Review: "Gantz: Perfect Answer movie review"

I did not catch the first one in cinema therefore I decided to support the last movie. Gantz: Perfect Answer is indeed worth to watch in cinema although it is in only three cinemas. This can be compared to Daeth Note 2 which is also the last movie in the two-parter series (Not counting L changes the world). The suspense and thrills are maxed out like Death Note 2 does. This also features some cool action scenes.

The story: It continues where the first movie last stops. In the beginning, there is a quick recap for the first one and even features the names of the main characters. It is good for those who have forgotten what's happening as this took a long time to be released in cinema. The thrills and suspense makes the movie fast-paced. Action fans have to wait for a while for the real major action scene which involves a train. The other and last major action scene is a lenghtly chase and ends with a cool sword fight scene. Though this is not as action-packed as the first one, its action scenes have great chereography and stunts and lenghtly. I think most of the action scenes last about 10 minutes each. Music is surprisingly epic. Acting is alright. Some of the actors and actresses do not really express well but are still okay.

Overall: It is a great action japanese movie. The Gantz live-action series can be considered one of the best action movie in Japan. It is a good series following Death Note and the 20th Century Boys triology. I hope there will be more action japanese blockbusters series.

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...
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 ...
