kia pagi?

Well, there’s definitely no shortage of photos of the next-generation Kia Picanto, what with plenty available of the Korean version of the car, which is called the Morning.

Besides the plethora of Morning pix, the domestic Kia website lists some basic details about the upcoming car for the home market – the Kappa 1.0 litre petrol model, which offers 82 hp at 6,400 rpm and 94 Nm at 3,500 rpm, will be available with a choice of four-speed auto or five-speed manual transmissions, with what looks like five different trim levels to pick from.

At the entry level, the car comes with a completely gray coloured interior and wears 13-inch steel wheels and 155/70 series tyres, and pretty much everything is basic – the side mirrors are of the manual adjustment variety, though the car comes replete with driver/passenger as well as side and curtain airbags.

Somewhere in between gets you black-coloured trim for the interior, as well as black faux leather seats, faux leather door trim and a leather steering wheel, while at the top end of things (the Special Deluxe version, no less), wheel size goes up to 15-inches, with 175/50 series rubbers adorning the Black Luxury Wheels. At this level, keyless ignition, Bluetooth and steering wheel audio controls are standard fitment.

Until Geneva, when it makes its official debut, have a wonderful Morning viewing the photos after the jump.

Update: Reader Deep wrote in to say that the quoted output above should be 69 hp, which should be the case given the preliminary – if sketchy – figures coming off Kia, but according to the specs listed on the Korean Kia website, the Morning’s 1.0 litre dual CVVT Kappa pot is placed to offer 82 hp. A case of wrong numbers, or higher specification output for the domestic market? All rather murky with this one.

Sinopsis:

Mengisahkan WADI (36) dengan isterinya KU KHALIRA (32) yang sudah 14 tahun mendirikan rumahtangga. Mereka dikurniakan seorang saja anak perempuan kini berusia 13 tahun bernama NURAIZA. Hidup mereka serba moden. Cara hidup mereka agak terbuka dan bebas. NURAIZA pula anak yang ceria, bijak, walaupun anak tunggal tetapi dia nampak matang dalam dunianya. Disebabkan ibu dan ayahnya hidup lebih mengutamakan duniawi, maka landas agama mereka agak kurang. NURAIZA diasuh oleh ibu saudara KU KHALIRA yang tinggal bersama mereka yang dipanggil UMI SIAH(45) oleh NURAIZA. UMI SIAH seorang yang serius tetapi nampak tenang. Seakan ada rahsia disimpan sendiri-sendiri. UMI SIAH sangat menjaga NURAIZA kerana dia tahu keistimewaan yang NURAIDA ada. KU KHALIRA sentiasa menjadi bualan kegemaran para wanita yang mengenalinya kerana begitu pandai menjaga rumahtangga. KU KHALIRA dan WADI selalu melakukan yang rasional dalam apa jua hal, tidak mempercayai hal mistik, tidak membimbing keluarga ke arah agama.

Kisah bermula semasa minggu orientasi NURAIZA yang berjaya masuk ke asrama penuh. Ia menjadi kebanggaan buat WADI tetapi ada sedikit kebimbangan buat KU KHALIRA yang katanya ia tidak pernah berpisah dengan anak tunggalnya itu. Ada gangguan di asrama dan sasarannya ialah NURAIZA. Selama ini NURAIZA tidak pernah melalui pengalaman menyeramkan itu, maka datang trauma dalam dirinya. Dia tidak pernah diajar dengan doa atau ayat melindungi dirinya maka NURAIZA jadi tidak menentu dan gangguan tetap berterusan bukan saja kepada dia tetapi juga kawan-kawan yang ada dekat dengannya. Di sana juga dia mengenali rakan sebilik dan sekelasnya, HASNI dan SYARIFAH. Dia juga mengenali seterunya yang sentiasa kurang senang dengannya iaitu ERNA dan NADIA yang tua dua tahun daripadanya tetapi bilik mereka berhampiran. NURAIZA belajar mendekatkan diri dengan pendidikan Islam bersama HASNI dan SYARIFAH. Gangguan tetap ada. Datang pula kenakalan ERNA dan NADIA yang mahu mengenakan NURIZA, lalu mereka main seru roh guna papan ouiji, maka NURAIZA mula nampak seorang budak perempuan yang sebaya dengannya berlegar sekitar asrama.

Yang menakutkannya, budak itu sentiasa tunduk, tidak pernah nampak wajahnya dengan jelas tetapi setiap kali dia berjalan, dia akan seret kaki dan ada darah sedikit-sedikit menitik ke lantai dari tangan kanan dan kirinya. NURAIZA saja yang nampak dan ia semakin menakutkan NURAIZA sehingga membuatkan NURAIZA histeria. Bagi ERNA pula itu semua lakonan dan tipu helah NURAIZA untuk tarik perhatian. Sehinggalah ERNA dan NADIA sendiri diganggu tetapi dengan makhluk halus yang lebih menakutkan. WADI dan KU KHALIRA dimaklumkan, mereka datang dan bawa NURAIZA pulang untuk merawatnya. UMI SIAH terlalu menjaga keselamatan NURAIZA maka tegas tidak benarkan NURAIZA ke asrama semula tetapi WADI tidak setuju. KU KHALIRA sedih dan bimbang melihatkan anaknya sudah tidak ceria seperti dahulu. NURAIZA beritahu apa yang dia nampak tetapi WADI tidak percaya. Apabila NURAIZA sudah sembuh, dia pulang semula ke asrama dan gangguan tetap datang setiap malam dan di asrama tidak aman lagi sejak NURAIZA ada di sana.

Apabila NURAIZA tidak ada semula di rumah, rumah WADI tidak sama seperti dulu, kesuraman terasa, ada gangguan yang NURAIZA lalu, juga menganggu penghuni rumah WADI. KU KHALIRA mengesyaki UMI SIAH ada muslihat lain dan gangguan yang datang pada anaknya disebabkan niat jahat UMI SIAH, kerana apabila dia beritahu suaminya, keturunan ibu saudara dan arwah ibunya iaitu RAJA SARAH pernah menggunakan pendamping menjaga keluarga tetapi dia tidak pernah suka dan tidak percaya semua itu. WADI mula mengesyaki juga UMI SIAH sehingga ada insiden yang berlaku buatkan WADI percaya UMI SIAH mahu menganiaya keluarganya lalu dia menghalau UMI SIAH dari rumah. UMI SIAH cuba terangkan keadaan sebenar tetapi WADI tidak mahu dengar dan tidak mahu tahu. Kemudian datang tetamu baru di rumah mereka. USTAZ BAKRI(36) ialah sahabat lama WADI sejak dibangku sekolah. Dia baru balik dari kerjanya di Mesir. USTAZ BAKRI terasa unsur negatif itu di rumah WADI dan meminta WADI banyakkan solat di dalam rumah dan amalan agama semula yang sudah jauh ditinggalkannya. Apabila WADI yang sering diganggu itu, mula cuba berjinak mengenal diri kembali dalam agama Islam, amukan berlaku dan dia mula nampak apa yang selama ini dia tidak pernah nampak. Nantikan kesudahannya dalam DAMPING MALAM…

Director Matt Reeves, who once brought us Cloverfield, has been working Let Me In, an upcoming fantasy thriller movie starring Kodi Smit-McPhee, Chloe Moretz, and Richard Jenkins. The film is actually a remake of Let the Right One In based on the novel of the same name by John Ajvide Lindqvist. Matt Reeves' Let Me In movie will be released on October 1, 2010.

Here's a first official teaser poster of Let Me In:
(Click on the poster to enlarge it.)
Plot:
"A bullied young boy befriends a young female vampire who lives in secrecy with her guardian."

Director Matt Reeves talks about his take on John Ajvide Lindqvist's novel:

"It's very much an Americanization of the tale that John Ajvide Lindqvist tells. The film touched me. And I read the book, which he also wrote, and it moved me too. It reminded me so much of my own childhood in certain ways. It's so much about that period of preadolescence, that feeling of being a child and of being bullied, the difficulties of growing up. It's such a beautiful coming-of-age story, in addition to being such a terrific genre story. One of the things I really wanted to do was find my own way into the story while still being very, very reverent to the beautiful film and to the wonderful story that they created. And so the story in many ways follows the same trajectory. I really wanted to put you, even more so, into the point of view of the boy and understand his childhood as vividly as it comes across in the book."
Director Matt Reeves

Kodi Smit-McPhee and Chloe Moretz two rising stars in Hollywood. They're both damn talented and it's with impatience that I wait to see their performance in the movie Let Me In. And with Director Matt Reeves helming the project, I'm quite confident it's gonna be worth the wait!

Plot

Tim Conrad (Paul Rudd) is a mid-level financial executive, who acquires a negotiation over special novelty lamps with wealthy Swiss businessman Martin Mueller (David Walliams). Impressed by Tim's ingenuity, his boss Lance Fender (Bruce Greenwood) invites him to a "dinner for winners" in which he must find and bring an eccentric person with a special talent; the winner earns a trophy and the executive that brought him or her gets glory. He soon learns it is more of a "dinner for idiots," and the partygoers will be mocked mercilessly. Meanwhile, Tim's girlfriend Julie (Stephanie Szostak) lands a curator deal for eccentric artist Kieran Vollard (Jemaine Clement), and Tim unsuccessfully proposes to her, as he has done several times before. After learning of the cruel nature of the dinner party, Julie becomes upset and asks him not to attend and he agrees.

The next day, Tim accidentally hits IRS employee Barry Speck (Steve Carell) with his car when Barry tries to retrieve a dead mouse in the road. Witnessing Barry's bizarre behavior (he taxidermies mice and arranges them into elaborate dioramas), Tim realizes he is the perfect loser for the dinner. That night, Barry shows up at Tim's apartment unannounced and accidentally invites over Darla (Lucy Punch), who had a one-night stand with Tim years ago and has been stalking him. Barry decides to guard Tim's apartment from Darla to make up for inviting her. When Julie arrives at his apartment, Barry mistakes her for Darla and sends her away, giving Julie the mistaken impression that Tim is cheating on her. Barry decides to call Vollard and finds the number saved in the phone. While talking to him, he and Tim think they hear Julie in the background and head to Vollard's apartment. Barry tosses Tim's keys through Vollard's apartment window and must break in, only to find out she isn't there and head back home.

Afterward, Barry opens the door to find Darla waiting outside. Julie calls and asks Tim if he's having an affair and Darla steals the phone and stuffs it down her pants. While Tim hides in his bedroom, Darla and Barry get into a bar-styled fight, scaring Darla away. Julie accidentally left her phone at Tim's apartment and a voice message from Vollard reveals to Tim and Barry that Julie is leaving for his ranch. Barry works for the IRS and offers to take Tim to work to find Vollard's ranch address, where they meet up with Barry's boss and rival, Therman Murch (Zach Galifianakis) (who stole Barry's wife), who displays his "mind control" power over Barry. Tim leaves the next day for his brunch with the Muellers but Barry crashes, with Darla pretending to be Julie, when he gets a call from Tim's assistant telling him to bring a still missing Julie. Tim is pushed into asking Darla to marry him by Barry and Julie walks in during. Tim and Barry chase Julie down to Vollard's ranch, where Tim accidentally offends Barry (which further hurts his and Julie's relationship).

To Tim's surprise, he finds Barry already at Fender's dinner party. Barry is a hit with the group and is a shoo-in for the trophy, but unexpectedly, Barry's boss arrives. Tim then tells Barry everything and, after some encouragement, gets Barry to win, before causing his boss and fellow executives to reveal the truth. A guest reacts badly to the news and inadvertently causes chaos in the process, with Mueller losing a finger. A fire breaks out, while a bird brought by one of the guests flies away with Mueller's finger. Tim is fired, as is Julie after Barry makes Vollard realize it would be a problem to have her continue working for him. In the end, Tim marries Julie, Barry enters into a relationship with Darla, does some artwork with Vollard, and hosts a monthly "breakfast for champions" for all of the losers. Therman writes a new book in the mental hospital and Tim gets a new museum started in Switzerland for Mueller. After the closing credits, it is revealed Fender's company has gone under and Forbes Magazine has named him "Wall Street's Biggest Loser."

Plot

A woman, "Charming Jones" (Ann-Margret) is being escorted to town by a cowboy, "Handsome Stranger" (Schwarzenegger) (as they ride together, they both state that they have been named after their respective fathers). Charming is traveling to the town to claim money left by her father, Parody Jones (Martin). But the man who had to hand over the money to Charming, rich Avery Simpson (Elam), wants the money back. He hires an old cowboy, "Cactus Jack" (Douglas) to rob them after they leave town. However Jack is not very good at robbery.

In essence, the trip back with the money is a live-action remake of a Looney Tunes cartoon, particularly the Road-Runner cartoons, with Jack playing the part of Wile E. Coyote, including cartoon gravity and painted tunnel entrances. The plot has a surprise ending, when Charming chooses Cactus Jack to be her romantic interest, over Handsome Stranger (and his naive and staunchly pure-hearted intentions towards her).

Sinopsis:

Sebuah filem yang menyentuh isu kerosakkan akhlak di kalangan remaja dan mengupas ragam kehidupan gadis-gadis zaman sekarang yang bebas dewasa tanpa bimbingan ibubapa yang terlalu sibuk mencari wang bagi menyara kehidupan. Aleesya, Sofea dan Hani merupakan tiga rakan rapat yang mempunyai latarbelakang keluarga yang berbeza. Masing-masing juga mempunyai pandangan berbeza tentang Islam, berdasarkan cara mereka dibesarkan oleh ibubapa masing-masing. Aleesya mempunyai didikan agama yang asas – boleh mengaji dan tahu sembahyang.

Namun, membesar dalam persekitaran yang serba moden dan sosial menyebabkan beliau leka pada tuntutan agama. Sofea pula dibesarkan tanpa didikan agama, Sofea dibesarkan dalam suasana serba kebaratan, Sofea tidak tahu solat dan tak tahu mengaji. Hidupnya penuh dosa dan noda sehingga dia kurang tenang walaupun mempunyai segalagalanya. Hani pula membesar dalam keluarga yang susah. Beliau kurang didikan agama lantaran ibubapa yang terlalu sibuk mencari sesuap nasi untuk mereka sekeluarga. Hani senantiasa menyalahkan ibubapanya dan adakala salahkan Tuhan kerana tidak mengubah nasib beliau sekeluarga. Untuk hidup senang, beliau mengambil jalan mudah, menjadi pengedar dadah secara kecil-kecilan dan menjerumus dalam hidup penuh noda, dunia yang mana semuanya ‘halal’.

Hani mendapat bekalan dadah daripada teman lelakinya, Zachery, yang merupakan ketua pengedar dadah di kawasan flat tempat tinggalnya. Perbezaan pandangan mereka tidak menghalang persahabatan mereka bertiga sehingga kemunculan Firdaus, sepupu Aleesya yang warak. Firdaus pentingkan hukum Tuhan dan beliau sedar, sebagai seorang Islam yang berpendidikan, adalah menjadi tanggungjawabnya untuk mendidik saudara Islam yang terlencong. Firdaus yang berasal dari kampung, datang ke Kuala Lumpur untuk mengikuti kursus keusahawanan, dan menumpang di rumah bapa saudaranya yang juga bapa kepada Aleesya. Menyedari Aleesya hilang arah, Firdaus sering menegur tindak tanduk Aleesya, menyebabkan Aleesya amat membenci Firdaus kerana terlalu ‘menjaga tepi kainnya’.

Namun, kehadiran Firdaus mulai mengubah diri Sofea yang mencari ketenangan. Sofea yang sudah puas hidup tanpa agama, menemui ketenangan apabila berkawan dengan Firdaus. Menerusi Firdaus, Sofea belajar tentang Islam dan mulai menyintai agama yang selama ini, sekadar status di kad pengenalannya. Kemesraan antara Firdaus dan Sofea, menyebabkan Sofea mula renggang dari Aleesya dan Hani. Sofea yang mahu Aleesya berubah mulai dimusuhi Aleesya yang menyangka Sofea berlakon untuk meniduri Firdaus. Apabila Sofea mengikut Firdaus ke kampung, bagi mendalami Islam tanpa gangguan, Aleesya semakin liar dan mula hilang pertimbangan sehingga sanggup mengikut Hani ke dalam dunia ‘pil khayal dan parti seks bebas’. Semasa mengikuti sebuah parti seks yang dianjurkan oleh Zachery, Aleesya ‘hilang dara’, menyebabkan beliau tersedar dari kebodohannya.

Hani yang sudah lama ‘hilang dara’ cuba tenangkan Aleesya dan memberitahunya, pada zaman sekarang, dara tidak penting. Menyedari beliau bukan dara lagi, Aleesya yang hilang maruah, mengambil keputusan untuk bertaubat dan mendekatkan diri dengan Allah. Beliau meminta bantuan Firdaus untuk mendidiknya juga menyelamatkan maruahnya dengan cara menikahinya. Aleesya ditemani Hani, pergi ke kampung Firdaus. Permintaan Aleesya menyebabkan Firdaus berada dalam dilemma, kerana Firdaus yang sudah tertarik pada Sofea, berjanji mahu mengahwini Sofea. Sofea pula memberitahu Firdaus bahawa walaupun dia hidup tanpa agama, dia masih dara kerana dia berpegang pada pegangan bahawa, ‘mahkotanya’ hanya untuk seorang lelaki yang boleh mendidiknya menjadi isteri yang baik.



tidak boleh dihentikan


In a rail yard within the northern Pennsylvania town of Fuller, a pair of hostlers working for the Allegheny and West Virginia Railroad (AWVR) are ordered to move a freight train off its current track to make way for an excursion train carrying schoolchildren. One of the hostlers, Dewey (Ethan Suplee), chooses not to connect the locomotive's air hose to save time; he does this knowing that the train's air brakes will only apply on the lead locomotive in this configuration, but decides to connect the hoses after parking the train on another track. Dewey sets the locomotive's throttle at 100% in order to enable the train's dynamic brakes, but sees that an approaching switch is not set to the right track. Dewey jumps down to line the switch properly, while the dynamic brake lever in the cab, unattended, falls of its own accord. The train picks up speed, and Dewey is unsuccessful in his attempts to reboard. It leaves the yard and enters the main line unmanned.

Meanwhile, Will Colson (Chris Pine), a newly-hired conductor for AWVR, is partnered with veteran engineer Frank Barnes (Denzel Washington). Barnes and Colson meet by their locomotive for the day in the southern Pennsylvania city of Stanton, where Barnes, a 28-year employee, finds out that Colson, who will be in charge of the train, is only four months out of training. He reminds Colson that if there's anything he doesn't know, he should just ask. They take the locomotive out to where they will attach their train for the day, where, after Colson makes the mistake of picking up too many cars, they leave Stanton bound for a zinc plant.

In Fuller, the hostlers let yardmaster Connie Hooper (Rosario Dawson) know that that they have a runaway train headed into opposing traffic on the main line. Assuming the dead man's switch will trigger the brakes and turn the train into a "coaster" that stops a few miles from the yard, she tells them to catch up with a speeder and stop it. She also calls Ned (Lew Temple), a welder for the railroad, and tells him to set a switch. When he arrives at the switch, after waiting some minutes, the hostlers arrive, and it becomes clear that the train has passed already, moving faster than expected due to being under power. The hostlers proceed to catch up with the train, but do not succeed in boarding it.

Connie and the dispatchers work to get every train on the main line onto sidings. Oscar Galvin (Kevin Dunn), Connie's superior, calls her and asks her what's happening and what she's doing about it. She hasn't yet figured out how to stop the train, but works to make sure that each of the grade crossings along the line are secured, since 8 of the tank cars on the runaway train collectively contain 80,000 gallons of molten phenol, a hazardous material.

On their train, Barnes and Colson hear the dispatcher's order to pull into a siding. Barnes says they can't use the siding initially assigned since the train is too long to fit in it. He asks instead if an RIP track further down the line is clear and gets permission to continue along the main line to it.

Galvin overrules Connie's suggestion to derail the train in an area of lightly populated farmland, since it would be too costly and it is still possible to stop the train. An emergency meeting of railroad executives approves another plan, but Galvin refuses to tell Connie what it is. The train's odyssey becomes a media event, followed by helicopters with continuous coverage on television and reporters at crossings in small towns.

The company's plan, to have a lashup of two locomotives enter the main line ahead of the runaway and slow it down while another employee attempts to board the lead locomotive from a helicopter, fails catastrophically, leading to the derailment of the lashup locomotives and the death of the veteran engineer operating them, Judd Stewart . The police abort another plan of triggering the safety switch on the locomotive's side with close-range shotgun blasts at a grade crossing when they realize the switch's proximity to the fuel tank. Barnes and Colson make it into the RIP track in the nick of time, as the runaway smashes through the rearmost car of their consist.

As the train passes, Barnes sees that the coupling on the last car of the runaway is open. He decides to put his locomotive in reverse and catch the runaway by coupling onto the back of it. Colson, at first reluctant, joins him. Galvin insists that Barnes, Colson, and Connie abandon the plan, but they refuse even after Galvin threatens to fire them. Barnes then reveals that he has already been fired by Galvin, forced into early retirement.

Another attempt to stop the train with derailers in a small town fails because the train is too heavy and going too fast. Evacuations begin as the train approaches Stanton, where the line crosses the town on a sharp elevated curve. Taking the curve at the runaway's current speed would result in it derailing and falling into a fuel oil tank farm, causing a major disaster.

Barnes and Colson catch up with the runaway. After Colson manually couples their locomotive to the train, they begin slowing it down with their own brakes, but are unable to slow the runaway down enough to safely navigate the curve. Barnes goes out onto the train and begins setting each car's brakes manually, but is stopped at a gap between two cars that is too wide to bridge. Colson then applies an independent brake from the chase locomotive. These two factors slow the train down just enough to get it through the curve with precarious tilting, rather than a derailment. After coming out of the curve, however, the chase locomotive's brakes blow out and the train begins to pick up speed again.

Ned the welder catches up to the train, and Colson jumps into the back of his truck. Driving at high speed they make it to the front of the runaway, where Colson jumps to the lead locomotive and finally stops the train. Barnes and Colson are declared heroes and reunite with their worried families.

Plot

Frank Moses (Willis), a former black-ops CIA agent, is now living a quiet life in retirement. However, he begins to feel lonely and often chats on the phone with Sarah (Parker), a customer service agent working for Frank's pension office in Kansas City.

His life is disrupted when a hit squad raids his house in the middle of the night. Frank kills the assassins and, knowing they would have tapped his phone, goes to Kansas City to protect Sarah. She becomes Frank's reluctant companion while he tries to find out who is trying to kill him, and track down his old black ops team for help. Meanwhile, CIA agent William Cooper (Urban) is assigned to hunt and kill Frank.

Frank first goes to New Orleans to find his mentor Joe Matheson (Freeman), currently living in a retirement community and terminally ill, who tells him that the hit squad Frank killed were also responsible for the murder of a news reporter. While avoiding Cooper, Frank and Sarah find clues left behind by the deceased reporter, which leads them to a hit list. They then track down Marvin Boggs (Malkovich), a paranoid conspiracy theorist, to provide more information. Marvin tells them that the names on the list were all connected to a secret mission in Guatemala that Frank participated in during 1981, and that one name, Gabriel Singer (Remar), is still alive. The trio track down Singer, who tells them that the mission involved extracting a person from a village and that everybody on the list has been killed to silence them. Singer is then assassinated by a helicopter machine gunner, and the team makes their escape as Cooper closes in. With the help of Russian secret agent Ivan Simanov (Cox), Frank and Sarah infiltrate the CIA headquarters to steal the file but Frank is injured in the process. Joe, having escaped an attempt on his life, helps extract the team and joins them. The team hides out in Victoria's (Mirren) house for first aid. Victoria, who misses her old life as a wetwork agent, joins the team as well.

After reviewing the file, all the team can figure out is that the only man involved not on the list, Alexander Dunning (Dreyfuss), has some way of protecting himself. The team arrives at Dunning's house, where he reveals under interrogation that the mission was to extract Vice-President Robert Stanton (McMahon), who at the time was a young lieutenant that experienced a breakdown and massacred the village. It becomes apparent that Stanton is trying to erase all the loose ends as he plans to run for president. At that moment, Cooper and the FBI surround Dunning's mansion. Cooper tries to negotiate Frank's surrender, but Frank tells Cooper about the vice-president's treachery, which shakes his faith. Joe sacrifices himself by taking Frank's place and pretending to give up. An unknown sniper kills Joe as he leaves the mansion, despite Cooper ordering his own men to hold fire. The confusion buys the team enough time to escape, but Sarah is captured. Frank calls Cooper and threatens to kill his family if Sarah is harmed, and that he intends to kill Stanton.

The team, along with Ivan (revealed to be Victoria's former lover), infiltrate Stanton's fundraising gala in Chicago and successfully kidnap him despite Cooper's best efforts to stop them. Frank calls Cooper and says he is willing to trade Stanton for Sarah. At the meeting point, Dunning arrives and reveals that he is the mastermind behind the assassinations and that Stanton was merely a pawn and scapegoat. Cooper's handler, Cynthia Wilkes, is also in on the plot. Disgusted with Dunning and Wilkes' greed and corruption and being used by her and Dunning, Cooper gives Frank the key to his handcuffs and shoots Wilkes while Marvin and Victoria kill Dunning's bodyguards, and Frank crushes Dunning's windpipe. Marvin then shoots him while he's on the ground. Cooper agrees to let Frank and his team go. As they leave the scene, Frank and Sarah are eager to start a new life together.

The final scene shows Frank and Marvin in Moldova, fleeing from Moldovan Army troops with a stolen nuclear device, in a wooden wheelbarrow with Marvin wearing a dress being pushed by Frank, as part of returning a favor to Ivan for his help.

Plot

Nick Parker (Quaid) and Elizabeth James (Richardson) met and married each other during an ocean cruise on the QE2. Elizabeth gave birth to twin daughters Hallie and Annie (both played by Lohan), but the couple divorced and lost contact with each other, each parent raising one of the twins without telling her about her sister. Nick raised Hallie in the Napa Valley and became a wealthy wine grower, while Elizabeth raised Annie in London and became a famous wedding gown designer.

After the ocean cruise and onboard wedding ceremony, the story jumps ahead to a summer in which Nick and Elizabeth coincidentally enroll their daughters in the same summer camp. Annie and Hallie, who are now eleven years old, first meet at the end of a fencing match, when they remove their masks and see that they look alike. A comical hostility between the two girls leads to a prank war that ends when the camp counselors fall into one of Hallie's traps and isolate the twins from the other girls.

Living together, Hallie and Annie discover that they were born on the same day and they each have half of a torn wedding photograph of their parents. Realizing with delight that they are twins, the girls hatch a plan to meet their previously unknown parents: Each girl will train her twin to impersonate her, and they will switch places at the end of the summer.

When camp is over, the plan succeeds: Hallie goes to London, where she meets her mother, her grandfather, and the James family's butler Martin (Kunz). Annie goes to California, where she meets her father, the Parker family's housekeeper Chessy (Walter), their dog Sammy, and Nick's young, opportunistic fiancée Meredith (Hendrix), who is only interested in Nick's money. Distressed by Meredith's deviousness, Annie telephones Hallie and persuades her to bring Elizabeth to California to break up the engagement. Soon the girls' identities are discovered, and, except for Nick and Meredith, who remain unaware of the switch, their newfound family members tearfully welcome them.

In order to bring Nick and Elizabeth together, Annie, Hallie, Grandpa, Chessy, and Martin conspire to have them meet at a hotel in San Francisco by arranging for Nick to meet Meredith's parents and by not telling Elizabeth about Meredith. Nervous about meeting Nick, Elizabeth asks Martin to accompany her and Hallie. After a few comical mixups in the hotel, Nick and Elizabeth see each other, Nick finally learns about the switch, and the twins host a candlelit dinner for Nick and Elizabeth, served by Martin and Chessy, on a yacht decorated to recreate their first meeting. At dinner, Elizabeth mentions that Nick didn't follow her after she left him. They make plans for the twins to spend holidays together, but decide against resuming their relationship.

Hallie and Annie dislike this idea, so they force their parents to take them camping by refusing to reveal which twin is which. After Elizabeth persuades Nick and the girls to take Meredith instead of herself, the twins play tricks on Meredith, who becomes enraged and insists that Nick choose between her and his daughters. Nick chooses the twins, and Meredith breaks off the engagement.

After Meredith leaves, Nick shows Elizabeth his wine collection, which includes the wine they drank at their wedding. Elizabeth is touched by this gesture at first, but has a change of heart and returns to London with Annie. However, when Elizabeth and Annie get home, they find Hallie and Nick waiting for them, having flown there on the Concorde. Elizabeth is fearful of remarrying, but she yields to Nick's confidence, and Annie and Hallie look on happily as Nick and Elizabeth embrace. The final credits feature photographs of Nick and Elizabeth's second wedding, also aboard the QE2, with the twins as bridesmaids, and Martin presenting Chessy with an engagement ring.

cuti2 cinta



Tak banyak yang boleh diharapkan daripada filem kedua romantik arahan Ahmad Idham, Cuti-Cuti Cinta (CCC). Masih lagi terikat dengan watak dan lawak stereotype, Cuti-Cuti Cinta mengisahkan cinta antara dua darjat versi moden.

Masih menjadikan watak lelaki lembut sebagai sandaran untuk membuatkan penonton ketawa. Ditambah pula dengan gaya percakapan orang berada seperti Tan Sri yang dilihat berlebih-lebihan. Bagi ManggaOnline (MO) sesetengah babak dalam filem ini sengaja mengadakan adegan lucu yang dilihat sudah basi.

Namun, Idham mempunyai visinya sendiri. Dilihat mampu untuk menarik penonton ke pawagam dengan gandingan segar Farid Kamil dan Nora Danish.

MO mempersoalkan filem Melayu sejak kebelakangan ini dilihat sekadar mencedok isu semasa dan diberikan nafas segar dalam pembikinannya. Sekadar mengusik, MO cuba menyatakan jumlah kutipan tidak menggambarkan kualiti isi kandungan sesebuah filem itu, namun pantas disangkal Idham.

"Kualiti itu subjektif. Macam filem saya sendiri, saya gunakan kamera high definition (HD) untuk mendapatkan kualiti terbaik. Saya sudah arahkan 20 lebih filem dan semuanya hit mencecah kutipan lebih daripada RM2 juta. Kualiti bagaimana yang dimaksudkan? Anda katakan filem saya tiada kualiti, namun kutipan yang dicatat menyatakan sebaliknya.

"Sebenarnya filem yang ringan lebih sukar untuk dibuat berbanding filem berat. Dan kita harus tengok lenggok filem dan permintaan penonton kerana perjalanan industri memang begitu.

"Dan kenapa saya buat watak lelaki lembut pada lakonan Cat Farish dalam CCC kerana saya lihat majoriti yang bekerja di bahagian house keeping memang begitu. Saya hanya kekal imej stereotype yang ada kerana kadang kala kita tak dapat lari daripada klise," ujarnya.

Namun masih ada yang dapat dibanggakan dalam CCC. Sentuhan sinematografi yang menarik dipercayai dapat menarik penonton melihat panorama indah yang dipersembahkan.

Lokasi penggambaran yang menarik juga merupakan satu kelebihan kepada CCC. Filem ini sesuai ditonton oleh semua lapisan masyarakat.

Cuti Cuti Cinta mengisahkan Eeva Elyana (Nora Danish) anak tunggal Tan Sri Zaini (Zaibo) yang kecewa dipermainkan tunangnya, (Remy) Zed Zaidi. Tersepit dengan masalah yang dihadapi, Eeva mengambil keputusan melarikan diri tanpa arah tujuan. Kekecewaanya itu membawa Eeva ke pusat peranginan di Morib.

Sikap Eeva yang gemar mendatangkan masalah kepada pekerja di hotel menemukannya dengan Omar Rudy (Farid Kamil). Sikap Omar yang melayani karenah Eeva tidak disenangi rakan sekerja yang lain iaitu Maliq (Adeep TFC), Kris Dayana (Wangi TFC) dan Fausrina (Zizie TFC). Sikap jeliknya telah menyebabkan mereka terperangkap di sebuah pulau. Saksikan kesudahan filem ini pada 21 Oktober ini di seluruh pawagam.



tertanam


Set in 2006 in Iraq, Paul Conroy, a US truck driver, awakens buried alive, bound and gagged, with only a Zippo and a BlackBerry. [8] Although he initially has no idea as to how he got there, he soon starts to piece together what has happened to him.[9] Gradually, Paul remembers that he and several other convoys were ambushed by insurgents, then all the other truck drivers were killed shortly before he blacked out. After finding the cellphone, Paul attempts to get into contact with his wife and his employers (who gave him a safety number if anything like this should occur) but is able only to leave a message for both of them. Paul is able to get into contact with the FBI, but they cut off before he can explain the situation. However, he is able to determine from the questions the FBI official asked him that he has been kidnapped. The kidnapper contacts him and demands a ransom of $5m to be released alive, but this is then lowered to $1m.

Paul eventually gets into contact with his employers, who pass him onto a group set up in 2004 specifically made to find people who have been kidnapped. While the man who is trying to find Paul tells him that they are doing their best, Paul is not convinced and asks the man to name a person who they have saved before. He claims they saved a man known as Mark White three weeks ago. After a long time of trying to get help, the kidnapper forces him to make a ransom video, which he refuses to do. The kidnapper threatens to kill his kidnapped co-worker, and Paul reluctantly agrees to do the video. Shortly afterwards, there is a violent shaking in the coffin, and sand starts to leak into the coffin. He then receives a video from the kidnapper of the female employee he knew being shot dead, causing him to feel incredibly guilty and to vomit. The stress becomes too great and Paul momentarily considers slitting his own throat with the knife, but he stops after thinking about his family.

Later on, he receives a phone call from his employers, who inform him that he was fired from his job that morning due to fraternizing with the same female employee (though Paul says the relationship was strictly professional) and so if he dies, his family will not get any insurance money. The government group calls Paul and explains that some F-16 fighter planes just bombed the area the coffin is in even though they knew he was in the area (they were able to roughly pin down his location, but not exactly). The sand starts to leak in at a considerably faster rate and Paul begins to lose all hope and does a last will and testament in video form, giving his son all of his clothes and his wife all of his personal savings ($700). As time goes on (with nobody planning to pay the ransom), the kidnapper calls with demands for blood instead of money and tells Paul to cut his finger off and send a recording of it. If he doesn't do this, the kidnapper will harm his family (as he reveals the details of where they live). If Paul does make the video, his family will not be harmed, and he will tell the US government where Paul is. With this, Paul complies, cutting his finger off and sending the video.

Within a few minutes, the government official phones Paul saying they now know where he is, explaining that they were given the details of where to find a man who was buried alive by an insurgent. Paul receives a phone call from his wife and tells her he is going to be okay, and they express their love for each other. A few minutes later, he gets a call from the rescue group saying that they are close and have found his location. They arrive to the apparent burial site and are about to dig up the coffin. Through the phone, digging is heard, but Paul cannot hear it. The sand begins to fill the coffin to deadly levels, giving Paul seconds left. However, when the group digs up the coffin, it turns out the man lead them to Mark White, a man Brenner claimed had been rescued earlier in the film. The cell phone battery dies and the sand fills the coffin, killing Paul. Dan's last words to Paul were "I'm sorry Paul, I'm so sorry".

Alpha & Omega

Kate (Hayden Panettiere) and Humphrey (Justin Long) are two wolves from the same pack in Canada’s Jasper National Park but on opposite ends of the social order. Kate, daughter of the main alpha male Winston (Danny Glover) and his mate Eve (Vicki Lewis), is herself an Alpha and takes her duty to the pack seriously. Humphrey, on the other hand, is an Omega wolf, the lowest of the pack, and spends his days making jokes and playing about with his other Omega friends Shakey (Kevin Sussman), Salty (Brian Donovan), and Mooch (Eric Price). Despite his low rank in the pack, Humphrey has a crush on Kate and is valued in the pack as a peacemaker by virtue of his affable nature.

During her youth, Kate left to begin Alpha school with her father. She returns as a fully trained Alpha but on her first hunt, two members of the Eastern pack ruin her attempt, leaving her pack with nothing but bones and scraps. The two packs have had a bitter rivalry since Winston dislikes the fact that Tony (Dennis Hopper), the Alpha male of the Eastern pack, wants to unite them into one large pack. Winston and Tony meet up one night and arrange for Kate to marry Tony’s son Garth (Chris Carmack). Kate, having followed her father and heard everything, wearily agrees for the good of the pack and she meets Garth at the Howling Rock. Garth too is a fully trained Alpha but one thing lets him down - his howl, which is how wolves find their mate, when their howls match. Garth begins to howl, and Kate is mortified by how bad he is. Kate escapes the date for a drink of water and runs into Humphrey by the river. They are then shot with tranquilizer darts by a ranger and taken to Idaho.

The two wolves wake up at Sawtooth National Recreation Area and meet a French-Canadian goose named Marcel (Larry Miller) who has an avid interest in golf and his caddy, a duck named Paddy (also voiced by Eric Price). Kate and Humphrey learn that they were relocated to repopulate the species, which upsets Kate. Marcel and Paddy agree to help the wolves return home to Jasper and they hitch a ride in a camper truck driven by a couple that vacation to Jasper yearly while Marcel and Paddy follow from above.

Trouble brews back at Jasper as the two packs discover that Kate has gone missing. Tony warns Winston that on the next full moon if Kate doesn’t return to marry Garth, he and his pack will declare war for their territory. Lilly (Christina Ricci), an omega wolf and Kate’s shy younger sister happens to fall in love with Garth and suggests that she show him around.

That night when the camper stops by a truck-stop, Humphrey exits the camper to urinate. He is distracted by a cupcake and begins to eat it. A man mistakes Humphrey for a rabid wolf since he had creamy frosting around his mouth. He then prepares to shoot Humphrey, but Kate jumps in to save him. They escape, but they sacrifice their ride to Jasper.

That night, Kate finds a ravine and attempts to cross it. She slips down the cliff, but Humphrey saves her by swinging on a vine and telling her to grab his tail. After that the two of them went off to make a den for the night.

The next morning, Marcel and Paddy find the wolves and direct them to a train over a snowy mountain that will take them to Jasper. Climbing the mountain Humphrey meets a bear cub who is unfamiliar with wolves. When they are playing, the cub gets hurt when a snowball is thrown at him. This angers a trio of bears (most likely the cub's parents) who think that Humphrey was trying to harm the cub. When Kate realizes that Humphrey is in danger, she rushes in to help him, causing them to slide down the other side of the mountain on a log (which happens to be one of Humphrey's hobbies). Humphrey saves Kate, and, as the train passes by, the two wolves manage to get into a boxcar just in time.



















On the train that night, Humphrey starts to howl at the full moon and asks Kate to join him. She does, after hearing his voice, and the two howl a romantic duet. Kate realizes that Humphrey is who she belongs with. Meanwhile at the Howling Rock in Jasper, Lilly helps Garth improve his howl. He succeeds and the two howl together. Tony and his pack show up at the scene to prepare to attack the other pack and berates his son for howling with an omega. Lilly retreats to alert her father. Since Kate has yet to return, Tony commands his pack to "take the valley."

Shortly, the train passes by Jasper. Humphrey attempts to tell Kate how he feels about her, but the sight of the packs fighting causes her to jump off the train before he can finish. Kate stops the fight by announcing that she will marry Garth for the good of the packs, much to Humphrey and Lilly’s surprise and disappointment.

The next day, a heartbroken Humphrey decides to leave Jasper and travel on his own and shares his goodbyes with Kate and Marcel and Paddy, who have arrived and decided to stay. Yet Kate feels heartbroken too after realizing how she feels about Humphrey. Halfway through Kate and Garth's marriage ceremony, Kate backs out after deciding Humphrey is who she wants to be with. Garth as well declares the same for Lilly. Winston is confused, while Tony and his pack start to fight the other pack out of anger, but the conflict is cut short when a massive stampede of caribou interrupts the scene. Winston and Tony are trapped in the stampede so Kate and Humphrey, who has decided to return, both jump in to the rescue. Kate is knocked out when attempting to reach cover, and Humphrey rushes forward to protect her.

After the stampede fades, it appears that Kate has been trampled to death. Humphrey declares his love for Kate and howls as a requiem for her, and all the wolves then join in. Then, Kate wakes up, much to everyone's relief. Kate and Humphrey finally declare their true feelings to each other, and Winston and Tony agree to unite the packs under a marriage between Garth and Lilly, and demolish the rule over social class. That night, everyone celebrates the happy ending at Howling Rock, and Humphrey and Kate howl a duet at the close of the film.

Lumba Mati 2


In 2012, private corporations own and manage the prison systems. Getaway driver Carl "Luke" Lucas (Luke Goss) is arrested after a robbery for his crime boss Markus Kane (Sean Bean) goes wrong. As his accomplices are robbing the bank, two officers casually enter the building. Luke tells them to abort, but they refuse; Luke intervenes, but it results in the death of one of the three accomplices. Luke shoots and kills one of the officers and dumps off his accomplices in order to fulfill Markus's wishes. In doing so, Luke is eventually captured by the police following a high-speed chase and sentenced to serve time on Terminal Island.

Terminal Island is a prison under the control of The Weyland Corporation, which hosts Death Match, a televised pay-per-view competition where two dangerous convicts are chosen and then forced to fight to the death or submission. The prisoners are given access to weapons or defense items to use during the fight by stepping on a marked plate in the arena. Luke meets the men who eventually become his pit crew in the Death Race: Lists (Frederick Koehler), who annoys him by over-analyzing everything, Goldberg (Danny Trejo), and Rocco (Joe Vaz). The host of Death Match is September Jones (Lauren Cohan), a former Miss Universe who lost her crown due to allegations of having a sexual relationship with all of its judges. She now works for The Weyland Corporation to create profit from the pay per view subscribers of Death Match. When a convict tries to stab Lists (because of his nature and weakness, as he was convicted only of swindling), Luke takes it upon himself to defend him.

Luke is later approached in the showers by September, who proposes that he fight. When he refuses, she makes sexual advances towards him, which he pretends to go for before refusing. In retaliation, September chooses Lists to fight in a Death Match with the convict who tried to stab him earlier. Luke confronts her while Lists is running for his life during the event, pleading to let him fight in place of Lists. She refuses to help and he jumps over a barbed fence to fight for Lists. He is joined by Katrina Banks (Tanit Phoenix), a woman convict who is serving as a ring girl with other female convicts. She hits the convict with a round number sign made of metal. A riot breaks out during the fight between Luke and the convict because of racial tension, sparked because Luke is white and the other convict is black. The convicts break down the fence to get in, and some of the rapists attack and attempt to rape female convicts. Katrina defends herself and helps other women, who are then evacuated. When the riot control guards come, Luke surrenders. Markus, worried that Luke will trade info on his crimes for immunity, discovers his location at Terminal Island while watching Death Match. Afterward, Luke is well-received when he sees Katrina and inquires about her well-being after the fight.
