Street Fighter: The Legend of Chun-Li

Another action movie based on one of the famoust video games of CAPCOM - Street Fighter but this time only focus the character of Chun-Li, the chinese lady fighter.
The movie talks about Chun-Li (starred by Kristin Kreuk) fight against with Bison (starred by Neil McDonough), Balrog and Vega to save his father who is captured by Bison. With help from Gen (starred by Robin Shou), Nash (starred by Kris Klein) and Maya (starred by Moon BloodGood), can Chun-Li saves his father?

Personal Review:
Feel funny when I see Kristin play a role as Chun-Li in the movie. Chun-Li is a pure chinese female fighther, isn't she? There is scene whereby Chun-Li VS Vegas. When Vega appears in the movie at the first time seem very strong but when fight with Chun-Li, there is no chance for him to fight until defeated to Chun-Li. Haha......Overall the fighting scene can considered average. Besides, don't expect you will see other street figther characters will appear in the movie such as Ryu, E-Honda,...

Personal Review:

Don't expect the movie comes with a lot of action like other superheroes movies do. Anyway, this movie is worth to watch in the cinema since the movie very nice in vision as well as the music. This about 2 hours and 45 minutes length of movie will bring you unexpected ending. Besides, I also like the sexy Silk Spectre II, hehe......

Flight of the Living Dead - Outbreak On A Plane

Fight of the living dead is a special effects packed Sci-Fi / Horror / Action thriller about a routine flight from LA to Paris on which a renegade scientist, on the run from the CIA, has smuggled a secret coffin containing the body of a scientist infected with a deadly genetically engineered virus.

The 747 jumbo jet collides with two massive thunderstorms at one which drops it into the eye of an inescapable storm. The non-stop turbulence triggers the release of the infected “flesh eating” scientist from the cargo hold. A life and death battle ensues as the virus turns the unsuspecting passengers into “the undead” and the terrified uninfected passengers try to survive the flight they wish they missed. Now, no government will allow the “infected” 747 jumbo jet to land. Stranded in the air, the passengers have no place to hide from their ravenous tormentors…flying the deadly skies…


If you like to watch Zombie / Living Dead type of movie, then this movie cast by, David Chisum, Kristen Kerr, Richard Tyson and Siena Goinesv is your choice. To me, this is just a normal movie with action - the battle between human and zombie. But, do you dare to take flight together with scientist after watched this movie?

Wall-E

Wall-E is one the good movies I watched recently, even it just an animation movie. The storyline is about Wall-E (a robot designed to clean all the rubbish in the world) and Eve (a fighting robot) to bring back the human back to their mother earth.

The movie talks about love (between 2 robots?) and also advise us to save our environment. We should recycle the rubbish to avoid same like what happen in this movie, no more flora and fauna, until human staying in spaceship in galaxy.

Let's recycle and protect our mother earth.

3D-Journey to the Center of the Earth


Journey to the Center of the Earth is first live-action feature film to be shot and released entirely in digital 3D. The cast is lead by Brendan Fraser (as Prof. Trevor Anderson), Josh Hutcherson (as Sean Anderson) and Anita Briem (as Hannah Ásgeirsson).

The Story
No one believes that Trevor Anderson is on to something. The science professor’s unconventional hypotheses have put him on the fringe of the academic community. But during an expedition in Iceland, Trevor and his teenage nephew, Seam, accompanied by their beautiful local guide, Hannah, make a breakthrough discovery that launches them on a thrilling adventure into the unknown. As their journey takes them deep beneath the Earth’s surface, they travel thorough never-before-seen-worlds that bring them face-to-face with surreal and unimaginable creatures, stretching the bounds of the visionary scientist’s own imagination.

Personal Comment
From the movie, you can see how advance the current technology of animation is. The scenes appear in the movie are very nice. The selling point of this movie is the 3D technology. Without 3D effect, I don't see anything can attract the audience.

The Incredible Hulk


The latest The Incredible Hulk movie is far far better that the part one of The Incredible Hulk which directed by Hong Kong famous director Lee Ann. After I watched the part one, really fainted! Suppose a superhero movie with a lot of action scene but was directed become a movie for movie award - boring!

The new director - Louis Leterrier brings in Edward Norton as Bruce Banner / Hulk and pretty Liv Tyle as Bruce's belove Betty Ross. The movie comes with a lot of nice fighting scene (a superhero movie must be like this) especially the fight between the two giant: The green and the brown?

Tony Stark (Iron Man) also appears at the end of the movie and proposes to partner with the General (Betty's father who keep chasing Hulk for ultimate weapon for the country). What Tony want to do? Will he partners with General to fight with Hulk in part 3??

Superhero Movie

Another stupid funny movie directed by Craig Mazin who directed Scary Movie and Naked Gun. The movie is modified based on the story of Spiderman movie. But this time is not a smart spiderman, is a stupid dump dump green "Drogan Fly" (starred by Drake Bell) as a superhero that falls in love with Jill (starred by Sara Paxton).


Besides Dragon Fly, Mr.Fantastic, Wolverine, Storm, Professor Xavier, Invisible Woman also appeared in the movie. It also make fun of Tom Cruise, Prof. Hawkin, Nelson Mandela, Dalai Lama, etc.

After watched this movie, do you still like the Pretty version (original) of Invisible Woman (starred by Jessica Alba) or Big Boob version of Invisible Woman (starred by Pamela Anderson)? Haha...

If you wanna to have a big laugh, may be this movie suitable for you. Just for you to relax because watching this movie will not make to thi nk!

Iron Man

Finally, Iron Man movie released in the cinema yesterday. Since today is a public holiday, so I decided went to GSC Signature at The Gardens to watch Iron Man.

Iron Man is one of Marvel's Superheroes. Tony Stark (the main character) become Superhero (as Iron Man) because of his intelligence in technology especially in weapon, not superpower like Spiderman and Incredible Hulk.

The story started with Tony Stark (starred by Robert Downey Jr.) kidnapped by Ten Ring (a rebellion) in Afghanistan when he is demonstrating his new weapon there.He forced by Ten Ring to build weapon for them but he builds superhero suit instead of the weapon to escape from the jail and 1st version of Iron Man born (prototype) . After back to US, he decided to build the new version of Iron Man (the one with Red & Gold color) to protect the world.

Later, his personal assistant, Pepper (starred by Gwyneth Paltrow) found that the kidnap is planned by Obadiah, top executive in Stark Industries but unfortunately Obadiah knows it. Obadiah equips himself superhero suite (he developed it based on the prototype of Iron Man found in Afghanistan) to kill Pepper but luckily Iron Man can come on time to save Pepper. War between 2 version of Iron Man begins!!

Actually Iron Man is one my favorite Marvel hero. I like his outlook ;)

Overall this movie quite nice but please don't expect much. Not many fighting scenes as Spiderman does because Iron Man only use power weapon, no need to fight, just shoot...

Should go to watch it if you are planning to watch a movie this weekend.

Resident Evil: Extinction

Resident Evil: Extinction is the third installment in the series of film adaptations based on the Capcom survival horror series Resident Evil starred by Milla Jovovich (as Alice), Oded Fehr (as Carlos Olivera), Ali Larter (as Clair Redfield), Iain Glen (as Dr. Isaacs), Ashanti (as Betty) and Spencer Locke (as K-Mart).

Actually, this movie is considered as lady hero type of movie. Of course Milla is the only hero in the movie with special power, until can disturb the operation of satellite. Wow...amazing, I believe it already out of the storyline of Resident Evil video game!

I am one the game follower of Resident Evil or Biohazard but have such power in the game - only can use weapon to kill zombie or just run...............when no armor.

If you like action movie, this is one of the movie can see but can't expect much.
