Movie Review: Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows (Part 2)

I wish I went to the midnight screening on Tuesday, but oh well. Time constraints ruin everything. In other news, at least I finally saw it!!!

So, I saw this in 3D. Will be seeing it again in 2D. The 3D was a little pointless, but oh well. Everything was still really stunning.

( spoilers )

ALSO, there were some people in the audience laughing/giggling at the really intense/serious moments. I wanted to applaud when someone told them to STFU. GRR.

Movie Review: X-Men: First Class

Guys. I mean, guys. Holy shit, Tumblr wasn't kidding. There is a lot of EMOTIONAL MAN-FEELINGS in this movie. asdfghjkl;

Erik/Charles. DUDE, MY FRIEND COULD (sort of) SEE IT. She was all, "They shouldn't fight. They should stay together and save the world and keep teaching the kids," and then she proceeded to make aeroplane noises. Don't diss her. She's pretty awesome. Aeroplane noises. Anyway, she probably didn't slash it, but she did say their bromance was pretty fucking intense. So points there.

Ah, IDK. Maybe my rose-coloured slash goggles fixed some of the scenes for me.

Though, come on. That scene with the touching. Oh, I'm sorry, I need to pluralise that. All those scenes with the touching. ALL OF THEM. And the eye contact. And how Erik so easily shared his mind with Charles. AWWW. ♥ forever. Am I sounding a little fangirly? I'm sorry, I'm in such a good mood. Ice-cream + finished all my exams = major buzz high right now.

( spoilers and fangirling is mostly hidden by the cut - BEWARE OF RANDOM CAPITALISATION! )

Anyway, all I have to say now is some RL stuff, which I'll put in another post. Cheers!

(also, I was wondering does anyone know where I could find the movie online? I want to rewatch it ahaha)

Movie Review: Pirates of the Caribbean 4

Suuucked.

Suuuuuucked so baaaad.

It was nicely done, aesthetically speaking, but the plot. Or should I say, the LACK of plot.

UGGGH. WHAT DID I WASTE TWO HOURS WATCHING? *Headdesk.* Seriously. That was mindless. I disliked the lack of direction/plot/description/etc.

Jack is a great minor character, but God, as a major character he feels like a Gary Stu. IDK.

WTF WAS UP WITH THE MERMAID AND THAT DUDE? asdfghjkl; There were so many pointless, poorly written sub-plots. Ridiculous.

*Headdesks some more.* Why do they keep dragging this franchise out? (Because stupid idiots like me go see it...) BLARGHY. Sad thing is, if there's another movie, I'll see it. D:

At least I caught up with an old friend and had a good time. :)

Movie Review: Gulliver's Travels

Final Rating: 3 out of 10.

Quick Summary: Based off the book of the same name by Jonathan Swift, Gulliver's Travels, is meant to be a thrilling adventure of discovering far off worlds--except an adaption from the perspective of a modern man.

Final Rating: 7.5 out of 10.

Quick Summary: Shit, son. If you don't know who/what Harry Potter is, GTFO. =_=

Movie Review: Inception

Final Rating: 10 out of 10.

Quick Summary: The most epic mindfuck of the century.

asdfghjkl;

I can't believe it took me this long to see it. New favourite movie. I loved the plot, actors, music, characterizations, the effects--just everything. It's been a long time since I've been so hyped by a movie (refreshing to see one not "based off a book/comic"). I'm not in a proper mindset to review it properly - I am in hardcore fangirl mode over this movie. XD

GO. WATCH. NOW. or we can't be friends. (kidding)

Movie Review: The Last Airbender

Final Rating: 4.5 out of 10.

Quick Summary: Movie adaptation of the popular cartoon, Avatar: The Last Airbender. When the world is set out of balance with fire overpowering the other elements, it's up to the young Avatar, master of all forces, to reset the way of things.

( All-in-all, this movie was pretty to look at, but everything else sucked. A lot. Watch the cartoon, not the movie. )

Movie Review: Easy A

Final Rating: 8.5 out of 10.

Quick Summary: Typical high-school girl, Olive Penderghast, watches her life--and reputation--run out of control as one stray little lie snowballs into a rumour that changes the way the world view her.

( I don't know about it getting an Oscar, but it's definitely worth the ticket price and the overpriced candy from the store. )

Movie Review: Despicable Me (3D)

Final Rating: 6.5 out of 10.

Quick Summary: Despicable Me is a movie revolving around an evil genius who is somehow cornered into looking after three orphan children in his quest for being the world's greatest villian by attempting to steal the moon. This is also a story about how the children slowly become more important than world domination.

( All in all, it was a brilliant kids' movie. Just don't expect a mind-blowing experience. )
