A new R rated trailer was released for “Repo Men“. For those of you who are not acquainted let’s talk about a bit about the movie.

“Repo Men” presents an alternative future where human lives can be prolonged with artificial body organs bought from the usual bad guys the all time “company”, here called “The Union”, I think. All fine and dandy, until you can now longer provide the payments. This is the moment when the Repo Men come after you to get the organ back at all costs.

Jude Law is one of this Repo Men and toghether with Forest Withaker they seem to do a great job. Problem is that one day Remy (Jude Law) gets hurt in one of his “jobs” and he gets to get an organ from “The Union”. Now from what I see in the trailer, although you would expect a Repo Men to be well payed Remy is unable to pay for his life so he is going to do it with style, the fighting way.

Enough talk for the moment, let’s watch the R Rated trailer:

To be honest this trailer did not inspire that much as the original one did. All in all I am excited about this one. I want to see how Jude Law will pull off a performance in “Matrix” style and I’m especially looking forward to the performance from Forest Whitaker whom I enjoyed in almost every movie I’ve seen with him.

For the ending of the article I’ll let you enjoy the original trailer:

"Sherlock Holmes" – Review

I went yesterday to the Cinemas, that’s always a pleasure, and sitting there, I noticed I know all the trailers, previews etc. etc. I just loved the trailer for “Inception” which seen on my computer did not have the same sound effect.

Uh Oh! I almost forgot! I also saw the new “Sherlock Holmes” movie and I just don’t know what to say about it.

I remember being all excited about this movie since about June last year when I first saw a trailer or something, and just could not wait for Christmas then, just because of Robert Downey Jr.

I was sitting in the hall way in front of the door and was all excited and scared that the movie will not rise to the occasion. And it didn’t.

Let’s see, the main thing that bothered me was the actual story, which included a lot of magic. So the basic story is that Sherlock Holmes (Robert Downey Jr.) and his partner (Jude Law) catch a serial killer, Lord Blackwood, which will be trialled and hanged. So far so good. The problem is that Blackwood will then be resurrected and then a series of events takes place that puts us in a high speed action movie that kind of takes you in. The other thing I did not like, is that they made Sherlock some sort of super fighter, Matrix style, which from my point of view is kind of bullshit. There are two scenes of this sort of fighting which although fun, they did not fit to the story.

Robert Downey Jr. and Jude Law played their parts magnificent and made the movie enjoyable, actually this is the only reason for which I will not bitch about “Sherlock Holmes”, they made the two hours spent in a chair.

So, if you have the chance, go see it. Otherwise don’t worry that much.

PS: for those who care: the director is Guy Ritchie
