Movie Review: Legion

Image source: http://www.celebritywonder.com
Didn’t expect this will be nicer than Universal Soldier… really nicer compare to Universal Soldier. heheh….
Overall, the main actor – Archangel Michael (Paul Bettany) not that handsome/leng cai… and his scripts also very little… he didn’t speak much… but.. he did a very nice act in here…
I don’t like Lucas Black… don’t like the way he talked.. like the tongue stick to the mouth like that..not nice… not yeng enough also.. when he acted in Tokyo Drift I already didn’t like him… now… lucky his screen time was also limited
The action part… very nice..lots of action in here… and it was colourful.. unlike Universal Soldier all grey scale one… see oso not excited
Anyway, should watch this compared to Universal Soldier
Thumbs Up for Legion!

Movie Review: Universal Soldier: A New Beginning

Image source: http://www.ram-ent.com.my/movieUniversalSoldier.html
Saw this movie is available in cinema.. so decided to drop Legion and watch it first…
Turned out… I think I will like Legion more even thou I haven’t watched Legion
Well.. reason being, the whole picture is in grey scale… not much colour… so boring… then Jean-Claude Van Damme’s fighting skills like kinda slow already… probably he is really old and his movement is no longer so active… so… it doesn’t really show his skills much… and he doesn’t have much dialog in this movie…
As for the fighting part… erm…. quite violent also lor… really can see the blood spilling all over =___=||| a bit gross
Overall the story is not bad. Not much of ang mo style..more like international screen.. lol… cuz half of the conversations were in French/Spanish/don’t-know-what-language
There will be sequel for this movie… which sucks as well… unless they can come out a better story line
I give a B… Not really a must-watch movie… but is alright to watch it
Synopsis:
The militant Islamist Chechen Basayev abducts the children of the President and takes control of Chernobyl, threatening to unleash a radioactive cloud unless his demands are met. Luc Deveraux (Van Damme), now a Universal Soldier again, joins a new team of UniSols secretly held in deep storage. Their mission: retake Chernobyl and disable explosives that will unleash radioactive clouds. Luc discovers that one of the reactivated Universal Soldiers is a clone of his old, homicidal Sergeant, Andrew Scott (Lundgren). He also must face the NGU, the next generation in the UniSol biotechnology.

Movie Review: Avatar 3D

Image source: http://www.celebritywonder.com
I know I’m outdated. This is like two weeks ago’s movie. But I just watched this today. lol. Really never thought of watching it. But since there were so many good reviews, so… just went to watch lo.
And it must be in 3D. lol. 3D sure better than normal 2D one ma.
I can only say: WOOOOWWWWWWWWWWW!!! The effects and actions were soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo great! And the story was also so amazing. Though it was around 3 hours show, you couldn’t feel how the time flew…
Really a very good movie for the year 2009. Niceeee….
Synopsis:
“Avatar” is an emotional journey of redemption and revolution. The story tells of a wounded ex-marine, who thrust unwillingly into an effort to settle and exploit an exotic planet rich in bio-diversity, and eventually crosses over to lead an indigenous race in a battle for survival. Thus, combining the elements of massive spectacle and intimate character that made James Cameron’s “Titanic” the highest grossing film of all time.

Movie Review: Sherlock Holmes

Image source: http://www.celebritywonder.com
I didn’t really have any expectation on this movie, except, it has Jude Law and Robert Downey JR. LOL. I bet everyone went to watch this movie cuz of them.I’m one of them. *wink*
The story line not that interesting. Just normal Sherlock Holmes investigation. The explanation on the investigation also very fast.
What I really like is that Jude Law and Robert Downey JR were two very good actors. You can really feel that they are both very good brothers. They acted it out so naturally and gracefully. Bravo! This is also a very funny movie. The jokes are really funny.
Well, for those who haven’t watch, don’t watch it with expectation. Watch it without expectation will make you feel the movie is nicer. lol.
Synopsis:
After finally catching serial killer and occult “sorcerer” Lord Blackwood, legendary sleuth Sherlock Holmes and his assistant Dr. Watson can close yet another successful case. But when Blackwood mysteriously returns from the grave and resumes his killing spree, Holmes must take up the hunt once again. Contending with his partner’s new fiancée and the dimwitted head of Scotland Yard, the dauntless detective must unravel the clues that will lead him into a twisted web of murder, deceit, and black magic – and the deadly embrace of temptress Irene Adler.

Movie Review: The Storm Warrior II

Image source: www.88news.net
Heard like 3 bad comments on this movie before I went to watch it… but that time I already got my tickets… so… have to watch it anyway…
Turned out… quite a disappointment … the really nice part is the first 30 minutes and the last 30 minutes… so the middle 1 hour was actually a waste of time…
The first 30 min: the part Nameless & Lord Godless (Simon Yam) fighting was interesting…hmm..impressive… as it was the best part you could find in the movie…
The middle part: The most boring part… on how Wind (Ekin Cheng) turned into a devil and Storm (Aaron Kwok) changed to be a better warrior… and that two ladies in the movie – Chor Chor and Dream (Charlene Choi) … don’t have much screen on them… and the whole movie was on fighting…then Lord Godless (Simon Yam) just died without fighting much with Wind and Storm… >.< He died by being frozen to death and fell to the floor and smashed into pieces like glasses… @#$@%^&**$## like that also can… >.< then hor… the most ridiculous part was the part Lord Godless’ son (Nicholas Tze) went to kill all civilians… they used comic effects… OMFG! So ugly and no style … =___=|||
The last 30 min: the part Wind (Ekin Cheng) and Storm (Aaron Kwok) fighting was interesting…
The ending: Storm (Aaron Kwok) died… OMFG! So lame… T.T.. the story ended just like that… !@#%&^**&%%##@# … then Lord Godless’ son (Nicholas Tse) also didn’t get any punishment.. >.<
Eventually, the starting was really excited… but it went draggy… then the ending sucks… became not nice…
I don’t watch Chinese movie anymore since 1 or 2 years ago… cuz Missy doesn’t understand AND there weren’t much chinese movies that were worth the watch… I thought The Storm Warrior II woulded be nice… manatau =__=||| What has happened to HK movies?
So much disappointment… tho I tried not to have any expectation … but it just sucks big time… Gosh!
Synopsis:
Japanese evil warlord Lord Godless desired to conquer China. He imprisoned a large number of martial artists and tried to make them subjugate. Among the prisoners were Cloud and the martial arts elder statesman Nameless. Wind came to the rescue. The trio was badly wounded by Lord Godless’s evil martial arts attack. Chu Chu was also knocked out when she blocked Cloud from Lord Godless’s strike. The remaining martial artists sacrificed their lives to save the trio, in the hope that the trio would beat Lord Godless one day and save the country.
Chu Chu was badly wounded and stayed unconscious. Cloud was filled with remorse and vowed to take revenge. Wind chose to take the evil way to quickly boost up his martial arts skills, so that he could protect the people. During his training, he met the girl who changed his life, Dream. Meanwhile, the troop of Lord Godless came to attack. Wind’s training was interrupted when he tried to save Dream from Lord Godless’s assault. After some killings, Wind ran away and disappeared…
Lord Godless took The Emperor in captivity and stationed his troops in Heaven Cave. Cloud arrived alone and started a combat with Lord Godless. Lord Godless had the upper hand. In the meantime, the half-evil Wind appeared and joined the battle. During the fight, they inadvertently discovered the secret of the sovereign. The real intention of Lord Godless’s invasion was related to an ancient tomb, a forbidden ground buried with the Royal family’s secret. The truth was finally revealed. At last, how would the battle end? Who would eventually rule over the country?

Movie Review: 2012
Image Source: www.collider.com
Went to watch this under company’s event @ One-Utama GSC… I cried from the start till the end *sob sob* really very touching ma… You can feel the love of parents, the love of the president to his people, the love of a stranger to someone he/she barely knows… so sad….
This is really a great movie of the year… really very nice… but I don’t like the ending.. kinda dragging a bit… hmm…. Missy even said it was ridiculous that got part of the people survived… so I told her: If everyone died, how could this movie be shown out? Sure got people survived one ma… it was to tell us there would be miracles… lol…
Are we all going to die in 2012? If you are going to die, and you knew about it, what would you do?
Me? I don’t want to die. But I don’t want to be the one survives. Knowing all my friends and family are dead is the last thing I want. So I would rather die with them than stay alive ALONE.
If I knew the day was coming, I would go to Venice. I had always wanted to go there. It is an amazing place. Peaceful and yet so historical. ![]()
Synopsis:
An epic adventure about a global cataclysm that brings an end to the world and tells of the heroic struggle of the survivors.

Movie Review: Surrogates
Image source: www.images.google.com
Suppose to watch it last week..but was too busy cuz sister just got home… and weekend I went to Langkawi… so..postponed till this week.. lol….
This movie is not like usual supposingly-nice-movie-turned-bad… it turned out to be a nice one..very creative… and interesting… the graphic and the storyline are quite interesting…
Ever wonder you will be getting a surrogate to do your daily chores? Ever wonder you can have a better looking body, better hairstyle, manicure everyday, etc etc… Do you want to have your own you to go out to the world without you leaving your house?Have you ever thought that when you met in an accident, you will feel no pain at all on you? Want such life?
If you want all these, then just get your own surrogate.. lol…
If you were given the chance to have your own surrogates, will you want it? If I were given a chance, I don’t want it! It is amazing to have another you.. but it is also creepy to have someone same face as you replacing you…. lol…
I asked Missy the same question..she has the same thought as mine.. lol… sure creepy to have another you right?
What do you think?
Synopsis:
FBI agents (Bruce Willis and Radha Mitchell) investigate the mysterious murder of a college student linked to the man who helped create a high-tech surrogate phenomenon that allows people to purchase unflawed robotic versions of themselves – fit, good looking remotely controlled machines that ultimately assume their life roles – enabling people to experience life from the comfort and safety of their own homes. The murder spawns a quest for answers for who’s real and who can you trust.

Movie – Transformers – Revenge Of The Fallen

Image source: http://images2.fanpop.com/images/photos/6500000/Transformers-Revenge-of-the-Fallen-upcoming-movies-6552054-542-800.jpg
Well…I guess that is no point for me to elaborate the story line here…cuz I bet all of you have watched it right?! Hell ya! If you haven’t, means you are kinda slow/out-to-date/not a transformers fans… lol….sorry ya….cuz this is the movie of the year 2009 and it is a must watch movie…
Erm…what I feel after I watched it on Sunday 28-Jun-2009? Ending sucks… one shot from Optimus Prime and kill The Fallen… quite bad la….and Megatron and Starscream still alive?! *sigh*…. Everyone wait for Transformers 3 la….
Overall, I feel the action is there, not much of story line, but the action really very excited. Michael Bay add in a lot of funny scenes… which makes the movie more interesting. Then have more new robots… which is nice as well…tho the whole show I can see only Optimus Prime, Bumblebee, the funny twin – Skids and Mudflaps, all the mixed up Decepticons robots… not much of the nice robots… lol…..
Megan Fox – Mikaela Banes still so hot …wow…I bet most of the guys go in and watch cuz of her….ya ya..you guys just admit it…she is hot Hot HOt HOT!!! I admit it… she is soooooooo hot and if I were a boy I would like to be Shia LaBeouf (or Sam Witwicky in the movie)….
After watched it second time… my heart still pounding for it…man this movie rocks! The transformation from car to robots is sooooooooooooooooooo interesting….nice……couldn’t find words to describe how I feel when I watched it for the second time…. well…I bought the ticket earlier with missy….and got a nice seat…..A09 A10….it was indeed a nice seat….
We both agreed that we should watch the third time….but….to save money and long term investment…I suggest to her that we should wait the original DVD out and buy that one to watch…cuz it is more worth it…and I can choose d scene I want to watch….lol….
Phew…..Conclusion….I can feel the adrenaline running through my veins when I watch this movie…Bravo to Michael Bay and his team for producing such great movie of 2009!
