Movie Front

Not many movies for the past 2 weeks.. Only watched 3 to be specific
Top of the list new release "Prince Caspian" O My God the book was never m favorite but what have they made, It was a good story when I read the book but the movie was totally different. In their quest to modify the characters they have changed them completely. I am disappointed to say the least Peter became selfish and Susan flirting Caspian too much, the movie is at times dragging. Having said that the best part of the movie is Graphics, which are really eye catching with some great sequences like the guard of honor of high kings and queens by centaurs, and action sequences were as usual great. So my rating for the movie 7/10. They should make a movie on The Horse and his Boy.

Also watched 2 sci-fi movies
X Files is based on my room mates favorite TV Series by the same name with same characters in lead role. The plot is interesting but the climax a bit over done, with all the aliens and stuff. and then there is the MIB type agency keeping it all secret. So bottom line a typical "SAVE THE WORLD" from aliens movie with good action and decent plot. Rating (6/10)

Also watched Aeon Flux, Charlize Theron is great in the lead role of a deadly assassin in the futuristic society where everything has been destroyed by some deadly virus. What binds the whole movie together is the slow unfolding story with lot of turns. The graphics are good and the overall set up resembles Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within. Rating (6/10)
