Chapter 5 : Movie Review

Woah! This week is all about catching up movies for me! Here we go :


Finally, this movie is out in Indonesia as I had been waiting for it. If you are big fans of cowboy / western movies, this one may not be for you. This remake The Magnificent seven is a light cowboy movie with a simple story telling and entertaining. The story about the seven outlaws who protected the town of Rose Creek which was under control by Bartholowmew Bogue. 

I do enjoyed the movie for a simple reason : I like western movies but I hate the fact that most of them are too long with too much conversation and less actions. The Magnificient seven could had been packed with more actions and more twist while recruiting the other six members but they acted good but not as awesome as they could have been - ordinary! Entertaining and light western movie with some good scenes and I rated 7.5/10 


Yeah, I do watch selective Bollywood movie with sub-titles for sure. People praised Salman in this movie and I agreed. I think this is one of his best performance that he aced it. A movie under Yash Raj Films tells a story about Sultan Ali Khan's career as a wrestling champion who won several gold and his personal life. His career took over his life just like his love toward Aarfa Hussain that made him who he was. Every beautiful things turned into nightmare the day where they lost their son. 

Then, Sultan is given a second chance to build a new reputation for himself and the tournament's prize money would fulfill his dream of opening a blood bank. Touchy and tears did drop with 10/10 rated given by me. Totally a must to watch and get ready for the tissue!


OMG! I think this is the first korean movie I ever watched and this movie was hyped. This south korean's zombie movie is about a father (Seek-Woo) whose daughter Su-An wanted to visit her mother in Busan as her birthday gift. The relationship between the father and daughter wasn't close and she begged him to go to Busan the next day.  I watched this movie while working but ended up kept my eyes throughout the whole movie. 

It was a bit boring at first but the thrill arised after the group consits of a baseball player , homeless man , pregnant wife and her husband, both of them, and a grandma were seperated. The father, the husband, and the baseball player had to go through several carts full of zombies to save the rest and go to the safest cart. I think this movie deserved 7/10 and the last few minutes were totally flopped.

Unfortunately, I didn't get a good review for this movie but I watched it anyway. It is funny, not that entertaining, a bit boring with really weak storyline. The characters are adorable and super cute even the angry bunny (snowball). The movie does get me wonder what's in the mind of my paws babies when I left them and how the oldest son felt when I brought home the four paw brothers and a sister for him. And I admitted Joe behaves very well and welcomed everyone - proud of him!

One day, Max's owner brought a new friend for him, Duke and Max felt Katie didn't love him enough and didn't give as much attentions as he used to get. Both of them fought for attentions and Duke tried to abandon Max in the alley but both of them ended up attacked by a gang of cats. The cats removed their collars and leave them to be caught by Animal Control. And so the story began and Max's friends started to look for him. 5/10 for me due to a very weak story that made the movie is cute but not too funny, adorable but not watchable for second time.

And lastly, I'm curious about the Pilot of MacGyver - my childhood tv series, favorite of everyone in the 90's including my mom. I tried to focus but failed, the pilot isn't interesting enough - disappointed. I didn't feel as if I watched the MacGyver, I was once knew. The remake didn't impress me at all even they promoted like as if this series would be awesome!

I rather felt like watching a short-action movie instead of a series. The old MacGayver I remembered wasn't stylish, more serious, intellegent, charming and independent! But who am I to judge at the premier, perhaps, it would be better for the next couple of the episodes, but I think I'll just be waiting until good review comes up. Don't bother to watch!

Chapter 51 : Movie Reviews : Spiderman & Despicable Me 3

I love it and I wasn't expecting to enjoy the movie right from the start. I think (as I'm not a spiderman fans), this homecoming is the best. It shows the weaknesses, the strengths, the eagerness and the snobby attitudes of a superhero that all superhero thinks they are the best and can do many things with their costumes and weapons but strength comes from within and failure makes them better hero.   I enjoy on how they introduce the Spiderman, the new suit. The combo of Spiderman and Ironman is perfect although I wish Ironman scenes could be more ha-ha-ha. I like everything about this movie; entertaining, exciting, and silly too.  I  rated : 8.5/10   and looking forward for the sequel.  Despicable Me 3 is finally out but sadly, I was expecting to be more funny. This time is about Gru who met his brother Dru, who wanted to be a great villian like Gru and their father. Together they become an ally to defeat Balthazar Bratt, who was once a famous child...

Chapter 48 : Movie Reviews : Max 2, Kaabil, Before We Go

Horay! Max 2 is here and I don't think this movie would even going to be released in Indonesia. Personally, I prefer Max 2 as it's more enjoyable. A story about Max, who become a white house hero not just he saved life, but he saved  TJ's miserable into cheerful life. It is really entertaining, a light-hearted movie, suitable for  family and children. The story about Max , US president's son, TJ, and Russian president's daughter, Alexandra. When TJ & Alex sneaked out to attend a party, there  is a white van who tried to kidnap both of them . One of the kidnappers almost got TJ, but Max came to a rescue. TJ & Alex believe there's  someone who tried to ruin the peace agreement between two nations and together  with Max, they try to solve the mystery. I would rate 8/10 for its simplicity and the fun; moreover I love dogs, so I'm totally  biased  and this is truly a children's movie! so adult, if you are not into kids movie, don't complai...

Chapter 49 : Random Thought : Power & Greed

Why most of those who have fame, success and wealth ended up living with so many wrongs doing? Why does money  change us into new person? Why can't the wealthy and famous person become an inspiration, a good influencer to the world, instead of destructing their personal life and becoming more greedy? Have they forgotten the troubles, the scarifies  the sadness, those painful moments, endless tears, big disappointments they went through to achieve the empire they're building now? How can a person forget those hurdles when they are living on the top life? Why being famous and successful make them show their darker sides even more rather than showing their best sides of them! They shall utilize  their fame and wealth by contributing themselves into making world a slightly better place. Yeah, I do feel jealous, admittedly I'm. GOD have given them those big opportunities and repaid their struggles into living in such a marvelous life. While, to...
