Some movie reviews for you :) I watched the action-packed Salt early August. There's never a time when the action stops, and the rush is awesome. The movie revolves around Evelyn Salt (Jolie) who is accused as being a Russian Spy in the United States. The story then goes on to the plan of assassinating the Russian President as well as the US President. So who really is Salt? A Russian spy or an innocent victim? You must watch to find out :) Inception received mixed reviews from my friends. Some said it should be nominated as the movie of the year, where as some were just plain confused. I must say, you really have to pay attention throughout the movie or else you might get lost. The plot goes on about a team of people trying to steal vital information from people through dreams. But there is a counter offer by a affluent man to this team to plant ideas instead of stealing them. This then leads to a journey of entering dreams of the "victim". It gets intense when there are...

I managed to watch 2 movies in May and both were action-packed. First one was: Robin Hood It was not bad..but I was so exhausted when I watched it so I couldn't really enjoy it. The plot portrayed about how Robin became who is he as we know him to be. I don't really fancy Russel Crowe but I must say I didn't hate him here :) He was rather good! The other one I just watched it yesterday - Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time. I LOVED IT. As Maripasu said - It's filled with action from the beginning till the end. I used to play this video game ages ago - just the first version. I youtubed the game just now and saw how much it has evolved - apparently the movie stays true to the game. So yay :) Jake did a good job. I wonder if Jared Leto would've been a better Prince Dastan? More info: Robin Hood - the official site wouldn't load so here's another one Prince of Persia

I watched 2 movies in March (I think!). Caught Alice in Wonderland in 3D. The effects were not that fantastic but the story line was interesting. The movie shows Alice all grown up and falls into the hole back to 'Wonderland' again. This time it shows the Red and White Queen battling for the rightful ownership of ruling 'Wonderland/Underland'. I thought all the cast did a wonderful job in portraying such quirky characters. This movie - you gotta watch! Ok the poster looks a bit weird, but the plot is good and the animation is BETTER :) Very entertaining.

Taking advantage of a longer weekend, I actually watched 4 movies in a span of 5 days! Here are my reviews: First one was Percy Jackson. It's a book series from Rick Riodan. A friend of mine recommended the books a week ago. There are 5 books in total and the first book is Percy Jackson & the Olympians - The Lighting Thief. A movie was made based on the book. I liked it that they simplified the plot and I really enjoyed it. Movies can never be better than books but it was a fun watch nonetheless. :) Second movie I watched was Valentine's Day. It was light and easy to watch. It portrays how Love is for people of different ages. oh there are lots of big names in it too. We had no choice to watch this one as the line at the cinema was soooo long and most movies were sold out. My advice is not to watch this movie. It's so straightforward. Man ets bitten by a creature and changes into the beast himself every full moon and runs amok killing people and in the ends dies by the...

New Movie! Woody Allen has a new movie out and it's called Vicky Cristina Barcelona ..seriously, who came up with that title? It's a story about 2 friends called Vicky(Rebecca Hall) and Cristina (Scarlett Johansson) who went for a holiday in Barcelona (WHOA that's how they came up with the title!) There they meet an artist(Spaniard Javier Bardem) and they .. according to Wiki .."develop a relationship". But the thing is, this artist has a kerayzee ex-wife(Penelope Cruz). I'm more interested to watch the movie cuz it's set in Barcelona ! They were shooting the movie when I left Barcelona last July, and my friends who wanted to visit Parc Guell couldn't as they closed the park for the filming! You can click here to see my post on Barcelona . Here's the trailer..and there's a scene where Cruz kisses Johansson!! Helpful Sites: Vicky Cristina Barcelona Official Site Vicky Cristina Wiki

Batman: The Dark Knight - GO. WATCH. IT. In Loving Memory of Heath Ledger. I sometimes wonder if the character got to him in real life.. it would mean Joker won....sigh..but he was so bloody good!!

It's a good movie to watch..worth your bottom dollar =) The characters in Kung Fu Panda sans the lead Po the Panda, Shifu the raccoon, Master Crane & Master Mantis (toys courtesy of McD Happy Meal freebies - they're my cousins, not mine =p)
