Movie Review: Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides Posted: 21 May 2011 02:55 PM PDT Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides Directed by Rob Marshall Starring Johnny Depp, Penélope Cruz, Geoffrey Rush, and Ian McShane Release Date: May 20, 2011 It's hard to believe that On Stranger Tides is the fourth Pirates of the Caribbean movie to come out in less than a decade. But Disney has found a cash-cow and it's obvious the two big stars are still having fun with their roles, so the series marches on. But by the fourth film, most ongoing series have run out of material and the second and third Pirate films were showing big signs of burnout. On Stranger Tides needed to be a new beginning as much as it needed to be a sequel, and in many ways it succeeds. Picking up an unknown amount of time after the end of the third film, Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides finds the few returning characters in very different situations than we left them. Captain Jack Sparrow (Johnny Depp) has long been without a ship, having lost the Black Pearl to Captain Barbossa (Geoffrey Rush) at the end of the last film.

Their paths cross once again after Spanish explorers find evidence of the Fountain of Youth. Joined by Angelica (Penélope Cruz), a mysterious woman with a history with both Jack and Blackbeard, everyone sets off in search of the fountain [...] |
Book Review: The Heir of Night: The Wall of Night Book One Posted: 21 May 2011 09:52 AM PDT The Heir of Night The Wall of Night Book One Paperback | Kindle By Helen Lowe HarperCollins Release Date: September 28, 2010 The first novel in a planned trilogy, The Heir of Night is about a princess named Malian who is the Heir to the House of Night, and it's her mission to fight against the Darkswarm who have been terrorizing the lands of her people for quite some time. The people thought they were banished, but it turns out they weren't, and she has to fight against them by finding legendary artifacts that are buried across different lands. Along the way, she discovers her love for her best friend, Kalan, who is Heir to the House of Blood. I will preface my review by saying that although The Heir of Night is marketed toward the adult fantasy market, it will appeal more to teens, especially lovers of Tamora Pierce's books who will forge an instant connection with the teenage main character, Malian, who is the Heir of Night [...] |
