The Royal Tenenbaums was made in 2002, and it is about a family who over time drifted apart. But now the father who left wants to get more involved with his children who are now all grown up. The only way he can get into their lives again is to lie and say he is dying. Eventually they find out that he is lying. During all this his children are now in there thirties and all their lives where successful until they all took a wrong turn, which ends up with one of them trying to commit suicide. I don’t think I was listening to it correctly at the start because I thought these two people where brother and sister, and they ended up kissing, Which confused and sickened me a little bit, until I found out that the girl was adopted, which made it better, but still was a bit weird. Eventually the father puts everything right, but sadly he dies later that year.
There are quite a few very famous people in it. For a starter is has Bill Murray who was in Ghostbusters, furthermore there is Ben Stiller and Owen Wilson, who have done quite a lot of movies together, Like Starkey and Hutch and Night at the Museum, there were a few more characters who I recognised but when I saw their name had no idea who they were.
The movie is split up like a book. Ever so often there is a screen with a chapter heading, and a few sentences from the chapter of the book, which this movie is based on. I found it quite slow to start off with, on the back of the dvd it claims that it is hilarious, but as far as I can see, there is no comic value in this movie whatsoever. It was just confusing who is who. The only bit I found a little funny was when Ben Stiller pushed a priest down some stairs. Even though the storyline was quite good, in some places is was quite dull.

If there’s something strange… in the neighbourhood who you gunna call? Ghostbusters!
Ghostbusters was released in 1984, the basic plot is that three scientists have been researching how to capture and store ghosts, when they’re funding for it by their university was pulled. After a successful test of their inventions they decide to go in into business catching and storing ghosts which are causing havoc around New York, after a slow start, they become local hero’s, and when a skyscraper becomes the main point of activity for spirits and ghosts, The Ghostbusters are called in to remove them and there ancient God Gozer.
I first watched this film when I was very young, and I didn’t understand the film one bit, I only laughed at the big marshmallow man and didn’t get any of the jokes, but my mum bought me them for my birthday last year because recently I wanted to watch them again, and I found them really funny. Even though it was made over 20 years ago, the special effects for the film is quite good, I admit its no star wars, but they are very good for the era when it was made.
The main character was Dr. Peter Venkmen, Played by Bill Murray, if it wasn’t for this film, I would have no idea who he was, I read some of the film names he has been in before Ghostbusters, and I have never heard of any of them, and I was surprised to see that he was the Voice of Garfield in 2004, and the second one in 2006.
I believe that this film is one of the all time greats, with a really catchy theme tune. It has a lot of 1 liner’s, which makes the film funny. I personally think that the giant marshmallow man is legendary because you would not expect it as a beast, you would imagine a massive dinosaur or something of that kind. All the ghosts that Goza could of done, they take the marshmallow man from one of the Ghostbusters minds to crate as a monster. It ends up being goo.
I think that Ghostbusters 2 was a disappointment, I got the box set and I thought that Ghostbusters 2 would be just as good, but I was let down. Rumours on the internet say that there is going to be a Ghostbusters video game released next year, and that there’s rumours of a third film!
