Review - The Amazing Spider-Man
What can I say? It's rather amazing. Although I was initially hesitant about a reboot coz Sam Raimi's Spiderman movies are still kinda new and a couple of them are quite good.
And of course when I found out Andrew Garfield is Spiderman... I was all freaking out and stuff... Not too sure if he could fill the superhero requirement... but I was wrong.. boy, was I wrong... Garfield proved to be an adept Spidey, better than Tobey Maguire.... he had the right amount of hotness, I mean, geekiness and that smoldering thingy that he has that makes him a good Peter Parker... whereas Maguire was geeky but he was also kinda nerdy and a bit too squeaky clean...
Emma Stone... now this girl, I like... Zombieland? The Help? She rocks and she was good in this movie as well... although her role is kinda minor, but then again, all the damsels in distress never do get big roles...
The story goes like this... and yes, it's the same story like the previous movies, coz, hello? It's from the comics and kinda set in stone... Parker got bitten, Uncle Ben dies, Spiderman rages, meets villain, fight to the death... oh, and kisses the girl... but this time, there's a bit of a difference when it comes to the romance...
And the fighting... very cool... very unique... nice... all in all, not a bad start to a reboot trilogy... wait, did they say this was gonna be another trilogy?

Review - The Avengers
The Avengers. A movie that all fanboys have been waiting for. Me especially, since Joss Whedon is directing and/or scripting... if you don't already know this fact, I am a huge Whedon groupie... and have followed all of his work. Buffy the Vampire Slayer is my favorite show of all time.
So I guess my expectations were kinda high for this movie, especially since I watched Cabin in the Woods and that, too was awesome!
So there hasn't been any movie before this that combines superheroes from different movies into one action packed movie. And no, the X-Men movies don't count coz none of them had their own movies.
What I really love about this movie is that everybody had an important part to play, and not just focused on a couple of characters. I admit some are given better lines than others, some got juicier fight scenes than others, but you don't really get a sense of who's the star in this ensemble.
And a lot of the comic book/gaming geek stuff is in the movie, which made me squeal in delight. Yes I squealed. Deal with it.
Since Joss had a hand in the script as well, the lines were fast and snappy and witty and funny. Unfortunately for me, most of my fellow countrymen cared not about the lines. All they want and/or need are violence and the big bad boom. So a lot of them preferred Battleship over The Avengers. Oh well, their loss. I like the intelligence of the movie and that it is informative enough for anyone who is not familiar with the Marvel world.
A couple of gripes though... Hawkeye calling Black Widow 'Nat'... if her name is Natalie then Nat would have worked, but her name is Natasha... Nah-Tah-Sya... and the Hulk got self control during the alien battle but he did not have it on the helicarrier... nothing major though... hehe... cannot wait for Part 2...

Review - Cabin in the Woods
.jpg)
Joss Whedon is a name most people are not familiar with... unless they have seen his work... like one of the greatest TV shows on Earth, Buffy the Vampire Slayer... or Angel, or Firefly, or Dollhouse...
But Whedon's name is going to explode in a big way this summer, starting with his horror movie homage, The Cabin in the Woods... and then The Avengers...
Cabin tells the story of five college kids, taking a break from it all and heading for, wait for it... a cabin in the woods, for a spot of R&R... little did they know, they have been chosen for a higher purpose in life...
Some people might be turned off by the two parallel stories... one - the kids in the woods... second - a bunch of coats in some kind of laboratory... hmm, I should not continue, dun wanna spoil it...
Some of the Buffyverse actors made an appearance in the movie... Me, being a big fanboy, was squealing in delight when I saw Fred and Andrew... and of course, the entire movie was like a page out of Buffy or Angel...
Like I said earlier, it's an homage to horror movies... but it is still a horror movie... and a creature feature... actually Cabin has everything in it... horror, drama, comedy, action, thrills...
Not being biased here, but this movie is awesome! Wiping drool now...

Review - Mirror Mirror
Hollywood (or the studios) has a tendency to try and outdo each other. Remember when Dante's Peak was released? Out came Volcano. Remember when Deep Impact was released? Out came Armageddon. And so on and so forth.
This time, we fall victim (or lucky SOBs, depending on your POV) to the race for box office supremacy with Snow White. The first one out is called Mirror Mirror, starring Lily Collins as Snow White and Julia Roberts as the Evil Queen. And Armie Hammer as the Prince. Also in the movie are Nathan Lane, Mare Winningham and Sean Bean.
I don't think I need to rehash the story as we are all familiar with it but they did change some stuff up here and there but mostly the same.
I was kinda questioning Julia Roberts as the evil queen coz she doesn't look or project evil or intimidating at all. But this Queen is more sarcastically evil than evil evil, which works well coz Roberts is actually a master at cynical sarcasm, having spent her years working the romantic comedy route. Most of the funny also came from Roberts' quips.
Lily Collins, aside from having the famous dad, is relatively a newcomer but she held her own. As did Armie Hammer. But we did know he was a good actor ever since he was in The Social Network. But I wish they would have chosen a more sturdier and buff prince, but hey, beggars can't be choosers. :)
Overall, the movie was excellent. Has all the right parts combined. Comedy, dark humor, action, drama, romance... and even has a little fun ditty at the end that was a homage to the Hindi movies that was refreshing...
Looking forward to Snow White and the Huntsman... which apparently is more serious than Mirror Mirror...

Review - Underworld Awakening
Wow, it's almost the end of January and I only have one post? Daymmnnn... my work is completely kicking my ass... gotta work out a better system...Anyway, yesterday, I went and caught the new Underworld entry... Awakening... but first, gotta cop to this... I did not catch Rise of the Lycans, because it was a prequel and there was no Selene... and I kinda forgot the second one completely... Evolution... hardly remember it... doesn't bode well for that movie huh?
Anyway, Awakening starts with images of a culling... the killing of both werewolves and vampires... as the humans discover their existence by way of infections... anyway, so the government kick-ass team finally caught up with Selene and Michael and succeeded in capturing them... cut to 12 years later when Selene was freed from her containment cell, by her daughter... Selene finds the world has changed and she has to fight to keep her hybrid daughter safe from a lycan plot to take over the world...
Not sure if this Awakening has better action than the other movies but its pace is sure fast and furious... stopping only for a bit here and there for the sake of the audience with brains so that they can explain stuff and get things moving along before the action resumes...
Quite nice... even the red herring was not too obvious... only realize it when they were about to reveal em... unfortunately, we have to wait 3 more years for the next Underworld installment... huhu...
