Best and Worst of 2012

The end of the year has passed. 2012 has shown a lot of good movies and is a much better year than in 2011. Let's see if 2013 can top 2012 as 2013 will also see many blockbusters and sequels and other movies.

Best: 
1. The Avenger-It is a great superhero movie. It has great action and ,at the same time, an interesting story. You see superheroes learning to accept one another.

2. The Dark Knight Rises-The end is here and it ends with a bang. It features the best action ever seen in a Batman movie. It also has the moral story which is interesting to watch although it is a little too long.

3. Skyfall-Could be the best James Bond movie; rivaling Casino Royale. It does have great action and a thrilling story. How will the next James Bond movie beat it? Daniel Craig has the best James Bond movies.

Other notable movies are Dredd and Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter in 3D, The Amazing Spider-Man. There are actually many good movies that is impossible to list all of them.

Worst:
1. The Watch-It is disappointingly bad. It features funny actors like Ben Stiller but it is not even slightly funny. How can that be? The gag jokes are not funny and they are just boring. The story also does not help. The aliens only appear in 2 scenes.

2. About Cherry-Yawn, it is a really boring movie with nothing accomplished except some nudity.

3. The house at the end of the street-It is not too bad a horror thriller but it is just plain and generic. The twist is nothing special. The thing that it is predictable.

2012 does not have a lot of bad movies. It is hard to find and list out a bad movie in 2012.

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...

Rating: 3.7/5 Review: "Fantastic Four movie review" "A decent gritty reboot that could have been something more than what it is now." This is Josh Trank's first big budget movie and it seems he is slightly inexperienced of directing a movie of a massive scale. Fresh from directing a small budget movie, Chronicle, it seems that he is overwhelmed by whatever happened (there are rumours that Matthew Vaughn was brought in to reshoot). Nonetheless, on the whole, the reboot is an alright movie that rehashes on the tired superhero origin. It is disappointing that it is a little shallow. I think with a longer runtime, it could benefit the characters' development and flow of the story. The story: Apparently, the writers of the film said that it does not follow any story from the source material. Instead, a new origin is created. I didn't exactly know how the original source material goes (I read a couple of Fantastic Four comic books to know the tone ...
