Devil (2010)

indexI don't usually watch horror/thriller movies in the cinemas because I feel stupid to pay and get yourself scared.

This story is written M.Night Shymalan, the very same person who did Sixth Sense, The Village and the Last Airbender..

Brief Synopsis

5 different person got trapped inside the elevator with a devil among them.

Review

Look at the plot.. we have 5 people trapped in a small elevator with a devil among them. How is such a plot going to expand other than mindless killing, which is surely to expose the killer who eventually kills the suspense and ends as one of the stupidest movies ever made..

However, HEY.. I WAS WRONG…

I was really taken aback by how good the movie turns out to be. In fact, I think it’s one of the best thrillers of the year. Last year was Saw VI :)

To be honest, I’m extremely annoyed by the poor acting. It really got me irritated up until the middle of the film, But as soon as the plot began to develop, I am too dwelt into the movie to care about their acting.

I’m not if they censored any of the gruesome scenes, but I don’t find it too violent after all. Lucky thing they did not include any of those super senseless killings like we used to see in American horror films that could ultimately destroy the whole purpose of making a movie.

Maybe because I’m watching it on the big screen, I find this movie suspenseful enough to keep me occupied the whole course of the movie. Nevertheless, of course, you shouldn’t be expecting quality of horror like ‘6th Sense’ because that was classic. The final part was a surprise. I mean that’s the only part which is worth gave me a fright. Man, these directors is really good at making ‘ending’ these days.

Lastly, if you’re looking for a good horror film which decent sense, plot and a message to deliver then this is a film for you. Even so, if you just want to get yourself frightened then go for some crappy korean/japanese horror. They are always capable of scaring you from their senseless storyline.

They should be making more movies like this.

My rating 7.5/10

Resident Evil: Afterlife (3D)

Resident-Evil-4-Afterlife-PosterBeen a long time since I edited this blog.. Got caught up with life,, 

Well let's start with this popular Game-Movie franchise ‘Resident Evil’ where many people have been anticipating the whole yearlong.

Brief Synopsis

In a world ravaged by a virus infection, turning its victims into the Undead, Alice (Jovovich), continues on her journey to find survivors and lead them to safety. Her deadly battle with the Umbrella Corporation reaches new heights, but Alice gets some unexpected help from an old friend. A new lead that promises a safe haven from the Undead takes them to Los Angeles, but when they arrive at the city is overran by thousands of Undead - and Alice and her comrades are about to step into a deadly trap.

Review

This movie has a pretty ‘cool’ action scenes during the beginning. I thought the whole movie was going to end there, but it was twisted and the story began to develop.

Well, one thing that I liked about this movie is that they have good story/film development in the middle, and did not rush things like any other game-movie genre. Furthermore, I took a liking on how the producers are killing people off without any warning, which could serve  good suspense to the audiences An. bonus  is that they included the monsters from RE5 into the film.. which has a mixed response  from the viewer.

However, I find myself wasted the extra bucks for watching 3D because I can only find significant scenes where I can really feel the 3D effects, and the rest is not much a different from a 2D screen.

Finally, I would not suggest people to go for the 3D because it's a totally waste of time and strength,  but overall its still a watchable movie, i mean watchable as in normal quality. But would still serve as a good entertainment to the audience.
