By bongiovanni cherson

I have made a short list of movie hits for 2008. This list consists of the motion pictures I found entertaining in this years crop. Hopefully you will see a picture or two that are worth watching.

TWENTY ONE: The basis for this film is an amazing true story of young college kids who created a winning formula to beat blackjack. These wiz kids learned to beat the game, and then performed a ruthless attack on the tables. To beat the games in Vegas, where players who beat the game can be banned from playing, they created false identities, and used complex signals to avoid detection. Twenty One is based on the book that explains how these kids made millions playing blackjack.

10,000 B.C.: This movie sends us back 1,000's of years. When mysterious warlords from another tribe storm the Yaghai people, they kidnap the beautiful Evolet. A young hunter named D'Leh, who is in love with her, leads a group of hunters to pursue the warlords, and save her, and the rest of the captured tribe members.

WANTED: Wesley, an office worker going nowhere in life, learns that his long lost father is a professional killer. His father has been murdered, now Wesley is asked to join into the group of assasins that his dead father was involved with. He is asked to become the professional killer that that he was destined to become. From that point on, this movie gets very complex and twisted. Enjoy this roller coaster ride.

WALL-E: This film is an animated, comedy, adventure, sci-fi. Earth has been left behind, an uninhabitale wasteland. Wall-E, a robot built to remove trash, has been left behind to clean up the mess.
