City of God (Portuguese: Cidade de Deus) is a 2002 Brazilian crime drama film directed by Fernando Meirelles and co-directed by Kátia Lund, released in its home country in 2002 and worldwide in 2003. The story was adapted by Bráulio Mantovani from the 1997 novel of the same name written by Paulo Lins, but the characters are not fictitious and the plot is based upon real events. It depicts the growth of organized crime in the Cidade de Deus suburb of Rio de Janeiro, between the end of the '60s and the beginning of the '80s, with the closure of the film depicting the war between the drug dealer Li'l Zé and criminal Knockout Ned. The tagline is "If you run, the beast catches; if you stay, the beast eats", (a proverb analogous to the English "Damned if you do, damned if you don't").

The cast includes Alexandre Rodrigues, Leandro Firmino da Hora, Jonathan Haagensen, Douglas Silva, Alice Braga and Seu Jorge. Most of the actors were, in fact, residents of favelas such as Vidigal and the Cidade de Deus itself.
City of God received four Academy Award nominations in 2004: Best Cinematography (César Charlone), Best Directing (Meirelles), Best Editing (Daniel Rezende) and Best Writing (Adapted Screenplay) (Mantovani). Before that, in 2003 it had been chosen to be Brazil's runner for the Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film, but it was not nominated to be one of the five finalists.

Girl Model is a documentary that gives a different take on the notorious modelling industry than its title suggests. Going into this, one would expect a scathing picture of the physical torments, body-image issues and other predictable horrors of the modelling industry. Instead, this documentary focuses on the uncharted territory of the supply of young models between Siberia and Japan. It may not make an impacting statement but Girl Model is nevertheless a bleak, honest insight into the exploitation of innocence.

The film centres around two main characters. One is 14 year-old Nadya, a heart-wrenchingly innocent girl who lives in rural Siberia. We follow her as she goes through the auditions for Noah’s Modelling Agency, gets recruited, and is then whisked off to Tokyo with the promise of a great modelling career.
Equally intriguing is the story of Ashley Arbaugh, the scout who discovered Nadya and who is a former model herself. Her ambivalence and dulling dispassion towards her job and the models infuses the whole film with an uneasiness; a lingering lack of belief in the viewer that the hapless Nadya is in good hands.

Right from the beginning, David Redmon and Ashley Sabin establish a bleak and sombre mood. Watching any modelling auditions in any country can be a depressing experience, but here it is exacerbated by the fact that these naïve, poorly educated girls have no clue as to what they’re doing; illustrated fittingly by their show reels, in which they hold placards and are guided to introducing themselves in English (which most of them don’t even understand).
The auditions early in the film – the grey lighting, the blank facial expressions, minimal clothing – evoke images of cattle being herded into a slaughterhouse. Even though these girls have vague dreams of modelling stardom, the viewer is never under any illusions about the futility of this process.

Once Nadya gets selected and taken to Tokyo – that mecca of social alienation – an air of hopelessness takes over the film, making it difficult to watch at times. Holed up in a small room with a fellow aspiring model, Nadya goes to audition after audition with her ineffectual agent (ironically named Messiah), only to face constant rejection. It’s not long before Nadya’s better-educated and more clued-up room-mate intentionally breaches her contract and gets sent home, leaving Nadya on her lonesome.
The hopelessness of Nadya’s situation becomes apparent a little too quickly to remain engaging for the film’s whole viewing time. What upholds the intrigue, however, are the morally grey people working for the agency. The dead-eyed scout Ashley is a scarily detached presence whose life we get some insight into.
Particularly interesting are the recordings she took of herself when she was a young model in Japan. These haunting clips show a wide-eyed Ashley looking as if she’s on the verge of insanity, and it’s hard not to think that there must be a link between her experiences as a model and her current detached state.


The Russian model recruiter Tigran is an equally tough-to-read character. He talks of himself as a saviour for these girls, wanting to give them opportunities that most girls in this remote part of Russia can only dream of. However, inter-cutting this with the reality of Nadya’s experience suggests that he’s way off the mark. Then there is the Japanese contact Messiah. While little is revealed of his character, his fumbling inability to answer the simple question, ‘Why bring the models to Tokyo if they’re not guaranteed work?’ is comical, disturbing, and hugely revealing.
Girl Model does not shock us into thought. Instead, it despondently drifts to a conclusion in which Nadya, the epitome of innocence, comes back from her experience a little wiser to the workings of a cold and exploitative world. There are few surprises here for us cynical Western viewers who already know that this is how things work, but seeing the process so vividly in action is nevertheless a poignant experience.

After the events in Paris in Taken, family members of the men whom Bryan Mills (Neeson) killed while searching for his daughter, Kim (Grace), return to their hometown, Tropojë, for their funeral. During the ceremony, Murad Krasniqi (Šerbedžija), the employer of the men and father of Marko, a victim whom Bryan killed via electrocution, states that they will find Bryan to avenge the deaths of their loved ones.
When arriving at Kim's home to take her on a driving lesson, Bryan learns that Kim is not there and has a new boyfriend from her mother Lenore (Janssen) who is currently having relationship problems with her husband. After her husband cancels their holiday to China, Bryan suggests that Kim and Lenore join him in Istanbul after he has finished some work he has agreed on. After being led to believe that they have not taken him up on the offer, Bryan is surprised to find that Kim and Lenore have indeed flown out to join him, using his friends to surprise him.


Later, after lunch in the marketplace, Kim stays behind in an attempt to help her parents rekindle their relationship. While they are out, they are pursued by Murad's men and, despite Bryan's efforts, Lenore is captured, forcing Bryan to surrender. Before he does so, he calls Kim to explain the situation and tells her to hide. With advice from Bryan, she is able to evade the kidnappers.
Bryan wakes up with his hands tied to a pole in a dark room. Using a communications device that he had hidden in his socks before setting out that day, Bryan calls Kim, instructing her to go to the US Embassy and tell them what happened, but she begs for a chance to help him and Lenore, which he decides to give her. Under Bryan's guidance, she opens up his weaponry suitcase and throws a live grenade out the window. Bryan uses the time it takes for the sound of the explosion to deduce his location. He then has her take a gun and two more grenades and travel towards his location via the rooftops while he frees himself from his restraints. Bryan then sends steam up a chimney to pinpoint his location, and Kim drops the gun down the chimney, allowing Bryan to use it to kill the guards and escape the building, leaving Lenore behind while he rescues Kim, who is being chased.




Dragon Age: Origins is a third-person single-player role-playing video game developed by BioWare's Edmonton studio and published by Electronic Arts. It is the first game in the Dragon Age franchise. The game was released for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 on November 3, 2009, and for Mac OS X on December 21, 2009.

Set in the fictional kingdom of Ferelden during a period of civil strife, the player assumes the role of a warrior, mage or rogue coming from an elven, human, or dwarven background who must unite the kingdom to fight an impending invasion by demonic forces. BioWare describes Dragon Age: Origins as a "dark heroic fantasy set in a unique world", and a spiritual successor to their Baldur's Gate series of games, which took place in the Forgotten Realms Campaign Setting of the Dungeons & Dragons franchise.
Upon its release, Dragon Age: Origins was lauded with overwhelmingly positive reviews and considered a critical success. Review aggregator site Metacritic ranks the PC, PlayStation 3, and Xbox 360 versions of the game with scores of 91, 87, and 86, respectively. The game also received multiple awards from numerous outlets, ranging from IGN's "PC Game of The Year (2009)" to the Academy of Interactive Arts & Science's "Role-Playing/Massively Multiplayer Game of the Year 2009"

The game incorporates 6 "origins", the choice depending on the race and class chosen. For example, a dwarf noble begins the game as part of the dwarven royal family, whereas in the dwarf commoner origin, the player starts as a "lowborn" living in poverty. In the human noble origin, the player begins as a Cousland, one of the human noble families in Ferelden. Elven and human mages start their story off in the Ferelden's circle of magi. Origin stories determine the background of the player's character prior to the main events of the game's story, forming an introduction to the world (and a gameplay tutorial) while also comprising hours of play. Events of an individual origin are reflected in the game story and characters. Characters that the player meets during the origin story may reappear throughout the game, some as adversaries.
There is no tracking of moral alignment as in previous BioWare games, just party favor. You can give party members gifts and your speech choices can gain you favor or disfavor with your group[20] but the moral choices of the player will still affect the story throughout the game. The player will accomplish different goals depending on if they choose to be good or evil, but the decisions that the player makes in the process will change the game world accordingly – deciding who will become king, for example, and affecting nations, races and their places in the world. These decisions will also influence the companion NPCs, possibly causing an NPC to leave the party[21] or even attack the player if they disagree strongly with his or her actions.


The game has been described as the spiritual successor to Baldur's Gate by BioWare co-CEO Ray Muzyka, as players are able to issue orders to NPCs in real time, but pause the game to queue up actions such as spells and special attacks, a game mechanic from the Baldur's Gate series. There are three base classes to choose from: warrior, mage, and rogue. These classes can be upgraded into a specialized class such as the berserker or templar for the warrior class, shapeshifter or spirit healer for the mage class, and assassin or ranger for the rogue. The game uses a party system similar to that of the Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic, another BioWare roleplaying game, featuring the main character with up to three active party members chosen from a pool of NPCs.
The game features a degree of interactivity between spells, such as a fire spell igniting a grease slick before being put out by a blizzard. The game contains many combinations which can be discovered by the player either by accident, or by finding clues as to which combinations are valid.



An expansion to the game, titled Dragon Age: Origins – Awakening, was released in March 2010, and the official sequel, Dragon Age II, was released in March 2011. BioWare intends for Dragon Age: Origins to serve as the foundation for a much broader intellectual property. Even before its release, plans to expand the universe introduced by the game were underway; this included sequels, pen and paper games, books, and comics that would expand the scope of the Dragon Age franchise.[18] Several of those projects have since been released.

Release
Looper was released in the United States on September 28, 2012.[14] The film's studio Endgame Entertainment negotiated a deal with FilmDistrict at the Cannes Film Festival in May 2011, for FilmDistrict to release the film in the United States through TriStar Pictures.
The Chinese release of the film will reintegrate a number of scenes set in Shanghai that were edited out due to pacing reasons. The move was requested by Chinese production company DMG Entertainment in order to further appeal to Chinese audiences.
Looper was the Opening Gala Presentation at the Toronto International Film Festival on September 6, 2012.
Looper had a UK Premiere as the surprise film of the 32nd Cambridge Film Festival (audience members did not know what film was to be screened until it started).
Reception
The film has received near-universal acclaim from critics. As of October 2, 2012 it holds a 94% "Certified Fresh" rating on Rotten Tomatoes based on 201 reviews, with an average score of 8.2/10, with the critics consensus stating "As thought-provoking as it is thrilling, Looper delivers an uncommonly smart, bravely original blend of futuristic sci-fi and good old-fashioned action." On Metacritic, the film holds an 84/100 average rating based on 43 critics, indicating "universal acclaim". UK-based film magazines Empire and Total Film both gave the film a five-star review (denoting 'outstanding') with the latter saying that it's "The best sci-fi movie since Moon. The best time-travel yarn since 12 Monkeys. And one of the best films of 2012." McCoy Cantwell has also given the film positive reviews, calling it the "best [sci-fi] film [in a very long time]."
