Review: "Shaolin Girl DVD review"
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The spiderwick Chronicles is a fun and entertaining movie. You get to see monsters, magical creatures etc. Special effects are good, the story is simple but entertaining. The 1 hour and 35 minutes movie manages to entertain with its magical creatures, intense action scenes and evil monsters. It is worth the watch.

Yuck! Why did this entertaining movie get such crap extras? Can't the extra even be decent? The extras include a simple making of (8 minutes) and a featurette of Spiderwick Chronicles' world (7 minutes). The rest is yuck! You get to explore the creatures' design and bio. And these are all. The making of is okay and simple. I am surprised that it did not cover on the special effects. The featurette is boring and it is only for kids who can't get enough of this fantasy world. All we get is 15 minutes of extras. Disappointing.
Shaolin Girl is *yawn* but it is not that boring. It is disappointing, no real action until the last part of the movie. And even that, the fight is not good. The motion and way they fight are slow until you lose patience and say "What the hell! The story is slow and even the action is slow!" and you throw the DVD cover at the screen. "F the director! He can't even create a decent fight scene." It spends a lot of time on girl's sport and obviously the comedy is weird. There is a fat ass who likes eggs so much that he...sucks the egg yolk when the egg is cracked. Overall, it is bearable but disappointing. It cannot even deliver the action scenes.

The DVD is shit! No special features! Not only the movie is disappointing, the DVD is also disappointing. F this DVD. This thing is an outrage!

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: 4.3/5 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...
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...
