Review: "Ip Man 2 movie review"
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
After watching the underwhelming Iron Man 2, I saw this and unlike Iron Man 2, this is better than the first movie. The fighting scenes are cooler than the first one. The fight between Donnie and Sammo is cool though a little short, I would like to see them fight longer. Surprisingly, this is more action-packed than the first one, I thought this would be a little melodrama as Ip Man is having a hard time in Hong Kong.
The story: It takes place after the first movie, Ip Man moves to Hong Kong and finds it hard to make a living. He wants to teach Wing Chun but he has to defeat several masters from Wushu schools. That is the first half of the 1 hour and 48 minutes movie. The last half is about Ip Man and his chinese people trying to defeat an English boxer. Yeah, the story may seem generic but the fighting scenes are worth the watch. I feel that the fight scenes help to enhance this movie better.
Overall: It is worth to watch this cinema as it is good to see the fast fight scenes on big screen. Ip Man fans will catch this. Action fans who don't know about Ip Man should also watch the series. Hopefully this will do well to get a sequel. If there is another sequel, Bruce Lee will definitely be inside.

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...
