Finished "Die Hard 5" aka "A Good Day to Die Hard" (2013) this is one hell of an utterly piece of dull action packed film, Bruce is getting a little old, not only do you spot it in several close-ups but the most explicit evidence is that we don't see Bruce in any way in action, no fighting scenes, no running around, no jumping of buildings, nope Bruce i guess his physical-condition is gone...
Of the couple of reviews i read people state that they left out his famous, ... and i quote...
"You'll never hear our hero swear, nor complete his Yippee-Ki-Yays, because for the sake of a lower rating, he got unceremoniously muted. And that's utter disrespect both to the character, and the fans. "
Wellin my version (the extended) he said it towards the end of the movie quite clear and out-loud, "Yippee-Ki-Yay Mother F....r"! So i guess that depends the version you're watching, nevertheless the short or the long edit, this movie is a dull repetitive-action packed piece of s**t, i hope it will die quick so we're saved on a 6th possible installment, fingers crossed and hope not, waste of time, energy and tons of money!

Baby Shower (2011) - 4 former classmates having a reunion to celebrate the 1st-born of one of them.
-As a big fan of Spanish movies, in this case a South-American Spanish movie (Chile), and one of my very first Spanish letdowns! Actors are struggling with the story and are constant in search to develop their character, probably the fault of Pablo Illanes who didn't only directed the movie but also responsible at the same time for the scenario. Wonder why things turned out pretty bad with a straightforward storyline with less till no sub-plots, so... things weren't that difficult. The movie is at moments pretty cruel, harsh and brutal and on the other hand, gentle and filled with happiness. These characterizations combined, develop a barbaric piece of cinema, although most of its effect goes down the drain because of its wrong soundtrack (Dance-music?), pretty poor worked out story-line, messy directing and actors in search of their own character. Fill it up with a lot of unanswered questions and there you are, a movie that didn't really satisfied your needs the moment the end-credits roll-up. Couldn't help it but while watching it felt like a pretty poor but violent distill of Rosemary's Baby (1968). Nope not really a recommendation of mine though as each time in my case, make up your own mind, and at the same time, don't tell me I didn't warn you!
