BATMAN VS SUPERMAN - cinema 27th March 16

Batman : I am taller than you ! Superman: And fatter too !

Found a suitable date to watch this movie at the cinema which will be Sunday 270316 morning show TGV Jusco Kepong.Tickets to be booked. Reviews will follow soon afterwards

REVIEWED

This is a movie that everybody has been waiting for, 3 years including myself. So got the chance to see it at the cinema with family on a Sunday morning show as the tickets are cheaper.

Like I mentioned before when Man of Steel came out, you just cant compare a DC comic movie, at least the one directed by Zack Synder, with a Marvel comic book movie.

I saw many people got this wrong when small kids started to cry as they became restless because this movie is not meant for them to enjoy like they might thought with the Avengers. And I stand corrected again in this one. The direction in this movie is for Adults to enjoy if they understand and if they like the super heroes in the first place. If they expect a straight forward bash em up movie like The Avengers, then they are in the wrong cinema. The movie has that same form of direction  like other ZS's movies like Watchmen, Man of Steel, Sucker Punch, 300 to name a few. I dont think everybody like it like the kids who expect to be enjoyed or the parents who might not enjoyed with the kids they brought along. Then this disappointment bring about the complaints that it is not to their expectations.

Before wathcing this, I got the chance to read some reviews from other revieweres. True the film suffers because it was mend to be a platform to build on the Justice League and worse the decision to cut it to 2hrs 20 mins from the original 3 hrs had affected the story telling significantly. You can feel that its editing is too fast from one scene to another and failed in momentum building. But for the current length it was a drag to many and what if it was 3 hours, it might be a pain. People come to be entertain and not be acknowledge, I think that was the reason.

I can say that this is a Batman movie where Superman and Wonder woman are his guests. Its not a Superman movie with the others are his guests, like I initially thought. But in this one, Batman has been rebranded to the Ben Afflecks version. So I think thats what the director was trying to do. And that took quite a chunk of the movie.

Without Kryptonite, SM is league ahead of BM. He could have killed BM when they first accidently met but he didnt.

The action was very good but BM looks fatter still in the armoured suit. His BatJet and BatCar is also formidable. His fight without the suit was more real than Christian Bale's Batman.

The fights of the two was both made possible thorugh the mastermind of Lex Luthor. But that also brought the two super heroes understand one another. The hate that BM had for SM was real due to action beyond SM control.

There's a very big surprise at the end of the movie which follows what the comic book story plot. But dont worry theres plenty to come.

So thats the review. As for me, I enjoyed the parts where the fights are. As the rest of it I apprecitae for the initiative to create the tension between those two and thats bring down the excitability of the movie. But as I said this is a Zack Snyder Super Hero movie so dont expect a Josh Whedon's Avenger's will ya.

I hope I got to see the directors cut 3 hours version in the future in the form of BluRay.

GODS OF EGYPT - Cinema

REVIEWED
This movie received huge critics on the internet. Being rated as "Dogshit", waste of time and plenty more. One critic headline says "Why did i go and see it?". Well are they refering to the same movie or did I watched a different one as I give a Thumbs up for it ! Well if the well known Youtube critic give a "Dogshit" for Transformers Age of Extinction, who give a damn when he gave this one too. Yet Zootopia was given a "BlueRay" which I will also reviewed after this one for I saw both of them on the same day.

Watching this film you know that a big part of it depend on how CGI was applied. If its good, then anything the producers create would be believable. If otherwise, it will really hurt the enjoyment. For this one, the SpecialEfx is good. Watching it on big screen you can decide if its good or bad. Example if you compare Transformers movie with a SyFy production movie, then you know what I meant.Its good as watching Gods fly in this movie is not funny but thrilling.

I also appreciate the fighting chereograph - its fun. I did commented that The Last Witchunter had good fighting chereography but the camera editing and capture was poor. Not this one. Its easy to understand the fluidity of the fights. Bravo !

Theres a few big stories to tell in this movie and in the end I was satisfied and I understood what they are. I can say that its closure is good even if the God King flew away for another mission (wont spoil that). The plot is good and it answers what one can do for love. One message from this movie that apply to real life or religous belief was that during this time you can go to heaven with gold and money but not after Horus became God King.  Which is after all what all Religions believe.

The chemistry between The one eyed God (Horus) and Bek the mortal is also good. They carry the meaning of friendship quite deep. Some jokes between them are funny.

My only complaint is the background music just like the last Witch Hunter, it was overly done. Every minute has music which makes the movie cheap. If they had avoided this then it would be better.

The cast is mostly unknown except of course for Gerard Butler who plays a bad god (Set), his father Ra who is an established English actor. Electra is in this one too as The Godess of Love. Quite different than on TV, pretier. Shes a mixed of French and Vietnamese. GB is really a bad God ass in this one.

So thats my review. Definitely require your time at the cinema to enjoy the extravaganza time of Egypt. Hear peoples view as 2nd opinion only not for this movie only but everything else. After experiencing it, decide how good or bad it is. Nothing is the same for every one.

Zootopia review up next.

GODS OF EGYPT & ZOOTOPIA - cinema

 

     Planning to see both in 1 day tomorrow  at Brem Mall Birth day courtesy from MBO. Will give review once done. Good copies of both still not online yet. GOE is hated by every reviewers online while Zootopia on the other hand has good ratings. I expect the unexpected thou.

THE 5TH WAVE

http://bit.ly/1XEj1Ut

 REVIEWED

This movie was based on a book which now already in the 3rd series. So watching this you should be forgiving enough that it seem to include everything to make a movie interesting. One thing for sure, it target the younger audience somewhere in the category of Harry Potter, Hunger Games, Divergent and many more. Did it succeed like some of the kiddy franchise ? I dont think so. Nevertheless, you kindda expect for a sequel from watching how it ends.

The movie tried to be smart (or low budget or simply for following the book) by not showing any true form aliens although its 100% movie of alien invasion. Instead these aliens take over human host. Kill the host and you kill the alien. But you wouldn't know who is alien or who is human unless you have this scanning device.My only problem with this, how come the alien is so small and looks harmless sitting just below the brain in the head ? If it came out, sure it would be as harmless as a rodent ? It would make the movie definitely a bit more interesting in showing how the aliens infested and host a human. Well like "Alien".

Wonder why they want to incorporate the kiddy stuffs into the movie. Oooo I get it as it was based on the book which targets kids to read. The rationality was quite unbelievable. Is it possible to train kids to be soldiers and send them to war zone with machine guns with a matter of weeks training ? Small kids as young as a 10 year old ! But (no spoiler) you need to see the movie to understand why. But still it cant make the movie logic nor make the movie interesting. I am sure some parents would have appalled looking at kids fighting in a war zone !

Its nice to see Chloe G Morentz in this. She's a good actor all right. Thou not required to bring the best of her acting, at least the movie is a knot higher due to her presence. The elder brother of Jurassic World is in too. Veteran actor like Liv Schriber and Ron Livingston (small role). Too bad Maggie Siff (a big actress in TV series Billions) got a smaller part.

See this if you crave for movies with kids playing hero. The action sequence is not bad and there is no indication at all that it is a low budget one.

Daredevil S2

 

All 13 episodes to download at the link on this page

http://bit.ly/1XClAGO

REVIEWED
This is  a review of the whole season trying not to give out any spoiler or reviewing in any order rather than the whole season review. Good Netflix TV series (or other that are released all at once) are series that are meant to be good. If not, I dont think the studios would want to take the gamble in releasing all of the episodes at once. Imagine series like Daredevil if released in the conventional manner would take the audience about 3 1/2 months to complete. But imagine a die hard fan of Red (As the Punisher called him) would take about 11 hours to complete. Thats super fast. So this fan would be wanting for more, too bad had to wait for another season to appear, which could be next year.


So Daredevil S2 had its pros and cons. The definite Pro is that you dont have to know the main characters like  Matt, Karen and Foggy as you know and love them in Season 1. And of course you know who is DD and why he is what he is. Definitely a plus here, you are settled with the red suit rather than the old black Zorro (without hat) kind of outfit. No doubt the suit is definitely his plus point as it is also an amour which is bullet and slashed proof. Even the horns on the head can be a lethal pair of head butt knives.


Now the con for me, maybe nobody quite agree, is that this DD Season had too much of fighting. Not that i dont like it as a matter of fact the fights are head above the previous season. But if you see them back to back, the fighting may be become too much to take particularly, its not your typical kind of fight, but the gory and bashing ones.


In Season 2 familiar faces that was introduced was Electra and of course The Punisher. Also William Finch finally declared himself as KingPin.

Now 2 comments for the whole season thou there are others, better not spoil the fun.

The final fight scene on the rooftop should have been with more ninjas and longer. Before it start you saw these ninjas running. Lots of em perhaps in hundreds. But when it come to the fighting it was only a handful. What happen to the rest ? One film that remind me of endless fighting was between Neo and the clone Smiths in Matrix 2. DD and Electra should have faced foes like this and it would be more satisfying.

When Karen met Matt (as DD) when he came to save her and the other hostages, at that close range and DD mannerism and voice maintain as Matt Murdoc, she could had spotted that it is the same person. They had kissy kissy, BTW. Or maybe it is such hard to believe that a blind Matt could be the DareDevil !


But those are small observations and a few more if i wish to comment. Its a awesome Superhero series. Must check back the movie version of DareDevil when Ben Affleck was donning it. Why so bad ? Anyway people are saying that he is the best Batman ever in Batman V Superman !

WAFFLE STREET

http://bit.ly/22oNoFa

REVIEWED

I expected this movie to be good but it was not so. Chose this movie hoping it to be another one about somebody who made it in the financial sector like "Secret of my Success". However the plot is not like that but i could had like it if it was presented better. Well, its about Jim Adams who was a big shot in the financial world of wall street who got sacked and tried to recoup his life in doing something different and what he thought was honest from the challenge thrown  by his father and grandpa. As I said the plot is interesting enough, it could have been good. This was based on a true story about Jimmy Adams, so thats not much running you can do.

 

It has Danny Glover whom to me was good in this one. His usual self but his character brought the charm which still he has as a veteran black actor. Dont know much about the lead guy J Lafferty but he acted in TV series. Not much on acting but with hard work and luck he has that cut to make as a young action hero guy.

 

Now lets get to movie..

The movie is slow and nothing much interesting happen. With the way its directed, it could have well fit as a TV movie or those DVD released ones.

 

One plot that is believable unlike some financial go broke movie is that when Jim got fired he was still ok financially as of course he still has his savings. Unlike some movie who went berserk after got fired. Dont they thought or prepared that anything could happen ? Anyway as this is based on a true story so thats how it should be.

 

And eventually (as in real life would be) he had to let go his nice house and car and even his good office shoes. 

 

But good or no good film, you could really admire Jim Adams (he actually existed right?) courage and spirit to do something other than the life he knew on the Wall Street. Really hard working and goal orientated, how he wanted to reach his goal. That is what I like about the character.His wife was also super supporting thou not agreeing right away, she morally supported her husband anyway.

 

So thats my review. See this to understand that shit happens in real life. Its how you take it that matters.

D-DAY SURVIVOR

http://bit.ly/1Z5RLzI
DROPPED 

REVIEWED

Start watching this film with anticipation with the hope that it will give a good war film or at least an acceptable one. But nahhh ! in the first 15mins just feel that the rest will turn out a disappointment. A British production with unknown actors. The sight of a young British soldier making friend with an equally young German soldier was a turn off. 

 

ANOMALISA

http://bit.ly/1R1zjoG

REVIEWED

This movie had numerous nomination and wins of awards. Its not your straight forward animation thats for sure. More like the puppets type but with fluider movement. Yet still it looks stiff. Dont forget a 7.5 IMDB ratings !

When starting to watch this film, I knew something is not right. Seem that all except one (lisa of course) of the female characters sounded in male voices and looked like male in female dresses and hairs. Thou the film is animated, it dont want to be one where theres nothing to the characters that a real actor cannot do and maybe do it better. But then audience will not have the "admiration" that real actors do a crappy and pointless film.

This film is about a consultant by the name of Michael Stone who traveled to Cicinati and put up a night in a hotel called The Fregilo. There he met one of his audience named Lisa.  He has his marital problems and doubts.

Kids, please do not watch this as it is X Rated ! It has view of old protruding man's  penis. And dont forget a harmless love making scene too.

Still I dont get why are their faces (definitely MS) are like wearing a mask ? Are they robots ?  

The good I got from watching was a very brief but useful lectures on Selling by Michael Stone.

This movie is pointless without any direction and definitely over rated. Real people could carry this film with ease and prove its unworthiness just the same. But people would then know its a crap. But you did it this way and people say that its a masterpiece !

See this if you want to know how bias can IMDB ratings be and how a below par film become a gem. Make it so pointless that audience felt that they missed the whole point of the film cause they aren't intellect enough to understand a film like this. Thats how I felt anyway.

CHURCHILL'S SECRET

http://bit.ly/1QP5U2e

REVIEWED
From title we know right away its about the former premier of Britain Sir Winston Churchill. The secret is nothing sinister that he had multiple strokes near the end of his career. The movie showed his courage to survive due to the support from Clemy his wife. Equaly important was the nurse that attended to him during the trying months.

I guess the movie didnt have much to tell so it also included the squables of his 4 children. Due to that the focus on the man went side tracked. So watching this movie rather than expecting it to be about Churchill vs Stroke and his career plus the help from his nurse Millie, it also incuded his family which I was not interested to know. If the movie had concentrated on how Millie got him well again (never mind if over dramatized) it would have been better. Maybe too little plot to just do that. Or the movie might stressed the timeline a bit to include what he did for Britain and the man he was when in office rather than sticking to tell his bed side victory.

How Millie looked back as her achievement in nursing back to near normal with some nice motivating (and suspenseful back ground music) was good. Thou from the timeline when Churchill left the house and arrived to make the speech which was hours way did not synschronise with Millie depature from the house. She even had time to listen to his stammering on radio. Anyway it was for dramatic purposes which formula was used by a lot of films.

See this if you a fan of SWC and wanting to know the man a bit closer at least during his vulnerable time.

LONDON HAS FALLEN - cinema viewing 16th March 16

REVIEWED

So the day at the movies finally came and I went to see it with my wife. As always I was skeptical watching movies at this particular movie outlet. And I was not wrong as the venue was a disappointment. Although the screen is good, sharp, I cant say the same for the audio system. I told my wife, our own home made audio system is better. Never have I got annoyed in watching a movie not because the movie is shitty but the venue is, or merely the audio is the culprit. Poor bass and maybe treble on the higher side. Thou the sound is loud and clear, for conversation, I cant say that its good for the sound effects.

Now lets talk about the movie - London has fallen.

Many reviewers like this film even JJ and CS said so. But still they said it cant beat its predecessor Olympus has fallen which I agree. Perhaps letting a US president let loose with his bodyguard in a deserted city of London is too big a task to take to entertain.

The special effects was a let down in the required places. I thought this will be the film strength when watching its trailer but its not. Some bombs scene was not real. The helicopter escaped too was cartoonish. Even the ripples and waves of  London river was below average to me. Film like "2012" or the recent "San Andreas" did this better even on a grander scale. Thou this was only some briefs moment, they still failed starkly.

This is another film of US supremacy against the terrorist. In the end we can predict who won and what it took to win. The Brits did play their part adequately to help the US. MI6 was in this in the form of a female Agent (sorry no Mr Bond here). And the SAS did help Mike Manning to save the president.

Lots of explosions and fire power. How I wish the sound was better !!! as it only hurts the ears.

But at the end of the movie when everything finally subside and you salute the hero who is Mike Manning aka Gerard Butler, you realized that that guy is actually a British disguising as an Agent in the Secret Service body guarding the President of the US. Ooops sorry that is real life this is actually a movie after all. 

Giving it the rating above and I am trying to count out in the physical disappointment of the cinema.

 

Found a suitable date to watch this movie at the cinema which is Wednesday 160316 night show MBO Brem Mall.Tickets to be booked. Reviews will follow soon afterwards

Bosch Season 2 is back !

 http://bit.ly/1XltzI3

     
 Bosch is a TV series released all episodes at the same time like House of Cards. Yup this is for cable TV. Saw the first season way back in 2014. Kind of slow but it was really like you are watching a real cop by the name of Bosch (presumably no relationship with the Brand that makes hardware). This season has 10 episodes. Check out the download link if you want to see the 10 episodes. But its advisable to check back season 1 to know the who Bosch is.

POINT BREAK (2015)

2nd download link
http://bit.ly/1YZ87tY

REVIEWED

So I finally saw this film after an unusual long months of waiting for a good download copy. Watched this with my son as before it came out in the cinema he wanted to see it. Too bad it came with a rating 18 (he's only 13). But after watching this movie at home, it should not have got the 18 ratings. That goes the same for Need of Speed a few years ago. There are politics going on in the censorship board for sure. As I complained on a Malays film with foul, bad language, shootings, knives, hitting police and all the the other stuffs got into the cinema with a PG13. When asked why ? The director says because somebody had leaked the film over the internet and if they are tagged with 18, then income would be less. Just because the father of the director is closed with the Police does not mean that you can make that as an excuse. But anyway the film went through with a PG13 ! Well forget about this local hypocritical bullshit for a while and talk about the film instead.

But still why it took so long for it to come out with a clear copy. Just the opposite of Star Wars: TFA, this movie has very bad reviews from Youtube reviewers JJ and CS. They even say they fell asleep watching this. Gimme a break. Anyway, maybe the reason is because the producers were afraid to spend more money making blu rays and nobody buys ? 

OK lets talk about the movie.

It is a remake of a 90's hit of the same name starring Keanu Reeves and the late Patrick Swayze. KR played Johnny Utah and PS played Bodhi. In this film you have not too popular actors playing the 2 parts. But if you read IMDB, the parts were actually offered to known actors but they declined due to one reason or the other. I think the physicality requires for this film is the best explanation.

The film could have been better. The actions are fantastic thou. It looks so real and you wonder which one is the special effects. It was spectacular watching on LED TV and cant imagine how it was at the cinema. It makes you wonder in awe that there are places like this in this world. The waterfalls, the mountain top, the sea waves (which could be fake) and many more. 

This remake does not follow exactly what the original story was although there are familiar part. But to me nothing could beat the part when KR (without a parachute) jump the plane to catch PS (with parachute).

I agree with the reviews in saying that character development was lacking. Not that their acting were poor rather than their character were not interesting or they did not do anything to make them memorable. Also I would caution the director to do some timeline story telling when two scenes which are years or months apart but are back to back. Audience might miss the Time imprint to tell how long it was from the previous one especially when the first was 7 years apart and the 2nd one 7 months apart. They look the same and that was the problem.

I enjoy the film despite the handicap above. Its an action film which try to have serious acting and serious story line of what made them do the thing they did. Anyway who cares for that and it miss the mark. But 5.4 on IMDB is on the low side for me.

IP MAN 3

 

http://bit.ly/1TQKTqL

REVIEWED

This is the 3rd installment of the IP man. It started with a confrontation from Bruce Lee who wanted IP man to teach him Wan Shu but he was still reluctant. Nevertheless, somewhere in the movie, IPM asked a favor from BL which I think have some effect why IPMan finally agree to teach Bruce Lee. I reckon if there is an IPMan 4, it'll be about Bruce Lee and IP Man. But this story has got nothing to do with Bruce Lee but something else. Mike Tyson showed his boxing skills with IP Man but I doubt if a boxer can be in the same ring with a Martial Arts expert. However, the film didnt want to belittle MT even though he is now a has been. Fatty Sgt Po is quite a familiar face in Hong Kong film circuit.

I like this film. Too bad its in Chinese with subtitles for I have to read the subtitles to understand and this took away the concentration on the acting which is actually good. Donnie Yen can act as the "couldnt care less" Martial Arts master. You can feel his character even when he is with his wife who is taller than him in the movie. Maybe the film dont want to hide the height difference as its according to real people or simply dont have the incentive to do it. 

The background music is also commendable. Its not totally chinese flavored but very soothing when the scenes warrant it. Also effective during the fight scenes.

The strength of the film is definitely the fighting and there are lots of em (including with Mike Tyson of course). What make the fight "pleasant" is that its not superficial with less use of ropes, adequately use of slo mo with excellent editing and camera angles. Its even better than Hidden Dragon Crouching Tiger 2 which I saw recently. Perhaps the artistry of the fights lies in Wan Shu itself. But superbly done bravo.

Dont forget the love and family elements of the film. Donnie Yen pulled off as being one cool very committed husband and father. 

See this as its good but ensure you have the subtitles on unless you know chinese. 7.9 on IMDB very appropiate.

2 robot movies in a row is not good for ya ?

Thats what I felt watching this. Its just too slow. If robots were made to help humans but why do they make them so damn slow and sluggish with no defense mechanism at all ? They look very efficient when building or repairing their own kind (other robots). But the scene when they virtually drag Jack (played by Antonio Banderas) from the wrecked car through the desert was pointless. Why dont they devise some sort of cart with wheels from the car wreckage ? 

This movie stars Antonio Banderas (baldy) his wife Melanie Griffith (plastic surgery?), Dylan Macdermont (unrecognizable) as the bad guy and 1 familiar face. The voice of robot Cleo is of MG, very cute indeed. She also played Dr Dupre.

This suppose to happen in 2044 when the some anomalies occurred with the sun causing 97% of human to perish. Whats left is about 20 million people. There's no crops or trees as the earth had turned to wasteland with miles and miles of desert. Apart from that, radioactive level are harmful in most areas. So for human to survive they build robots. They are built with protocols not to harm humans and not to modify themselves. But some manage to fool this and they became unwanted like homeless people. Yes now you have homeless robots. But they are smart and so they manage to sustain themselves.

These robots are not like Hot Bot robot rather than close to Voltron but very sluggish and mechanical.

I just dont quite get the message of Automata. What were the renegade robots trying to do ? With such proactive attitude, they cant get anywhere when the humans came and searching for them. But lucky you have Jack (AB) to save them more of returning the favor that they did for him.

The movie was trying to be abstract but it failed to me. On a budget of $7mil, what can you do right ? Not much action is what you get and the movie become dragging. But in the end I dont get what was the whole point of the robots running. What are their plans ? There may be a concept here but having a bigger budget with more robots doing it rather than the 4 hopeless ones, could help the putting the idea through.

So to me, the movie failed in delivering what it suppose to.

Most of the actors I dont know except for Anthony Anderson (of blackish fame and was in the 1st transformer) and the senator. The father (step father?) is also a familiar TV series face. Although AA is named last in the opening credit, he was adequately acting in the movie. The 2 main "nerdy" stars are unknown but to me they carried the film well especially Limus. Sometimes you feel sorry for his sorry ass hoping that he'll stand up for himself. And Bardot the robot is eye candy. Looks like a slender Elizabeth Banks and dont act much (as she is a robot daaa).

Yes despite the poster and the title, you have little skin exposure in this movie. Many who were hoping to watch because of that would be disappointing. The background music was accompanied by some jazzy band trying to do something like the Ocean's 13 (and so on) movies. Being low budget but it works sometimes.

Till the end wondering how is Lumis's family actually. Is that his step father and step sister but they seem to be so domineering like a real family. Perhaps they try to pull like a Jurassic Park 2 movie one where Jeff Godblum's ovie daughter character is black but no one ask why and how. So that goes with this one too, I guess.

I would have emphasized a lot more when the boys discovered Bardot after crashing on her after all she was near naked. Theres non of this as the next scene was Bardot in the boy's car.

Its not a waste of time watching this with the familiar topic of robot becoming human. Thou you could come up with lots of complains on how things happened like the way there were, but if you dont take the movie seriously, you'll be OK.

The production of the movie is nicely done and you dont feel that its a low budget movie where the credit goes to the Polish brothers? who directed and also wrote the movie.  Ending is like a Jackie Chan movie where it show goofie failed scenes.

REVIEWED

Just finished watching this movie and honestly I expect this to be a letdown, but it aint !

First Mark Wahlberg and Will Farrel had been paired before in a cop comedy movie which I think named Hard Cop. I remember Dwayne Johnson was also in that too and thats how MW teamed up with him in Pain and Gain. Anyway it was just pure coincidence that this is again another movie produced by Red Granite which was also behind The Wolf on WS. So Najib's step son is in this too.

This movie nearly get a 2 thumbs from me if not for the slow start which plot is far too familiar in other movies of this nature. But through this movie you will see some real stunt just for seconds but brief enough to bring the respond - did that happened ?

Beside MW and WF, Christen Hayden Church and Bob C who acted as the son in that Pacino's Collins movie were in here. Also stay right till the very end because there is another familiar face, you dont want to miss this for it got me laughing out loud literally.

Like I said, the rivalry of the biological and adopted dads took a different turn and thats what made the difference than other movies of this type. Sure enough, if not for both the main actors the movie may not be as good. But its depend on individuality of course.

Fun with  family value morale in this one
