Review: "Wolverine DVD review"
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The latest X-men movie and the first origin movie, Wolverine. Wolverine is one of the most popular X-men so I am definitely not surprised that they have made a film about him. It is entertaining at most, a straight-forward story packed with action. It is not the best X-men movie. Though it is action-packed, it just feel bloated. It is like stuffing your stomach more food when it is full. The action is not that breath-taking, it is just filled with explosion and destruction. Even X-men 3 which present the action better seems to be better than this bloated action-packed movie.
The story: The origin of Wolverine. What else do you need to know? It features scenes of Wolverine screaming or roaring like some pissed-off animal which is true. The whole time, he is pissed off with mutants like Gambit and Victor known as Sabertooth. He goes on a killing spree and so does Victor. They hack and slash and without the blood and gore, this is only a PG-13 movie. Blah blah, everything is squeezed into the 1 hour and 47 minutes runtime. Guess what? It is just bloated.
Overall: It is not bad and also not the better Marvel comic movies I have seen. It is just entertainment and that is all about it. I enjoyed X-men 3 better than this. One thing to look out for, Wolverine crying like a pussy. Now that is entertainment.

DVD special features- Rating: 2.5/5
The one-disc edition only contains two special features. One is a short docu-making of (12 minutes), it is just briefly tells about how they get about making this movie and some behind the scenes. The second and last one is some boring deleted scenes (9 minutes). They are meaningless and do not really contribute to the story and hence got deleted.

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: 4.3/5 Review: "American Made film review" "An entertaining and fun well-made film boosted by great direction and acting." Doug Liman and Tom Cruise paired up together again for a fast-paced and colorful biography on Barry Seal. American Made may not have the blockbuster action but it holds up on its own firmly with the help of a great direction by Doug. Tom Cruise is definitely the main highlight of the film and he is what made it so entertaining. The story: The pace is brisk; it takes the audience on a crazy ride from the start and never slows down. Though it never felt boring, sometimes I felt that it could have slowed down for some development. After the film ended, it seems that Doug and Tom had a clear mind on just keeping the audience as entertained as they can be. It cuts to the chase and never dwells on anything such as emotions. It moves quickly from event to event. Advantage is that I was not bored at all. Disadvantage is that it felt li...

Best and Worst movies of 2011 2011 is over! It sees many good movies so it was kind of tricky to list the best 4 movies of 2011. It had been a good year for movies. Let's see if 2012 is any better. 1.Transformers: Dark of the Moon Rating: 4.5/5 It is one of the best 3D movie ever. It has cool action, great 3D and robots. It may be the final Transformers for Michael Bay. Only thing that can be improved is that rushed out ending. Other than that, it could be 2011 best action movie. 2.Sucker Punch Rating: 4.5/5 It is sad to see the critics slamming this movie. I find its presentation kind of cool and unique. The action is not bad too. Zack Synder really has a sense of cool visual which the movie a more interesting view. 3.Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Rating: 4.5/5 The end is finally here. Although it is the most action-packed movie in the franchise, I can't help but feel a little disappointed with the climax. I wanted a longer and more epic battle between Harry and Voldemo...
