Review: "The Dark Knight Rises movie review"

The wait to the one of the most anticipated movie this year is finally over. And how's it? It is a good conclusion to Nolan's trilogy. Although, this is the third movie in the trilogy, the movie takes its time showing Bruce's hesitation before donning the batman suit again. Everything in this movie seems to be amp up whether or not it is the action or explosion or destruction. It features the best action scenes featured in a Batman movie. Though overlong, it is tense and meaningful and touching at some points and packed with some great action scenes.

The story: Those who are eager to see Batman in the first half and hour will be disappointed as Bruce hesitates to don his suit but they will at least be glad to see some action from Bane and Selina Kyle known as     Catwoman. The movie opens to a thrilling airplane jacking by Bane and his gang. And in the first half and hour, we also get to see Selina showing off some moves. By the time Bane is a threat to Gotham City, Batman appears and fends off them. From there, the pace speeds up as Bane terrorizing the city. Of course there are a lot of things packed in the long 2 hours and 45 minutes and at times, it feels a little bloated. The last hour is tense and the explosive and intense climax is the best ever seen in a Batman movie. Acting is good. The newcomers like Selina, Bane etc. are well-acted. Music by Hans Zimmer is top-notch.

Overall: Is it the best in Nolan's trilogy? I can't say although it is better than The Dark Knight. To tell the truth, The Dark Knight is good but not a masterpiece. I think I am the few who enjoyed Batman Begins more than The Dark Knight. The action in this is better and it is more tense than the second movie. With Nolan concluding his trilogy, I look forward another version of Batman in future.

Rating: 4.5/5 Review: "Man of Steel movie review" With all the hype from the trailers, I must say this is what it looks to be expected. I have to say that this is the biggest and epic superhero movie yet. This treats destructions like child's play. It is also the most explosive superhero movie. There are so much explosions that they could literally make you exhausted from watching all those. Although this is directed by Zack Snyder, this does not have much of his trademark except the visuals. His slo-mo trademark is not featured. Instead, the action is rapid fast. Man of Steel is a good entertainment with exciting action scenes and visuals but at the same, a somehow touching human drama. The story: We get an extended opening scene on Krypton where Kal-El is just born. However the planet is going to be destroyed with General Zod adding to the problem. To save Kal-El, he has to be sent to another planet known as Earth. What is interesting about the movie that it do...

Rating: 3.8/5 Review: "Resident Evil: Retribution movie review" It was a pity that I did not manage to catch it in 3D. I have no doubt that it looks good in 3D since the previous movie looks good in 3D. To say the truth, Resident Evil: Retribution seems to be nothing special without the amazing 3D like what Resident Evil: Afterlife is. The 5th movie is all about action and suspense, the story is pretty straight-forward. The story: You are a fool if you go and watch a Resident Evil movie expecting good story line and acting. So far, none of the movies in the franchise have these qualities. But they are entertaining to watch because of the action and suspense. This is the most action-packed Resident Evil movie so far. The action scenes are also better and bigger. It is like a kind of compensation for the lack of action in Resident Evil: Afterlife. It is not only filled with action but it is also intense. Music in this is also the best in the franchise; it has a more ep...

Rating: 3.5/5 Review: Taken DVD review Taken is a new action movie that makes the audiences want more hard and gritty action flicks. I can see that now. Taken has the drama (Yawn!) and the realistic action (Like the Borne movies). Clocking at only 1 and a half hour, the movie starts off slow with drama. After half and hour pass, it goes straight to the intensity and non-stop realistic action. I don't like the slow start. As it is only 1 and a half hour, it do not have the time for slow characters' development. It should drive straight to the action, unless it clocks around 2 hours. The story: It seems to be the usual kidnapping movies where the bad guys kidnap some random girl/boy and ask for ransom. But in this, they kidnap young women to become sex-slaves. A father of a kidnapped daughter is enraged and goes to Paris where his daughter is. "I will find you! I will kill you!" He says to the bad guys. He starts punching and kicking people to hell. He kicks men's b...
