Review: "Wrath of the Titans 3D movie review"

The sequel to the 2009 Clash of the Titans. Clash of the Titans 3D was the worst 3D movie experience I ever had as it was post-converted. So when I heard that they were shooting the sequel in 3D, I was excited. Clash of the Titans could have been great if not for the shoddy 3D effects. This is what Clash of the Titans should been. This has bigger and epic action and the 3D is a million times better than the first one.

The story: It is pretty straight-forward. The action starts soon enough when the movie opens. The action scenes involving some creatures are few but are great. But it is the climax which is almost the third act that stands out from the whole movie. It is filled with special effects and brawls between gods and demigods. Another scene that is noteworthy is the maze scene. The whole scene is intense as the maze is constantly changing its path to confuse the characters. The maze scene almost take up the second act of the movie. The movie is worth a watch just for these scenes. The music is alright, it can get epic at times but on the whole, Clash of the Titans' music is better than this. Acting is alright. Special effects are good.

3D: It seemed that the director changed his mind about shooting it in 3D and opted for post-conversion later on. And my hopes were dashed. Fortunately, I gave this a try as there are reviews saying that the 3D is definitely better than the first one. To my surprise, it is pretty good. It can be the best 3D post-converted movie I have seen. It even tops Alice in the Wonderland which was the best 3D post-converted movie before this. There are scenes which things like flying debris pop out from the screen. But most importantly, the characters never felt flat. They felt like 3D dimensional.

Overall: It is a cool epic movie. This is what Clash of the Titans could not be. It has the 3D to immense the audience into the world of gods and monsters. People should give the 3D version a chance and forget about how horrible Clash of the Titans'3D was. I hope there will be a third movie and this time I pray hope they will shoot it in 3D.

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...
