Pacific Rim The Review


Assalamualaikum / Peace be Upon You



Okay, I haven't written any post lately, so I'm returning back by writing this review on this awesome summer film; Pacific Rim. What is Pacific Rim, you might ask? Pacific Rim tells a story of a future where Earth is under attack by Kaiju, colossal monsters which have emerged from a portal on the ocean floor. To combat the monsters, humanity unites to create the Jaegers: gigantic humanoid mecha or robot, each controlled by two pilots whose minds are joined by a neural bridge. Focusing on the war's later days, the story follows Raleigh Becket, a washed-up Jaeger pilot called out of retirement and teamed with rookie pilot Mako Mori in a last-ditch effort to defeat the Kaiju.

Metal Gear Solid Movie Announced

Assalamualaikum / Peace be Upon You

During the stage presentation at the Metal Gear Anniversary event in Tokyo, Hideo Kojima confirmed that there was still a Metal Gear movie project in the works with Avi Arad producing after several years of chatter about a Metal Gear Solid movie and apparently the project was at one time moving forward. Then, the movie project simply died off.

Kojima Productions boss Hideo Kojima explains that he had been searching for years for a suitable production team to create a fitting movie adaptation, but with the availability of Avi Arad to oversee things and his reputed success at adapting American comic book classics (or Marvel comics at any rate) he had confidence he would do Snake justice as well.

The Expendables 2 The Review

Assalamualaikum / Peace be Upon You


The Expendables are back and this time it's personal... Last week, the second movie of The Expendables had been released worldwide. I went and watch the movie yesterday. I'm a fan of action heroes movies since I was a little kid. I've been watching Terminator movies, Die Hard movies, Universal Soldier movies and other action movies. Let me get this fact right, The Expendables movies are made as a tribute towards all of those action movies thus you are not watching it for the plot or storyline but for the action scenes.

The story stars off where the Expendables went to Nepal to rescue a Chinese billionaire only to find Trench (Arnold Schwarzenegger) to be captured also by the guerrilla when he was going to rescue the billionaire. As the story progress, they introduced to the newest member of the group, Billy The Kid (Liam Hemsworth) who is an ex-sniper of the U.S. Army that served during the war at Afghanistan. During this scene, Yin Yang (Jet Li) only made an appearance for about 15 minutes of the movie since his character had to deliver the billionaire back to his country.

The Dark Knight Rises The Review


Assalamualaikum / Peace be Upon You

 

Last week, the last movie of Nolan's Dark Knight trilogy had been released worldwide. I went and watch the movie. I'm not a DC fan but I do follow Batman's story. I want to make it clear that I hate Nolan version of Batman. Therefore, some of the statements that I'm about to put might be a little biased and extreme prejudice.

Three Third Sequels

Spiderman 3

-Way to go intoducing venom in the final half hour of the movie and killing him. Venom was a pussssssy! He didnt even try going after spiderman by himself first. DEAR GOD! WHY!? I just kept hoping for something cool to happen.
-Dancing? In a superhero movie? No thanks.
-Downright laughable lines. I was laughing at the lines, not the movie.
-Plot hole here and there...
-Spider-Man teaming up with the "New Goblin"... This isnt Batman. There iss a reason Spider-Man works alone and its to avoid stupid one liners.
-Raimi could have just said "I don't like Spider-Man" instead of blowing 250 million on this.
-On a side note.....Bruce Cambell owns. His cameo made me happy.

Pirates of Carribean 3: At The World's End

-Will's death was pointless and anticlimactic as was Norrington's, Sao Feng's and Governor Swann's. Even Beckett's very well produced death was made moot by the fact that he had ZERO character development.
-Pointless action in the movie.
-Somewhat this movie is too damn long that made me feel bored looking at it. Luckily, there was the witty Jack Sparrow.

Shrek The Third

-Too short; one and half hour.
-Repeated jokes and used ones.
-What happened to Shrek? Since when he cared about others?
