Review: "Harry Potter and the deathly hallows: part 1 Blu-Ray DVD review"

It is the best Harry Potter movie yet. It is a solid harry potter movie. It is more action-packed and intense than the previous ones which is a surprise as the harry potter movies are not famous for action scenes and this delivers though the action scenes are short.

The story: I find it intense from the start of the movie to the credits rolling. The characters seem suspicious and they are capable of doing anything which make the movie more intense. Harry and his friends are on the run from Vodemort and his evil helpers. Every where they hide, troubles find them. And that is where the director crafts his intense action scenes like harry on his narrow escape from the bad guys. The action scene set in the forest is frenetic and intense but it is too shakey to see the action properely. The acting is good, the trio has believable reationships and emotions. The music is good and epic.

Overall: I can't wait to see the epic showdown of Harry and Vodemort. Part 2 might even be better than this one. It is not a disappointment as I was disappointed with the last movie, the half-blooded prince with its lack of action and intensity.

Blu-Ray DVD special features- 3.5/5

The first disc of the 2 disc edition Blu-Ray DVD features focus points which are small featurettes which can be played all at one (19 minutes). The other feature is a maximum mode which I do not bother watching because the movie needs to be played with it. The second disc has about 1 hour worth of bonus features. There are deleted scenes which are not that good. The worthy feature is the sneak peak behind the second part of the movie which is about 3 minutes of new footage of it. The rest of the runtime is the featurettes; making of. The usual stuff. They touch on some of the important scenes in the movie like the multiple Harry Potters and the forest chase scene. There is a slightly interesting featurette on some of the cast members playing golf...which has nothing to do with the movie. There is the making of the music. Not bad stuff.

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: "G-Force movie review" -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- It is not all that bad, at least it tries its to be an enjoyable family movie flick. But as usual, Disney movies now are getting haters around the world due to its popular teens and live-action animals-talking movies. So now, when they see a live-action Disney movie whether it has teenagers singing or animals yapping away, they would be put off immediately. Whatever it is, G-force is fun with 3-D. Kids would like the cute animals coming near them. The story: G-Force has a simple story which is also not creative. But that it is not what kids want, they would want to see action blazing through their ways. As this being a Jerry Bruckheimer production, you can expect at least a car chase and some explosion but only more mild. Trevor Rabin did a good work in creating epic music. Though a kid movie, expect some rude humour but also at the same ti...

Rating: 3.9/5 Review: "John Carter movie review" Unfortunately, I didn't catch it in 3D. I wasn't sure of how the post-conversion would turn out. Back to the movie. To tell the truth, before John Carter opened, I was not sure if I should give the movie a try. The posters are boring and uninspired and trailers are not really exciting. It was only the week that it opened that I decided to catch it in cinema. I am glad that it is actually a fun and entertaining movie that is worth to watch in cinema. The story: It does pack a lot during the 132 minutes runtime. And it does feel slightly bloated. But it is still fun entertainment. The movie starts with a short action scene on Mars and moves on to John Carter on the human world. Then the next 20-25 minutes show John on Earth. So Sci-Fi will have to wait a while to see John on Mars. The story is simple to understand but the number of characters may confuse. It is sort of a chase movie. The action scenes while short are many...
