Transformers review


Rating: 4.5/5

Review: "Best movie in 2007!"

I considered this as one of my best movie. Is this consider Michael Bay's best? I think so. Although, you can see his usual big and loud action with exploding things. When we first heard that Michael Bay was going to direct this movie, we all knew that it would be loud and had a lot of action. Michael displayed his action types. Exploding things come smashing and big robots chunking themselves at each others. So when you are watching this in cinema, it will be very loud. Michael made the robots' designs cool with the modern touch. Those who complain that the robots do not look like the usual cartoon, Michael made the robots to look cool, they are modern, not to look like the old cartoons.
The story is dead simple, you get a young man, Sam Witwicky falls in love with a pretty girl, Mikaela and bought a old car which transforms into Bumblebee. From there, the Decepticons chase them and Optimus Prime told them that they want the glasses which has the location of the allspark. The robots smashing each others start here.The fightings are intense, smashing and hurling at each other, it means you get to see brief moments on how the robots are fighting. The Decepticons are disappointing, most of them only come to screen at the last half and hour and do not show their true powers, I mean, they are huge and evil-looking for no reason. You will get to see Megatron fighting Optimus Prime, the longest fight. The final fight is the best but the whole movie is good with the heavy music.
This is for all, fans or not. Those who are not fans of transformers may like this too as this is not about the robots, it is the action. Those fans of action, you also will want to watch this. Worth the price of the tickets.

Rating: 4.5/5 Review: "Man of Steel movie review" With all the hype from the trailers, I must say this is what it looks to be expected. I have to say that this is the biggest and epic superhero movie yet. This treats destructions like child's play. It is also the most explosive superhero movie. There are so much explosions that they could literally make you exhausted from watching all those. Although this is directed by Zack Snyder, this does not have much of his trademark except the visuals. His slo-mo trademark is not featured. Instead, the action is rapid fast. Man of Steel is a good entertainment with exciting action scenes and visuals but at the same, a somehow touching human drama. The story: We get an extended opening scene on Krypton where Kal-El is just born. However the planet is going to be destroyed with General Zod adding to the problem. To save Kal-El, he has to be sent to another planet known as Earth. What is interesting about the movie that it do...

Rating: 3.4/5 Review: "The Spirit of Ramayana" (103 minutes) "A passable Thai horror movie with an interesting concept but weak execution." As a low-budget horror movie, it has enough entertainment values. In the recent years, there are a few strong Thai horror movies with decent production values and there are many mediocre low-budget horror movies. The Spirit of Ramayana is somewhat in the middle. It may not look that polished but its themes and concept are intriguing enough. The story: The narrative is straight forward however its editing made the movie look messy and disjointed. It is a simple story about Mintra, a young dancer who is rejected for the main role because she cannot pull off an evil and sensual side. However, a spirit helps her to unleash her dark side. On paper, it sounds like a supernatural Black Swan. It lacks the emotional depth of Black Swan as the director seems only interested in churning out cheap scares. As the plot develops fur...

Rating: 3.5/5 Review: "The Exchange" (90 minutes) "A decent fast-paced Thai heist thriller that is marred by weak action choreography and shoddy editing"  It's a low-key movie. You can hardly find information about this online when you type in its English title. Perhaps you will have better luck finding information in Thai. My curiosity piqued when I couldn't find any English review on it. Should I take the risk in watching an unknown movie? I finally decided that it wouldn't hurt buying a cheap ticket (US$2.50) to experience it. I actually enjoyed the movie but not the experience. Sure the movie has its own flaws but it is not as distracting as the badly dubbed Khmer language. The dub is emotionless and does not fit the tone of the characters. I know Thai and Khmer are two different languages but I couldn't help by being distracted with the bad lip sync throughout the whole movie. On the other hand, the movie is fast-paced enough to hol...
