A Non-Stop Suspense



I might be a little late to write a review about Non-Stop. I never interested in watching Liam Neeson’s movies before; turns out I’m so deadly wrong about this one. If it’s Liam Neeson then you know that you’re gonna have a big amount of action stuff in the screen. Well I never liked his kinda action movie with a lot of crash cars and planes, but Non-Stop brought me to a whole new level of suspense.




Joume Collet-Serra really cares about his viewers. I mean, he built a super fun suspense about an airplane hijacking. You know, there are a lot of movies quite like this one, but this one’s different. You don’t know who hijack the plane, you don’t know who terorize the protagonist, and you’re gonna suspect everyone because it could’ve been anyone. And Liam Neeson played the protagonist beautifully, he’s the one who moved the plot and made everything interesting. He played a hero without any of those stereotype heroic moves. It was naturally portrayed by him and you’re gonna rooting for him big time! Also when you watch this movie, you won’t get bored. There are some action-mystery movies that you wish that it’d end quickly because you tired of the suspense they gave and you just want to know who the bad guy is, but Non-Stop is different. You’re gonna enjoy your one and a half hour so much. You will enjoy the suspense and carried by the story Joume Collet-Sera made.




But, you know, nobody’s perfect. This movie’s weakness was the lack of back story of the antagonist and the reason behind this hijacking. You’d wish it was because of something very big and have a lot of impact in anybody. No, don’t expect that kinda back story because you won’t get it. Well, just enjoy the suspense and Liam Neeson’s acting. After all, I love this movie, entertain me so much, though.  I’ll give this movie 4 out of 5.

Not So Entertaining Combination of Robot and Cop



So I went to watch The 2014 RoboCop yesterday and it was different than I expected. I mean Joel Kinnaman was hot as hell (no doubt) but I kinda expect I’d be watching a lot of action and awesome visual effect in Robocop, because I thought this was suppose to be an entertaining movie, like Marvel heroes. Well, it’s not. This movie filled with a lot of drama. I didn’t really get a lot of action moves in this movie. I thought when someone combined Robot and a cop, I would at least get a non-stop action stuffs and heroic story like superhero movies but I was wrong. I also slept like twice when I was watching this because it was super boring. The long introduction wasn’t necessary. I didn’t even get the point, I mean Jose Padhila brought me everywhere and he seemed like he was missing the point in the middle of the movie, eventhought he brought me back to the main problem again in the end but it was very disturbing and I didn't enjoy it.




So, Robocop is not recommended for you who expect some action moves and heroic storyline. It doesn’t have any of that stuff. And my verdict? Ugh, I don’t know. 2 out of 5, maybe? I appreciate the hardwork on making those robot suit and the visual effects, though. Oh, and no, don't see it in imax. Not worth it!

The Legend of Hercules is an Epic Fail!



The Legend Of Hercules is a fail reboot movie. It's super dull and nothing could save this movie from its crappiness. Even if you were a big fan about this son of ancient God, you shouldn't waste one and a half hour watching this because you would just wish you were asleep during the screening. My rating for this movie is 0 out of 5. The creator (I don't even wanna bother myself to google about the director) shouldn't waste million dollar just to built those expensive ancient sets and hired those crappy actors. The actors are dull, I just wish they all died and the movie would end sooner. None of the actors even tried to impress the viewers. An example of a failed portrayal of any characters. Duh! This movie deserves razzie awards, seriously! (strong statements but true)


FYI, I wrote this draft when I was in the middle of watching it. It was so boring and I really wished I could just pluck my both eyeballs out.
