Third Times a Charm for Chronicle of Narnia: The Voyage of the Dawn Treader

Photobucket

The third film for the movie franchise Narnia. The third movie however is minus Susan and Peter Pevensie but the addition of their cousin Eustace was enough to replace the two. The Voyage of the Dawn Treader takes us to a journey with Prince Caspian trying to find the 7 lost lords of Narnia. On his journey he met Edmund, Lucy and of course Eustace who for me was the bright part of the movie, the scene he have with Reepicheep(the mouse if you remember him in the 2nd movie) was funny.

The effect was also good, although I'm not a fan of the 3D in the film, the 2D is well enough for me. The serpent scene was great. The film though was short compare to the first two movies but its still good enough for me, and a great flick for the family to watch.

INFESTATION

Photobucket

I was not even sure to rent this one, just looking at the cover made me think maybe this was an old movie, with a new cover in it hahahahaha, but what the heck, i love monster movie and all.

Photobucket

After watching the movie, well it was great, kinda like the "Eight Legged Freaks" movie i saw lot long ago, although that movie was way better than this one. "Infestation" is a science fiction horror movie, what I like about this movie is that unlike other monster movie wherein you can only see the monster at the end or only part of it, in "Infestation" you get to see the monster early!! and the special effects are also good in this movie.

The only downfall for me is the ending. Maybe they are planning a sequel for this one. But to sum things up, its a nice movie to rent and watch with your friends.

CASE 39

Photobucket

Case 39 centers on an idealistic worker who saves an abused 10 year old girl from her parents only to discover that the girl is not as innocent as she thinks. Playing the worker Emily Jenkins is Renee Zellweger who did a decent acting on her part but for me credit should be given to Jodelle Ferland who plays Lillith Sullivan.

PhotobucketPhotobucket

I mean the girl was cute but scary, especially the part when she confronted Douglas (Bradley Cooper) and also the scene between her and Emily, when she tried to count Emily to get out from under the bed.

Photobucket

My only disappointment on this film is the way Lillith was killed , I mean she can break down a door with several locks but cant hold off Emily when she was being pushed down while the car is drowning. The movie is a decent thriller with some great scare but still not above the movie Orphan which for me is still the best. But still this movie would not be a disappointment if you buy a copy or even rent one.

CARRIERS

Photobucket

It was kind of dragging at first, the slow pace of the movie sometimes would make you go to sleep. But the story of the movie itself was nice. It has a lot to say about being human, on how far you would go to save a love one? are you willing to sacrifice your love one just to survive. A movie that if in reality would test your bonds with the person you love and care. But for me its still a nice movie to watch.

BITCH SLAP

Photobucket

I just rented this one because of the cover hahahaha shame on me. But to my surprise it was an entertaining movie, entertaining to the point that you got this 3 hot babes Hel, Trixie and Camero beating the living shit out of each other and some hot steamy scene from Hel (Erin Cummings) and Trixie (Julia Voth).

Just don't mind the over used of green screen in the movie. Just focus on the babe. Just stop being a critique for once and just turn off your brains and droll over the ladies. My suggestion for this one, just rent it and watch it with some friends.

CHANGELING

Photobucket
I rented this movie because of two things, Angelina Jolie and Clint Eastwood. The movie is about a single mom (Angelina Jolie) who after she returned home from work, discovered her son Walter is missing. She tried to called the police for help to find her son but to no avail. Then after several months the police claimed they have found her son. But upon meeting the boy, she immediately notice that the boy the police has bought is not her son, but the police insisted that the boy they have found is her son.
Photobucket
Angelina Jolie played the part of the mother beautifully, showing emotions of a mother not quitting to find her child. The movie though runs about 2 hours and a half, but with the story like this, you wouldn't even notice how long the movie was.

You should definitely get a copy of this, or rent it if your tight on the budget. It a nice movie to watch.

VERTIGE

It was a nice movie, at the start if i may say so. The movie is like "Wrong Turn" combine maybe with "Cliffhanger" or "The Hills have Eyes". Why I like the first few minutes of the movie? because of the breathtaking scenes, I just thought wow maybe this movie is worth seeing . Then came the 2nd half of the movie where I think the writer just ran out of ideas and just thought hmmm maybe lets just copy "Wrong Turn" because hey where at the woods. For horror fans out there, it would be better just to rent this one.

TRIANGLE

I was hesitant to rent this one but since i like thriller type of movie so its ok, and I'm glad i did. The movie is like the combination of Death Ship and the Twilight Zone. After watching it, i had to watch it again just to really understand it. But still it still raises so many questions on my mind. This movie is great and presents a challenge to the minds of the audience who will watch it. If you like the series of Twilight Zone, then you wont be disappointed with this one. Its mind boggling, that will keep you thinking, guessing and guessing.

ARMOUR OF GOD

My top Jackie Chan movie, why i like it? because this is the time where action scenes are done with out the CG effects that is being used today. It shows Jackie Chan's acrobatics and fight skills and had some of the best fighting scenes i had ever seen, especially the scene against the 4 women in high heels. And this was also the film that almost killed Jackie Chan because of a stunt that went wrong, which can be seen on the end of the movie where all stunts and bloopers will be shown. If your a fan of Jackie's movie today better see this classic film of his. Oh and by the way i heard rumors that there will be a third installment of this movie. I just hope it will top the first 2.

2012

What i like about this movie, is the effects, the thrill and the action. Don't mind the story, the character depth cause you'll just end up having a headache. Just try focusing on the action and the abundant of special effects the movie brings. Although I hope they would have given much time to explain the Mayan Calendar which was mention in the movie. Watch this movie with friends and turn off for the meantime the movie critic in you, and just watch famous landmarks getting destroyed, hero outrunning mass destruction. Because if you decide to turn on that movie critic in you, the movie which runs almost 3 hours would be a torture. But if you turn it off just like I said earlier you wouldn't notice those long hours.

ASTRO BOY

Wow i really like this movie, although the story is far far away from the story of Astro that i have seen on anime series. But for the kids today who is not familiar with Astro Boy they're going to have a blast with this one. The movie brings values such as friendship, responsibility which can be nice for kids. The animation was great, the fighting scene was nice too. But for those die hard Astro Boy fans who have followed this character from the start would be really mad since the origin of Astro is way of from the original one. But still for me, i still like it.
