Review: "Transformers: Dark of the Moon 3D movie review"

This is said to be Michael Bay's last installment to his Transformers trilogy. It is a good end to the franchise although the last minutes could have been extended to give a more closure to the final movie. As usual, this is filled with explosive action, epic music and a hot babe.

The story: The story lasts for one and an half hour before moving into an hour of action. The movie starts off with footage of the first people walking on the moon but they were not there just to start a new record, they were there for a special mission. The movie tries to be like a spy movie where things happen for an unknown reason. Sam and the Autobots have to uncover that mystery. Well, that doesn't actually do well for me but thankfully the pace is decent and packed with action. Carly, Sam's new girlfriend, replaces Megan Fox's character. She is just there to add in the eye-candy. Although she is not as tough as Megan, she still looks pretty and hot. The action scenes are done well. Lots of slow-motion too. The action is the best out of the three movies because it is longer and more thrilling. The last hour boasts cool action scenes filled with explosions.

The 3D is well-done too. Although two and an half hour is a bit too long for a 3D movie, I still could bear with it. People are comparing the 3D effects with Avatar and I would say this boasts better and more effective 3D effects. Some close-ups with the robots are amazing, it is like the robots are just in front of you. When it comes to the action, it is alright that you can at least see the depth between the action and the backgrounds. The action in 3D is better than the disappointing Pirates of the Carribbean. No wonder James Cameron praised Michael Bay regarding of the 3D effects.

Overall: Is it the best Transformers movie? I would say it comes pretty close. The first Transformers movie is the first movie that did the impossible thing; the stunning effects and action. I can't really choose the best. But this is better than the second movie. Michael Bay's Transformers has ended and is one of the best action trilogy out there. There are rumours that there will be a next trilogy without Michael. Bring it on!

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: "The Green Hornet movie review" -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- It is not a bad movie to start on January, a month which okay movie are out. The Green Hornet is a special hero with cool gadgets and cars but the movie turns him into a generic superhero. It is entertaining at best but if you look for a complex plot with a lot of characters' development, this will not sastify. Reid aka The Green Hornet at first in the movie acts like an asshole and making out with girls. Then his father's death hit him hard, but not hard enough. He meets kato and they become The Green Hornet and Kato fighting the bad guys as bad guys. The action scenes are many and loud with explosions. The fight scenes are often played in slow motion. The climax features a cool car chase, a gun fight and a fight in the office. Boom! The climax is loud and explosive and even tearing down the whole office. And it is cool. Who doesn...
Quick DVD reviews Rating: 3.6/5 Review: "Batman: Gotham Knight DVD review" --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The 2D animated movie has six different stories which are interesting on their own. The stories are fast-paced and some of them are action-packed due to the short runtime. The whole movie is only 1 hour and 16 minutes. Some of the famous villians are featured like Scarecrow and the Lizard. The six different stories also have their different styles, Batman seems like a fat monster in one of the story and he is a sleak man in black in another. Overall: It is a good watch even for those who are not a Batman fan but are into the recent live-action Batman movies. DVD special features-3.7/5 The second disc features two good and informative featurettes. One is about the villans of Batman (36 minutes). The writers and producers explain some of the famous villians like Joker and Scarecrow. The interesting facts are that they even ...
