Review: "I am number four Blu-Ray DVD review"

Nothing much to say here as I have already wrote a review since its cinema release. It is not bad to own it on Blu-Ray. The picture is sharp and the colours are vibrant. This combo set includes a standard DVD. I have compared both of them and the Blu-Ray is far more vibrant than the dull DVD which the colors seem to be washed out.

Blu-Ray special features- 3/5

There are deleted scenes (19 minutes) which are kind of useless in the movie but they do bring out the extra information for some of the characters. Each deleted scene is introduced by the director explaining why the scene got deleted. I find there are not many deleted scenes and the running time of each of them is short. But it is the director's introduction that makes the whole feature long running 19 minutes. There is only a single making of (12 minutes) and it is not for the movie. It is only focused on the making of number six. Standard making of includes behind the scenes and interviews. It would be nice to have another making of for the movie. The last feature is a gag reel (3 minutes) which involves actors and actresses laughing and goofing around. Lastly, two trailers for Reel Steel and Pirates of the carribean 4 round up.

Raing: 3.5/5

Review: "Harry Potter and the goblet of fire DVD review"


Clocking at 2 hours and 37 minutes, the movie paces around decently with not much boring parts. The start of the movie already see the trio seeing a match and soon an attack by Voldemort. The movie other than dealing with the grand matches between the fittest also deals with teen romance. There is also arguing between the trio about love and jealousy. The action scenes including an intense climax during matches are fine.

DVD special features- 3.4/5

The second disc is filled with special features and lame games. The disc is splited into four sections like the three matches and the things related to them and the forth section is about the general features. The three special sections include games like running away from the dragon; lame stuffs which I can't even control. Te main features, first the Dragon Arena: There is a making of the dragon and how Harry escapes from it (6 minutes). There is another making of that introduces three other characters who are new to the movie (11 minutes). Up next is the Lake where there is a single making of (9 minutes) which shows the making of the lake scene and Daniel training to swim underwater. The maze includes two making of. One is the making of the maze and the intense climax (5 minutes). The other one is the making of Voldemort (9 minutes) which shows Ralph describing how scary he wants to play.

Move on to the general features. There are additional scenes (10 minutes) which are boring. There is one that is played like a music video. Conversation with the cast (30 minutes) is surprisingly long where the trio get interviewed and some lucky winners get to interview them too. Preparing for the yule ball (9 minutes) is about the making of the ball where actors and actresses prepare dancing. Lastly, there is the reflections on the fourth film (14 minutes) where the cast talking about fun stuff like how they play their roles. Lots of features in the second disc but I could finish it in a short time unlike others. Hint: Though there are a lot of features, each of the running time is considered short.

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: 3.7/5 Review: "Terminator Salvation DVD review" -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This is not bad. It is not the worst terminator movie, I actually thought Terminator 1 is just okay. Terminator 2 and 3 are quite entertaining followed by also entertaining Salvation. MCG, the director of Charlies' Angels, takes the directing seat and turned terminator into a dark and gritty world. As what he said, he did not want the future to be a shiny world but a dark and gritty world. He is considered to have done a great job in that and creating the realistic and cool action. But his story pretty much stays the same as his other movies, a simple mindless thrill ride. The story: The future is here and the year is 2018...John Conner is a daring man who will be willing to save people from Skynet, a evil organisation which creates Terminators. A mysterious man who is supposed to be dead suddenly finds himself in the year of...

Rating: 3.7/5 Review: "Fantastic Four movie review" "A decent gritty reboot that could have been something more than what it is now." This is Josh Trank's first big budget movie and it seems he is slightly inexperienced of directing a movie of a massive scale. Fresh from directing a small budget movie, Chronicle, it seems that he is overwhelmed by whatever happened (there are rumours that Matthew Vaughn was brought in to reshoot). Nonetheless, on the whole, the reboot is an alright movie that rehashes on the tired superhero origin. It is disappointing that it is a little shallow. I think with a longer runtime, it could benefit the characters' development and flow of the story. The story: Apparently, the writers of the film said that it does not follow any story from the source material. Instead, a new origin is created. I didn't exactly know how the original source material goes (I read a couple of Fantastic Four comic books to know the tone ...
