Review: "Big Hero 6 3D movie review"

It is Disney's first attempt adapting from the source material of Marvel. It is a pretty good effort. Although Disney understandably changes the looking of characters to appeal to a younger age audience, Disney never fails visually. The whole movie is a visual treat from the unique environment to the exciting action. You can never go wrong with a Disney animation movie.

The story: The movie starts off a little slow. A good half and hour is devoted to the chemistry of two brothers, Hiro and his older brother Tadashi. There are quiet moments where Tadashi encourages his rebellious younger brother. The pace starts to pick up when Hiro looses his brother in a fire accident. After the lost of motivation to live, Hiro finds that the accident is no accident and someone is behind it. That's where the fun begins. Hiro equips Baymax, a healthcare robot, and his friends with super-charged suits to defend themselves from threats and get to the bottom of the mystery. Big Hero 6 is one of the most thrilling animation movie by Disney. The action scenes are well-craft with enough peril. The movie strikes a balance with super-charged action and drama and humour. Baymax will definitely be getting a lot of attention due to humorous moments and its distinctive yet simple look. The animation looks visually beautiful with lots of detail. Music accompanies nicely with the whole movie.

3D: It is okay. As usual, the movie focuses on using 3D to create a depth between characters and backgrounds. It creates a more immersive world for the audience. There are not many gimmick shots. Overall, the 3D effects are alright but it would't be a lost if it is watched in 2D.

Overall: It is as entertaining as it gets. The directors know how to balance loud action with quieter moments of character development. As far as a superhero movie goes, Big Hero 6 contains what a superhero movie should have. As far as an animation move goes, it strikes the high points. Good looking visuals, great action scenes, touching moments, decent character development, entertaining plot. This is what a superhero animated movie should be.

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: 3.5/5 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...

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...
