PRINCE OF PERSIA : THE SANDS OF TIME MOVIE REVIEW......

Maybe I'm getting too old for conventional, cheesy and clichéd Hollywood blockbusters because for some reason I really found it tough to stay awake in Disney's adaptation of the Prince of Persia: Sands of Time (which thankfully was not in 3D).

Extremely loosely based on Ubisoft's resurrection of the Prince of Persia series, the Sands of Time sees Prince Dastan - played by Jake Gyllenhaal - on a noble quest to prevent armageddon at the hands of the dastardly Nizam (Ben Kingsley). In this noble endeavor he's aided by Princess Tamina played annoyingly by Gemma Arterton. Tagging along for the ride are a bunch of one dimensional, clichéd characters found in most Disney family movies, most of which are too generic to even mention. One character however stands out from the pact and that's Sheik Amar, played by Alfred Molina who brings some much needed humor to this movie.

To be honest Gylllenhaal nearly pulled off the charming, brash and suave prince we've come to know from the Sands of Time (the game). He also brought in this devil may care attitude to the mix that was appreciated. Princess Tamina on the other hand came across as an extremely whiny little damsel in distress who I personally hoped met a grizzly end. But alas that didn't happen, this being a stupid PG rated movie and all. In fact a huge part of me died with the whole PG rating as most action sequences were too tame for my tastes. No I wasn't expecting a blood fest like 300 but you can still pull off a battle scene without catering to just five year olds you know.

Also for some reason I think the director got his games mixed up. You're making Prince of Persia man, not Assassin's Creed (AC). What was up with the excessive amount of free running, some of which was pretty much lifted straight from AC? I was expecting more wall running and definitely more usage of the Sands of Time themselves. I'm talking slowing time down, freezing enemies or any other cool visual tricks the movie could have implemented. Instead I got a few measly time rewinds and Jake Gylanhall running around semi topless doing CG somersaults – and free running for two hours (now I know why women liked this movie). Oh and the CG in this movie was not bad per say but it really paled in comparison to some of the stuff we've seen in recent times.

Contrary to what this review may make you believe I am not the Citizen Kane loving kind and I really don't expect movies like Prince of Persia to rock my world. What pisses me of is the fact that everything in this movie is so painfully clichéd it made me sick to my stomach. I went in there expecting a mindless yet entertaining game to movie adaptation. What I got was mindless yes, but a barely entertaining Disney flick that probably gave me diabetes with its saccharine sweet treatment to the whole franchise.

Samsung develops USB-powered desktop PC monitor, plans 2011 street date

We've seen more than our fair share of USB displays as of late, and on the whole they're usually tiny -- say, around 7-inches. Sure, they're well-suited for someone who wants to get that Tweetdeck or their IRCSamsung's poised to take the whole affair to the next level with its new 18.5-inch LCD display. By "improving the transmittance of the panel and the luminance efficiency of the backlight," Tech-on! notes, the company was able to keep power consumption down to 6.3W -- low enough that a forked USB 2.0 cable is sufficient to power the thing as well as supply data. The only drawback? Apparently the device uses an edge-lit backlight that limits the device's lifetime to 30,000 hours compared to 50,000 for existing LCD monitors). According to the company, you can look forward to seeing these things hit store shelves sometime in 2011

Kites Review....

Kites is a special movie in the fact that Bollywood heartthrob Hrithik Roshan makes his international debut in this film. This is an ambitious venture of Rajesh Roshan who has made Kites the Bollywood’s crossover film. The film was released in India on May21, 2010 and had an impressive 208-theater opening in North America thus becoming it the largest Bollywood release in America.

Kites has indeed managed to soar like a “kite” and has sailed smoothly across the domestic borders. However, the movie was not well received among Indians in India. Let’s have a look at the cast and the movie’s story.

Cast: Hrithik Roshan, Barbara Mori, Kabir Bedi, Kangna Ranaut, Nicholas Brown
Producer/story: Rakesh Roshan
Director: Rakesh Roshan
Music:Rajesh Roshan
Screenwriters: Robin Bhatt, Akarsh Khurana, Anurag Basu
Length: 130 mins

Kites is an action-packed love story shot at the backdrop of Las Vegas and having India’s one of the most charismatic actors as its lead cast. This movie proves to be a landmark in the acting career of Hrithik Roshan who plays the central role in the film. The international version of the movie has been edited by Brett Ratner and is 90 minutes longer......to view the whole review video play the video below....
