Michael Jackson's This Is It

Even I'm not Michael Jackson's fans, but I do appreciate his work and of course I appreciate him by watching this movie... And I must say that this movie is Magnificent..!!! I can't imagine how hard Michael practice for his last-but-never-happened concert... He really wants to be involved in every segment, from choosing the backstage dancer, setting the right tune, and making the videos... And the other thing that amazed me is the camera video used to take this movie, even it is for Michael's private collection but the picture was very clear... It is like it was planned to be released on a movie... And for Michael's himself, his dance and his voice leaves me petrified on my seat while watching this movie... Really amazing... I just don't have another higher praise for him... The weak point of this movie is just this movie only a set of Michael Jackson's song that want to be performed in his last-but-never-happened concert, so people may be bored while watching it... And I do feel it when it comes to the song 'Beat It'... But overall, it's really worth to watch... A documentary movie that gave us memory of the King Of Pop, and of course a movie to show our appreciation to him... Goodbye Michael, may you rest well in Heaven... God Bless U...

Doghouse

Funny with a little bit of humorous gore chucked in.
A group of lads visit a town in the middle of no where only to discover that all its female inhabitants have turned into male hating zombies.
Fast paced and interesting from the start, this should give you a giggle a minute.

The Wild Man of the Navidad

Up

Well, I don't know what I should say on this movie, but I just can't give this movie a perfect score... To be honest, it is the second worst Pixar movie in the era 2000s after Cars... It is great, the story is very original, which is I thought would be a wrong decision if this movie hasn't got an Oscar nominee for Best Original Screenplay... But this movie is having too many nonsense thing... The idea flying up the house with a balloon maybe is a great idea, but to carried it with your shoulder, especially you're an old, very old man, is a nonsense thing... Even with a help from thousands of balloon and a kid... But I must say Pixar is did it again, another hit with an original story and a great visual effects... Well, if you don't disturbed with all the nonsense thing, you will be surprised because you will like it...

Cinema Paradiso (Nuovo Cinema Paradiso)

One of the best European film of all time!!! Guiseppe Tornatore makes a great, really great movie about friendship and everlasting love... Two big thumbs up too for the cast, especially for Salvatore Cascio as Salvatore Di Vita-child and Philippe Noiret as Alfredo... They're special friend relationship really makes me wanna cry, it's beautiful... And a thumbs up for Agnese Nano for playing the beautiful Elena in this movie, she's the perfect cast for this movie... Overall, I can considered it as one of the best European film of all time I've ever seen... But, too bad they had a pretty long duration, almost 3 hours, which is can make everyone who watching it could sleep in the middle of the movie.. But that thing didn't happened to me, because I really enjoyed this movie... And a great decision for the Academy Awards by giving this movie Best Foreign Language Film winner..

The Machinist

Angels & Demons

Well, before I saw this movie, my friends already told me that the movie version got a pretty big difference with the book, and that makes me a little disappointed, but my heart has no hesitation on it because I know Ron Howard was behind it... And what I saw after about 2 hours, I only have one word : "Magnificent!"... It is true that they have a pretty big difference from the novel, but for me who already read the novel for a couple times, I didn't annoyed with that... At least they still have the thrilling section and the twist they made is perfectly nice for the ending of this movie... Tom Hanks look more better in this movie that in Da Vinci Code, at least he had a haircut... Ayelet Zurer as Vittoria Vetra was ok, same as Ewan McGregor as Camerlengo who I doubt before... Overall, the movie's great, the story write with Dan Brown is brilliant, even they had a pretty big difference with the novel, but I'm ok with that... And the effects, it was stunning... If I haven't read the novel before, this movie could have a higher score and line up for my top 6 favorite movies of all time, but that already happened and I can't change that so this is the highest score I can give to a movie who was based on my favorite novel...

X-Men Origins - Wolverine

Well, X-Men Origins : Wolverine is one of the movie that I have a high expectation this year, but what happen after I saw this movie is it's just an usual action movies type, with a great special effect... Hugh Jackman still awesome played Wolverine, but I think he just shows the beast of him in here, not his acting... Another cast were okay, Liev Schreiber, Ryan Reynolds and Taylor Kitsch who only made a short appearance in this movie, which is disappointing me... Another thing that disappointing me is they didn't make a good story of this, they just thought about a great action types movie with a bunch of great effects, but got a weak story I think.. The act from the cast weren't awesome, because they don't look like they acting, it's just felt like this movie is really a stuntman movie... Overall, nice action type movie, but if it's to be compared to X-Men, it is still below the X-Men trilogy...
