Rating: 3.2/5 Review: "The last exorcism DVD review"


This has pontential to be a scary and creepy movie but it never lives up to it. The reason is that there are stupid characters that make you not want to care what the hell will happen to them. The exorcism is actually a fraud made by some cheap-ass person who does it for the sake of doing it. When he revealed his plans, I could care less for him to die. He also didn't believe the demon possessing the girl. Until the end. And he finally does something good. The camera man is also annoying. He doesn't respect people's privacy. And for a 1 hour and 22 minutes, the start-up takes almost 30 minutes and the rest is blah. It is only intense for about 15 minutes in the last 30 minutes.

DVD special features- 0/5

Barebone DVD. Not even one feature is found. There are no trailers. There is not even a trailer for the movie.

Rating: 3.6/5 Review: "The Town DVD review"


It is not a bad heist movie. In fact, it is one of the better ones. I remembered watching Takers, another heist movie and I found it not that good. Ben Affleck did an excellent job in playing the main character and also directing the movie. How many directors actually do that? The runtime of 2 hours and 5 minutes is fine, keeping things briskly. There are three action set pieces. They are not bad but a little too short. But climax is fine; a fine shootout between the police and the bank robbers.

DVD special features-2/5

The DVD contains only two short featurettes. One is about the people of charlestown (3 minutes) which tells more information of the location and the real-life people staying there. It is interesting but brief. The last one is about Ben Affleck (7 minutes) about how he juggles two important roles; an actor and a director. Not too bad.

Rating: 3.4/5 Review: "The long distance DVD review"

It is not a bad comedy, it has some laughable jokes but in the end, the story still turns out generic; not much from the comedy category. Drew Barrymore and Justin Long play a couple who has to withstand long distance relationship. They have encountered problems, obviously. But there is still a happy ending, not really but they still manage to have the relationship. Yep, that's about all. The jokes are not bad, some make me laugh and some crude humour make me smile but that do not make up for the generic romance comedy plot.

DVD special features- 2/5

The standard Warner Bros' DVD. Deleted scenes (12 minutes) which are nothing much. The only interesting scenes are the different ideas the two buddies have when Justin's character is thought to be very depressed. One scene show them discussing if he were to die, what would they do. One of them mentions about taking his room. The other scene shows one of them calling a prostitute for him.

Rating: 3.4/5 Review: "Paris Express DVD review"

This is a french movie. The start of the movie may be a bit confusing but as it progresses, the story seems more clearer. It is not really an action movie as the trailer states. There are some mild action including a gun fight and chases. It is also not really that intense considering that this is something like a chase movie. Overall, it is not really worth to watch it if you are familiar with chase movies, this is nothing new. Even in the action department, it offers nothing new.

DVD special features- 0.5/5

A trailer of the movie (2 minutes). At least, it is better than those DVDs with nothing.

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...
