MOVIE REVIEW: AVENGERS - AGE OF ULTRON

Image
The second installment of Avengers is actually tad bit disappointing. I guess I expected way more than what was shown in trailers. I personally bought it the movie with IMAX 3D hoping it will be a good movie. You will want to watch it to get to witness some cool superheroes in action but if you coming in for the plot or storyline, expectation please be low.  SPOILERS AHEAD! THE GOOD The whole movie is one cool arena of gadgets and also flashy superheroes power. I personally like that they have showed the combination of power of different superheroes, the likes of Captain America's shield and Thor's hammer creating a super shockwaves was indeed epic. If only they showed what Iron Man and Captain's shield can do. The superheroes suit is all modded and looks really good. The appearance of much awaiting Hulk Buster was also an epic moment. It was worth it watching 3D for that particular fight actually as we seen parts being flown in particularly to fix the a

MOVIE REVIEW: FAST & FURIOUS 7

I grew up watching Fast & Furious, the movie has it's high and low but with Fast & Furious 7,it is a must watch as it gives you the proper ending and closure. You will feel like it was a very heavy hearted goodbye to your own family member. All the actions and also the feelings which you will not want to miss, so get your ass off that chair and watch it now. Spoilers below:  THE GOOD The show is now more action packed as ever. That being said we have some of the stuns which keep your heart pumping and also make your knees weak as they traverse to continents to retrieve something for the US government. There are so much more hand-to-hand combat, while I love gun action, there is a well balance of guns and fist-to-fist combat. Tony Jaa definitely step up the action game, and Paul Walker had a good fist fight in the movie too. Cars flying is a norm and in this instalment pretty sure they crash more cars than they did in the previous (GTR & Impreza, I remember yo

KRABI ADVENTURES

Since I visited Hatyai, Thailand back in the year 2009/2010. It felt like home. Thailand is always known for their hospitality and the trip to Phuket in 2013 just assured me that hospitality is indeed their main business. Then in 2015, I am fortunate enough to have a 4 days 3 nights stay in Krabi with le gf.  Thanks to AirAsia zero fare promotion, we booked our ticket 6 month earlier before the actual event, and that 6 month surely did zoomed past us. All of a sudden, I vividly remembered I was at the hall packing up stuff to go on a trip, feeling half excited and another half lazy.  We took the Aerobus to KLIA2 which took exactly 1 hour from Paradigm Mall right up to the doors of KLIA 2. The tickets are RM10/trip. Since our bus was early at 8.30 am we took a taxi to Paradigm Mall, and shortly after boarding, I felt asleep instantly until we reached KLIA 2.  KLIA 2 is indeed a new upcoming shopping mall, with lots of choices of eateries and many other necessity, I can honestly

MOVIE REVIEW: INSURGENT

Image
The first movie was called Divergent and it was indeed  forgettable . Then came Insurgent, the second episode of the story. Was it good enough to watch in the cinema, or should you rather just take the money and watch Cinderella ? THE GOOD It continues almost instantly from the first part with good amount of flashback to help jog your memories on the first episode. The pacing on the story was good as we come to see they pickup where they left out after the first episode. Tris ( Shailene Woody ) played her role really exceptional in this movie as the main protagonist in this series. I personally felt the action in the movie was not too shabby at all, with lots of guns and occasionally some close quarter moves from Four ( Theo James ). THE BAD Although the pacing was good, I felt as though some of the parts was not related to each other at all. It felt like a filler then again I have not read the book therefore I have no idea if those scenes are actually there for
