Review film world war z

Seperti film zombie pada umumnya, penyebaran virus tidak diketahui asalnya. Ketika Gerry Lane dibangunkan oleh anaknya di pagi hari dan sambil memasak sarapan untuk anaknya, tidak sengaja melihat berita kejadian tentang kekacauan di negara lain. Hal tersebut pun diabaikan oleh Gerry Lane yang dimana berstatus sebagai salah satu orang terpenting dalam PBB.

Kejadian berawal saat Gerry Lane bersama Karen Lane (istrinya) sedang berada dalam kendaraan dengan tujuan mengantar kedua putrinya untuk sekolah. Karen Lane bertanya kepada Gerry yang sedang menunggu kemacetan tentang banyaknya helikopter dan motor polisi yang berlalu lalang.

Karena ingin tahu, akhirnya Gerry Lane pun keluar dari mobilnya untuk melihat keadaan. Akan tetapi tiba-tiba sebagian orang telah menjadi zombie dan menularkan virusnya ke satu dengan yang lain sehingga penyebarannya pun terjadi dengan cepat.

Tanpa berpikir panjang, Gerry Lane langsung menyuruh anaknya keluar dan langsung berlari sambil menghubungi pihak PBB untuk penjemputan di sebuah apartemen.

Kisah Gerry Lane dalam World War “Z” bisa dikatakan cukup menegangkan dan juga menarik. Hal yang menarik adalah pada bagian akhir film yang dimana Gerry Lane berhasil menemukan kelemahan zombie dan cara mengatasi agar zombie tidak mengejar.’

Pendapat :

Film ini berbeda dengan novelnya sendiri. Dalam novelnya alur cerita berisi kesaksian dari orang yang pernah mengalami dari berbagai Negara setelah 10 tahun serangan Zombi. Sedangkan dalam filmnya cerita dimulai dengan serangan Zombi itu sendiri saat ini, bukan 10 tahun kemudian. Film ini disajikan dengan ketegangan sejak awal sampai akhir. Sifat ketegangan yang ditampilkan bukanlah horor atau misteri malam tetapi sebuah ketegangan thriller yang berpacu dengan waktu.

Special efek yang digunakan cukup lumayan dalam menghadirkan ribuan Zombie yang tumplek blek dan memanjat tembok atau gedung bertingkat. Penampakan pesawat terbang dengan manusia yang berhamburan keluar cukup membuat penonton bertahan napas dengan pikiran kapan ketegangan ini bisa berakhir.

Secara umum penampilan semua pemainnya lumayan. Hanya saja sang sutradara berusaha menyampaikan cerita tentang emosional keluarga dan keterikatannya kurang maksimal. Ada beberapa hal yang menjadi pertanyaan seperti misalnya kenapa Zombi bisa bekerja sama memanjat tembok. Kenapa Zombi tidak memangsa korbannya melainkan menggigit saja lalu meninggalkannya. Sebagai sebuah tontonan film ini cukup lumayan.

REVIEW FILM : THE CORE

Review film THE CORE by zeriko gania

FILM THE CORE menceritakan tentang penyelamatan yang dilakukan manusia dalam menghentikan akhir dunia yang akan terjadi, ditandai dengan keajadian-kejadian yang tidak masuk akal, dan serentetan fenomena yang terjadi di permukaan bumi, gejala pertama adalah matinya 32 orang secara bersamaan dan misterius pada satu tempat yang sama. Mereka mati mendadak tanpa gejala sakit sebelumnya. Lalu gejala kedua yaitu burung merpati yang berterbangan tak tentu arah, mereka menabrakan dirinya sendiri seperti hilang arah kendali. Lalu seorang professor ahli geofisika bernama dr.keyes meneliti bahwa kejadian yang terjadi merupakan gejala awal dan yang tejadi selanjutnya lebih mengerikan dari itu. Yaitu dalam satu tahun semua manusia akan mati karna perubahan cuaca ekstrim, kiamat planet bumi. Ia mendapatkan teori bahwa kejadian yang terjadi sangat berkaitan dengan elektromagnetik. Dan elektro magnetic terbesar terdapat di inti bumi sendiri. Ia berasumsi bahwa aliran magma yang terdapat di inti bumi telah berhenti bergerak. Lalu ia mulai mencari seorang ilmuwan pemerintah bernama dr. zimsky untuk memperkuat temuanya itu. Lalu temuan tersebut dipersentasikan didepan pemerintah di amerika serikat dan mereka sepakat akan memperbaiki dan pergi langsung ke inti bumi dengan cara meledakan fusi nuklir agar inti bumi dapat berjalan sebagai mana mestinya. Mereka mulai bekerja sama dengan Negara-negara di dunia dan mengumpulkan dana dan orang orang terbaik dibidangnya. Dan bertemulah mereka dengan ilmuwan yang berusaha menciptakan kendaraan yang dapat menembus inti bumi dengan teknologi ultrasonic yang dapat membuat lubang di bebatuan dengan mudah dan dengan lapisan kendaraan yang tahan ribuan derajat Celsius. Lalu dibuat lah kendaraan tersebut yg bernama virgil, orang-orang terbaik sudah berkumpul untuk berlatih menjalankan misi ke inti bumi. Sampai waktunya hari peluncuran tiba. Virgil pun dilepas di palung mariana palung terdalam lalu mulai mengebor ke intibumi selama berjam jam. Misi ini tidak berjalan mulus. Virgil terjebak diladang Kristal lalu satu persatu personel mati dalam misi. Mulai dari pembebasan virgil karna tersangkut Kristal, lalu ketika gerbong terakhir tergores bongkahan berlian, lalu ketika virgil mulai rusak dan pada perbaikan nya memakan korban penciptanya sendiri. Lalu tinggalah 3 orang awak kru, mereka kebingungan karna rencana merka hamper gagal,sedangkan rencana kedua pemeritah adalah mengaktifkan DESTINY yaitu senjata yang dapat mengahasilkan gempa bumi buatan tetapi dengan resiko yang sangat besar. Tiap gunung berapi di bumi akan meletus. Dr. keyes tidak ingin proyek itu dilaksanakan, lalu salah seorang professor terebut mendapatkan teori agar satu persatu nuklir dari 6 nuklir akan diledakan secara terpisah dengan cara memutuskan tiap gerbong virgil, yang pastinya dalam pengerjaannya memakan korban seorang lagi. Ternyata cara itu berhasil. Inti bumi bergerak kembali. Tersisa 2 orang awak kru yang masih hidup. Lalu ia mulai memanfaatkan inti bumi dan ledakan dari nuklir yang dibuat untuk pergi kepermukaan bumi dengan selamat. Meskipun virgil stop hanya di dasar laut. Mereka tetap di temukan hidup hidup oleh bantuan the rat yang menngetahui bahwa suara paus adalah tanda keberadaaan mereka karna mereka mengirimkan sinyal ultrasonic. Bumi kembali berputar. Kehidupan pun kembali normal dan senjata rahasia pemerintah DESTINY pun disebarluaskan dan diketahui seluruh penjuru bumi. Kiamat benar-benar dihentikan oleh manusia

There is a space-time vortex around Earth, and its shape precisely matches the predictions of Einstein’s theory of gravity. Researchers confirmed these points at a press conference at NASA headquarters where they announced the long-awaited results of Gravity Probe B (GP-B). “The space-time around Earth appears to be distorted just as general relativity predicts,” says Stanford University physicist Francis Everitt, principal investigator of the Gravity Probe B mission.

 ”This is an epic result,” adds Clifford Will of Washington University in St. Louis. An expert in Einstein’s theories, Will chairs an independent panel of the National Research Council set up by NASA in 1998 to monitor and review the results of Gravity Probe B. “One day,” he predicts, “this will be written up in textbooks as one of the classic experiments in the history of physics.” Time and space, according to Einstein’s theories of relativity, are woven together, forming a four-dimensional fabric called “space-time.

” The mass of Earth dimples this fabric, much like a heavy person sitting in the middle of a trampoline. Gravity, says Einstein, is simply the motion of objects following the curvaceous lines of the dimple. If Earth were stationary, that would be the end of the story. But Earth is not stationary.

Our planet spins, and the spin should twist the dimple, slightly, pulling it around into a 4-dimensional swirl. This is what GP-B went to space in 2004 to check. The idea behind the experiment is simple: Put a spinning gyroscope into orbit around the Earth, with the spin axis pointed toward some distant star as a fixed reference point. Free from external forces, the gyroscope’s axis should continue pointing at the star–forever. But if space is twisted, the direction of the gyroscope’s axis should drift over time. By noting this change in direction relative to the star, the twists of space-time could be measured.

The results of Gravity Probe B give physicists renewed confidence that the strange predictions of Einstein’s theory are indeed correct, and that these predictions may be applied elsewhere. The type of space-time vortex that exists around Earth is duplicated and magnified elsewhere in the cosmos–around massive neutron stars, black holes, and active galactic nuclei.

 “If you tried to spin a gyroscope in the severely twisted space-time around a black hole,” says Will, “it wouldn’t just gently precess by a fraction of a degree. It would wobble crazily and possibly even flip over.” For readers who are not experts in relativity: Geodetic precession is the amount of wobble caused by the static mass of the Earth (the dimple in space-time) and the frame dragging effect is the amount of wobble caused by the spin of the Earth (the twist in space-time). Both values are in precise accord with Einstein’s predictions.

Note: Our visitors have explored the space-time vortex that exists around Earth that is duplicated and magnified elsewhere in the cosmos.  This concept may explain extraterrestrial space travel from distant planets to Earth in a relatively short time.

UFO Research: Findings vs. Facts

UFO Research: Findings vs. Facts

https://www.space.com

By Leonard David, Space.com's Space Insider Columnist | June 22, 2006 06:01am ET

For decades now, eyes and sky have met to witness the buzzing of our world by Unidentified Flying Objects, termed UFOs or simply flying saucers. Extraterrestrials have come a long way to purportedly share the friendly skies with us.'

UFOs and alien visitors are part of our culture-a far-out phenomenon when judged against those "low life" wonders Bigfoot and the Loch Ness monster.

And after all those years, as the saying goes, UFOs remain a riddle inside a mystery wrapped in an enigma. Why so? For one, the field is fraught with hucksterism. It's also replete with blurry photos and awful video. But then there are also well-intentioned and puzzled witnesses .Scientifically speaking, are UFOs worth keeping an eye on?

Ten Alien Encounters Debunked

Unusual properties

There have been advances in the field of UFO research, said Ted Roe, Executive Director of the National Aviation Reporting Center on Anomalous Phenomena (NARCAP), based in Vallejo, California.

"The capture of optical spectra from mobile, unpredictable luminosities is one of those innovations. More work to be done here but [there are] some good results already."

NARCAP was established in 2000 and is dedicated to the advancement of aviation safety issues as they apply to, what they term Unidentified Aerial Phenomena (UAP).

Roe said that a decade from now, researchers should have even better instrumentation at their disposal and better data on UAP of several varieties. His forecast is that scientific rigor will prevail, demonstrating that there are "stable, mobile, unusual, poorly documented phenomena with quite unusual properties manifesting within our atmosphere," he told SPACE.com.

Paradigm shifting

NARCAP has made the case that some of these phenomena have unusual electromagnetic properties. Therefore, they could disrupt microprocessors and adversely effect avionic systems, Roe explained, and that for those reasons and others UAP should be considered a hazard to safe aviation.

"It is likely that either conclusion will fly in the face of the general assertion that UAP are not real and that there are no undocumented phenomena in our atmosphere," Roe continued. That should open the door, he said, to the realization that there's no good reason to discard outright the possibility that extraterrestrial visitation has occurred and may be occurring.

"Physics is leading to new and potentially paradigm shifting understandings about the nature of our universe and its physical properties," Roe said. "These understandings may point the way towards an acceptance of the probability of interstellar travel and communication by spacefaring races."

Sacred cows to the slaughter

As UFO debunker Robert Sheaffer's web site proclaims, he's "skeptical to the max." He is a fellow of the Committee for the Scientific Investigation of Claims of the Paranormal and a well-known writer on the UFO scene.

Being an equal-opportunity debunker, Sheaffer notes that he refutes whatever nonsense, in his judgment, "stands in the greatest need of refuting, no matter from what source it may come, no matter how privileged, esteemed, or sacrosanct ... sacred cows, after all, make the best hamburger."

Sheaffer told SPACE.com, in regard to the cottage industry of UFO promoters, there's a reason there are still so many snake-oil sellers.

"It's because nobody, anywhere, has any actual facts concerning alleged UFOs, just claims. That allows con-men to thrive peddling their yarns," Sheaffer said. "UFO believers are convinced that the existence of UFOs will be revealed 'any day now'. But it's like Charlie Brown and the football: No matter how many times Lucy pulls the football away-or the promised 'disclosure' fails to happen-they're dead-certain that the next time will be their moment of glory."

Trash from the past

"I would have to say that we're stuck in neutral," said Kevin Randle, a leading expert and writer on UFOs and is known as a dogged researcher of the phenomena. There's no real new research, he said, and that's "because we have to revisit the trash of the past."

Randle points to yesteryear stories, one stretching back in time to a supposed 1897 airship crash in Aurora, Texas, long proven to be a hoax by two con men-yet continues to surface in UFO circles.

Then there's the celebrated Thomas Mantell saga, a pilot that lost his life chasing a UFO in 1948. There are those that contend he was killed by a blue beam from a UFO, Randle said "even though we have known for years that the UFO was a balloon and he violated regulations by climbing above 14,000 feet without oxygen equipment. I mean, we know this, and yet there are those who believe that Mantell was killed by aliens."

Randle's advice is to the point: "We need to begin to apply rigorous standards of research ... stop accepting what we wish to believe even when the evidence is poor, and begin thinking ahead."

Paucity of physical evidence

"I've no doubt that UFOs are here to stay," said Seth Shostak, Senior Astronomer at the SETI Institute in Mountain View, California. "I'm just not convinced that alien craft are here to stay ... or for that matter, even here for brief visits.

"First, despite a torrent of sightings for more than a half-century, I can't think of a single, major science museum that has alien artifacts on display," Shostak said. "Contrast this paucity of physical evidence with what the American Indians could have shown you fifty years after Christopher Columbus first violated their sea-space. They could have shown you all sorts of stuff-including lots of smallpox-infested brethren-as proof that they were being 'visited,'" he said.

When it comes to extraterrestrial visitors in the 21st century, the evidence is anecdotal, ambiguous, or, in some cases, artifice, Shostak suggested.

Calling it "argument from ignorance", Shostak pointed to the claim that aliens must have careened out of control above the New Mexico desert simply because some classified government documents sport a bunch of blacked-out text. "How does the latter prove the former?"

Sure, the missing verbiage is consistent with a government cover-up of an alien crash landing, Shostak said. "But it's also consistent with an infinitude of other scenarios...not all of them involving sloppy alien pilots," he added.

Shostak said that it is not impossible that we could be visited. It doesn't violate physics to travel between the stars, although that's not easy to do.

"But really, if you're going to claim-or for that matter, believe-that extraterrestrials are strafing the cities, or occasionally assaulting the neighbors with an aggression inappropriate for a first date, then I urge you to find evidence that leaves little doubt among the professionally skeptical community known as the world of science."

Residue of sightings

Why is there precious little to show that world of science that UFOs merit attention?

"Obviously there is not a simple answer, but part of it is reluctance of the scientific community to support such research," explained Bruce Maccabee, regarded as a meticulous researcher and an optical physicist using those talents to study photographs and video of unexplained phenomena.

Why this reluctance?

"In my humble opinion it is largely a result of 'tradition'...tradition set by the U.S. Air Force in the early years when they publicly stated that everything was under control, they were investigating...and finding nothing that couldn't be explained," Maccabee said. 

Nevertheless, Maccabee observed, work on the phenomenon will carry on.

"UFO studies will continue until all the old cases have either been explained or admitted to being unexplainable-meaning a residue of sightings that could be ET related-and/or until people stop seeing unexplainable UFO-like events throughout the world," Maccabee concluded.
