Push

This Dakota Fanning starrer is an interesting sci-fi action thriller based on the writers’ assumptions that there are people working for the government that can see the future, as in psychics. Like how else would somebody know that some person is smuggling drugs at this place on that date? The characters in this movie have paranormal abilities, like telekinesis, psychic abilities, and the even the ability to change the future. The scariest ones are the Bleeders. They have the ability to emit high-pitched sounds that cause anybody who can hear to burst blood vessels and eventually die.

The Day After Tomorrow

Posted in Adventure,Science Fiction by niceheart on August 22, 2006

 The Day After Tomorrow shows us to the possible effects of global warming.  Drastic changes in temperature, tornadoes that flatten L.A., a tidal wave that engulfs New York, abrupt coldness in the Northern Hemisphere where everything turned solid and nobody could survive outside.  You’d freeze to death. 

Climatologist Jack Hall (Dennis Quaid) tried to warn the president who wouldn’t listen to him.  And inspite of the dangers waiting for him, Jack set out to get his teen-age son, Sam (Jake Gyllenhaal), who was stuck in a Public Library in New York, together with a few friends and survivors.  Jack warned him to stay inside.  And he followed his father’s instructions.  

Cool spectacular effects.
