Aliens Vs. Predator: Requiem

Aliens Vs. Predator: Requiem 2 out of 4 stars



Aliens Vs. Predator: Requiem is directed by Greg Strause and Colin Strause who are the 1st time director. The poster of this movie, it looks cool but after you seen this movie you will be dissapointed, for who are the action movie fan. In this movie, the action sequences is great but the last fight between the PREDALIEN and PREDATOR are not intense enough. For the storyline, for me is quite draggy and you will feel the story are jumping around "TOO MUCH". Other than that, this movie is called AVP but there are not many VS. in this movie. This movie will make you feel like Humans Vs. Aliens more than Aliens Vs. Predator. For the audiences who expect the great storyline, and intense action they will be dissapointed. For the audiences who expect blood and gore, this movie delivered it (The trailer already show all the blood and gore scene). But I still prefer the Paul W. Anderson version of AVP

The movie which I HATED in 2007

2007 is coming to the end. In 2007 Hollywood produce alot alot of movie that i like and dislike. Here are the list of the movie which i HATED in 2007 (didn't include the movie which i haven't watch).

1. Hannibal Rising
Overall: "This prequel is awfully silly and boring!" "This movie totally miscast"

2. Pathfinder
Overall: "Action is nice, but story sucks!" "This director can make you jump out from the sit
but cannot make the story move."

3. The Condemned (Most hated)
Overall: "A Hollywood toxic waste." "It is a souless film, this movie has no reason to exist."

4. The Invisible
Overall: "The story sucks, the acting sucks, the plot also sucks!", "

5. Fantastic Four: Rise Of The Silver Surfer
Overall: " The film is too short for a big story."

6. Rush Hour 3
Overall: "Whole movie feels like 2 hours long instead of 1 hr 30 mins." "If it is Jackie Chan
movie, we will expect the action, but in this movie humor more than action."

7. The Last Legion
Overall: "This movie also totally miscast!"

I Am Legend

I Am Legend, 3 out of 4 stars.


Will Smith stars in this mind blowing thriller in "I Am Legend".

I Am Legend, adaptation of Richard Matheson's 1954 novel "I Am Legend" and remake of "The Last Man On Earth" in 1964 and "The Omega Man" in 1971. This movie is directed by Francis Lawrence who brought you "Constantine" in 2005 which contain alot of CGI effects. In this movie, it also contain alot of visual effects which is very eye candy, even the chasing animal scene also have to use visual effects. Because contain alot of visual effect, so this movie budget is about 150million dollars. From the beginning of the movie, the story going very well, fascinating and fun to watch but the ending is the problem, "Abit short" actually. The acting, is nice especially Will Smith (of course) and the dog act very well too (the dog is well trained by the trainer, and didn't contain CGI which is very good). Besides that, this movie contain top-notch action sequences that is memorable.

This movie is too CGI dependent, and after watching it some question will raises from our mind.

Overall: "A great movie which is very touching, scary, funny, and thrilling."
