[Movie Review] Prometheus 2012

by Daniel Chiam

6/10 Fans will love the ending :D

I know of lot of Alien and Ridley Scott's fans are looking forward for Prometheus. The good news is, the movie is all what you can asked for in a sci-fi movie. Questions upon questions of why this and that, overall mind boggling - especially when Prometheus is about discovering the origin of mankind.

The down side of the whole movie for me, would be the lack of characters builds, which leave a lot of questions of why certain characters do what they do. In the end a lot of mystery left unresolved but in many ways, I really think that's the selling point for Prometheus. One thing for sure, fans will love what's install for them at the end.

Overall, the movie is a love and hate relationship for me. The aliens existed in the movie is kinda cool and gross at the same time tho xD 

Prometheus is a visual triumph and if nothing else it deserves credit for the moments when it does evoke the early scenes in Alien with the same degree of sinister wonder.

[Movie Review] X-Men: First Class (2011)

X-ceptional! 8/10

If you are not a fan of X-Men yet, and you have been listening or have being seeing fragments of every little bit of movies that's related to X-Men, then I strongly believe that after watching this prequel of the first X-Men movie, you will run to the sign up booth and registered yourself as a fan of the X-Men series.

This is by far one of the best prequel that has ever been made for movie series. It's really core to the core and origin of the origin of the story. This is the movie that made you go "Oh... that's how it happened!" (provided if you have never watch this part of the story in comic or the cartoon on tv before).

The story line is just brilliant and exceptionally well arrange. There was not a dull moment for you to sigh but even more frames per second for you to be amazed and to be in awe. This is truly the best X-Men series yet so far.

All in all, the actions is there, characters build is there, story line - fantastic, and its an overall close to perfect score for a movie of its own kind. It will worth every penny of your cents to watch it in the cinema. On a last note, you'll get to know why Mystique feels blue all the time, haha (lame joke).

Until next time, see you around my friend =)
