Two and a Half Men Season 9

5 second plot: Well, Charlie is dead. Long live Walden. Alan gets serious with Lindsey. Her son is Jake's best friend. These two boneheads are as dumb as it can get. Walden divources and gets serious a bit later with British Zoey. And somewhere along the line Walden finds out his brother is a gorilla.

5 second review: It is brilliantly funny again. Ashton Kutcher is the best. It is kind of a strange situation with Alan not being family and living in Walden's house. The throwing up episode is a classic. Tears in my eyes.

Star Wars: The Clone Wars Season 4 is filled with disturbances

5 second plot: The 4th season starts with a big underwater battle. Then C3PO and R2D2 have some adventures on their own. Followed by a disastrous mission on a dark planet due to a jedi general gone mad. Then slave handlers piss Anakin off. And he even gets more angry when someone kills Obi-Wan. The season ends with Darth Maul and his brother vs Obi-Wan (he's not really dead you know) and Ventress.

5 second review: There's some cool new stuff, awesome warriors, great light-saber fights and space-battles but the best part is seeing Anakin lose it. We all know how where he's headed. Grievous pops up a lot since he's a great villain. Jar Jar is still annoying. And there's a lot of 'I feel a disturbance in the force' going about.

Laugh at My Pain is too emotional

5 second plot: The origin story of comedian Kevin Hart plus his stand up comedy show 'Laugh at My Pain' and a sketch where he and his crew rob a bank.

5 second review: He is a really funny guy so this is of course a really funny movie. But there are also a lot of emotions. And that's not necessary for me. But it is probably stuff that needed to be said.

IMDb score: 6,8/10

Warrior is not normal

5 second plot: Two brothers enter a mixed martial arts contest where the world's best fighters will compete. They both had a very tough childhood with an abusive alcoholic father. The youngest one, Tommy, is like a raging bull in the ring. The oldest one, Brendan, is a school teacher in real life. He needs the price money, or his family will lose their house.

5 second review: This movie is so good, it's not normal. The fights will get your heart pumping, the emotions will get your heart bleeding. Everyone involved is amazing. And Tom Hardy even tops those amazing performances. You can almost feel his anger. This is a straight A.

Falling Skies Season 1

5 second plot: Earth has been overrun by ugly skitter aliens. Most of humanity has been wiped out, but there are a couple of resistance groups. At first they are mostly on the run, but after a while they try to fight back.

5 second review: I didn't like this series at first, because the CGI is very poor in the first episodes and the story is pretty depressing. But after a while it gets better and by the final episode it focuses on the lurking danger and the fighting back. So now the second season can not come quickly enough.

Breaking Bad Season 4

5 second plot: Walt and Jessy are cooking meth on a very large scale for the biggest player on the market. He is, so they find out pretty quickly, a psychopathic nutcase that does not like to be cornered. Most of the season the lives of our two 'heroes' are in jeopardy. And they try to figure a way out of the mess.

5 second review: The season starts off slowly (a bit boring). But then it gets funny (you know: a lighter touch). And after the funny business it gets really interesting. And by the end of the season the tension rises so high that there seems to be now way they can pull off a good season finale. And it's true, it's not good: it's great.

Incendies is one hell of a story

5 second plot: A brother and a sister, twins, try to fulfill their mother's last wish by looking for their father and brother. They didn't even know they existed (or were alive). This quest takes them to their mother's birth place in the Middle East. They find out a lot more about their family history then they expected.

5 second review: The story unravels like a Hitchcock thriller. At first it's difficult to get used to the non-linear story telling, but after a while it makes it even more interesting. The end is a long shot, but still, there is an amazing storyteller at work here. What a fantastic movie.

The King's Speech is a powerful story

5 second plot: King George VI of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland couldn't speak in public without stammering. This had a big influence on his self-confidence. One day he meets a speech therapist who is convinced he can help him. His methods are unconventional but seem to be working.

5 second review: There is a great storyteller at work here. If you look at the title and the summary it looks extremely boring, but the movie is completely the opposite. It's an exciting, uplifting story about persistence and friendship. And it's a great look behind the scenes of the royal family at the brink of World War II.

Black Swan is seriously stressful

5 second plot: A (very good) ballet dancer is selected to be the lead in a very prestigious Swan Lake recital. She is perfect to play the white swan, but is too fragile to play the black one. She works so hard to do both parts perfectly that she loses her mind in the process.

5 second review: What an amazing performance. There is no doubt about it that Natalie Portman is perfect in this movie. The story is extremely dark and gave me stress throughout the entire thing. That's not a feeling I prefer when watching movies. But, although the entertainment value was very low for me personally, it's a movie you simply have to see if you're a film fan.

Ip Man has some great ass kicking

5 second plot: Ip Man is an extremely nice fellow who also happens to be an unbeatable martial arts master. Everything is well, until Japanese troops invade China. His home town is almost completely destroyed. Ip Man brings hope for not giving in to the oppression.

5 second review: For me, this movie is too poorly made to be in the IMDb top 250 list. The colors, the sound, the stages, the acting,... it's not all that good. But the fight scenes are amazing. And the message that is given is also fantastic.
