Jack Bruno (Dwayne Johnson) is a cab driver in Las Vegas, who is picking up and dropping off passengers to the UFO convention at the Planet Hollywood Casino and Hotel. One of his passengers is Dr. Alex Friedman (Carla Gugino), a failed scientist who is giving speeches about legitimate scientific theories of UFOs and outer space.

The next day Bruno is approached by two large men telling him that Wolff would like to see him. After fighting them, Bruno drives off, later noticing two children, Sara (AnnaSophia Robb) and Seth (Alexander Ludwig) sitting in the back seat of the cab. They tell him they need to go to a certain destination and are willing to pay all they have ($15,000) to get there. They lead him to a run down house in the middle of nowhere. Meanwhile, Major Henry Burke (Ciaran Hinds) is searching for information on the two aliens that landed some days earlier.

When they arrive at the house, the children tell Bruno that they will be re-united with their relatives soon. Before leaving Bruno hears a crash coming from the house. He is startled to find them hiding behind a couch. Though grateful for his concern, the children tell him they must continue their journey without him, as they can trust no one. Nevertheless, Bruno decides to follow them, which leads him to the basement of the house. There the kids are pursued and attacked by a strange creature as they retrieve an object in a plant. They manage to escape from this creature.

When leaving they are attacked by a "Siphon", a creature built to destroy a certain target. The Siphon pursues them until it causes a crash of his spaceship into a train, the creature survives, though wounded. The trio eventually find themselves in a small town, Stony Creek, where they encounter Tina the waitress (Tia from the original movie) and the sheriff (Tony from the original movie), now both grown and settled in the town to which they escaped in the original movie. The children explain to Bruno that they are aliens from a distant planet, who are sent to Earth by their parents because the government of their dying planet intends to attack and invade Earth so that their kind may live on there. They also explain that the object they obtained at the house contains the results of an experiment which their parents set up. The research from this experiment will save their planet without having to attack and invade Earth. However their planet's military prefer the idea of invading Earth and sent the Siphon assassin to stop them. They are next pursued by government agencies trying to retrieve the children for experiments.

They are joined by Dr. Friedman at the UFO Expo. With help of one of Dr. Friedman's friends they discover that the ship they are searching has been relocated to a government base at Witch Mountain. While preparing to leave the UFO Expo the Siphon arrives, it prepares to attack but Sara uses her powers to knock him through a wall. The group,now including Dr. Friedman, after evading the pursuing government agents eventually arrive at Witch Mountain. At first the children are captured along with Bruno and Friedman. Nevertheless the two humans escape and come to rescue the kids. The Siphon causes a distraction by attacking the base. They manage to free the children and reach their ship. By running the Siphon over they escape but the Siphon hangs on and gets on board. Bruno and Seth battle the Siphon in the lower sections of the ship, unmasking him in the fight. Finally, Bruno defeats the evil alien by knocking him into the ships engine. The kids drop Jack and Alex off and after a tearful goodbye, they head back to their ship, but give Bruno and Alex a device that will allow the kids to always find them. And Sara gives Jack the power to use his brain to the mind reading ability.

During the end credits, Bruno and Dr. Friedman (now a couple) are speaking at a UFO convention about their new successful book called "Race to Witch Mountain". The last scene shows them driving off in a car Bruno dreamed of getting honestly as he had mentioned to Friedman earlier—a Mustang similar to that driven by Steve McQueen in Bullitt. This mind-blowing event stuns the entire audience, causing them to comment aloud. As they are about to leave, the device the kids gave Bruno before they left goes off, indicating that they may be returning.

The Cleopatra

Two generals most had the power in the Roman empire, Julius Caesar and Markus Antonius, to yield to Cleopatra. He became the legend, menginspirasi he wrote the book, the drama, and dozens of operas. So many people felt so many people knew Cleopatra, without really knew who and how the queen's Egyptian noose in fact. Cleopatra not Egyptians. He the descendants of the Ptolemy dynasty that came from Macedonia. The Ptolemy dynasty had the power in Egypt for three centuries after the Egyptian subjugation by Alexander the Great. Cleopatra was pharaoh Ptolemic first that studied the Egyptian language. He also pharaoh finally Egypt, because after his death, Egypt became one of the provinces in the Roman empire.
according to the history note that was made by the Greek writer, Plutarch (that also wrote the story lived Archimedes) in his book of Life of Anthony was depicted by Cleopatra “benar-correctly did not record, outside biasa” and “kecantikan him not duanya”. However from Cleopatra's picture that was gotten to ten currency coins that were made in his government's period, be difficult to say Cleopatra pretty. His neck was fat, his nose was bent, his ears were long, and his chin stuck up. High his body then only 1,5 metre …. So, what made Cleopatra be like this enchanted? Cleopatra's beauty was di’dalam’, not in tampilan ‘luar’ him. He could speak in nine languages. His brain was sharp. His charisma was strong. His policy was astonishing. He was educated high, and had extraordinary grandeur since early. Plutarch wrote “Percakapan him captured extraordinary … ” and “Perbincangan him tempted. The character is, that merasuk in his action like that enchanted was not said. The sound from his voice was sweet … “. He was so interesting, so as “Plato acknowledged four praise kinds, but Cleopatra had thousands.
Cleopatra was not pretty, but he succeeded in controlling the heart of two people who most had the power in his period, Julius Caesar and Markus Antonius. Caesar said, “Tidak had blood in vena him, apart from sun blood. Hathor that was sweet remained in the eyes and mortar lututnya”. Cleopatra inherited the Egyptian kingdom that was bankrupt. Sebegitu the bankruptcy, until could not print the gold coin, and only made the coin from metal that was not so good his quality. That was the reason often was not found the coin with the picture himself. He built troops, made Egypt strong, maintained peacefulness in negri him, and the success pitted opponents of the strength against each other so as to wage war their peers personally. The Egyptian capital, Alexandria, was the city that most advanced in the world at the time. The city had the health service, the big library, the extraordinary lighthouse, and was a centre of the culture and interesting knowledge the person from all over the world.
Unfortunately, forensic knowledge can not show to us Cleopatra's face. Napoleon seized much treasure from France, including the case of the mummy Cleopatra. Most treasure was returned to Egypt, but the case of the mummy Cleopatra was unintentionally left. During the 1940 's, the French workers found the case of his mummy, and threw his contents to the place of the disposal …. Cleopatra's beauty not in tampilan physical him, but as the icon in the love legend, then the painters, the writer of the drama, and the manufacturer must have of the film put forward Cleopatra that was pretty lovely. The film “Cleopatra” that was made during 1963 put forward the actress was prettiest in the period, Elizabeth Taylor. The film that was made beforehand, like “Antony and Cleopatra”, give Cleopatra's role to Florence Lawrence, while Helen Gardner performed Cleo in the film “Cleopatra, The Quin of Egypt”. Elizabeth, Florence, and Helen were not wrong still was actresses was prettiest in his day. Apparently, the world still believe in that the woman that enchanted must had paras pretty lovely …
For the women who were not lucky to be blessed with the slim body slender, sparkling white people, and the face shone like the full moon, not need to restless. Imitate Cleopatra. Be the clever woman, wise, and had personal grandeur. Certainly the world will be on our hands …..

THE FAST AND THE FURIOUS 4

Relations between Dominic Toretto (Vin the Diesel) and Brian O’Conner (Paul Walker) quite unique. On the one hand Dom really hated Brian because he was police that menyamar became the racing driver to arrest the gang of the robber who was led by Dom, but on the other side, Brian could also rescue his life several times. After trying to move further away from Brian, finally fate brought Dom returned to Los Angeles where he must meet Brian again. However this time came back Dom was forced to have to establish the work was the same as the person who was hated by him this because the two of them faced the same enemy. There was no choice for Dom and Brian apart from trusting each other to complete their personal mission was their respective. Brian was assigned to infiltrate into the network of the distributor of narcotics named Antonio Braga (John Ortiz). Brian found the gap when Braga looked for an uncivilised racing driver to be made the courier. Unfortunately, Dominic also aimed at the same position although in fact Dominic's motivation was pure revenge. Dominic wanted to avenge the Letty death (Michelle Rodriguez) Because of the Braga conduct. A film had genre racing could remain until the fourth sequel might be still being an achievement. But could be also the launching of this fourth part as the redeemer from two episodes beforehand that failed. This was seen from the player's composition that was the same as the first part that threw the genre of the film racing last 2001. Acknowledged or not, 2 FAST 2 FURIOUS and THE FAST AND THE FURIOUS: Tokyo DRIFT indeed failed to occupy the level that was the same as the first part. Two films appeared to lose taring when compared with the episode initially. The topic that began to be felt monotonous and the fight sequence that still did not pull could be made the failure scapegoat of this film in the market. But apparently the reality did not make Universal Studios surrendered and emerged the fourth part with original lineup this. But although being regarded as the correction by this fourth part, apparently same efforts too much were not successful. The menu that was served also still not far from three parts beforehand. Finally, the studio only could hope that the genre interested persons of the film racing still enough and was prepared to spend money to watch this film. The plot was not strong enough to make this film be something that was deserving to be recalled while acting of his players also was classified as the standard then. The visual matter indeed still quite interesting although in fact did not have something that was completely new. If you passed three parts beforehand, possibly did not have mistakenly you tried FAST & FURIOUS this was the reverse if you followed franchise this from the beginning, will not be unfortunate if you passed this one. Except, of course, if you want to recalled the past saw the appearance of Vin Diesel and Paul Walker.
