Pop Music Downloads

By Ellensburg Togashi

It used to be that you had to go to the video store to get a movie. As technologies have advanced, downloading dvds from off movie download sites is becoming very common. Following is list of a few movies that you can get using a movie download site.

The Rock: General Francis Hummel is angry with the U.S. government for not honoring men he has because they died during covert operations. HE is so angered by this rebuke that he takes a group of tourists visiting the now closed prison of Alcatraz, and holds them hostage. He plans to unleash poisonous gases upon the city of San Francisco if his demands are not met. The unlikely team of a biological weapons expert, and a former prisoner of Alcatraz, must sneak onto the island and attempt to thwart the plot.

Saw: Two men are trapped in a room. Both men are chained to their half of the room. A story unfolds as these two people are given clues and information about the situation they are in and why. Can they solve the puzzle and get out alive?

Singapore: Tempting tirade of dealer/pearl smuggler MacMurray returning to Singapore after a 5-year absence, recollecting his prior romantic relation with Gardner. He imagines she was slaughtered throughout a Japanese bombing assault. However, she seriously was a sufferer of amnesia. The characters in this appear to be extremely loosely modeled after those in CASABLANCA. Cast includes Ava Gardner, Roland Culver, Richard Haydn, Spring Byington, Thomas Gomez, and Porter Chamber. (79 minutes, 1947)

Dante's Peak: Formulaic yet amusing catastrophe film where we see a scientist from the U.S. Geological Study who hangs around a mountainside town in Washington just beside a volcano that he feels is going to blow at some second. Cast includes Pierce Brosnan, Linda Hamilton, Jamie Renee Smith, Jeremy Foley, Elizabeth Hoffman, and Charles Hallahan. (108 minutes, 1997)

Point Break: Johnny Utah, a rookie FBI agent, goes undercover, as a surfer, to infiltrate a suspicious group of surfers that might be responsible for a string of bank heists. He is taken in by the group, and learns the life of a surfer. When it's time will Johnny Utah be able to take these criminals down.

Good Morning Babylon: Two Italian brothers, whose artisan family has conditioned and repaired cathedrals for generations, materialize to America in 1915 and end up performing for D. W. Griffith on his fable film Intolerance. This is a valentine to the early nights of moviemaking, and a declaration in reference to the immortality of the craft Cast includes Vincent Spano, Joaquim De Almeida, Greta Scacchi, Desiree Becker, Charles Dance, Omero Antonutti, and David Brandon. (117 minutes, 1987)

The Rains Came: Louis Bromfield novel lessened to Hollywood dribble, with wedded socialite Loy setting out to seduce committed Indian surgeon Power. Momentous earthquake and deluge scenes are displayed. The visual effects won an Academy Award. Cast includes Myrna Loy, Tyrone Power, George Brent, Brenda Joyce, Nigel Bruce, Maria Ouspenskaya, Joseph Schildkraut, and Mary Nash. (104 minutes, 1939)

Ivan the Horrible: Film spectacle of the highest request. Eisenstein's remarkably lavish but detailed journal of King Ivan IV's life from coronation to conquer to reinstatement. A forging captivating icon of the gentleman and his nation can be found here. Improved by Prokofiev's primordial score so be it. Bulky going, although beneficial; the tale proceeds in Ivan the Awful. Cast includes Sergei Eisenstein, Nikolai Cherkassov, Ludmila Tselikovskaya, and Serafima Birman. (99 minutes, 1943)

Black Rain: New York detectives Nick Conklin and Nick Vincent capture a killer who is part of the Japanese Mafia. Upon escorting him back to Japan, he escapes. With the assistance of the Tokyo police they try and track this killer down. They find themselves being pulled deep into the world of the Japanese Mafia.
