The Hangover -movie is released on June 2009. It is produced by Todd Phillips and Daniel Goldberg. The movie is comedy movie. The main characters are Phil (Bradley Cooper), Stu (Ed Helms), Alan (Zach Galifianakis) and Doug (Justin Bartha).

The movie is telling about four friends who organized the bachelor party in Las Vegas to one of their friend. It is enough that in the group is one a little bit weirdo person who buy accidentally a knockout drops and no one could not remember anything about what happened in the bachelor party. In the next morning when they woke up and saw that the fiancé was lost and they did not have any idea where he could be, they started to recall what they remember of last night. The night has been a lot of different than they could even remember. They found a baby from the closet, real tiger was in hotels bathroom, stolen police car and a huge win from poker game. Even one of them was get married.

I think that the best character was Zach Galifianakis who acted Alan. He was the “stupid one” who caused everything. His whole essence is perfect for the role. His appearances were awesome and they way how he even speaks make me laugh every time. He has so much talent to act the funny person in movies.

The best part of movie was definitely when Alan was going to bathroom in the morning and he saw that tiger was laying on the floor. The boys tried to get the tiger out of the bathroom and give it back to Mike Tyson, who own it.

I would recommend the film to people who like watch comedy movies and laugh a lot and often.
The movie will always cheer up if you are mad or just want to relax and laugh a lot.

The name of the movie: Napapiirin sankarit

Director: Thomas ” Dome” Karukoski

Movie`s main character is Janne. Janne has got a common-law wife called Inari. He loves Inari. Janne is an unemployed and that is why he has no money. Janne has got a two friends with whom he spends a lot of time. Kapu is an unembloyed bachelor, who is from time to time very depressed. Räihänen is also unembloyed bachelor, but he is also very simple minded. Janne, Kapu and Räihänen are friends and together they have always very funny and they take care of each other in every situation. They also drink often. The characters seem real and they grow and develop during the movie. They understand what friendship and honesty means.

The story begins when Inari is giving money to Janne and asks him to buy a digibox. The sum of money goes on drinking for example. Inari says that she should leave Janne if she didn`t get a digibox by tomorrow morning. Janne and his friends must go to Rovaniemi to buy a digibox because there is Inari`s father`s electronics shop. They have only a one big problem. They don`t have money. They have to earn it somehow. They wash cars windscreens and they butcher one reindeer for example. They have many difficulties.

The setting of this movie is Northern Finland. The friends spend their time in the car, in the gas statioin etc. The landscape is very beautiful in Rovaniemi for example. The friends trip takes only a one day. The story begins Janne´s home and ends there too, when Janne gives the digibox to Inari in a special way. On the trip Janne butchered the reindeer to the Russians, but they didn`t pay it to Janne. Finally The Russians bring the digibox to Janne by helicopter.

The narrator in the story is Kapu and the main theme of this novel is friendship and love. Movie`s message is that you can`t leave your frinds when she or he is in trouble.

The best part in the story is the event when Janne, Kapu and Räihänen are running outdoors and they are dressing up car`s seats jackets. The whole movie is very entertaining and funny. For that reason I recommend it to everybody.

I write this film-review from the movie savages. The movie is released on July 2012.

Savages is an American crime thriller film. It was directed by Oliver stone. The movie is based on the novel of the same name by Don Winslow. Leading actors are Taylor Kitsch (Chon), Blake Lively (Ophelia),Aaron Taylor-Johnson(Ben) and Salma Hayek(Elena).

In the movie characters have many problems. Two men who sell marijuana to medical use loves same person, Ophelia. A Mexican drug-cartel kidnaps Ophelia because Chon and Ben didn`t want to participate in drug selling operations. The reason why the cartel wanted to co-operate with Ben and Chon was that their marijuana was the best in the world.  The boys would do anything to save Ophelia from the cartel. Very violent criminal “Lado” who is working under the drug-cartel boss Elena, tries to hurt Ophelia but Elena starts pitying her and she gives Ophelia better place to sleep and eat.

The movie was filmed Laguna Beach, California. Ben and Chon differs much from each other. Ben is calm and Chon is wild soldier who has been peacekeeper in Afghanistan. Ophelia is beautiful and gentle. Elena is sad because her daughter doesn`t want keep in touch with her. Elena`s husband was killed so Elena had to take the lead at the cartel, which her daughter is mad at her for and that is why she doesn`t keep in touch.

When I saw this movie for the first time, I was really surprised from all the violence. But the same time movie was a beautiful love story. Salma and Blake`s characters were extremely good and they played their role perfectly.

My favorite part at the movie was absolutely lop off, were Elena, Lado, Chon and Ben meets face to face and agree switch between Elena`s daughter and Ophelia. Lop off was done suspenseful and characters act very well.

The movie is definitely one of my favorite, but maybe some most violent scenes would cut off. Story tells bluntly nowday`s drug- business but also it`s instructive story about love and friendship. Though the movie is violent it also include humor and fun scenes, which is always good. It`s difficult to make same scene fun and violent but in this movie it`s successfully passing well.

The atmosphere was all the time exciting and movie is easy to watch, you stay about story line easily. I promise that this movie is a good choice to people who likes that the movie which include  action, humor and drama.
