Despite the fact Van Helsing was commonly a supporting hero in more than forty vampire films, now he becomes a central character. He is to assist beautiful, sword-wielding Anna who is the last descendant of vampire-fighting clan, to slay the ominous count Dracula (Richard Roxburgh) having dispatched his monsters, namely the Wolf Man (Will Kemp), and Frankenstein's Monster (Shuler Hensley). Having convinced the distrustful peasants of his utility as the deliverer from the evil ones, Van Helsing (Hugh Jackman) comes into the fierce confrontation with three Dracula's brides, powerful and dissolute viragos who embellish the movie bringing in a spirit of the perishable lust. Considering an almost immense budget, special-effects in this movie are quite impressive along with admirable Kate Beckinsale's cute character and the handsome long-haired Hugh Jackman in his heydays. |

The early years of the famous magnate, Howard Hughes (1905-1976), are charted in this biographical chronicle where Leo DiCaprio stars. His eclectic career came through everything from oil, for which he cared little, to casinos, film, and aviation - as he turned millions of dollars into billions. His relationships with Hollywood's divas, including the elegant screen star Katharine Hepburn (Blanchett) and the sensual screen beauty Ava Gardner (Beckinsale) were also volatile. He was the incarnated mid-century icon of American wealth. Martin Scorsese directed this fast-moving, epic-scale biopic documenting the life and loves of the one of the most colorful Americans of the 20th century and also chronicles Hughes' struggle with his physical phobias and disabilities, and with his increasingly erratic, obsessive-compulsive behavior that forces him to isolate himself from the world. |
