Review: "Step Up 3D movie review"
----------------------------------------------------------------
Step Up 3D's story isn't amazing but its dance moves and cool 3D contribute to the rating of 4. It've been a long time since I have watched a 3D movie; last watched 3D movie was How to train a dragon in March. There have been other 3D movies like recent The Last Airbender but the reviews for the 3D are horrible and convinced me not to watch it in 3D. The critics approve of this 3D. And yes, it is good as what they say.
With quotes like "...the 3D is the best since Avatar", you can never go wrong with this. With limbs swinging towards you, the 3D is awesome. It is so much better than Clash of the Titans 3D which barely shows you the dept of the 3D. Cool 3D aside, the story isn't anything new. The dance moves are cool and sleek that makes you wonder whether they really did them without any wires work. Some of the songs are good and the rest alright. Though the downside is that there are only three main dance battles though they are awesome. The cliche' romance plot may be slow to those who are so used to it. Plus there is a very mild twist which is predictable.
Overall: For 3D, it is worth a watch in cinema. For 2D, not so. Basically, the 3D is the one that amp the decision of watching this in cinema. The 3D is real and you do get to see dancers going near you unlike those post-production 3D movies like Clash of the Titans and The Last Airbender. Without the good 3D, I wouldn't have watched it in cinema...

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: 3.4/5 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: "The Exchange" (90 minutes) "A decent fast-paced Thai heist thriller that is marred by weak action choreography and shoddy editing"  It's a low-key movie. You can hardly find information about this online when you type in its English title. Perhaps you will have better luck finding information in Thai. My curiosity piqued when I couldn't find any English review on it. Should I take the risk in watching an unknown movie? I finally decided that it wouldn't hurt buying a cheap ticket (US$2.50) to experience it. I actually enjoyed the movie but not the experience. Sure the movie has its own flaws but it is not as distracting as the badly dubbed Khmer language. The dub is emotionless and does not fit the tone of the characters. I know Thai and Khmer are two different languages but I couldn't help by being distracted with the bad lip sync throughout the whole movie. On the other hand, the movie is fast-paced enough to hol...
