I avdelingen er det bare Mørck og hans nye assistent, Assad. Selv om de får klare ordrer om bare å sortere og lese gjennom sakene, går det bare én enkelt dag før Carls stahet kaster dem hodestups ut i mysteriet om Merete Lynggaard, en populær og ambisiøs politiker som for fem år siden forsvant fra en ferge, og hvor det eneste vitnet er hennes hjerneskadde bror som blir funnet skrikende på bildekket. Saken blir henlagt som et antatt selvmord. Denne forklaringen overbeviser imidlertid ikke Carl og Assad, og de begir seg ut på en reise som fører dem dypt inn i samfunnets mørkeste avkroker og på sporet av et beregnende og forskrudd sinn.

Ah, so the Danish people have done it again huh? This is a tv-movie series that got recommanded to me, by a family member. And it was a great start to the story, its a crimeseries about a new specialforce to solve old cases people dont care about anymore. And with the first movie they delivered big time. Really enjoyed it.

I just rewatched this one. Watched it the first time when it came out. And i still find it quite allright. They have a good mix between the action and comedy scenes. And the banter between Tom Cruise and Cameron Diaz is actually good. If you find yourself bored, this is actually a good 2 hours.

My Thoughts:
Hm, this was a blind buy really. I bought it because of two reasons, 1, Charlie Sheen. 2, got almost for free. And the movie was actually an ok movie. But a bit weird movie for me. Guess i expected something else from it. But they made it work somehow. They got some great actionscenes here and there. And it is always allright to watch "oldschool" Charlie Sheen, when he was something.

My Thoughts:
I watched the first movie when it came out a while back. And i always wanted to see the sequal when it came out. And what a sequal it was! Great horror movie. Great moments trough out. And a great continue from the first movie. And from the looks of how things ended, and what happend in this one, they could make a movie number 3 if they want. I really hope they do anyways. What a franchise its turning out to be! Almost better (so far) that the 'Paranormal Activity' movies IMHO.

My Thoughts:

I have not seen this movie in close to 30 years! I haven't seen it snce the '80s shortly after it's release. All I remembered is that I enjoyed this one... and I must say... all ths time later and I still loved this film! The downside to this blu-ray disc is that it was released by Mills Creek.... one of the worst... very low budget release. I was actually surprised to see this one has a commentary track with Helen Slater and Yeardly Smith. But at the same time they couldn't even put a menu for scene selection!?! I would love to see a blu-ray release for this one done right!

Ah, what a great movie that was. Alfred Hitchcock did it again. The master of suspence. The story had me glued to the screen. It was a bit different then i expected, but it delivered big time (as Hitch always does) Again a masterpiece from Hitch. I'm always looking forward to watch one of his movies. I have yet to watch a bad movie from him.

My Thoughts:

I bought this film blind (never even heard of it before) soley because it stars Kevin James... who I became a fan of every since first seeing him on King of Queens. This is listed as a comedy film... and while there is comedy here... it really isn't that much. I found it more of a serious story about 2 friends. Sure there was some funny moments that put a bit of a smirk of enjoyment on my face... but there was no laugh out loud moments here. I actually thought Queen Latifa's character was the funniest in the entire movie. That being said... I did like the film. It was defintely worth the time put in to watch it.

My Thoughts:

This is the first time I have seen this one in years... probably since it first came out in the '80s. The story holds up well... even if the special effects has not. But then would you really expect them to on a film like this? I found this film to be a lot of fun. I have read reviews putting down the Beta Unit... the robot that stayed on Earth to take Alex's place. But I enjoyed those scenes as well. This one is well worth the time put in to watch it. This is one I recommend checking out if you never seen it.

I havent seen this one since i can remember. And i have never seen the upgrade to blu-ray either. And lets take the upgrade first. I think they did a good job. Picture and the sound is much better then it was. And what can we say about the movie? High paced action from start to finish. Great scenes trough out the movie. And Mel Gibson is actually doing a good job! This is just a great and fun action movie. Almost a classic. And this blu-ray comes with alot of great extras aswell! The upgrade is worth the money IMHO.

My Thoughts:

OK... this is not my usual type of movie. But when I saw this disc super cheap (less then $5) and remembered I somewhat enjoyed the first one that I would give it a chance. First of all not as good as the first one. They just didn't have the talent the first one had... I mean come on... how do you beat Eliza Dushku and Kristen Dunst? But even with that said... I wouldn't call this one terrible. So I would say it was entertaining enough considering what I paid for it... but it isn't something I see watching too often.

Plot:
We’ve always known that Spider-Man’s most important battle has been within himself: the struggle between the ordinary obligations of Peter Parker and the extraordinary responsibilities of Spider-Man. But in The Amazing Spider-Man 2, Peter Parker finds that a greater conflict lies ahead.
It’s great to be Spider-Man (Andrew Garfield). For Peter Parker, there’s no feeling quite like swinging between skyscrapers, embracing being the hero, and spending time with Gwen (Emma Stone). But being Spider-Man comes at a price: only Spider-Man can protect his fellow New Yorkers from the formidable villains that threaten the city. With the emergence of Electro (Jamie Foxx), Peter must confront a foe far more powerful than he. And as his old friend, Harry Osborn (Dane DeHaan), returns, Peter comes to realize that all of his enemies have one thing in common: OsCorp

My Thoughts:

I was so excited to see ths movie. While I wasn't disappointed... as it is a good movie... it wasn't as good as the first one. Going by the trailer I was a little concerned on how they portrayed Electro. But after seeing the movie I found they did him pretty cool. Not thrilled with the storyline with Gwen Stacy though I do understand how they got there... so I can forgive that. But what I can't forgive is how they portrayed Rhino. I just did not like how they did him at all. But over-all a very good movie... this one is definitely worth every moment put in to watch it.

My Thoughts:

Not all that pleased with this one. It had it's moments here and there... but for the most part it just didn't work for me. I found most the comedy just not funny. That or was something I seen elsewhere more then once, It didn't help that I was never much of a fan of Will Ferrell... of Mark Wahlberg for that matter. But I found it super-cheap so figured I would give it a chance as I thought the basic storyline had promise. Unfortunately it just didn't work. The best I could give this one is average.

My Thoughts:

I remember seeing this one before... and thinking it was only OK. But when I saw the disc at the store I had the urge to watch it again. On second viewing I thought it was great! Normally I find Adam Sandler really hit and miss on his films... this one I find to be a definite hit. Put that along with Kevin James and several others and we have here a really good time! This movie is a lot of fun... well worth the time put in to watch it! Definitely recommend checking it out if you haven't yet.

I now have the urge to walk up to the local Redbox and see if they have the second one I could rent. Though it's not like I don't have plenty here to watch as it is!
