Review: "Resident Evil Afterlife 3D movie review"
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Another cool 3D movie which has the depth of the 3D. The last 3D movie I have seen is Step Up 3D and it makes full use of the 3D. Afterlife also makes full use of the technology but it does not have many things that pop out like Step Up. The 3D also helps to create a bleak atmosphere in the movie and exciting during the action scenes. This is actually almost the same as the other three live-action movies; they basically have the same plotline except that they have different survivors in different locations. This also amp up the special effects like slow-motion scenes.
The story: Alice is still surviving after the big hit against the umbrella corps in Japan. She goes around and sees if there are any survivors. Most of the story takes place in a huge building surrounding with zombies. Alice and Claire are trapped in the building with some survivors. Alice finds that not every body can fit in her airplane which can carry two people...and Alice going to find a way to save them all. The action scenes are not bad, they are like in your face. But the short climax is disappointing. There are some annoying and really cheap shock scenes which involve zombies suddenly appearing behind someone's back. Music is cool though the pop music is sometimes not needed.
Overall: It is worth the money to watch it in 3D. This does give me a sense of 3D and bring me to the terrible and rotten world the characters are in. Though there are not much stuff popping out of the screen, the 3D shows the action and zombies right in your face. The next movie that is filmed in 3D this year is Tron Legacy. Can't wait for it.

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: "G-Force movie review" -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- It is not all that bad, at least it tries its to be an enjoyable family movie flick. But as usual, Disney movies now are getting haters around the world due to its popular teens and live-action animals-talking movies. So now, when they see a live-action Disney movie whether it has teenagers singing or animals yapping away, they would be put off immediately. Whatever it is, G-force is fun with 3-D. Kids would like the cute animals coming near them. The story: G-Force has a simple story which is also not creative. But that it is not what kids want, they would want to see action blazing through their ways. As this being a Jerry Bruckheimer production, you can expect at least a car chase and some explosion but only more mild. Trevor Rabin did a good work in creating epic music. Though a kid movie, expect some rude humour but also at the same ti...

Rating: 3.9/5 Review: "John Carter movie review" Unfortunately, I didn't catch it in 3D. I wasn't sure of how the post-conversion would turn out. Back to the movie. To tell the truth, before John Carter opened, I was not sure if I should give the movie a try. The posters are boring and uninspired and trailers are not really exciting. It was only the week that it opened that I decided to catch it in cinema. I am glad that it is actually a fun and entertaining movie that is worth to watch in cinema. The story: It does pack a lot during the 132 minutes runtime. And it does feel slightly bloated. But it is still fun entertainment. The movie starts with a short action scene on Mars and moves on to John Carter on the human world. Then the next 20-25 minutes show John on Earth. So Sci-Fi will have to wait a while to see John on Mars. The story is simple to understand but the number of characters may confuse. It is sort of a chase movie. The action scenes while short are many...
