Street Fighter: The Legend Of Chun-Li

They are warriors, some of whom possess extraordinary abilities, all of whom are determined to see their side prevail. Some fight for us; the others for unlimited power. Now, they are preparing for the ultimate battle - of terror versus beauty, light versus darkness, and good versus evil.

One of the awaited movie for this year. The movie was about Chun-Li (powerful warrior) on her adventure for justice. The storyline was well written, although I had doubt of that for the first few minutes of the movie. The movie was shot at Bangkok, Hong Kong, California and Vancouver.

The martial arts are not like anything I have seen before. The first battle scene itself was amazing and other battle scenes was even better. Kristin Kreuk's acting was pretty good. She portrayed Chun Li perfectly. Another well performed character was Nash, played by Chris Klein. He's the most hilarious.

One of the best part of the movie are the visual effects, especially the glowing energy ball created by Ken and Chun Li. It was cool. :D

Her strength. Her fury. Her vengeance. Will become legend. The movie really delivers what the tagline and trailer promised. It's just few days of release and I have heard of sequel for the movie. If it's confirmed, then it would be great. Maybe Ryu would be featured too. In fact, Ryu was mentioned at the end of the movie.

Rating: 7/10

Yes Man

An enjoyable movie for December 2008. There's no other movie I'm interested in watching this month. I saw the trailer for this movie, about month ago and was glad to have new comedy movie featuring Jim Carrey. Other than him, there are Zooey Deschanel and Bradley Cooper. It's great to have those supporting casts, they are hilarious. About Zooey Deschanel, she's charming. By the way, I love her singing scene.

This movie makes the audience to feel good. If they like Jim Carrey's previous movies, they will surely like this one. In my opinion, it's the best one from him. He will take guitar lesson and he will sing too. The singing part was the most pleasant. It's not only the comedy that makes "Yes Man" fantastic but also the attachment of musical scenes.

It's really different from any previous movie from Jim Carrey. Well, this movie has good message, which is "Live your life. You will not regret it." =)

Max Payne

Max Payne

I thought "Max Payne" supposed to be about angels. It turns out not about angels at all, LOL. It's about detective, mystery and all of that kind. There was shootings but not much (I heard the games are about shooting) and not much actions either. However, the visual effects are cool. Most probably that's the reason that made this movie look interesting.

I have not played "Max Payne" games before. Not everyone that loves the game loves the movie as well. I read the plot of the game and found it's almost the same with the storyline of the movie, there are differences but not much. There are sequel to the game called "Max Payne 2 (The Fall of Max Payne)." Maybe they will attempt to make sequel for the movie too, no confirmation about that one.

I was fan of detective stories when I was young. I used to read comics and novels about detective, mystery and all of that kind. So, I'm quite glad that I went for this movie because it brought me back to things I loved about during those days. =D

The Devil is building his army. Max Payne is looking for something that God wants to stay hidden. That is what makes him more dangerous. - Lincoln DeNeuf

Eagle Eye

Eagle Eye

When I saw the trailer, I was not interested. Then I came across an article on the newspaper mentioning it's good movie to watch. I viewed some reviews on the Internet and most of them are positive. So, I had myself convinced to go for it.

The movie turns out to be worth watching and I should not have judged it based on the trailer. There are plenty of awesome action scenes, though most of them reminded me of "Die Hard 4." Shia LaBeouf and Michelle Monaghan were great, with some humors too. The coolest thing about "Eagle Eye," it's fast and exciting from the start until the end.

The concept of "Eagle Eye" is quite interesting. Steven Spielberg brought his imagination into the future high developed technology. It's the time when technology and computers are able to control the world and track every moves of every human. It might not happen in real life yet it's good concept for fictional action movie.

While watching "Eagle Eye," I felt like I am watching summer movie. =)
