Hey, hey friends! Thanksgiving is
here and there are cool movies in theater this week to chill with. Frozen,
Oldboy, Homefront and Black Nativity all come to U.S. theaters just a day
before Thanksgiving and Black Friday, Mandela: Long Walk to Freedom is all
yours to go watch.
For the synopses list of the
movies in theater this week, click here
There are 5 movies in all on the
list for this week
- Frozen
- Black Nativity
- Oldboy
- Homefront
- Mandela: Long Walk to Freedom
Frozen tells the story of a fearless optimist Princess Anna who
embarks on an journey with Kristoff, a rugged mountain man to find her sister,
Elsa whose icy powers has trapped the kingdom in eternal ice. She various creatures
and challenges on the way and all that. I really look forward to seeing this
movie because it’s animation (I REALLY love animated movies) and it has a nice
and fun plot. This movie is going to be a treat for this holiday, it will be
fun and relaxing to watch, you know; something to put you on that great mood
into Thanksgiving.
Black Nativity is about some teenage boy that was raised by his
single mother who has to go send the holidays in New York with his estranged
relatives after they were evicted from their apartment in Boston. I can imagine
it playing out; like some boy who has to go live with some people he doesn’t know
who happens to be his relatives, he probably doesn’t fancy the idea at first
but he ends up having one of the best holiday experience of his life. might I add
that the cast is great. There’s Forest Whitaker, Angela Bassett, Tyrese Gibson,
Jennifer Hudson and Mary J. Blige to name a few. I’ll love to watch.
Then, there is Oldboy. It focuses on a Joe Doucet who
was suddenly released for no apparent reason after being kidnapped and held
prisoner for twenty years. He decides to go on mission to find out the reason
behind his kidnapping, release and vengeance. I particularly like love
the caption of this movie: “Ask not why you were imprisoned. Ask why you
were set free”. Really, I can’t even start to imagine the
action and mystery, hopefully. According to Wiki, Oldboy is an American remake
of 2003 Park Chan-wook South Korean cult film, which is based on the Japanese
manga with the same name. I haven’t seen the manga version, but I hope this
movie makes sense, if you know what I mean.
Jason Statham is gracing us with
his presence this week in Homefront
and I want to see it. He stars as a low-level DEA agent who finds his quiet
family life turned upside down when he gets tangled up with a local druglord.
It sure is going to be action-packed. How can it not be? This is Jason Statham
we are talking about and he has this way of always making you feel the action
in the movie and guess who else is on this cast? The Oz Wizard himself, James
Franco. Feeling the fun into Thanksgiving yet? I definitely am.
Last but not the least this week
is a biography movie based on the life of the first democratically elected
President of South Africa, Nelson Mandela in Mandela: Long Walk to Freedom and you know who potrays the
character of Nelson Mandela? Idris Elba! I’m a huge fan of his and if you have
an idea of who Nelson Mandela his and some of the thing she has achieved, you
will know this movie is surely not going to be a waste of your black Friday time.
Lest I forget, Happy Thanksgiving
everyone; have a blissful holiday! I won’t be celebrating Thanksgiving because
it’s not a thingy thing in my country, not like in the US but I’m going to have
a lovely week too, hopefully. Have a blast guys.
Bye.
