Saw III

Saw III, A+
Genres: Suspense/Horror and Sequel
MPAA Rating: R for strong grisly violence and gore, sequences of terror and torture, nudity and language.
Shawnee Smith and Tobin Bell star in this smart, bloody and gory horror film, "Saw III".

Suffering? You haven't seen anything yet. ---Jigsaw. Saw III, directed by Darren Lynn Bousman who brought you Saw II in 2005. He is the first time director when he make Saw II. Saw III is the best in Saw trilogy. In this movie, it content many bloody scene, so warning for the people who don't like to watch horror movie, "Please don't watch!" For people who like to watch horror movie, yeah "try this!". There is a twist in the end of the movie same as Saw, and Saw II. The story line in this movie is good. The visual effect also quite good, but acting....almost perfect. After watching Saw and Saw II, you might have many questions about the movie, hmm....Saw III will answer it all. Besides that, the way jigsaw was testing the people is more gross than other two movies.


Saw III too focus on gore more than the first two. The acting still have to improve.

Overall: "One of the best halloween film!", "Best horror film of the year!"

Happy Feet

Happy Feet, A-
Genres: Action/Adventure, Kids/Family, Musical/Performing Arts and Animation
MPAA Rating: PG for some mild peril and rude humor.

Rude humor? Haha, i agree.
Warning: This movie will cause toe tapping.

Happy Feet, directed by George Miller, Judy Morris (II), and Warren Coleman. This animation will give you an enjoyable ride! The story line of this animation is simple and easy to understand, besides that it full of emotions and the music is wonderful. Visual effect is nice and the sceneries are breathtaking. The peguins are so so so cute!!
This animation drives home the message about mankind's disastrous decisions that could or may destroy the pristine world of the penguins, seals, whales and other creatures that inhabit the southernmost continent on our planet.

This animation contained many sexual references.
"Right from the beginning the song that Norma Jean (Mumble's mom)sang is semi-explicit. She sings "X" instead of "Sex" in one of Prince's old songs. Later on, there's a scene where Mumble and Gloria (one of Mumble's friends) are falling and they roll on each other in completely noticeable sexual position" - by Chiniaberry. Besides that, it not suitable for kids. Hmm....for kids movies, there is no need to have ethnic and sexual steoreotyping and a political message.

Overall: "The best animation of the year."

Casino Royale

Casino Royale, B+.
Genres: Action/Adventure, Thriller, Adaptation and Sequel
MPAA Rating: PG-13 for intense sequences of violent action, a scene of torture, sexual content and nudity.
Daniel Craig stars in this new bond movie, "Casino Royale".

Bond, James Bond. Casino Royale is based on the first of lan Fleming's novel. The movie is directed by Martin Campbell, the one who directed Pierce Brosnan 1st James Bond movie, "Golden Eye" in 1995. In this movie, Daniel Craig as James Bond. Although it is not Pierce Brosnan as James Bond, but it is still a great movie. The action sequences, visual effect, sound effect overall is good. The direction and the story line is fair. This movie is different from the previous James Bond film which contain alot of great technology or some crazy stuff, but this movie didn't have it at all (which is good to fit the originality of the James Bond). Eventhough previous James Bond film is nice, but i like "casino royale" alot.

Overall: "A newcomers make this franchise come to life again!" "One of the best Bond film"
