Review: "Thor Blu-Ray review"
Nothing much to say as I have already written a review for it since its theaterical release. I do not really feel anything has changed during the second watch. It is still disappointing but I did not feel as disappointed as the first watch.
Blu-Ray special features- 3.4/5
There are seven featurettes (41 minutes) which cannot be played as a whole featurette. Standard featurettes include interviews and behind the scenes. The director, actors and actresses discuss the movie. The most disappointing featurette is the music featurette which only runs about 2 minutes. I would like to hear more about the composer's idea of composing the music. The next meat is the deleted scenes (24 minutes) which are useless. I am glad that they are being deleted. They are more like extended scenes and the gags in them will spoil the movie if they are put together with the movie. Marvel one-shot: The consultant (3 minutes) is useless too and I don't see it as funny. I have no idea what is happening. The road to the Avengers (3 minutes) is okay but it does not show any footage from the new Avengers movie which is coming out next year. It is just about the director discussing the movie. Trailers of the movie round up the special features. An okay Blu-Ray disc for a superhero movie. The video quality is definitely much better than the cinema's quality that I have seen but still it gets a little dark in some scenes.

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: 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

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.
