Review: "Drive Angry Blu-Ray review"

Nothing much to say as I have already written a review since its release in cinema. It is a fun movie. And I can't wait to watch it in 3D on TV. The edition I bought is the 3D Blu-Ray combo which consists of both 2D and 3D version of the movie.

Blu-Ray special features- 3.4/5

The only making of is the Access mode. This is my first time watching like a Maximum mode where you are given the option to watch behind the scenes, interviews while watching the movie. And I do not really like it. I feel that it is disruptive. When I want to watch the movie, I prefer to watch without any commentary or Maximum mode. And when I want to watch the special features like featurettes, I want to just watch them without watching the movie. Access mode is like a commentary but with pictures. The screen will split into half. The movie is shown on top of the TV screen while behind the scenes and interviews are shown below. Small screens for the movie and the featurettes. That's a bad thing. I want to watch the featurettes alone without having to watch the movie. I hope that this Maximum mode won't become a trend for Blu-Ray. There are two deleted scenes (1 minute) which are nothing. There is a commentary!!! You mean the access mode is not enough? Although the Access mode is equipped with engish subtitles, the deleted scenes are not. Picture wise is sharp and clear.

Review: "Kamen Rider Double: A to Z/The Gaia Memories of Fate DVD review"

This is one of the best recent Kamen Rider movie, it could be also the best Kamen Rider Double movie. The reason is the fight scenes. It is the few that actually feature wire-work. The other two movies are Kamen Rider The First and its sequel but they are not based on the TV series; they are remakes/reboot. This is decently paced with non-stop action. For a movie that runs about an hour, it is surprising that it features many action scenes. It has more action scenes than some action movies that last about two hours. It is also the first 3D Kamen Rider movie ever filmed. Sadly, the DVD release sees no conversion.

DVD special features-0/5

Nothing. The picture is alright but the whole movie looks laggy. Luckily, the problem does not ruin the cool action scenes. Unlike the other Kamen Rider movie DVD I recently reviewed, this does not seem cut. It seems the logos for the companies are cut.

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...
