The Hobbit: The Battle of Five Armies (Review)

I'm really looking forward for this movie as it is the last movie from The Hobbit trilogy. If you don't know, I'm a huge fan of Martin Freeman and can't wait to see his acting again. So, without too many chit chat, let me tell you my opinion!

The Great
Martin Freeman as Bilbo and Richard Armitage as Thorin are the most precious things from this movie.They gave the most stirring performance in this film that worth your ticket money. All my favorite scenes from this movie are always about their beautiful friendship and interaction.

The Good
As expected, the battle scenes looks extravagant with lots of violence.
Lee Pace as Thranduil.
Ryan Gage as Alfrid creates many laughters.
All cast give good performance for their respective roles but they were given more stunt than lines so let's just say that they're underused.

The Bad
As you can see from my Desolation of Smaug review, I hate the added love story between Thauriel and Kili. It's so fake, unconvincing and empty, I cringe everytime I saw their scenes on the screen. 

My verdict: 
The Hobbit: The Battle of Five Armies is not magical, but it's still an entertaining movie. Some of the scenes might pissed off fan of the original book (for example, me ^^), but overall I still recommend you to watch it.

Big Hero 6 (Review)

Lately, Disney's animation never fall shorts of my expectation. After Wreck-it Ralph and Frozen, here comes Big Hero 6, a production of Disney with characters from Marvel. I never think that there's a movie that could challenge How to Train Your Dragon 2 as my favorite animation movie this year. This movie is so cute and I always have a soft spot for story about sibling love and friendship.

Big Hero 6 is a funny and heartwarming story about Hiro Hamada, a genius, and Baymax, an inflatable medical robot, which a little bit resemble relationship between Hiccup and Toothless. When a devastating event befalls the city of San Fransokyo and catapults Hiro into the midst of danger, he turns to Baymax and his close friends adrenaline junkie Go Go Tomago, neatnik Wasabi, chemistry whiz Honey Lemon and fanboy Fred. Determined to uncover the mystery, Hiro transforms his friends into a band of high-tech heroes called "Big Hero 6."

Overall, this movie is good. Don't expect complicated story because it's straight and simple, I could predict the ending ^^. I honestly think it will be more interesting if the big bad guy is none other than Hiro's brother. But well, if it's like that, this story will become dark, complicated, and maybe become a not child-friendly story. He he he. Don't worry, the relationship between Hiro and Baymax is so heartwarming, so I will say you got your money's worth for seeing this movie. I recommend it for anybody, especially animation lover. 

Rurouni Kenshin: The Legend Ends (Review)

Yeah. I know, I know. I'm a lazy piece of nothing. I shut down myself from write anything in the past 2 months. I'm sorry. I'm busy hiding in my shell to defend myself from harm inflicted to me from outside world. There's no one missing me out there, right? *I'm act like there's someone following my blog posts and miss my updates where in fact, no one does ^^ *start to play "Missing" from Evanescence. Ha ha ha. Anyway, I hate being lazy. It made me gain weight >.<.

I've watched Rurouni Kenshin: The Legend Ends about 2 months ago but only managed to post this today. without many chit chat, here are what I think about this movie!

Great
Of course the fighting scenes!!!

Good
Masaharu Fukuyama as Kenshin's teacher, Hiko Seijuro. 

Bad
I don't get carried away by the drama here.

Honestly, I'm a little bit disappointed. Maybe it's because my expectation is too high as you could read on my previous post about Kyoto Inferno. Many people said this movie is epic. Well, it's fighting scenes are indeed epic but the emotion is lacking. It's still a good movie though. It's a must for people who love Rurouni Kenshin and have watched the previous movies.
