Rating: 3.7/5 Review: "Pirates of the Carribean 4 3D movie review" I enjoyed the big Gore's Pirates trilogy and was not sure how the franchise can still continue. When Rob Marshall came aboard on directing the fourth outing, I was not that interested. Even when I watched the trailers of it. But the fact that it is shot in 3D made me curious as to whether to see this in 3D. I seldom see action movies being shot in 3D, it is only the horror movies which get the treatment. I must say that it is fun and entertaining. The story: Captain Jack is back. Of course, he must be back. He was one of the reasons that made the trilogy more watchable with his witty jokes. Characters wise is okay. But the mermaids are a bit of under-used. This is the first Disney movie which is rated for sensuality. Not that it should be a big fuss but it is almost clean except some almost revealing shots of the mermaids. That's it. There is not even a scene where characters kiss passionately like in

Rating: 3.9/5 Review: "Tron Legacy Blu-Ray DVD review" Tron Legacy is released on Blu-Ray and 3-D Blu-Ray and unfortunately I do not have a 3-D TV and player so I can't watch it in 3-D. The 2-D version is also quite good, with the picture clear and sharp. The epic music on the other hand isn't what I have heard in cinema. Maybe because the TV speakers are not loud enough. The good thing about this Blu-Ray set is that it comes with a 3-D Blu-Ray disc so I may view it in future. Blu-Ray DVD special features- 3.3/5 Sadly, it is not really packed with special features. There are only four featurettes that are related to the movie. Launching the Legacy (10 minutes) is the pre-production the movie and the crew discussing how to upgrade the movie. Visuallising Tron (11 minutes) and Installing the cast (12 minutes) are like the making of the movie where behind the scenes and interviews are shown. Disc roars (3 minutes) shows that the cheering and booing for the game in the mo

Rating: 3.7/5 Review: "Thor movie review" The first Marvel comic movie for this year. Captain America and X-Men: First Class will be the following Marvel comic movies for the year 2011. I didn't had much expectations for this although this is a superhero movie. When I watched the trailers, it seems like it is like another X-Men origin: Wolverine which is a loud movie full of action but with no real substance. It turns out I am right. The story is pretty straight-forward, the action though is less action-packed than Wolverine but the CGI and music are not bad. The story: The first half and hour shows Thor in his fantastical planet, Asgard. For action fans, they won't have to wait long for the first major action scene which is in the first half and hour. Thor and his friends smashing some big bad guys and one impressive scene where Thor smashes the floor with his powerful hammer. After the first half and hour, Thor is sent to the human world. Blah blah, three people hel
