Review: "Drive Angry 3D movie review"

This is one of the rare action movies that is actually shot with 3D camera. And it shows the depth between the characters and the backgrounds. The action scenes are also good with most of the scenes almost in front of your face. Drive Angry 3D is pretty fun and 3D makes it a more entertaining ride.

The story: Nicolas Cage acts as an angry father chasing a madman who has kidnapped his daughter's baby. From the start, the movie does not really bother to explain in details of what has actually happened, it starts off with a short action scene. Soon, he gets the help of a tough and sexy and pretty waitress acted by hot Amber Heard. The downside is that she shows little skin unlike her other movies. But still she is a feast on the eye. Plus, she is in 3D so I can't really complain. The decent action scenes are cool with many explosions, gun fights and people being blown up. The climax is over-the-top with explosions and gun fights. The story moves decently without much dragging.

Overall: It is worth the watch in the cinema in 3D. Two reasons to watch it in 3D. One is the action scenes in your face and the second is sexy Amber Heard in 3D! No idea why this only takes in US$10 million. Maybe people are not really interested in Nicolas Cage 's movies after some recent bad movies. It is a pity that though this is an entertaining ride, it will be written as the biggest flop in wide released 3D movie. Until some other 3D movie take over.

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...
