EPISODE 8: MOVIES AND RATINGS

Seen a couple of movies this holidays so i thought of giving them my own ratings and reviews so here i go..

In no particular order of when i watched them:

Enchanted: Starring Patrick Dempsey from Grey's Anatomy and an unknown slut from god knows where, this fairytale happily ever after mumbo-jumbo is not for me seriously coz i find the plot all too familiar and predictable. Considering i was an hour plusplus late to meet up with my friend to catch the movie (imagine in the cinema sitting next to a time bomb), maybe i was too preoccupied and not concentrating on the movie thus affecting my opinion of the movie. And dragons climbing on top of a building reminds me too much of kingkong.

3 out of 5 stars.


The Golden Compass: Nicole Kidman and Daniel Craig mixed together supposed to create a BANG! no? The disapooinment of the holidays, this movie is all too similar and plot was too hmmsoikindagetit kinda theory where you dont require much intelligence to understand it. The highlight in the movie, polar bears in heavy armored protective shields in battle and the Serafina witch thing which is like one of the things you fantasize about when u think of pretty witches.

3 out of 5 stars


Warlords: Set in 19th century China, this battle compact movie is pretty intensed with all the bloodshed and brotherhood crap and Imperial China against the Taiping Revolution. Consider a cast of non chinese speaking actor (Takeshi something). And oh, it was NC16 so yea i kinda pass through the gates guiltyly.hahas and i was sitting next to a obviously MIC (made-in china) lady who was smiling throughout the movie especially during the battle parts. Weird or just plain crazy people still exist ya.

4 out of 5 stars.


I am Legend: Imagine Will Smith in 2012 earth alone in ground zero (new york) coz some idiot created a cure for cancer that turns and mutated to be a deadly virus thats turns humans into disgusting monsters. And i just love it seriously to be honest with coz its not those really straight-forward crap you get all the time. And oh, its a very nail-biting and adrenaline rushing kinda movie. And Will Smith has the body all boys fantasize about, a part in the movie which makes the people go awwhh..

4.5 out of 5 stars.


The BEE Movie: Classic children's cartoon movie about the bee colony, pretty ok plot predictable but its kinda not for me anymore. I remember those times i had to save up just to watch The Wild Thornberry movie which is also a cartoon crap but now i realize i have no desire to watch this kinda shows no more. But all in all, it was an ~~ movie.

2.5 stars out of 5


The Gameplan: This movie is the kinds where you dont wanna watch but someone forced you to watch. Haiz i watched it with Syazwan so it was pretty ok with The Rock being a daddy and all this shit but it was a typical macho daddy-o kind of movie. But i think it was money well-spent and a rather comedic movie though i still think it could have been better.

3 out of 5 stars.
