Its not only for kids. There's something more in the story that could somehow affect us. You should know it by yourself.  Some grown ups had imagined before those things that Greg had in mind. Sense of confidence was just in mind, but still he's wimpy.  His brother, Rodrick, his pain in the ass, made him more mature. The characters make the whole story of the Diary of a Wimpy Kid more interesting. Maybe you could feel it better in the book which described each character in depth. The sitcom-ish act in the film is  a good style in implementing the plot. The way each scene rolls, it brings the house down. So, is it more in positive sides? If you don't care how few of them overreact, then all things get in bright side. At least, it relieves you from your dreadful day. On the glimpse of each characters based on the film, each of them had their own  nature which's close to real life. Greg Heffley a kid you would not see happy doing kid stuff. He's every underdog wit...

Sometimes you should not dwell to extravagant productions. In Hanna, there's no way to put it. The aesthetic pace of the plot is enough to make you move in to it's deepest insight. If there would be dull moment in several scenes, its not noticeable. Hanna Heller (Saoirse Ronan), a 16-year old who trained to be assassin by her father Erik Heller in a isolated forest in Finland, Erik trained Hanna to kill Marissa for revenge in her mother's death. After she departed to her father, captured by and escaped from ruthless agents with the help of Sophie, who became her friend, she finally went to meet her father in Grimm's house in Berlin. There, she unraveled the pieces of her. She found out that she's born in failed experiment designed to bring in an aggressive, strong with no pain and emotion soldier and eventually realized that Erik was not her biological father. Hanna was not really pierce as what the film described her. She had several scenes which showed her...

Green Lantern 2011 When you're looking for a  decent action hero, you resort to DC's and Marvel's. Green Lantern as we know it, is part of the Justice League. For those comic book fan, it's overwhelming to see Green Lantern in real life in big screen. It's hard to produce something that needs a matured graphics to feel it's "real existence". You can see it in this film. Along these lines, it's hard to be convinced. Yeah it failed. Anyhow, Green Lantern will never fail you to amuse with vivid imagination. It still makes you blown away Although the plot was narrowed, there were several effective ideas, which incorporated in the film. One of these ideas is the flash back. This made the film less dense to viewers who had no idea of the entire comic series. Even if it's already told, it's not entirely predictable. The mood is not totally hard. In fact there are few scenes that will make you smile and some will make you laugh but's not...

The premise's film is like a hot boiled water in a closed pot. It's waiting for someone to open it. You expect something that will explode yet it's not surprising. This is how I describe this film while following the storyline. There were scenes that you might think necessary to make the entire film worth to watch. Needless to say, those are the things you would see in other sci-fi, horror, action movie. " Underworld " was the first thing that came into my mind. It's not a waste though to find few cliches but it keep you from wanting more. I also find it strange to see monsters (or the vampires as the film referred to) similar to "Doom (2005)" . Nevertheless, people still tend to hold on human-to-monster battle, more particularly to vampires. In most positive way, there were few improvements in cinematography. It took my breath away. You would almost believe the existence of the landmarks appeared in the film but not the futuristic side. As ex...

Wow, Philippines is one the first countries where to release Green Lantern. Its one day ahead to US. I'm one the few persons who look forward to the film. There were already lot of teasers in 2010. I had seen few of them. What should we expect in this comic-book based-movie? Will there be deviation on the original storyline? Whether there will be changes or not, the bottom line here is, will it become too cheesy or be having some stupid cliches? But for now, I'm not sure of Ryan Reynold . It a bit of surprise that the supposed to be black is white. (You know what I mean?).On the other side, I will keep on eye to the blonde Gossip Girl Blake Lively . Her role as Carol Ferris is interesting. Beauty and brain, huh? No more comparison to the X-Men series or Batman or Superman or Justice League or Wonder Woman or Captain America or Darna (what the?). These movies have their own edge to jump us. That's all there is to it. This may be the first in trilogy. If it beats u...

" They have identified a receptor in the brain that trigger on a certain way. they say that we can access only 20% of our brain. This pill allows all of it. ". Imagine that. The premise is intriguing, huh? We normally interact the way we used to be. Maybe we could change something on ourselves. Attitude, that's it. However, I realized that there's always something left. That is the 80% of our brain! How is it true? Can a piece of pill make a difference? Well, its only a fiction. But a fiction may have few facts. Who experts could say that? Having a big brain is not enough? Is it necessarily mean that a genius use the 100%? Film is based on the 2001 novel "The Dark Fields" by Alan Glyn. I haven't yet read that one. Although it is purely fictional, I can't help but to think the few possibilities. Its a compliment when the film made the audience think of "the experience far beyond" having a piece of pill. It's only degrading when o...

Source Code was one of the anticipated movies I ever wanted to see. I've already seen its teaser last December. The trailer itself almost told the whole story. Nevertheless, the plot was interesting which I think one of the best sci-fi. The hero is none other than the Donnie Darko. I used to think that character whenever I see Jake Gyllenhaal . I was a bit surprised in his character here. He's soldier here, as Colter Stevens, not a Donnie Darko typo. There's Michelle Monaghan as Christina Warren. She is simply stunning. I could not find that in her role in Eagle Eye. Her character is enticing as in bewitching her hero (Stevens). I find it's awkward to see how she repeated some scenes whenever Steven came back in time. It's because she's the past. This made me think. How this plot will be going? Fortunately, its not all the same. Surprisingly, it came to be unpredictable. The movie is not so hyped. It is simply a sci-fi thriller with a few of romantic sc...
