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: 3.6/5 Review: "Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D season 2 TV review" Season 2 has improved greatly. Starting straight from the massive cliffhanger in season 1, season 2 is more tense, action-packed, darker and better paced. I think season 1 took its time to introduce its characters before diving into the action. The time is spread out to individual characters' development. More twists and turns make the season a stark improvement. Episode 1-22: Skye has discovered her powers and is learning how to cope with it. Meanwhile, the team has its problems. Coulson seems to be hiding secrets. In fact, everybody has secrets. More powers are unleashed. It is a little surprising that Marvel is bold enough to veer the series to a darker tone by amping up the number of deaths and more violence. The whole season has little humour and moves at a brisk pace without really pausing. As the tension between human and superhuman increases by each episode, it is an exciting season that w
Rating: 4/5 Review: "The Hobbit: An unexpected Journey 3D movie review" This is the highly anticipated prequel to The Lords of the Ring movies. As a stand alone movie, it does pretty well to engage audiences with its great special effects and fantasy creatures. I cannot compare this with the first trilogy as I can hardly remember it although I will catch it later. But as it seems, this is more lighter than the serious first trilogy. Sure this has its fair share of intense battles but this is more light-heart. The story: With a runtime of 2 hours and 49 minutes, you can be sure that this will take its sweet time to get the adventure going which is true. After a brief action-packed introduction, the movie moves slower. The first half and hour sees a hobbit's unwillingness to go for an adventure as the other dwarves plan to steal their treasures and take what is rightfully theirs. After the hobbit agrees, the fantasy adventure starts and following it are dangers.
Rating: 3.5/5 Review: "From Vegas To Macau 2 movie review" "Loads of fun in Wong Jing's bigger sequel." Wong Jing is back with more madness, action, explosion and a longer runtime. As every sequel tries to top its original in every way, From Vegas To Macau 2 is no different. Lots of explosion, lots of wacky humour and more CGI, if these are your entertainment, the movie will do you no wrong. From the opening gun fight to the CGI climax, the story is kept brisk to keep your attention in check. The story: Chow Yun-fat is back as the titular gambler, Ken, with the magic hand. This time, the movie exaggerates his skills with CGI poker cards until it almost becomes a fantasy. But that's to be expected in a Wong Jing's movie. This time, the location is shifted to Thailand where Mark (Nick Cheung), an accountant in a money-laundering syndicate, DOA, is chased by Interpol and DOA. Ken has to save him and help his protege, Vincent (Shawn Yue). Wong Ji
