The MOVIE REVIEW Thread


Recommended Posts

Just watched Interstellar last night and i give 4.5/5 or 9/10

 

Advice sa mga manonood, kung di kayo fan ng Nolan movies or space sci-fi opera, better read the internet for plot/storyline first before you watch this unless baka mag iba ang pagtanggap nio. Medyo mahirap i catch up, you need to watch it twice to dig deep to the movie story.

 

But easily this is one of the best sci-fi movie of all time..

 

Christopher Nolan at his best!

If I Stay

 

Starring Chloe Grace Moretz (Hit Girl of Kick-Ass)

 

A movie adaptation of a popular book

Genre: Romance/Drama

 

Rating: 5/10

 

Its about a love story of contrasting personalities, a boy rocker who is starting to make it big with his band and a simple girl who came from a family of rockers also BUT is completely different and is in love (and pretty good) in playing the cello.

 

Acting wise - Fair

Plot - Very shallow and predictable

The Hobbit 3: The Battle of Five Armies

 

8.5/10

 

HIGHLIGHTS:

> First Middle Earth movie with less than 3 hours running time.

> Finally linked the hobbit series to the LOTR series through this movie

> A surprising look at Sauron was revealed (SPOILER ALERT)

> Legolas is AWESOME as always

 

Pros:

> Very good battle scenes, more detailed than previous LOTR war scenes.

> Element of love was finally showcased in this movie

> Running time is just enough for the entire movie will become so boring if extended like the others

> More bizarre characters presented (specially on the orc side)

> With more humor injected than Jackson's previous middle earth movies

 

Cons:

> The war scene gets tiring to watch at some point

> (SPOILER ALERT) The Thorin mental drama is less effective and predictable

> Gandalf looked weaker during the war vs the orc's considering the fight he gave sauron on the 2nd movie

> Very simple ending (un climactic)

> Non-convincing defeat of the Orcs (considering their very large army)

^if you want good pinoy movies na maayos ang kwento then go see pisay, ilo ilo, metro manila at ibang indie movies - sulit na sulit bec of the acting and story-telling alone. Yung tipong worth keeping talaga even for future watching. As much as possible I avoid the mainstream ones lalo na yung mga MMFF kasi yun yung mga mabababaw at talagang pang-libangan lang talaga - not that I'm ridiculing or discrediting them, sure they are good in their own right pero kasi nakaka-bobo lang panoorin; I'm sure I'm not the only that sees this.

 

Pansin ko pa, pinoy movies that were directed or written by foreign outlets are usually the good ones, pag pinoy directors laging predictable and sticks with the same format which the producers and networks know na kikita sila. Expected mo na yung slapstick humor, tapos konting sampalan, romcom formula of "you and me against the world" ang tema, agawan ng kabit at syempre, hindi mawawala ang song/dance sequences.

 

At bago pa may mag-react or kumontra sa mga nasabi ko, IMHO lang naman po ito at sa huli, mauuwi pa rin sa kanya-kanyang taste yan. :rolleyes:

Para pala hindi ako OT, just watched "The judge" starring robert downey Jr., bagay sa kanya ang lawyer role as his witty lines suits his character as always. I won't say much about the story but it is definitely engaging. (Good)

 

The Interview - I found the humor in this one to be crass and shallow, definitely not worth the hype. Too much publicity was put into this one pero it just leaves a bad taste. Save yourself the trouble and just stream this one, don't bother going out to see this in theaters para di sayang sa pamasahe at oras.
