Now You See Me

Description:
An FBI agent and an Interpol detective track a team of illusionists who pull off bank heists during their performances and reward their audiences with the money.
                                                    
The movie was great; I wanted to see this movie so badly for some time. The ending is pretty good, though it still leaves many questions. I like how they explained majority of all the illusions. The plot twist at the end was good.

The Dark Knight Rises

Description:
Eight years on, a new evil rises from where the Batman and Commissioner Gordon tried to bury it, causing the Batman to resurface and fight to protect Gotham City... the very city which brands him an enemy.
                                                           
I find it very odd how people find out that Bruce Wayne is Batman throughout the trilogy. I thought the Legion of Shadows thing was taken care of in the first movie, and that Fox had quit after the last movie. How does nobody draw the connection of Batman and Bruce Wayne; both go "missing"for eight years, Bruce can magically walk when Batman returns, both start becoming active at the same time, and both are assumed to die at the same time...And Scarecrow is still making appearances. Honestly the whole Bane idea is confusing, also
since I kept thinking about Bane from 'Batman and Robin'.

Death Note

Description:
Light, a bright student who stumbles across a mystical notebook that has the power to kill any person whose name he writes in it. Light decides to launch a secret crusade to rid the streets of criminals. Soon, the student-turned-vigilante finds himself pursued by a famous FBI criminal pro-filer known only by the alias L.
                                                
Awesome, forgot a lot from when I first watched, enough to merge the two movies mentally in my head. So I was sort of heartbroken at the end  when I thought there was more. I like how no one pays attention to what Light really says, since many times it's like blinking lights going "I am Kira!". Loved Ryuk's addiction to apples and his slight need for attention. Liked the strategies that both "L" and "Kira" use in their little game, and honestly thought that something would be messed up before I watched it the first time, but I feel that they did a great job.

Final Fantasy VII: Advent Children

Description:
An ex-mercenary is forced out of isolation when three mysterious men kidnap and brainwash the city's children afflicted with the Geostigma disease.
                                                         
I was very lost due not playing the video games or watching the other movies. Lovely graphics, and plot if I knew the plot...hopefully. It kind of made me want to get off my lazy butt, buy the game, and look for the other movie/animes.....but laziness won. I doubt the movie/animes will help a lot though, because there are not a total of seven movie/animes....oh well. Cloud's bike breaks many laws of physics, but so does many things about the movie....video games...

I would love to learn more about it, is I guess what it boils down to

The Woman in Black

Description:
A young lawyer travels to a remote village where he discovers the vengeful ghost of a scorned woman is terrorizing the locals.
                                                   
Okay movie. Didn't want to watch it at first, since it seemed boring and that sometimes I forget that an actor can be anything but one character...which I kind of did with now so far three people: Daniel Radcliffe, Kristen Stewart, and Robert Patterson. The movie would have been better if maybe I had watched it in a theater, so the sound was not amazing, and we could not really hear them as they whispered...since it was a ghost movie there was a lot of that. Didn't see the ending coming, and since it ending like that does that mean the entire movie was basically useless. since nothing really happens when you get down to it. Not sure what the point of the movie was....
