City Of Ember

Finally a bit more fantasy, felt a bit starved at cinema for fantasy, which it quite strange as it's the most popular movie genre!

For all you fantasy fans out there: I give you "City Of Ember".

Starring Saoirse Ronnan, Tim Robbins, and Bill Murray.

What is the City of Ember? It is a city built underground to keep out the darkness.

Mission: To find if there is life outside the City...

To Accomplish the mission we will be drawn into a trilling adventure from an apocalyptic world!

You may think that this is mearly a child's movie but I assure you that the tension is so, that it will grasp anyone's attention throughout the movie!

It's not a complicated story, wonderful graphics, and all so beautifully told, just the perfect movie to relax too, and satisfy the movie addiction you probably caught with Lord of the Rings and Spiderman!

This can easily be the best movie of this Fall!

Enjoy!

Movie Rating: 9/10

Dante 01

"If there's anything we learn from fairy-tales, it's not that Dragons exist - But that they can be beaten!"

Absolutely superb!

Available on DVD across Europe, sorry rest of the world only imports for you.

From Marc Caro (director of Delicatessen and City of Lost Children) this is a sci-fi fantasy movie that just cannot be missed.

Language: French (with english subtitles)

Caro tells us of a hellish space ship, obitting a planet like hell, where human experimentation is being carried out. It is a fight for freedom. It is a fight to the bitter end. That sets the scene.

Caro tells the story in a classic fantastical way, drawing you in with a beautiful narrative in the opening.

A man with extraordinary powers finds himself on a spaceship where human experimentation is being carried out. The prisoners must fight for their freedom, leaving all their differences behind. But what is stopping them?

Starring Dominique Pinon (in many great wierd French movies)

Movie rating: 9.5/10
