Hanks and Roberts together
TOM Hanks and Julie Roberts team up in the romantic comedy Larry Crowne, in which the former, unclear on what to do with his free time, heads to his local college to start over. There he becomes part of a colourful community of outcasts, also-rans and the overlooked all trying to find a better future for themselves…often moving around town in a herd of scooters.
In his public-speaking class, Larry develops an unexpected crush on his teacher Mercedes Tainot (Roberts), who has lost as much passion for teaching as she has for her husband.
Michael Bay turns on the action…again
DIRECTOR, Michael Bay, is known in the industry for his big action movies, those that appeal to a mass audience, have cinema managers sporting a smile and allow studios to put something aside for their next blockbuster.
Well, Bay comes up with the goodies again in Transformers:Dark of the Moon, arguably the best in the franchise to date.
For the uninitiated, the franchise is based on the bestselling Hasbro toy, and is essentially an ongoing story about good robots and bad robots (transformers) from outer space who are now resident on planet earth and who fight each other, a lot
The Autobots Bumblebee, Ratchet, Ironhide and Sideswipe led by Optimus Prime, return to action, taking on the evil Decepticons, who are determined to avenge their defeat in 2009s Transformers Revenge of the Fallen.
Now, the Autobots and Decepticons become involved in a perilous space race between the U.S. and Russia, and once again human Sam Witwicky, has to come to the aid of his robot friends. There’s new characters too, including a villain in the form of Shockwave, a longtime “Transformers” character who rules Cybertron while the Autobots and Decepticons battle it out on Earth.
