Review: "Pandorum movie review"
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
As it is from the producers of Resident Evil, you can see some similiar things between them. Pandorum's story plot may not be very original but it does its intensity and suspense good. I had fun with this intense non-stop action movie with its suspense.

The story: It starts straight to the action. Bower wakes up from his pod and found that he may be alone. But sooner, he knows he is not alone. Yep, he is definitely not alone in the big ship. Things unwanted starts to appear. What is it? The adventure around the ship will start seeing some mild twists. Action and chase scenes are intense with its unusual soundtrack. It choose not to be the creepy soundtrack that most horror movies are using. It is filled with non-stop shock scenes and sometimes that gets annoying. Bower walks, BOOM! What the hell! He turns around. Five minutes later, he walks and see something and BOOM! What the hell! I was not that shocked but more of being annoyed. They are cheap scare scenes.

Overall: It is a pretty good intense thriller that is worth to watch it in cinema as you feel the darkness around you but obviously, it does not really have the claustrophobia feeling. "This is an order, motherfucker!"

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...
