Review: "Kamen Rider Den-O: Final Countdown movie review"
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
There are rumours that this would be the final movie for Den-O. But now, it seems to have a fourth movie featuring Den-O and Decade. Whatever it is, Final Countdown is the third movie for Den-O. I like this one better than the other two. The first one is quite entertaining but it is quite short. It only clocks around 1 hour. The second one is longer but it is a little boring. Clocking around 1 hour and 20 minutes, the pace is not very fast and this one has the least action out of the three movies. It has only two major action sets. The first one has around three action sets. The third one has three major action sets and the music is epic (I could hardly hear the music from the other two)
The story: Kamen rider movies basically have the same plotline. And it is always the good prevailing the bad. This movie also has not much of a story. It is just how the good prevail the bad. Kids will enjoy the action sets, the best the Kamen rider movies can do. Sparks fly when weapons hit armours. I enjoyed this cheesy movie and the rest. I don't have time to watch the whole series so the best I could do is to watch this 1 hour and 23 minutes movie. It is quite entertaining but it is not the best Kamen Rider movie I have seen. Kamen Rider the next will take that spot. It is first time seeing Kamen Rider being dark, mature and violent.
Overall: This is strictly for Kamen Rider fans. Those who are not Kamen rider fans, they will find this boring and cheesy and would not understand the story. This year is Kamen Rider decade movie.

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...
