movies

yo! it has been a while since my last movie review. i watched two movies that i think it's worth to be recommended. (screw New Moon please!)

so first, AVATAR.



i have to say, this is the most fascinating movie that i watch in year 2009. there's a lot of other movies i watched before, but this is indeed the most satisfying movie i watched in cinema. okie i watched in mid night, so it was torturing as cinema was freezing cold. so i was shivering and praying that the movie can end faster.

anyway, the graphic was good. u would be captivated by how unique the plants and biodiversity in the movie. because it was in the other planet, the director can allow his imagination go wild, and TADDA! the very awesome forest with gigantic plants, animals, plants that can illuminate in the dark, blue tall natives, dragon/birds and so on.

fyi, i kinda like the dragon/birds in the movie. one, coz they have no feathers. two, they are really huge and aggressive. three, it look so chunt flying on air with the dragon/birds! somehow it reminds me of Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. the dragon kinda look similar. is it because of the graphic animation that make them look almost the same?

i have one of my favorite scene. when they are appealing for power from their Eywa (mother of nature) to rescue one of the human, all of them sat on the ground and chant some spell. the scene was very impressive! everyone moves their body synchronously, and WOW. i dono hw to describe that, but it was completely mesmerizing! i can feel their spirit in there.

besides, i have a feeling that the story in this movie refers to lotsa natives in African. like how they pray after they kill the animals and so on. though the storyline is kinda predictable, but what makes it worth for the price is the graphic and sound effect. i really like their sound effect. some language that i din noe, makes it sound more mysterious. and i LOVE mysterious stuff. muahahaha. wana download it later. or few days later. if im nt mistaken, the moral value behind this is about environment and stop fighting against power.

but the beginning was too draggy, and that was the only critic that i could think of. feel like watching it again with 3D! must be damn chunt! yayyy!

ps: i love the ending. straight to the point without further elaboration. GOOD!
pps: Na'vi = Ivan!

i rate it 9 over 10

and next, Sherlock Holmes.



i have read the novels before. and i would say, it's not what i have expected. in a good way though.

i have never thought Watson can look so gorgeous! wowww, when i read the novel, i pictured Watson as a ordinary looking guy, with specs, gentle doctor that helps Sherlock Holmes anytime. but, this Watson was much more good looking than i thought! and he's good in fighting too! me likey!



okie, back to the topic.

this movie was okie. lotsa fighting scene. i kinda like Robert Downey Junior as Sherlock Holmes. he was mischievous, but stunningly brilliant too! damn observant, can picture every single details easily. okie fine, maybe this is my personal favorite towards a detective character as i love detective stories. but Robert done his job well too! he portrayed Sherlock Holmes successfully, i think.

there's some scene which i couldn't remember that just remind me of Pirates of the Carribean. i think it must be the fighting on the port scene, and the bridge where the Lord Blackwood died. couldn't remember, but i suddenly see Jack Sparrow in Sherlock Holmes. how funny eh?

though sometimes i cnt really get their English accent, as it was too slangty, but their lines were humorous. funny la! u gotta watch it, or else u wun get what i said.

two things i really like about this movie. one, the sound effect. it was really interesting how they can insert some funky and old school musics at some scene that looks totally unrelated, and surprising how the songs matches the scene. the songs match! wow, i kinda salute the director or who-so-ever that in charge of that now. creative.

and i like the slow motion during some fighting scene. at least, we can see the movement clearly without pondering where and which part the person hit.

overall, i rate it 8 over 10

there's something, that beyond your control.
