Review: "Transporter 2 DVD review"
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It is fast-paced with some cool action scenes.
DVD special features-3.4/5
It has long deleted and extended scenes (20 minutes) which show some background information, small details and more action. It is worth a watch. The making of (4 minutes) is a short one with the usual interviews and behind the scenes. Nothing special and it is short for any interesting information. Surprisingly, the featurette on the music (10 minutes) is longer than the making of. I have no idea what the eng dub version is talking about. The over-lapping of the english dub on the original french version is horrible. It does not follow the mouths. Lastly, there are previews (3 minutes), one is on Night Watch.

Review: "Universial Soldiers Regeneration DVD review"
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It is a decent straight-to-DVD movie. I have not watched the other movies but I can roughly understand the story. The Universial Soldiers are like cyborgs. They cannot feel anything and only follow orders by their owners. And they will do whatever way to complete their missions. What happens when two Universial Soldiers fight each other? The fight scenes are brutal and the action is decent which make the movie decent. As this is just a non-stop action movie.

The hell with this DVD. The USA has special features but the local DVD does not. It does not even include previews of other movies.

Review: "The Box DVD review"
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Box has an interesting plot. A couple receive a box from a mysterious man. Once the button on the box is pushed, two things happen. Some one in the world they don't know will die. Second, they will receive a million dollars. There are some meanings behind this like the greed of humans. There are some mild twists. The movie is intense at times and sometimes, it turns to the weird direction where nothing make sense. But the plot engages me with its twists and turns.

Again, no special features. The distributor, Scorpio East sucks. It does not even bother to have trailers included in bare-bones DVDs. It also distributes the bare-bones Universial Soldiers DVD. How disappointing.

Review: "Law Abiding Citizen DVD review"
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It is intense and has suspense but when it comes to the ending, it is disappointing. The ending is the bad part of the movie. The ending is so common, it is nothing special and that is why it is disappointing. The acting is convincing. The characters are a bit wack but in the end, they got what they derserve.

Nothing. Nothing and Nothing. Crap DVD.

Rating: 4.5/5 Review: "Man of Steel movie review" With all the hype from the trailers, I must say this is what it looks to be expected. I have to say that this is the biggest and epic superhero movie yet. This treats destructions like child's play. It is also the most explosive superhero movie. There are so much explosions that they could literally make you exhausted from watching all those. Although this is directed by Zack Snyder, this does not have much of his trademark except the visuals. His slo-mo trademark is not featured. Instead, the action is rapid fast. Man of Steel is a good entertainment with exciting action scenes and visuals but at the same, a somehow touching human drama. The story: We get an extended opening scene on Krypton where Kal-El is just born. However the planet is going to be destroyed with General Zod adding to the problem. To save Kal-El, he has to be sent to another planet known as Earth. What is interesting about the movie that it do...

Rating: 3.5/5 Review: Taken DVD review Taken is a new action movie that makes the audiences want more hard and gritty action flicks. I can see that now. Taken has the drama (Yawn!) and the realistic action (Like the Borne movies). Clocking at only 1 and a half hour, the movie starts off slow with drama. After half and hour pass, it goes straight to the intensity and non-stop realistic action. I don't like the slow start. As it is only 1 and a half hour, it do not have the time for slow characters' development. It should drive straight to the action, unless it clocks around 2 hours. The story: It seems to be the usual kidnapping movies where the bad guys kidnap some random girl/boy and ask for ransom. But in this, they kidnap young women to become sex-slaves. A father of a kidnapped daughter is enraged and goes to Paris where his daughter is. "I will find you! I will kill you!" He says to the bad guys. He starts punching and kicking people to hell. He kicks men's b...

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...
