Review: "2012 movie review"
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2012 is a thrilling and emotional ride. The CGI is the one that stands out. The detruction scenes are quite realistic, destroying everything in sight and leaving nothing spared. Acting including the children's is also quite good. 2012 is 2 and an half hour of pure destruction and I enjoyed seeing it.
The story: It starts off a little slow but when it comes to the second destruction/disaster, the pace becomes faster due to the thrilling escapes from the disasters. It is a about a family struggling to survive from the natural and huge desturctions. They meet some other characters. The usual plot in a disaster movie. Though the CGI of the destructions are good, some of the emotional scenes are good as well. The music goes well especially during the emotional scenes. Enjoy seeing countries being smashed up! HA HA! Bring out the little kid in you...
Overall: Yep, it is thrilling and emotional. Even if you don't like the lame plot, you would at least enjoy the fantastic and amazing destructions. If you like emotional and great CGI scenes, you are in for a big treat. If you like disaster movies, you would enjoy this too. If you hate lame plot including big goofs or mistakes, you may not enjoy this mindless CGI feast. Well, that is 2012 for you. Sleep in fear.

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...
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...
Rating: 4.3/5 Review: "American Made film review" "An entertaining and fun well-made film boosted by great direction and acting." Doug Liman and Tom Cruise paired up together again for a fast-paced and colorful biography on Barry Seal. American Made may not have the blockbuster action but it holds up on its own firmly with the help of a great direction by Doug. Tom Cruise is definitely the main highlight of the film and he is what made it so entertaining. The story: The pace is brisk; it takes the audience on a crazy ride from the start and never slows down. Though it never felt boring, sometimes I felt that it could have slowed down for some development. After the film ended, it seems that Doug and Tom had a clear mind on just keeping the audience as entertained as they can be. It cuts to the chase and never dwells on anything such as emotions. It moves quickly from event to event. Advantage is that I was not bored at all. Disadvantage is that it felt li...
