Daybreakers



kapanlagi.com, Di tahun 2019, bumi dilanda wabah ganas yang dalam waktu singkat menulari manusia dan mengubahnya menjadi makhluk peminum darah yang dikenal dengan nama vampire. Dalam waktu singkat hampir seluruh manusia telah berubah menjadi vampire dan ini menimbulkan masalah baru. Siapa yang akan mereka mangsa jika manusia habis?

Edward Dalton (Ethan Hawke) seorang ilmuwan yang telah menjadi vampire mau tak mau harus berusaha keras untuk mencari cara untuk mengatasi makin langkanya manusia yang menjadi sumber kehidupan mereka. Kalau manusia musnah maka mau tak mau kaum vampire akan kehilangan sumber makanan dan akan punah juga.
Para vampire ini telah membuat sebuah sistem untuk memanfaatkan darah manusia sampai tetes terakhir tanpa harus membuangnya dengan sia-sia namun tetap saja itu tak cukup karena suatu saat darah yang ada di dalam tubuh manusia ini akan habis. Kini para vampire ini dihadapkan satu dilema: mencari pengganti makanan atau berusaha menyelamatkan manusia dari kepunahan, sesuatu yang sebenarnya mereka awali sendiri.

Wabah vampire memang sedang melanda dunia. Suksesnya UNDERWORLD yang diikuti dengan munculnya TWILIGHT membuat legenda lama yang sudah ada sejak ribuan tahun yang lalu ini jadi mewabah. Masing-masing sutradara pun berusaha menawarkan penafsiran mereka terhadap makhluk abadi yang hidup dari darah manusia ini termasuk DAYBREAKERS ini. Kalau harus membandingkan DAYBREAKERS ini dengan dua film bergenre vampire tersebut di atas, barangkali yang satu ini lebih condong ke arah UNDERWORLD.
Kalau UNDERWORLD mencoba menggali perseteruan antara kaum vampire dan werewolf yang sudah berusia ribuan tahun dalam konteks modern, DAYBREAKERS ini justru memilih berandai-andai. Bagaimana seandainya seluruh dunia ini dilanda virus yang mengubah manusia menjadi vampire dan manusia malah jadi kaum minoritas? Apa yang terjadi dengan teknologi apabila vampire yang berkuasa di muka bumi?

Hasil imajinasi dua sutradara bersaudara, Michael Spierig dan Peter Spierig inilah yang menjadi dasar dari DAYBREAKERS ini. Namun tentu saja kita tidak hanya diajak berandai-andai. Ada metafora di sana. Kalau mau sedikit jeli, sebenarnya kita bisa berkaca pada film ini dan melihat problema yang kita hadapi saat ini dalam film ini. Teknologi sekarang pun sedang berusaha mencari pengganti minyak bumi yang makin habis, sama seperti para vampire yang berusaha mencari pengganti darah manusia.
Terlepas dari pesan moral yang berusaha disampaikan ini, DAYBREAKERS tetaplah sebuah tontonan yang menarik. Ethan Hawke, Willem Dafoe, Sam Neill, dan Claudia Karvan bermain meyakinkan sebagai karakter yang mereka bawakan sementara alur cerita pun cukup enak untuk diikuti. Jangan berharap menonton film sekualitas Oscar karena film ini adalah film yang dibuat untuk menghibur.(kpl/roc)

The Book of Eli





Eli (Denzel Washington) telah melakukan perjalanan selama 30 tahun, berjalan ke barat di seluruh Amerika setelah perang dahsyat yang mengubah bumi menjadi gurun total. Dunia telah menjadi sebuah peradaban tanpa hukum di mana orang harus membunuh atau dibunuh. Jalan tandus milik geng pemotong leher yang merampok dan membunuh untuk air, sepasang sepatu, ringan, atau hanya untuk bersenang-senang. Eli adalah orang damai yang hanya bertindak dalam pertahanan diri, dan menjadi seorang prajurit dengan keahlian membunuh luar biasa ketika ia ditantang. Setelah perang dan "Big Flash", Eli dipandu oleh kekuatan yang lebih tinggi untuk sebuah buku yang tersembunyi dan diberi tugas melindungi buku itu dan membawanya ke tujuan akhir. Eli penjaga buku dengan hidupnya, karena ia tahu bahwa buku itu adalah satu-satunya harapan umat manusia yang telah untuk masa depan.

**** Spoiler **** ENDING

Eli dan Solara adalah dayung di perairan dangkal Samudra Pasifik ke Pulau Alcatraz. Saat mencapai pulau itu, Eli memberitahu para penjaga bahwa ia memiliki utuh King James Bible. Mereka mengatakan kepadanya untuk menunggu di mana dia berada.

Kembali di kantor Carnegie di kotanya, seorang insinyur berusaha hati-hati memilih kunci buku Carnegie merebut dari Eli.

Eli dan Solara yang dikawal ke pulau di mana kurator itu, Lombardi (Malcolm McDowell) menjelaskan bahwa pulau ini lebih dari sebuah museum - itu adalah di mana ia dan semua pengikutnya bekerja untuk menyimpan dan mengumpulkan segala pengetahuan, seni, dan lain sisa-sisa kebudayaan manusia sebelum kiamat, karena mereka dapat, dengan tujuan, ketika mereka siap, berbagi dengan manusia sehingga mereka dapat mulai kembali belajar semua yang mereka kehilangan. Mereka telah mengumpulkan sejumlah besar literatur, tetapi melewatkan Alkitab utuh - sampai sekarang. Eli mengatakan Alkitab itu adalah 'memukuli, tetapi akan melakukan pekerjaan itu. "

Kembali di kantor Carnegie, insinyur akhirnya berhasil memicu mengunci dan membuka buku diambil dari Eli. Carnegie sita itu, membukanya, dan mulai melihat-lihat halaman dalam kekafirannya, mengulang-ulang, "ia tidak dapat 'dan' tidak mungkin." Kita melihat bahwa buku ini ditulis dalam huruf Braille.

Eli telah membawa orang-orang Lombardi's Lombardi besar tumpukan kertas dan mulai membaca Alkitab dari memori, setelah menghafal lebih dari tiga puluh tahun membaca kembali. Saat ia mengucapkan, dan menulis Lombardi, dan Solara jam di daya tarik penuh, kamera perlahan memperbesar pada wajah Eli untuk menunjukkan bahwa matanya jelas mengalami kerusakan parah - mungkin dari flash super terang-intens dari sebuah ledakan nuklir - dan ia menatap kosong ke angkasa. Eli telah membutakan dalam kiamat dan navigasikan jalan di seluruh benua melalui indra yang lain, untuk mengasah ketajaman luar biasa selama tiga puluh tahun.

Carnegie telah Claudia dibawa ke kantornya untuk membaca Alkitab Braille. Claudia tahu bahwa Solara belum kembali dan menyalahkan Carnegie. Tangannya sikat halaman dan ia menyadari bahwa Carnegie kebutuhannya untuk membaca buku ini karena dia buta dan dididik dalam huruf Braille. Merasa daya tiba-tiba atas dirinya, Claudia tersenyum vindictively dan kebohongan untuk Carnegie, mengatakan bahwa dia belum membaca huruf Braille dalam jangka panjang sehingga dia lupa caranya. Dia juga mengatakan kepadanya bahwa ia dapat mencium kakinya, menyiratkan bahwa itu telah menjadi sangat terinfeksi. Tangannya mengulurkan tangan untuk wajahnya, dan ia membungkuk ke depan untuk menyentuh dahinya ke tangannya. Claudia mengatakan kepadanya bahwa dia mengorbankan begitu banyak orang, begitu banyak penjaga dan penegak bagi buku itu, bahwa semua orang kota yang takut untuk berbicara nama-Nya telah meledak menjadi anarki habis-habisan dan merobek bar, dan bahwa dia bisa merasakan dari dahi Carnegie bahwa ia menderita demam yang buruk. Merasa puas seberapa dekat Carnegie adalah untuk sesuatu yang dia berjuang begitu keras untuk dan mengorbankan begitu banyak kehidupan, hanya untuk itu harus sama seolah-olah satu juta mil jauhnya, Claudia berjalan pergi, meninggalkan Carnegie. Dia berkelana ke balkon di atas ruang bar bar dan melihat semua orang bebas untuk penjarahan semua itu, mengambil apa saja yang mereka dapat membawa dan cara mereka melawan siapa pun masa lalu di depan mereka. Setelah kehilangan kendali di seluruh domain, dan sekarang mati juga, merosot Carnegie terhadap pegangan tangga putus asa.

Kita melihat Eli mencukur kumisnya dan kepalanya dan don jubah putih bersih. Sebuah sulih suara dari Eli mengucapkan apa yang mungkin kata-kata terakhir, sebuah doa kepada Allah, seperti yang kita lihat dia terus membaca Alkitab kata demi kata, ayat untuk ayat, untuk Lombardi yang tanpa lelah menulis semuanya di atas kertas, sementara Solara tidur pada sofa kecil di ujung meja. Seperti Eli doa terus, kita melihat percetakan Alcatraz membuat salinan cetak hardcover baru disiapkan menyelesaikan King James Bible, dan kita melihat Solara berlutut di atas kuburan Eli, menunjukkan ia akhirnya meninggal karena luka-lukanya. Dia diam-diam berdoa di kuburan dan meletakkan bunga di sana. Lombardi naik ke Solara dan meyakinkan bahwa dia memiliki rumah di sana, di Alcatraz dengan dia dan orang-orangnya jika dia keinginan, dan bahwa dia akan aman di antara mereka. Solara bersyukur untuk menawarkan, tetapi dia merasa kewajiban untuk melakukan apa yang dia percaya dia harus. Lombardi bertanya di mana ia berencana untuk pergi dan ia berkata polos, "rumah."

Kita melihat Solara melangkah keluar dari gerbang kompleks Alcatraz sebagai berkat doa Eli sulih suara Tuhan untuk persahabatan Solara, dan bagi Allah untuk mengawasinya seperti Dia telah mengawasi Eli sendiri. Kita melihat Solara menyarungkan parang Eli atas bahunya, dan plug earphone untuk iPod-nya ke telinganya. Eli doa berkat Allah untuk istirahat, ia sekarang pergi ke, seperti yang kita lihat tempat Lombardi Alkitab diselesaikan pada rak di antara karya agama lainnya, termasuk salinan cetak dari Taurat Ibrani dan Quran Muslim.

Film ini ditutup dengan kata-kata akhir doa terakhir Eli, mengatakan ia telah menyelesaikan pekerjaannya, memenangkan perlombaan, dan memelihara iman, seperti yang kita lihat Solara memulai iPod Eli, dan mulai berjalan jalan di awal perjalanan sendiri. .. untuk menemukan ibunya, dan menyebarkan berita harapan bahwa Eli membawa; kata-kata harapan bagi umat manusia masa depan ... dan menggembalakan mereka ke tempat mereka bisa belajar dari harapan mereka hampir hilang.

Stealth





Director: Rob Cohen
Writer (WGA): W.D. Richter (written by)
Release Date: 29 July 2005 (USA)
Tagline: Fear The Sky
Synopsis:
U.S. Navy pilots Ben Gannon (Josh Lucas), Henry Purcell (Jamie Foxx), and Kara Wade (Jessica Biel) are the best of the best. Captain George Cummings (Sam Shepard) chose them out of 400 pilots to fly the next generation of stealth fighter jets called Talons. After their flight training in the Talons, they have become a cohesive unit and a highly efficient fighting team. Captain Cummings adds a new "wingman" to the team, an Unmanned Combat Aerial Vehicle (UCAV) that is being flown by "EDI", a computer with an artificial intelligence brain mounted in a ball inside the cockpit. On their first mission, EDI begins to learn the skills and attitudes of the other pilots, and quickly understands that he can fly the plane better and faster than men. EDI has the capability to process data faster, and under extreme speeds will not blackout. Returning to the aircraft carrier, EDI is struck by lightning, which begins to change the computer's circuits. On the next flight, EDI refuses to scrub a mission despite the potential for massive civilian casualties. Upon return to base, Ben implores Captain Cummings to remove EDI from duty for further testing; Cummings ignores Ben's objections, and EDI's computer tech (who was beginning to suspect EDI was going rogue) is mysteriously replaced by much more docile techs. EDI begins to think for itself, and assigns itself a mission to take out a radical element in China. EDI cuts his link with the flight controller on the carrier, and he will not take a direct order from Ben. Henry locates and chases EDI, and gives it an ultimatum: return to base, or he will take it out. EDI declines to return to base. Henry fires his missiles, misses EDI, and is himself killed by the explosions. If you thought it was unbelievable up 'til now, it gets worse. Back on the carrier, Captain Cummings, in cahoots with his political advisor, decides to destroy EDI, the pilots, and Dr. Orbit, the creator of the plane's AI, to cover up the fiasco. Kara's plane was damaged in the explosion, and she must return to the carrier; en route, her engines fail, she ejects and is injured on her descent, crashing in North Korea. Pursued by N. Korean soldiers, Kara struggles toward the S. Korean border. Meanwhile, Ben chases EDI and manages to talk it back under control. Cummings tells Ben to head to a remote Alaskan base "not on any map" for repairs, EDI in tow. He comes in hot and survives a crash landing. Cummings has had Dr. Orbit brought there, and orders him to wipe EDI's memory. The base personnel turn out to be under Cumming's thumb. Ben survives an attempt on his life by the "medic" tending his injuries, makes his way to the hangar, and in a blaze of gunfire, stops the EDI memory-wipe. He goes inside EDI, blows open the hangar doors with a missile, and flies off in EDI to rescue Kara while Dr. Orbit also escapes. Kara has made it to no-man's land on the Korean border, but it looks like her luck has run out as she is pinned down by enemy fire. Ben and EDI arrive just in time; Ben exits EDI to kiss Kara; EDI, out of missiles, launches itself into a N.Korean helicopter gunship to save the lovers, and they make their way to safety.

Hitman





Director: Xavier Gens
Writer (WGA): Skip Woods (written by)
Release Date: 23 November 2007 (Indonesia)

This one is my favourite, couze it adapt perfectly from the game itself. You will notice there are a lot of similarity between the game and the movie. Red ties and the black siuts. Perfect.

We start on a rainy street in London, where Interpol officer Mike Whittier (Dougray Scott) is just arriving home after a continually frustrating case. He goes inside and turns on a couple lights and fixes himself a drink. The lights fail, and he heads for his home office to try and fix it. He enters the office and someone says, "Nice family," commenting on the pictures. Whittier turn and sees the ruthless hitman known only to those who know as Agent 47 (Timothy Olyphant, who far surpasses expectations). 47 assures Whittier that if he wanted to kill him than he would have done it that morning as he left for work, but instead he just wants to talk. He warns Whittier that depending on his answers he can either die or keep living. He then proceeds to ask Whittier if he thinks he (Whittier) is a good man, and what can make a good man kill....

We jump back in time three months, to the Niger River Valley. A group of African gangsters are bringing in an old man -- presumably someone who didn't deliver -- to see their warlord. The man starts weeping, and the warlord notices something on his chest and asks one of the toughs about it. When the tough says that this is how he was delivered, we zoom out and see Agent 47 watching from a distant rooftop. He looks at a remote in his hand and presses a button, and the man, the druglord, and everyone around them blow sky-high. Not long after, we see Whittier and his partner, Jenkins (Michael Offei) arguing with the Nigerian police about 47 and how they need cooperation. We also find out that Whittier has been chasing 47 for three years and that he has connected 47 to over one hundred kills across the globe. Meanwhile, we see 47 in a bar in St. Petersburg where a woman named June is unsuccessfully trying to hook up with him. He bids her good night and heads back for his room, pausing only to put something in a nearby ice chest. After going into his room and setting a door bomb in case of unwanted guests, 47 calls his agency contact Diana on the computer. She tells him about the next job -- Mikhail Belicoff, president of Russia (Ulrich Thomsen). Diana advises him that the person who hired them wants to make it public, and 47 gets a look on his face but still agrees to the mission.

The next day, Belikoff is giving a speech regarding the upcoming election when a sniper bullet of 47's suddenly takes him out. 47 stows the sniper rifle in his case and runs off, leaving just before the case blows up, eliminating any evidence. That night though, he finds out two things -- Belikoff is still alive (meaning he won't get paid) and there was a witness, a little Russian girl. 47 is furious (as much as he ever gets) and tells Diana that if he is being set up by her, he will kill everyone in the agency. He then demands to know who ordered the hit and instead of going over the computer, Diana actually calls him and says it was.....Belikoff? Things go from bad to worse though when a team led by Whittier shows up to bag 47. However, he makes quick work out of all of them with two pistols he had stowed in the ice chest earlier before jumping out the window and into the Neva River. During the rundown, Whittier chews out the general who told the troops to go ahead, but is stopped by the arrival of FSB agent Yuri Marklow (Robert Knepper), who isn't too happy with Interpol doing a manhunt without their authorization. Also, when sifting through the evidence, Mike and Jenkins find a case of 47s containing a few small bottles with the symbol for the organization on them and a cross, which they eventually find has a Latin inscription of "Open the door to the lord and he shall guide your path forever" (or something like that) on it.

Elsewhere, 47 has acquired a new suit (his regular suit from the games plus a snazzy black trenchcoat) and is heading to track down the witness, Nika Boronina (Olga Kurylenko). He finds her in a fancy hotel and after tricking his way in with some flowers he claims are from Belikoff (she's his whore, basically), he takes her somewhere damp and dirty and eventually she reveals that Belikoff used doubles, and that's how he's still alive -- it was a double that 47 killed. For a moment 47 almost kills her, but then he decides not to and tells her that the person he killed to get close to her was going to kill her, and that he was working for Belikoff, which means she's safer with 47. The pair move to get out of the city, with 47 solving the transportation problem by always throwing Nika in the trunk. They head for a train station, but Whittier and the rest are already there. Unbeknownst to them, though, is the presence of another Hitman. 47 notices him though, and after stowing Niki somewhere that isn't a trunk, he steals a uniform from a passing soccer/football team member and makes sure he is seen by the hitter. After a chase through the back paths of the station, the two eventually confront each other and face off. Both are equally skilled, but 47 is just a little quicker and manages to pin the guy down. After asking why they're after him and being told it's a hit on him, he kills the guy just when Niki pops up, having disobeyed 47's order to stay. As if that's not enough, 47 hears someone else. He investigates and comes face to face to face with three more hitmen. They all pull guns on each other, then smile and pull swords instead. Two of them go down pretty quick, but the last one is able to hold out until they're back on the tracks and 47 is choking him to death. That accomplished, the two make for the exit when Whittier and Jenkins show up. After putting Jenkins out (but not down), 47 is about to kill Mike when Nika says, "Don't", which 47 reluctantly agrees to. They finally leave, and next we see our Interpol boys getting patched up and told by Yuri (essentially) "Cooperate with us or get out of our country." Mike opts for option three -- telling Yuri off and planting a bug on him.

A little while later, Nika and 47 are hiding out in the mountains and not enjoying each other's company. While there, 47 is working on finding the next step in the trail. For that, he arranges a meeting with Agent Smith Jamison, a CIA contact of his. Using Nika, he gets the name of a guy connected to Belikoff's arms-dealing brother Udre (Henry Ian Cusick), a Mr. Price. 47 also tells Smith that he'll need a favor from him, but we don't see/hear what the favor is. The two head into Italy and start to warm up each other, with Nika mentioning how when she was a little girl she always wanted to have her own vineyard in France to grow wine in. 47 just nods and soon, the pair are in an Italian-looking city (don't remember where) and he is deciding to be nice to her, taking her shopping for a new dress and even getting them reservations at a rather nice restaurant that our Mr. Price just happens to frequent (why, that's a coincidence!). After some sneaking around (including a shot from above and behind him that could come right from the second game), 47 comes back out and tells Nika that they have dinner reservations at eight. Meanwhile, we check back in with Whittier and Jenkins, who are busy listening in on Yuri. They hear him make a phone call to someone after sending other people out of his office, and from what they can hear they realize he's talking to Belikoff. Before they can get more, two cars drive up saying that they are to escort the two of them to the airport and out of the country, which Mike and Jenkins reluctantly comply with.

That night, 47 and Nika are out dining, and for a wonder Nika is behaving herself. As a waiter passes destined for Price (who 47 has a clear view of), 47 grabs the drink and slips something into it without anyone noticing. He and Nika make some amusing small talk while she works on the wine when suddenly Price is violently sick. He heads to the bathroom and after a couple minutes, 47 follows, telling her to get the check, since they'll be leaving soon. He goes into the bathroom and gets patted down, but they don't find anything. Inside, Price is just coming out and 47 goes into the stall. He pulls out a silenced pistol from the tank and dispatches the guard and knocks Price out with a little needle sedative thing. He yells for help and the other guards come in and get killed. Not long after, he and Nika head back to the hotel room where she drunkenly tries to have sex with him, and he manages to knock her out with the needle thing (though I doubt it was really necessary). A little later, we see him arriving with Price's money at Udre's club/hangout. Things are going well at first, but someone soon whispers in Udre's ear, "That's not Price." The mood shifts and (more) guns are drawn, but 47 manages to take out everyone but Udre, who he says he wants to use to deliver a message to Belikoff. A shaking Udre asks what it is, and 47 raises his pistol and shoots him in the head.

Some time after that, on a train near the Russia/Turkey border. 47 tells Nika that he has to leave her, and gives her instructions to get off at the next stop and stay with the crowd, and that one day he'll find her (not romantically I think, but what the hell). Before he leaves, she finally asks his name, and he tells her that where he was raised they got numbers instead of names and gives her his. They go their separate ways and the next scene is in Russia, where Mike has just arrived back, although under extreme supervision. Meanwhile, we see Yuri meeting with the real Belikoff in a morgue and Belikoff admits that he is tired of hiding behind doubles, although it is worth it just to stay in office and be re-elected. That night, we see Yuri working late when he is suddenly captured by 47, who throws him in a tub surrounded by timers designed to go off at a specific time tomorrow, during Udre's funeral. He tells Yuri to order Belikoff to be killed when the walkie comes online after the timer runs out. If he doesn't three thousand volts will be pumped into the water, frying Yuri. Before he leaves, 47 plops a rubber duck in the tub and warns Yuri that no one will hear him scream for help from where he is. That done, he heads for the funeral.

At the church, we see many troops all over the place, with Mike moving among them. Inside, Belikoff is giving a eulogy for his brother as Yuri watches on TV and screams into the walkie for help. The seconds count down and the walkie finally comes online. Yuri orders his man to take out Belikoff as the timer goes off. The sniper fires into the specially installed bulletproof glass shield. Belikoff is removed before the glass breaks and we see 47 take off after him and Mike go in after 47. A cadre of troops are escorting Belikoff out when one of them opens fire on the others and takes Belikoff to a small chamber nearby. Outside, Mike is being told that they can't find Belikoff or 47 when he suddenly remembers the cross, which a bishop tells him is the key to the archbishops quarters, in the tallest tower. Inside the room, 47 is confronting Belikoff. The two engage in a rather calm discussion considering, and Belikoff offers 47 even more money to just walk away and he will call the whole thing off, clearing 47's name and letting him go back to his life. Instead, 47 just shoots him in the head and calmly waits for Mike and everyone else to show up and arrest him. They load him into a car and are taking him to the airport when suddenly a bunch of Homeland Security and CIA guys pull up, led by Agent Smith. They say that they want to talk to Mike about him being suspected of terrorism, but Mike points out that they're busy transporting a dangerous fugitive to Interpol HQ. Smith calmly asks, "What prisoner?" and we see that 47 has escaped once again. Mike looks around in frustration and Smith puts on his very best "oops" face, and everybody heads off. As they do, Smith glances a this cell phone and sees that he has received a text message. He looks at it and it says simply, "Now we're even." He smiles and closes the phone.

Back in London, a frustrated Mike is arriving home when he finds all the lights out and 47 waiting for him. They talk, and Mike answers the question of a good man killing by saying that he loves his family, and he will do anything to keep them safe, including killing. 47 nods and points to the floor, where one of the dead Hitmen from earlier is lying. 47 tells Mike that the shots were fired from the gun he keeps in the upstairs closet, and that if he keeps his office door closed for the next five hours until the kids leave for school and the wife leaves for work, there's no need for them to find out anything or be exposed to any of this. He turns to leave and then pauses and says, "Oh, and Agent Whittier....I really hope we don't ever see each other again."

Some time after all this, we see Nika picking up her mail and going for a walk in.....somewhere. As she goes through, she notices something from a real estate agency. Curious, she opens it and finds that she is now the owner of a moderate-sized vineyard in France. She looks around hoping to catch a glimpse of 47, but sees no one. A couple rooftops away and fifty feet above her though, we see 47 looking at her through a sniper scope. He looks at the dead body of another hitter lying at his feet, smiles grimly, and says, "I told you to leave her alone. You should have listened."

Golde Compass





Director: Chris Weitz
Writers (WGA): Chris Weitz (screenplay), Philip Pullman (novel)
Release Date: 7 December 2007 (USA) more view trailer
Genre: Adventure / Drama / Family / Fantasy / Thriller
Synopsis:
Lyra Belacqua (Dakota Blue Richards) is an orphan living at Jordan College in the Oxford of an alternate universe. In Lyra's world every person is accompanied by a daemon, a physical representation of their soul in animal form. Because Lyra is still young, her daemon, Pantalaimon (voice: Freddie Highmore), can change his shape to appear as any animal he chooses. Adults' daemons settle in to one shape and don't change.

Lyra overhears an interview between the master of Jordan College (Jack Shepherd) and Fra Pavel (Simon McBurney), a representative of the powerful and sinister religious body called the Magisterium. They're discussing an expedition to the far north planned by Lyra's uncle, Lord Asriel (Daniel Craig); he wants to study a mysterious substance called Dust that seems to enter Lyra's world from parallel universes. Fra Pavel pressures the master to withhold his support for Lord Asriel's expedition. The master refuses, so Fra Pavel poisons a decanter of wine that's been prepared for Lord Asriel. Lyra emerges from her hiding place to stop Lord Asriel from drinking the poisoned wine, but Lord Asriel sends her back to eavesdrop on the meeting that's about to begin. The master and fellows of Jordan College convene to hear about Lord Asriel's proposed expedition and research on Dust, which they agree to fund.

Even before we meet Lyra, boys and girls have been disappearing, snatched off the streets. The children call the kidnappers Gobblers. Lyra and her friend Roger (Ben Walker) promise one another that if either is caught, the other will come to the rescue. That night, while Lyra is at dinner being introduced to Mrs. Coulter (Nicole Kidman), Roger and another friend, Billy Costa (Charlie Rowe), are taken by the Gobblers.

Lyra is taken with her new acquaintance and agrees eagerly when Mrs. Coulter, who is also planning a trip to the far north, proposes that Lyra come along as her assistant. The morning of Lyra's departure, the master gives her a strange golden instrument called an alethiometer. He tells her that it is capable of telling the truth, but he can't tell her much about how it works. He admonishes her to keep the alethiometer to herself.

After some time in Mrs. Coulter's company, Lyra learns that Mrs. Coulter is deeply involved with an arm of the Magisterium called the General Oblation Board (the Gobblers!); that the General Oblation Board is using children to investigate something called intercision; and that Billy Costa and Roger have been taken. Immediately after discovering this, Lyra catches Mrs. Coulter's golden monkey daemon trying to steal the alethiometer. Pan grabs it back and they flee. They're pursued and caught by Gobblers, then rescued by fierce but friendly Gyptians, who have been watching over Lyra at Lord Asriel's request. One of Lyra's rescuers is Ma Costa (Clare Higgins), Billy's mother.

Lyra travels with the Gyptians and becomes acquainted with John Faa (Jim Carter), lord of the Gyptians, and his advisor Farder Coram (Tom Courtenay). She learns how to ask the alethiometer questions and how to interpret its responses. She also meets Serafina Pekkala (Eva Green), queen of the witches, who tells Lyra that she is the subject of a prophecy concerning the fate of the world; that the missing children are being held at Bolvangar in Norroway; and that Lyra will find help in Trollesund, a town on the coast. Meanwhile, Mrs. Coulter has dispatched a pair of mechanical spy flies to locate Lyra. When the spy flies find the Gyptian ship, Farder Coram captures one and seals it up in a tin, explaining that its sting contains a sleeping potion. The other escapes, though it's not clear that it does Mrs. Coulter any good.

When they arrive in Trollesund, Lyra meets the Texan aeronaut Lee Scoresby (Sam Elliot), who offers to help her -- but first he wants to get a friend out of a jam. The friend is Iorek Byrnison (voice: Ian McKellen), one of the great Panserbjørne -- armored ice bears -- of Svalbard. Iorek, exiled from his home after losing a fight, is a virtual prisoner in Trollesund; the townspeople got him drunk and stole his armor, which he cherishes the way humans cherish their daemons. Now, alcoholic and despairing, he works as a mechanic and metalsmith in exchange for whiskey. Consulting the alethiometer, Lyra learns that Iorek Byrnison was heir to the throne of Svalbard until he was betrayed and defeated by Ragnar (voice: Habib Nasib Nader), the current king. She also learns where the armor is hidden and tells Iorek, who promises in return to help her find the missing children. Lee Scoresby and the Gyptians dissuade the soldiers who try to stop the re-armored bear, and Lyra and her allies march into the interior toward Bolvangar.

When they camp for the night, Lyra puzzles over something the alethiometer is telling her and seeks out Iorek Byrnison. She asks him to take her to a valley nearby, where she finds Billy Costa, feeble and miserable because he's been separated from his daemon. This, Lyra realizes, is what intercision means; it's a fate so horrible she and Pan can hardly bear to think about it.

Iorek Byrnison and Lyra take Billy back to the Gyptians' camp, which is immediately set upon by the ferocious Samoyed people who live in that area. They capture Lyra and carry her to Svalbard as an offering to the armored bears. Recalling that Mrs. Coulter told her King Ragnar longs to have a daemon of his own, Lyra asks Pan to hide and introduces herself to Ragnar as Iorek Byrnison's daemon. As she hoped, Ragnar becomes furiously jealous. Lyra tells him that if he can defeat Iorek in single combat, she will become Ragnar's daemon. Ragnar agrees to fight Iorek Byrnison, and Iorek gallops up on cue, intending to rescue Lyra. When Lyra explains what she's arranged, apologetic and frightened because after running all that way Iorek seems in no shape to fight, Iorek surprises her with his enthusiasm. He wants nothing more from life than a chance to fight Ragnar, and dubs her Lyra Silvertongue for her skillful manipulation of the bear king.

Iorek fights Ragnar and kills him by feigning an injury, then hitting him so hard that his jaw comes off. This victory wins back Iorek Byrnison's rightful place as king of the ice bears, but he leaves his kingdom to complete his obligation to Lyra. He takes her most of the way to the experimental station at Bolvangar where the children are being held, but has to leave her and go for help when the bridge over a crevasse breaks, leaving Iorek on the wrong side.

Inside the experimental station, Lyra asks Roger to get the others ready to escape. He shows her to a room where she can be alone with the alethiometer, but she has to hide under the table almost immediately because the experimental station staff and Mrs. Coulter come in to confer about their work. After Mrs. Coulter leaves, Lyra's foot slips, giving her away. She's captured by the staff and she and Pan are put into the intercision device, the machine used to separate children from their daemons. The separation is almost complete when Mrs. Coulter, looking terrified, runs in and stops the procedure.

Lyra and Pan wake up with their bond intact, and a distraught Mrs. Coulter assures Lyra that she's safe and she'll never be hurt. Lyra, shrinking from Mrs. Coulter, asks why they're separating children from their daemons. Mrs. Coulter explains that Dust (which she seems to equate with original sin) came into the world long ago when people first disobeyed the Authority (God). While children are immune from Dust, it contaminates adults through their daemons. The goal of the intercision research is to prevent people from ever being affected by Dust. (This explanation is a slightly more palatable version of the one given in an earlier scene, in which high officials of the Magisterium, disturbed about Jordan College's rebellious support of Lord Asriel, look forward to a future when intercision will mold a population that never questions the Magisterium's authority.) Mrs. Coulter says that intercision doesn't hurt -- "it's just a little cut."

If intercision is such a good thing, Lyra counters, why did Mrs. Coulter stop the lab staff from doing it to Lyra? Mrs. Coulter admits that the procedure isn't perfect yet. When she mentions taking Lyra home, Lyra says venomously that her home is Jordan College. Mrs. Coulter reveals that she is Lyra's mother -- a relationship Lyra rejects -- and that Lord Asriel is her father. Lyra pretends to cooperate when Mrs. Coulter asks for the alethiometer, but gives her instead the tin holding the spy fly. The fly's sting knocks out Mrs Coulter and her daemon. Lyra escapes and leads the children out into the snow, pausing only to sabotage the intercision device, which explodes in a very satisfactory manner.

Outside the experimental station the children confront the guards, who attack them. Iorek Byrnison intervenes, but is nearly overcome before the arrival, at dramatic intervals, of Lee Scoresby, the witches led by Serafina Pekkala, and the Gyptians. There's a ferocious melee; whenever someone is killed, their daemon disintegrates in a swirl of Dust. Lyra's friends win the battle.

Lyra sets off with Iorek Byrnison and Lee Scoresby to find Lord Asriel, who has been captured by the Samoyed people. Roger insists on coming along. Meanwhile Mrs. Coulter, having learned that Lord Asriel has bribed his captors and set up a laboratory to continue his research on Dust, sets off to stop him. In the final scene, Lyra and Roger curl up with Iorek Byrnison in the back of Mr. Scoresby's flying machine, heading north.

I AM LEGEND





This movie is sure is scares you without showing disgusting monsters or flesh-eating scene, but with the actor's act. Will Smith sure is really good at acting, his acting told us everything about the circumstances without have to listen to lots of chit chat or something.

I love this movie, I love his act too. Great Movie I say.

Dragon Wars





Film ini punya menggunakan teknik animasi yang cukup canggih, yang sebenarnya sih bisa menandingi Special Effeck nya Lord Of The Rings, tapi sayang, animasi yang bagus tidak diiringi dengan kemampuan acting aktor-aktornya.

Kalau dilihat dari segi ceritanya, seharusnya bisa mencekam seperti LOTR, tapi kok berasa hambar ya? Padahal para monster tiba-tiba menyerang kota, tapi kok gak berkesan menakutkan ya?

Myth nya agak aneh, soalnya biasanya naga itu kan dari Jepang atau China, tapi ini dari korea, sementara tulisan korea nya kok gak ada ya? Gaya orang koreanya juga lebih mirip model harajuku nanggung.
