes in California on Susan Murphy's (Reese Witherspoon) wedding day, Susan is struck by a dose of otherworldly quantonium, her bridal glow becomes decidedly green, and she suddenly swells to a gargantuan 49 feet-11 inches tall. The Feds swoop in and whisk her away from husband-to-be Derek (Paul Rudd) to a government concealment agency where they dub her Ginormica and leave her to bemoan her losses and spend the rest of her days with strange creatures like B.O.B., the brainless blob (Seth Rogen), mad professor Dr. Cockroach (Hugh Laurie), the half-fish and half-ape Missing Link (Will Arnett), and the overly huge and strangely silent grub Insectosaurus. Next, Gallaxhar (Rainn Wilson), ruler of an alien civilization, sends a huge robot to attack Modesto, Calif., to recover the quantonium released by the fallen meteorite. Under the ineffective leadership of President Hathaway (Stephen Colbert), the government embraces General W. R. Monger's (Kiefer Sutherland) suggestion to pit the imprisoned monsters against the robot in exchange for their freedom. The monsters are no match for the robot until Susan begins to really believe in her own abilities and embrace the power of her friendship with the other monsters. B.O.B is absolutely hilarious with his consistent propensity for misunderstanding, indiscriminate digestion of anything and everything in his path, and witless adoration of his fellow monsters. The crazy exploits of Dr. Cockroach inspire lots of laughter, Insectosaurus proves his worth in the end, and Ginormica serves as the glue that holds the whole film together. The InTru 3-D format is highly effective and if you like animation; visual, verbal, and action comedy; references to past science-fiction films; and lovable monsters; you'll enjoyMonsters vs. Aliens.

(Perhaps I am too old for these type of movies...)

『I don't mean to be negative about it, but this movie is just another one of those "let's put animals in the movie so that we can impress the kids" but my son and his friends would not sit in the theater to watch the movie because it did not catch their attention very well. At first, they thought it was cool because the hamsters were talking, but then they just got bored. It is pretty sad when talking gerbils do not even thrill 6-year-olds... maybe animal lovers liked it?』

(Harmless and fun entertainment for kids and the adults that accompany them)

『We were trying to figure out which family-friendly movie to take our almost 5 year-old this weekend, and though I was rooting for "Ponyo", hubby favored "G-Force", so that's what we watched. It was fun, but this is definitely one of those movies that require you to check your brains at the door. The plot is rather silly, about an entrepreneur [played by Bill Nighy of all people] who plans on taking over the world via his home appliances. The only ones who seem able to stop him are a bunch of guinea pigs, and yes, a mole of superior intellect who have been trained to carry out espionage activities. The guinea pigs comprise Darwin, Juarez, Blaster, and the mole is called Speckles. Well, the Feds get wind of the operation and shut it down, and the animals find themselves in a pet store. To cut a long story short - the rest of the movie deals with Darwin and company trying to free themselves and help bring the bad guy down.

My almost 5-year-old was riveted to the screen though a lot of the humor seemed lost on her. The humor was ok, though it did seem pitched more to older kids than the younger ones. There are lots of cute moments as is typical for movies like this, and the CGI effects are pretty decent though not spectacular. My main complaint is the use of tech-speak which came across as overly heavy for a movie geared towards kids...I understand why it was used, but it seemed rather unnecessary. Final verdict - family-friendly, mindless kids' entertainment with the requisite positive messages embedded within, i.e. teamwork, friendship, believing in one's self etc.』

(Artificially neat. Austerely narrated.)

『Guinea pigs might be offended with such sanitized furs dressing that never pick straws of dust. Except of few wet furs, the extra clean and dry coats of the actors hindered the indulgence in the scenario.

Relying on a governmental recruitment scenario to bridge the world of animals was not a perfect choice, taking into account that those guinea pigs possess greater skills different from artificial intelligence.

The excessive rationalization of lingual communication with headsets was another unnecessary gadget in a fictional tale.

In addition, on the down side, the talking voices were not the best or the most provocative. Let alone the austere pursuit of the super semiconductor chip that falls beyond the realm of young viewers.

("Poop in his hand. Poop in his hand.")

『A line from the movie. I loved it. I mean, what else can a guinea pig do to defend itself?

There is a team of combat-trained, commando guinea pigs. They call themselves the G-Force and go on special missions, like Special Agents. I saw this 3-D Disney flick in the movies and found it very cute and entertaining. Their mission is to break into the estate of a former arms dealer, hack into his computer, and find out what he developed this special microchip for. This one FBI Special Agent (Sector Head, I guess) doesn't see any use for the G-Force, so when they APPEAR to have botched a mission, the FBI guy shuts down the operation and the commandos wind up for sale in a pet store. Of course, the story begins here with the team trying to get out and back together again, and continue on with their mission. One of the guinea pigs is Penelope Cruise and another is Nicholas Cage and there are others. It's cute and it has great computer graphic imaging. It seems to be fine for little children. The worst I remember hearing was "poop in his hand" and "get your face out of my butt." There were a bunch of little ones at the theater and they all seemed to enjoy the movie as much as I did. (Hey, my inner child insisted on being entertained.)』

(A cute one for the kids)

『Take the Mission Impossible franchise and replace the MI team with cute, fuzzy, and very small animals. Somehow, it works. The CGI critters blend seamlessly with the live actors and scenes, making it incredibly easy to suspend disbelief.

As with any good kids' movie, there's enough wit to keep the paying grown-up amused. The "you can if you try" message comes across as heavy handed at one point and a plot reversal seems abrupt, but those things seem minor. It's a cute popcorn movie for the kids.

『Buckle up for thrilling edge-of-your-seat action and laugh-out-loud fun in Disney’s family comedy adventureG-Force. Just as the G-Force— an elite team of highly trained guinea pigs — is about to save the world, the F.B.I. shuts the secret unit down. But these next-generation action heroes — Darwin, loyal team leader; Blaster, weapons expert with attitude to spare; Juarez, drop-dead gorgeous martial arts diva; and tag-along Hurley — won’t be stopped. Armed with the latest in high-tech spy equipment, and with the F.B.I. on their tails, the fur flies as they race against the clock to save the world. From the producer of thePirates Of The Caribbeantrilogy andNational Treasure, and filled with high-octane action, daredevil stunts, cutting-edge special effects and outrageous comedy,G-Forceis fantastic fun for the whole family.』
『G-Forcejust might be the best Jerry Bruckheimer action film in many a moon. The film is exuberant, and its premise--don't thinkbigfor an animated caper film, thinksmall--brilliantly upends the more-bigger-faster trope of American action films… with cute, little, furry guinea pigs.

Bruckheimer, the action genius behind the likes of thePirates of the Caribbean,Con Air,The Rock,Armageddon, and many more, here teams with visual effects maestro Hoyt Yeatman, who writes and directs. The combo is potent, and the fact that they streamed their blow-'em-up vision through a film about tiny rodents saving the world makes the whole confection a hilarious family-friendly experience as well as a satisfying action adventure. The premise isn't earth-shattering: oddball, unexpected heroes are called on to save the day (Men in Black,Underdog, etc.). But the lowly guinea pig has been long overdue to get its moment in the spotlight. And now the free world knows whom it can really trust. The film mixes the animated heroes with real-life actors, including the sardonic British character actor Bill Nighy, who plays an evil mogul out to take over and/or destroy the world. The U.S. government, it turns out, has been nurturing a special squad for occasions just such as this. It's just that it's been nurturing them in small pens with wood shavings on the floor and running wheels for exercise. Will Arnett, deadpan and spot-on, plays the human agent who has the unenviable task of wrangling the guinea pig G-Force, and is a deft foil for the bad guys as well as for the mini-heroes.

But the true powerhouse acting belongs to those giving voices to the guinea pig agents, including Sam Rockwell, Penélope Cruz, Steve Buscemi, and, as the voice of a domesticated layabout, Jon Favreau. The film's standout, though, is Tracy Morgan, whose Agent Blaster is bellicose, fearless, and as full of malapropisms as Morgan's character on30 Rock. (In fact, the viewer keeps half-expecting Blaster to turn to Cruz's female agent, Juarez, and yell "Liz Lemon!")G-Forceis full of belly laughs for kids, as well as their action-film-fan parents.--A.T. Hurley
