Your Highness (2011) Review

When Prince Fabious’s bride is kidnapped, he goes on a quest to rescue her… accompanied by his lazy useless brother Thadeous. But this is no normal medieval film, it has a very funny take on those type of films. In fact it makes fun of them and itself in such a good way.

Quite a lot of posters have now been released for the up and coming (and much talked about) Hangover Part II. Which see’s the guys head to Thailand, and I am sure we can start to imagine all of the trouble they are going to find themselves in!

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part II (2011) Poster

The first poster has been released for the most anticipated film of the year in the final chapter of the Harry Potter series. It really is just a fantastic way to start off what I can imagine will be a lot of posters. We are used to seeing loads for the Potter films and I am sure this one will be no different and possibly even have more than the previous films!

Puss in Boots (2011) Poster

The first poster has been released for ‘Puss in Boots’ a spin off with the character from ‘Shrek’.

The Other Woman (2009) Poster & Trailer

Fresh off her Oscar win this film which has two titles going around originally ‘Love and Other Impossible Pursuits’ and the most recently used ‘The Other Woman’. Fresh off her Oscar win on Sunday seems to have given this film fresh hope, looks pretty good performance wise to me with an interesting storyline to go along with it. Portman certainly is woman of the moment and that is fine by me!

X-Men: First Class (2011) Posters & Trailer

How it all began for Charles and Erik aka Professor X and Magneto. I cannot make my mind up if I think this looks good or not, the trailer doesn’t really give much away. It has to be good for the X-Men series as Wolverine Origins was very disappointing.

Oscars 2011: 10 out of 10 for Best Pictures

I have managed to achieve what would seem impossible and watch all ten of the best picture nominations before the Oscar ceremony. Usually this is not possible due to UK release date. But this year a lot of the films seem to have been earlier than usual in the Oscar race. With the help of LOVEFiLM for a couple of Blu Ray’s to make sure I achieved the goal of seeing each film before the ceremony. I am still no further forward in being able to predict the winner the Academy will choose. I mean we know they have made some mistakes in the past.

This is the second year in row which has seen 1o films being nominated for Best Picture. Which allows a few films into the category which would not make the final 5 in the old format. I guess this is just a way to make some films more well-known. Or for the more seen films to receive a nomination. Who can really tell . . . but does that mean they have a better chance of winning? Probably not.

The ten films which have been nominated this year all bring something very different to the Oscar stage. I have to say out of them the ones I have enjoyed the most have to be Black Swan and Inception, with True Grit and The King’s Speech following them.

Black Swan and Inception both had very similar impacts on me as I was still thinking about them days after seeing them at the cinema. They really get into your head and stick in there too. Make you really think about the film, and keep you trying to figure out how you perceive them.
