Review: "Predators DVD review"

This is the 2010 version of the classic, Predator. This is the first Predator movie I have watched, Aliens VS Predator not counted. The movie starts immediately when Adrien's character realises he is dropping down in mid-air to ground. As soon as he smacked on the ground, the big and bold title Predators appears. With other mysterious characters appearing and finding themselves on a different planet, Adrien's character must try and work together to escape from the Predators' traps. During the first watch, it is kind of intense as there is the suspense of what happens next. When will those vicious Predators appear? It is not a bad action adventure thriller movie. Only thing I don't understand is why is there a rock song during the credit, it totally spoils the mood of the movie.

DVD special features- 2/5

There is a making of (10 minutes) which briefly covers the important points of the movie like setting the location, filming the stunts etc. It is not too bad as it covers some points of the movie but I wish that it is longer. Unfortunately, the rest of the making is on Blu-Ray. There is a useless motion comic (2 minutes) which tells a background story. To be honest, I am not interested. There is a commentary which obviously I won't listen to. The dvd should have deleted scenes.

Review: "Kamen Rider: Movie War Core DVD review"

I was disappointed with the action scenes in this. Yes, the action scenes are usually packed with CGI but the fighting scenes are the usual Kamen Rider's fight. The previous movie has better fighting chereography. It has wire-work. But in this, it is back to the almost no wire-work fight scenes. But the climax is more interesting as it is filled with CGI effects when the monster Kamen Rider Core appears and two Kamen Rider, W and OOO battle against it. The story is nothing much but it is splitted into three parts. First story is about how Kamen Rider Skull forms. Second is about OOO and the birth of Kamen Rider Birth. The third act is the climax. The three stories act like three episodes from the series combined to become a movie. The titles appear in the three parts. Action could have been better and story could be more engaging. I am actually tired of seeing three different parts form one movie. I prefer seeing a full lenght movie with one Kamen Rider. Other Kamen Riders can act as cameros.

DVD special features- 0/5

Barebones. The movie seems to be cut. It is only 1 and an half hour long when it is supposed to be 1 hour and 40 minutes long. Other than that, english subtitles is alright. There are some mistakes in it but it is still understandable.

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: 4.5/5 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...

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...
