Review: "My Bloody Valentine 3D DVD review"
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Final Destination DVD is awesome. It includes both the 2D and 3D versions. 2D should not be a problem to watch. The 3D is quite cool. It is better than the old 3D movies like Spy Kid 3D. Though it is DVD, the 3D effects stand out. It does really give me a sense of 3D in the movie. It is like the characters stand out from the background. It is quite cool.
DVD special features-Rating: 3/5
Having both 2D and 3D versions is good enough. There are some 3D movies that don't get the same treatment, they are 3D in cinema but on DVD, they are not. There are previews (7 minutes) of movies like WhiteOut, Halo Legends and advertisements. There are also deleted scenes (7 minutes). The deleted scenes are not bad, some of them show more bloody deaths and some show more talking. The best thing is that the scenes are completed, not a rough reel. Overall, a good DVD for collection.
My Bloody Valentine 3D is also quite good. I think the 3D effects are better than The Final Destination. It really gives me a sense of 3D, the characters really stand out from the background. Though the good 3D, it is a bit long, runtime of 1 hour and 41 minutes. Luckily The Final Destination is only 1 hour and 22 minutes so I get the fun of wearing the 3D glasses and see the special effects. My Bloody Valentine means you need to wear the glasses long which may be a little uncomfortable. But overall, it is still good for a 3D movie on DVD.
DVD special features-Rating: 2/5
It also has both the 2D and 3D versions which is awesome. But the real special features are meagre. The one-disc edition only contains a commentary by the director which I don't bother to listen and previews of movies such as crank 2 and some straight-to-DVD movies. It also contains the trailer of My Bloody Valentine (2 minutes). If you want special features, get the 2-disc edition.

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: 3.7/5 Review: "Terminator Salvation DVD review" -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This is not bad. It is not the worst terminator movie, I actually thought Terminator 1 is just okay. Terminator 2 and 3 are quite entertaining followed by also entertaining Salvation. MCG, the director of Charlies' Angels, takes the directing seat and turned terminator into a dark and gritty world. As what he said, he did not want the future to be a shiny world but a dark and gritty world. He is considered to have done a great job in that and creating the realistic and cool action. But his story pretty much stays the same as his other movies, a simple mindless thrill ride. The story: The future is here and the year is 2018...John Conner is a daring man who will be willing to save people from Skynet, a evil organisation which creates Terminators. A mysterious man who is supposed to be dead suddenly finds himself in the year of...

Rating: 3.7/5 Review: "Fantastic Four movie review" "A decent gritty reboot that could have been something more than what it is now." This is Josh Trank's first big budget movie and it seems he is slightly inexperienced of directing a movie of a massive scale. Fresh from directing a small budget movie, Chronicle, it seems that he is overwhelmed by whatever happened (there are rumours that Matthew Vaughn was brought in to reshoot). Nonetheless, on the whole, the reboot is an alright movie that rehashes on the tired superhero origin. It is disappointing that it is a little shallow. I think with a longer runtime, it could benefit the characters' development and flow of the story. The story: Apparently, the writers of the film said that it does not follow any story from the source material. Instead, a new origin is created. I didn't exactly know how the original source material goes (I read a couple of Fantastic Four comic books to know the tone ...
