I was watching this earlier today and I kinda liked how this was an animated production from Sony pictures, rather than the usual Pixar or Dreamwork's animations. Anyway, the story was particularly interesting whereby a brilliant scientist misunderstood and shun by the people around him decided to revolutionize the way people look at their meals but soon turns awry.

The big screen adaptation is different from the same titled book, but nonetheless, it is one animation you would not want to miss if you are a fan of movies such as the recent Disney/Pixar's work, UP and so forth.

P.S. The only artist from the cast that was vaguely familiar to me was the voice played by Anna Faris (Sam).

This show was one of most movie seekers like myself would consider to be the anticipated movie of 2009 and yes, it was epic!

Although I'm not a fan of G. I. Joe and don't know much about the history, structure, stories and background of the animated series which I guess would be a contributing factor in which makes the movie a whole lot more enjoyable.

The movie had decent graphics combined with a whole lot of action packed scenes which backs up the rather dry story line and plot. It is in a word, predictive on how some scenes and all the pieces fits in as you would have guessed it would be.

Still, this is one of the movies I watch this year that I did not regret, looking forward to its sequel.

Yes, being a big Harry Potter fan that I am, I will not miss out on watching this although, it was as expected, a disappointment.

My memory may be a little rusty but I do know that the movie was emphasizing on the wrong part of the story and missing out on so much more details.

For example, they focused too much on romance instead of the title of this series itself, Half Blood Prince. They never explained the origins and how Severus Snape became or adopted the nick 'Half Blood Prince' (I myself need to refresh my memory by reading the book once more).

The book also tells how the relationship between Harry and Cho drifted apart and how he and Ginny started out but the movie cut straight to the chase instead.

Seriously, it was such a let down. If this was to become the second-last movie of the series, I think the finale would be 'epic' enough to be a huge let down.

Yep, a little late on the update but here it is.

I was watching this with my usual company of tight friends about 3 to 4 weeks ago. Being the huge Transformers fan that I am, it was rather a let down for me. The graphics were great, the humour was awesome but what made the movie a bust was that it did not tie up lose ends, like the movie was made in a hurry or something.

(WARNING: Spoilers up ahead)

-	If the cold freezing water is strong enough to keep Megatron 'asleep', how does 6 mere Decepticons were able to dive down to ressurect Megatron?
-	The number of Decepticons that dived down was 6, and after ressurecting Megatron by sacrificing 1 Decepticon, 7 rised up?
-	The part where the Omnimatrix key turned to dust and got back into one piece, how and what causes it to piece back together? Shia character's consciousness? Lol?

Not to mention, the theme song was sang by the same artist, Linkin Park. I like the song but I think it was a rather cliche act by Linkin Park to perform for the same movie franchise with an almost similar beat (doesn't it remind you of What I've Done?)

So again, I emphasize how much of a let down this sequel was.

Yes, proper translation is always hard to find but that is how I find the show to be like in Malay.

I watched this show about 3 weeks back, and yes, I'm totally going all out in movies these days. I don't really like action, but we just need a little bit of adrenaline pumping once in awhile.

What made this show interesting is that this to some fans may seem like a sequel, some as a prequel and others somewhere in between.

The story was considered to be the prequel for Tokyo Drift and a sequel to 2 Fast 2 Furious, or in some fan's case, prequel to the first Fast & Furious.

All in all, this show was worth the watch. I'm not that into action, but I rate this a 7.5 out of 10, so guys and fans out there, give it a go, it's worth while after all.

I just watched this show in HBO 3 to 4 weeks ago and I know what you guys must be wondering, a 'Chick Flick'?

Yeah ... getting soft here but honestly this show is worth watching if you want a good cry (I did however held some tears back). This show really took a spin off some actors and actresses famed characters from hit shows that they were from. Ryan Reynolds was first known in the Silver Screen as Berg in the comedy series Two Guys, a Girl and a Pizza Place, Rachel Weisz acted side by side with Keanu Reeves as the physcic sisters Angela and Isabel Dodson in Constantine.

The story follows up with a divorced father, Will Hayes (Ryan Reynolds) that seemingly seem to be just out of luck when it comes to finding the perfect one in his life. His daughter, Maya (Abigail Breslin) sought out to help him find his true love by hearing the story of how he met 3 girls in his life and which he fell in love with the most.

The movie in my opinion was a different approach to most of the other lovey-dovey stories out there, and I would rate it a 7 out of 10 as this show has a lot of charms to it, and it is worth well a watch.

I was watching this show on HBO yesterday:

Yeah I know it was a 2007 movie, but it got me thinking ... sometimes we just need to step out into a new environment to have a sudden awakening on the true meaning of living your life to the fullest. Perhaps it was a message I can imply to myself - perhaps it was a significant adherence I am to take as I reach the critical point in my life.

Anyway, I will give a quick plot of the story for those who wish to watch this(for whatever particular reason that you wish to watch):

Amanda(Cameron Diaz) is a successful movie-trailer maker that had just broken up with her boyfriend and wants to get away from her sudden cross-road life of L.A. to a place where she hope to sort things out during the coming holiday festivities of Christmas. She came across an ad for a house exchange program in Surrey, a little town in England, which belonged to Iris(Kate Winslet), a journalist which ironically suffers the same situation as Amanda. They made a deal to swap homes and lives for 2 weeks and looking forward to a holiday retreat from their norm. Amanda arrived in displeasure to find that her escape may not be what she had pictured. The night she arrived, she was intruded by Iris' brother, Graham(Jude Law). Iris was amazed by Amanda's settings and met a movie composer, Miles(Jack Black), a friend of Amanda's ex. Amanda and Iris begin to realise that being away from home and getting familiar with a different surrounding can be a good start to a new life.

Watch the show to find out what happens, but of course, it is a good ending and a very festive show worth watching during the coming Christmas holidays.

The show kind of cheered me up and the tiny flare of festive cheers ignites within me.

Happy Holidays people!

Just went to watch Resident Evil 3: Extinction last Saturday.

Okay, most of my friends were thinking "This is so gonna suck."

I'm like "This is my first Resident Evil movie", so I was sure I'd be surprise, or at least, think of it as a hype.

So like, it started with the 4 of us (Ben, Kenn, Dan and meh), we were thinking that all 4 of us would be in the same theatre. Ben and I got the 2 free tickets which he got free for doing absolutely, nothing (LOLZORS). He was supposed to pick up tickets at 6 p.m., but it soon delayed till 6.45 p.m. (talk about Malaysian's punctuality).

We got seperated from Dan and Kenn soon after due to different theatres. We were down at 7, which was reserved for the free ticket holders.

Okay, getting back to the movie. Well, to me, it was kinda nice (I'm the storyline kinda guy). It had okay effects and it had mild horror/explicit gruesome and gore, but the thing that shooked me most was the booming sounds (oh ... right, I was at a theatre). The sound always spark that chill that runs down my spine.

All in all, Resident Evil 3: Extinction is considered a typical not-so-action-but-not-so-gory film that's worth watching, once.
