Storyline
Rose Hathaway (Deutch) is a
Dhampir: half human/vampire, guardians of the Moroi, peaceful, mortal
vampires living discretely within our world. Her legacy is to protect
the Moroi from bloodthirsty, immortal Vampires, the Strigoi. This is her
story.
Vampire Academy tells the legend of Rose Hathaway (Zoey Deutch) and
Lissa Dragomir (Lucy Fry), two 17-year-old girls who attend a hidden
boarding school for Moroi (mortal, peaceful Vampires) and Dhampirs
(half-vampire/half-human guardians). Rose, a rebellious
Guardian-in-training and her best friend, Lissa - a royal vampire
Princess - have been on the run when they are captured and returned to
St.Vladamirs Academy, the very place where they believe their lives may
be in most jeopardy. Thrust back into the perils of Moroi Society and
high school, Lissa struggles to reclaim her status while Rose trains
with her mentor and love-interest, Dimitri (Danila Kozlovsky), to
guarantee her place as Lissa's guardian. Rose will sacrifice everything
to protect Lissa from those who intend to exploit her from within the
Academy walls and the Strigoi (immortal, evil vampires) who hunt her
kind from outside its sanctuary. |

The Wolf Of Wall Street
The wolf of wall street
Story: Middle-class Jordan Belfort makes millions selling dodgy stocks - how long can he fly high?
Review: Straight up, The Wolf of Wall Street (TWOWS) is one of the most amusing and appalling films around. Martin Scorsese paints a compelling portrait of Wall Street, that metaphor for American ability and greed, sending your head spinning with its ferocity. Leonardo DiCaprio stands foreground, delivering fresh-faced-with-wicked-eyes with the kick of a cocktail. DiCaprio excels as Jordan, a middle-class boy dreaming dollar signs, landing on Wall Street in 1987, mentored by stock wiz Mark Hannah (McConaughey) in how to 'move money from your client's pocket into yours'.
Jordan's loving the buzz when a crash forces him into a penny-stock trading firm, offering postmen and plumbers modest buys. Here too, with his drive and desire, Jordan strikes it rich, launching his own firm with neighbour Donny (Hill) and 'young, hungry, stupid' guys who get super-rich. When they're not ensuring the client 'either buys or f***ing dies', the brokers do drugs and sex like there's no tomorrow. But the FBI's watching their orgy.
DiCaprio runs away with Jordan, magnetic as he trains his pack to hunt, brutally funny when high on drugs, he crawls to his low-slung Ferrari. You feel Jordan's hunger for dough, his itching hands, his lips licked at the thought of his next billion. DiCaprio is compelling, quipping amidst carnality and cocaine, "This is obscene in the normal world - but who the f*** wants to live there?" Swinging from magnificent to meatloaf, DiCaprio nails over-the-top, yet fragile Jordan, unraveling after meeting Patrick Denham (Chandler), FBI.
There are further 'highs' - Hill's memorable as chubby, grotesque Donny, Jean Dujardin's like a polished fondue as slick Swiss banker Saurel, veteran British actress Joanna Lumley's in a nice cameo as Aunt Emma to Jordan's bombshell wife Naomi (Robbie). The movie could have snipped 20 minutes off but the soundtrack's peppy-bright against greed raw and stark, capturing the violence and vulgarity embellishing the victories of Wall Street. The 'F' word's sprinkled generously, like salt on French fries, shocking your taste-buds more. Prepare your appetite. This Wolf makes you wince, think, laugh - and growl.
Note: You may not like this movie if you don't like films with swearing and sex.
