Land Of The Lost (2009)

Land Of The Lost (2009)

I don't usually enjoy dumb comedy like this, but this is exception. This is a sci-fi adventure and it's comes with some dirty & crude contents. Thanks for Cha-Ka who spiced up the whole 101 mins. A must go for those who like dummies movies. "Journey to center of the earth" in comedy version.

Rating : 3½/5
Genre - Adventure, Thriller, Comedy

Duplicity (2009)

Duplicity (2009)

First view I felt this is something in between "The Mexican" and "Mr & Mrs Smith". Julia tried to make a return however didn't get as before and Clive didn't play too well as before like in "Derailed". I'm so irritated by the flopping scene that's not in chronological event.

Rating : 3/5

Echelon Conspiracy (2009)

Echelon Conspiracy (2009)

Quite impressed as I thought this was a B~C grade movie. Felt similar to Stealth and Eagle Eye. If you enjoyed that, you will like this too. Both Shane & Tamara are potentially the next rising star then only playing role in series like ER and Gossip Girl. Looking forward for their next production. 105 mins of cyber-tech-suspense thriller lets me see more side of Prague & Moscow.

Rating : 3½/5
Genre : Action, Thriller, Crime, Mystery

Ghost of Girlfriends Past (2009)

Ghost of Girlfriends Past (2009)

Typical chic-flic love comedy but probably dedicated to guys audience more this time. Many things to learn for both male and female especially those who been thru trauma and shut down completely. Well mixed of different kind of screwed up love, unfaithful and fairy-tale love. I last seen Douglas on "Disclosure (1994)" right after "Basic Instinct (1992)" with Sharon Stone.

Rating : 3½/5
Genre : Romance, Comedy, Fantasy

Public Enemies (2009)

Public Enemies (2009)

I managed to finished 65% of show as I dozed off. History + Depression Era movie is really not my type and I should have see it coming. Not doing very well worldwide overall. Personally, nothing more spectecular than just 140mins of bank robbery done by political mafia and police gun fight in sepia and slow pace.

Rating : 2½/5
Genre : Crime, Drama,
Actor : Johnny Depp, Christian Bale, Marion Cotillard, Billy Crudup

Somewhere In Time (!980)

Somewhere in Time (1980)

A must watch from 80's Classic list. Enchanted, Innocent and Powerful. Reeve is more than just Mr Clark Kent. Simple yet irreplaceable, Loves transcend everything and I called this "Titanic" of 80's. The score "Rhapsody On A Theme Of Paganini" by Chet Swiatkowski is simply amazingly TIMELESS & other excellant score by John Barry - I called it James Horner of 80's (Oscar Winner for Original Score).

Rating : 4½/5
Genre : Romance, TT, Fiction
Actor : Christopher Reeve, Jane Seymour, Christopher Plummer

The Taking Of Pelham 1 2 3 (2009)

The Taking Of Pelham 1 2 3 (2009)

Disappointed - sadly to say as I was expected more action from this real-event based movie. Probably not the famous collection for both lead Travolta & Washington. Some scene are actually lag and not like it is "slow-mo". Especially when train is riding high speed, it is taken in "dizzy" camera style. Go or no go for the movie, your call...

Rating : 3/5
Actor : John Travolta, Denzel Washington, John Turturro

Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince (2009)

Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince (2009)

Pathetic but true that 3 out of 6 sequels actually failed to meet my expectations and caused disappointment to the audience. Also heard that last sequel HP7 will be split to 2 episodes. Can't imagine if HP7 will be better than ever but I'm sure it will still be box office top 10 grosser. Can anyone tell me what's going on with Hermione and Ron? And since when there's a Ginny in the movie?! This sequel confused me so much that I actually doubt if I might have miss the previous sequel.

Rating : 3/5
Genre : Fiction, Fantasy, Magic, Epic

27 Dresses (2008)

27 Dresses (2008)

Typical chic-flic romance comedy, personally I thinks that it's more like promoting wedding planner industry than romance codey. Overall enjoyable, and worth only if you got it for free screening. Story is quite unrealistic, and looks like typical Disney production. Cinderellatic + Fairy-tale love.

Rating : 3/5
Genre : Romance, Drama
Actor : Katherine Heigl, James Marsden

Mulholland Falls (1996)

Mulholland Falls (1996)

This movie gives view on how LAPD deals with crime back in 50's. A not to be miss for Connelly lover. A typical political power over law crime story. This is definitely an adult movie, especially for people who work for the official, learn well from this lesson and avoid being into this kinda situation in real life. All actors actually well-acted.

Rating : 3/5
Genre : Crime, Thriller, Drama
Actor : Nick Nolte, Melanie Griffith, Jennifer Connelly

Lola rennt (1998)

Run Lola Run (1998)

The reason I view this is becos of it's popularity due to Sundance winner of Audience Award back in 1999. Sadly to say, not my cup of German tea, thoug original script.

Rating : 2½/5
Genre : Crime, Thriller
Actor : Franka Potente, Moritz Bleibtreu, Herbert Knaup.

Obsessed (2009)

Obsesses (2009)

Typical bitch-fight movie over seduce and revenge storyline. A down for Beyoncé from Dreamgirls, Ali Larter deliver a better performance in this movie. Personally I consider this a low-budget movie which market for female viewers only probably.
