4:18 AM - Justin Timberlake in New Sci-fi Film In Time

Have you imagined that human beings will stay young forever in the future? Of course, this couldn't happen in the reality, but in the movie, everything is possible, sci-fi film "In time" presents us a future that everyone will not grow up until they reach 25-years-old.



In a future where time is literally money and aging stops at 25, the only way to stay alive is to earn, steal, or inherit more time. You can hand over your time with a sort of secret handshake, which is a little too easy and feels like a cheat. Nearly every twist and turn of the plot seems designed to remind of that most fundamental truth - every moment alive puts you one step closer to death. In this new age it's called "timing out," a very neat and tidy process - too neat and tidy. So the tension started by all that ticking too quickly drains away.

Will Salas (Justin Timberlake) lives minute-to-minute, until a windfall of time gives him access to the world of the wealthy, where he teams up with a beautiful young heiress Sylvia Weis(Amanda Seyfried)to destroy the corrupt system. But Will Salas is falsely accused of murder, he must figure out a way to bring down a system where time is money - literally - enabling the wealthy to live forever while the poor, like Will, have to beg, borrow, and steal enough minutes to make it through another day, seems like this time Timberlake has different performance, compared his other movie "Friends with Benefits", in "In Time", he is more like a hero, you know, kick bad guys, save the world or something, if you would like to watch it on your portable devices, you can do that with video converter reviews, it's more convenient if you want to share this film with other people.

Cillian Murphy plays a "time charger", in short, a law-executor in that community. He and Penny Collins works together to hunt down Will. And the 31-year-old Vincent Kartheiser who is famous for "Mad Men" plays Amanda Seyfried's father, but you are supposed to know that the father he plays is only 24, well, no one will be older than 25 if they have money to buy time. The age gap between the father and daughter is not great, and Vincent is a baby face, so perhaps directors chose these actors aims to let us feel time confusion. Johnny Galecki(The Big Bang Theory)plays Will's best friend. And there are a bunch of young actors including Alex Pettyfer and Matt Bomer.



"In Time" was supposed to turn Timberlake into a superhero, though given the way he manages a fairly massive pop career with an increasingly impressive acting portfolio ("Social Network" most recently), that may not be necessary. He brings an interesting sensibility to his characters, Will included, that suggest a complex interior that "In Time" never quite reveals. The same goes for Seyfried ("Mamma Mia!" "Red Riding Hood"), who can do a lot more than use those big eyes and sleek lines.

Maybe you think the plot is too boring, but think about it, we don't have many chances that can enjoy so many young actors' performance at same time, after all, they are all 25 or more younger, so how about upload it to your iPad or other iDevices with mac video converter to watch it whenever you want.

2:50 AM - Men in Black III coming in 2012

Columbia Pictures has announced that "Men in Black 3" will be released on May 25, 2012 in the form of 3D stereoscopic film. Maybe you still remember the first episode and second one were launched in 1997 and 2002 respectively, "Men in Black 3" is coming in 2012 after ten years since the second sequel, and Spielberg serves as the executive producer. If you are still interested in it, you can upload it to your portable devices with dvd shrink for mac after it being released.



Here is the specific information about the actors in Men in Black III: Will Smith, Tommy Lee Jones, Josh Brolin, Jemaine Clement and Tony Shalhoub. About the movie: Agent Jay travels back in time to 1969, where he teams up with a younger version of Agent Kay to stop an evil alien from destroying the future. Just like the first two films, which together grossed more than $1 billion worldwide, Smith and Tommy Lee Jones act as alien-monitoring agents, complete with classic buddy cop repartee and big-budget effects. The screenplay of Men in Black 3 is created by screenwriter Etan Cohen who is famous for Tropic Thunder. Will Smith still plays Jay and Josh Brolin plays the young Kay.

Now you guy can search the trailer of Men in Black in the Internet. It's worrying that the majority is spent revisiting the elements of Men in Black that audiences already know and love, says Katey Rich at Cinema Blend, waiting until the last 30 seconds to introduce the potentially wonky time travel plot. The "mediocre" trailer "makes me wonder if they're still working out the plot kinks in the editing room." I actually like that the trailer didn't reveal too much of the plot, says Mike Lee at Fused Film. The mystery makes me more interested in the movie.



We've known since the first set photos that Brolin was an eerie dead ringer for a younger Tommy Lee Jones, crucial to the plot of Men In Black 3, which has Smith's Agent J traveling back in time and teaming up with a younger Agent K to solve some sort of mystery. Given that the previous two films relied on the odd and sometimes fractious chemistry between the jangly Smith and the tight-jawed Jones, Brolin was going to be in the tough position of playing a youngish man who still had Agent K's cranky charm. And yes, in the three seconds of time he gets in the Men in Black 3 trailer, we mostly see Brolin nail Jones's Texas accent and stony facial expressions-- but still, he seems to have everything he needs to pull the impression off marvelously.

For Smith, I gotta say it's not a worthy vehicle for him, if he is wise enough, then he won't choose this work for his return to the screen, because the time jump plot seems defective, but for you, if you are not picky and just want to literally watch this movie, then, you can have expectation on it, at that time, you can share it with your friends together after converting it to your iPad or other devices with mac dvd ripper, this classic sequel definitely can let you have a great time.
