Movie Reviews IV

Dear all.... Sorry once again for the super delay in this Movie Review IV.Many incidents had happened which kept me pretty busy. Well, maybe got to change my title from movie reviews to "Movie Ratings"! haha.. Anyways, there goes!

1) Casino Royale : James Bond is a new recruit at the MI6 team. He's reckless and careless and on a mission. After just earning his 00 status with his first 2 kills he is sent to the Bahamas where he is to verse Le Chiffre in a game of Texas Hold 'Em Poker. Although Bond must ensure that Le Chiffre's death comes at the hands of his own people.

My Ratings and Views : 6/10. As mention above, this movie tells you how Bond got his 00 status. There is no bulletproof and remote controlled BMWs, no mini gadgets and stuff. Its just how he "solved" his cases with everything he could without using his bains... The start of the show was Bond, hoping and jumping around, trying to apprehen a bad guy. Towards the end of the movie, he become "Chow Yuan Fatt"... Became the ultimate, God of Gamblers... Can renamed this show as, "007, The Beginning."


2) Colic : Pear and her boyfriend, Pongpop, moved to the suburbs for a more relaxed lifestyle after learning of her pregnancy. Soon, their son, Pan was born and everything about him seems normal: except for the ear-splitting screams. Pan will cry and scream non-stop everyday and was eventually diagnosed as having colic, a sickness which is marked by chronic irritability and screaming. Months past and Pan’s Colic didn’t recede in fact it got worse and no-one seemed to know why. This is when Pear began to notice bizarre phenomenon which occurred while Pan was crying and what they are about to find out will haunt them for the rest of their lives….

My Rating and Views : 7/10. Quite a nice movie to catch. Horror movies story plots are standard. They are more or less the same. The only horror movie which had a slight twist is Shutter, a thai horror movie. For horror movies, as long as it made your hair stand, it achieved its goal. Watch this movie with a very dear friend and her family members. From their reactions, it say it all. a nice one to catch. OH YA! before i forget, there is this part where the husband is talking on his handphone, He said this word, "Kan Ni Nar!" In the subtitle, it shows "call u back"...Hahaha...i laugh and laugh throughout the whole show after that. Catch that!

3) A Battle Of Wits : A lavishly-produced historical drama from China, A Battle of Wits tells the complex story of a lone warrior whose mission is to save a besieged walled city from the savage attack of a 25,000 strong army. Late in the 3rd century, when China comprised seven rival kingdoms, Ge-Li – an remarkable savior in rags – stands alone in an endangered city waiting to fulfill his destiny. It is an impossible battle however you look at it. But here is a lone man willing to climb every mountain and cross every river just to get to the city of Liang with only one aim: to deliver Liang from the overwhelming threat of the Kingdom of Zhao in her battle against the Kingdom of Yan. Ge Li is the last Mohist in the Warring States period of China. Facing him in the field are thousands of swift chariots ad many thousands more mail-clad soldiers. His battle will be the loneliest battle in the history of war. No battle has ever been this unmatched in strength. Would this one man alone be able to change the destiny of Liang? On the surface, this is a battle for which bloodshed would be inevitable. But in reality it is also a battle of wits. A struggle between power and desire: between a ruler and those being ruled. A message of anti-war through war itself.

My Rating and Views : 9/10. A nice movie on War and Strategies. In OCS, we always want to teach the cadets what is "channeling method." This movie says it all. Nice plot but the ending about anticlimax... Its all about Love... Watch it and you guys will know what i'm talking about.There is this foreigner who was caught and at last used by Andy Lau. Listen to his conversations... Haha....Damn funny... Well, I watched this show twice. Says it all.

4) Deathnote 2 - The Last Name : Light joins the task force searching for Kira in an effort to avert suspicion from himself and also, to get rid of L. The mystery deepens as another Death Note with its shinigami, is brought into the human world. A second and third Kira complicates the mystery. Making things even more unpredictable are the ‘Eyes of Death’, given to the second Kira, enabling the owner to know the true identity and lifespan of any person. Who would get hold of the ‘Trump Card’ which would determine the outcome of events? And who will be the Last name?

My Rating and Views : 10/10. Yes folks. Deathnote 2 pretty well sums up the whole thing. The characters, plots and storyline are just great! I just love L. His smartness and wits just impressed people. I'm already downloading the animations! Light is kinda smart, in the way he can manipulate the whole thing and caused the death of a Deathgod. He could have won, but he miscalculated.... watch it, enjoy it!!!

Well, there are many other movies which i've already watched. I will keep you guys updated! Many things to get sorted out today. If got the time, i'll blog later or tomorrow...
