Review: In a busy summer season where audiences find themselves been slaughtered by four major superhero movies in under tight 12 weeks window, there might or might not be a room for the last one. By this day, 'superhero-fatigueness-syndrome' does seem imminent after the decent 'Thor', excellent 'X-Men: First Class' and the lousy 'Green Lantern' have been offered on the table earlier the season. However, all three have failed to live up to the box office expectation of cash-cowing the audience and fan boys. The fourth one is not expected to do anyway better. While Captain America: The First Avenger is the last to come for this summer, it certainly doesn't come unnoticed!

The sequel to the popular and 'weird' dancing penguin animation is boosting a huge voice casting talents including Brad Pitt, Hugo Weaving, Elijah Wood, Robin Williams and P!nk.

Review: Once upon a time, a gang of buddies had a drink or two on top of the roof. So a drink or two did no harm to the drinking buddies right? Why not considering in a couple of days time, one of their best friend will embark into a married life and let’s make a toast for him. What happens next was described in the movie title itself. The next morning, they woke up in a strange feeling of headache, nausea and dysphoria – classical symptoms of hangover.

Plot: Hanna (Saoirse Ronan) is 16 years old. She is bright, inquisitive, and a devoted daughter. Uniquely, she has the strength, the stamina, and the smarts of a soldier; these come from being raised by her widowed father Erik (Eric Bana), an ex-CIA man, in the wilds of North Finland. Erik has taught Hanna to hunt, put her through extreme self-defense workouts, and home-schooled her with only an encyclopedia and a book of fairy tales. Hanna has been living a life unlike any other teenager; her upbringing and training have been one and the same, all geared to making her the perfect assassin. But out in the world there is unfinished business for Hanna's family, and it is with a combination of pride and apprehension that Erik realizes his daughter can no longer be held back.

Review: Government agency always comes with a dirty secret that they would like to dispose. Super solider program, artificial intelligence and spy hacking are not really new in the current world of Hollywood model to establish a thriller movie about someone trying to take down the whole agency for getting rid of them somehow or possibly tormenting their past life for good. There are people who will never stop at anything to go against these questionable secrets and we know Hollywood can do best of it when it comes to this. Move aside everyone.

PARANORMAL ACTIVITY 3 IS HERE WITH A TRAILER

Paramount Pictures' Paranormal Activity is just one of those horror movie that makes use of two important things - ultra-low-budget to make tonnes of money and found-footage horror is still quite the thing in Hollywood. Two Paranormal Activity movies scored pretty decently in terms of review here at Green Tea Movie, but it only takes in $370 million box office receipt against $4 million budget to make it a no-brainer if Paramount Pictures doesn't go for the third round. It seems they did and here is the first footage trailer of Paranormal Activity 3 which you can view after the jump.

Review: Move aside talking animals, I despise you! In the world when Hollywood movies seem to be catering this new strange-bond-relationship between human and animals that can talk, all got hair-wire and sense of logic is gone. For years, talking animals have invaded our sanity - Yogi Bear, Hop, Alvin and the Chipmunks, Cats and Dogs; and not to mention, the upcoming Zookeeper. Thanks to those movies, now I feel that my love for animals have lost due to the annoying little creatures - yes they give you no cuteness, only mess that you need to clean up. Fortunately, there are still some animals willing to sign up for a movie; without that talking component. Never since "Marley and Me" do I feel reconnect to the lost magical kinetic bond with animals that re-establishes on this latest Jim Carrey vehicle family comedy. Read on for more review after the jump.

In the epic finale, the battle between the good and evil forces of the wizarding world escalates into an all-out war. The stakes have never been higher and no one is safe. But it is Harry Potter who may be called upon to make the ultimate sacrifice as he draws closer to the climactic showdown with Lord Voldemort. It all ends here.

Review: [Minimal Plot Spoilers] Warner Bros marketing campaign has been emphasizing greatly on the tagline "It All Ends 7.15" for this final movie in the popular saga. In case you did not know, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 2 is the second half adaptation taken from the seventh book in the Harry Potter series. Now, it has been a full decade of its existence on the silver screen. It spawns a total of 8 movies, generating billions of dollar on box office, DVD, television rights, merchandise and of course to the author J.K. Rowling herself. It is time to bid farewell to the popular series but do dramatic plot and emotional goodbye to the characters overwhelm the need for great quality of the movie itself? More details after the jump.

INTERNATIONAL TEASER FOR TINKER, TAILOR, SOLDIER, SPY

Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy is an upcoming film directed by Swedish filmmaker Thomas Alfredson; which is itself based on the 1974 novel of the same name by John le Carre. In case you do not know who Thomas Alfredson is, he is the man who helm one of my favorite Swedish movie of all time - the disturbing adaptation of Let the Right One In (Lat den ratte komma in). Few years ago, Alfredson made some international headlines with his critical direction that showcased his ability and attentive nature for the source material. It is unfortunate that the horror flick missed out from most major award season, rather basking itself with some commendable awards. This year however, Alfredson might have another shot for Oscar, as many have deemed it as one of the potential front runner.

The international teaser of the British's Working Title Films and French's StudioCanal production is now online, courtesy of Coming Soon. Watch the trailer after the jump.
