Review: "Gantz: Perfect Answer movie review"

I did not catch the first one in cinema therefore I decided to support the last movie. Gantz: Perfect Answer is indeed worth to watch in cinema although it is in only three cinemas. This can be compared to Daeth Note 2 which is also the last movie in the two-parter series (Not counting L changes the world). The suspense and thrills are maxed out like Death Note 2 does. This also features some cool action scenes.

The story: It continues where the first movie last stops. In the beginning, there is a quick recap for the first one and even features the names of the main characters. It is good for those who have forgotten what's happening as this took a long time to be released in cinema. The thrills and suspense makes the movie fast-paced. Action fans have to wait for a while for the real major action scene which involves a train. The other and last major action scene is a lenghtly chase and ends with a cool sword fight scene. Though this is not as action-packed as the first one, its action scenes have great chereography and stunts and lenghtly. I think most of the action scenes last about 10 minutes each. Music is surprisingly epic. Acting is alright. Some of the actors and actresses do not really express well but are still okay.

Overall: It is a great action japanese movie. The Gantz live-action series can be considered one of the best action movie in Japan. It is a good series following Death Note and the 20th Century Boys triology. I hope there will be more action japanese blockbusters series.

Rating: 3.6/5 Review: "Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D season 2 TV review" Season 2 has improved greatly. Starting straight from the massive cliffhanger in season 1, season 2 is more tense, action-packed, darker and better paced. I think season 1 took its time to introduce its characters before diving into the action. The time is spread out to individual characters' development. More twists and turns make the season a stark improvement. Episode 1-22: Skye has discovered her powers and is learning how to cope with it. Meanwhile, the team has its problems. Coulson seems to be hiding secrets. In fact, everybody has secrets. More powers are unleashed. It is a little surprising that Marvel is bold enough to veer the series to a darker tone by amping up the number of deaths and more violence. The whole season has little humour and moves at a brisk pace without really pausing. As the tension between human and superhuman increases by each episode, it is an exciting season that w
Rating: 3.5/5 Review: "From Vegas To Macau 2 movie review" "Loads of fun in Wong Jing's bigger sequel." Wong Jing is back with more madness, action, explosion and a longer runtime. As every sequel tries to top its original in every way, From Vegas To Macau 2 is no different. Lots of explosion, lots of wacky humour and more CGI, if these are your entertainment, the movie will do you no wrong. From the opening gun fight to the CGI climax, the story is kept brisk to keep your attention in check. The story: Chow Yun-fat is back as the titular gambler, Ken, with the magic hand. This time, the movie exaggerates his skills with CGI poker cards until it almost becomes a fantasy. But that's to be expected in a Wong Jing's movie. This time, the location is shifted to Thailand where Mark (Nick Cheung), an accountant in a money-laundering syndicate, DOA, is chased by Interpol and DOA. Ken has to save him and help his protege, Vincent (Shawn Yue). Wong Ji
Rating: 4/5 Review: "The Hobbit: An unexpected Journey 3D movie review" This is the highly anticipated prequel to The Lords of the Ring movies. As a stand alone movie, it does pretty well to engage audiences with its great special effects and fantasy creatures. I cannot compare this with the first trilogy as I can hardly remember it although I will catch it later. But as it seems, this is more lighter than the serious first trilogy. Sure this has its fair share of intense battles but this is more light-heart. The story: With a runtime of 2 hours and 49 minutes, you can be sure that this will take its sweet time to get the adventure going which is true. After a brief action-packed introduction, the movie moves slower. The first half and hour sees a hobbit's unwillingness to go for an adventure as the other dwarves plan to steal their treasures and take what is rightfully theirs. After the hobbit agrees, the fantasy adventure starts and following it are dangers.
