Inception (2010)
8/10
Movie of the year
28 July 2010
Warning: Spoilers
This movie is definitely watch worthy. 2 hours of mind twisting science fantasy! I couldn't find the right word to describe the genre. I always like stories about dream exploration. This movie goes further beyond normal dreaming and takes you a whole new level of dreaming adventure. I was kind of disappointed it didn't have any fantastic superpower action that's only possible in dreams. Then again, I'm some what glad it didn't.

Leonardo's acting was superb and fits really well with this movie. Special effects was not too abundant that you can thoroughly enjoy the story without being distracted by cgi effects.

I can sense the movie audience completely immerse in this movie when I watched it. No one was talking or making stupid conversation during the movie. Everyone too busy at awe or concentrating on the amazing story.

Overall I give it an 8.5 (couldn't rate an 8.5 so I give it an 8 since its current standing is already 9.2). This movie definitely require second viewing for deeper understanding of the plot line, or just to catch subtle scene throughout the movie. Great movie!

Liar Game (2007–2010)
7/10
Its Okay, but don't deserve rating more than 7
12 June 2010
Its watchable I guess. I don't quite like the acting, it seemed forced and unnatural. The main character is supposed to be naive, trusting and easily deceived. Because of this, the dialogue sometimes repeat a lot because the main character is not quick witted to understand the deception. This sometimes get irritating and stretch a one minute scene to five minutes.

Its an okay series, but I don't think it deserve rating more than 7. For fan of its manga, probably worth a watch. I bought the DVD of this series because of the IMDb rating. My expectation was high, but it turns out just an okay watch.

10/10
Awesome!
1 March 2006
This movie totally blows my mind.

I've heard of it prior to seeing it but never really expected the movie to be an awesome experience. One of the greatest anime of all time.

Great use of colors. Great flow of storytelling. The landscape is really spellbinding.

Not surprising since it is produced by Ghibli Studio, directed and written by Hayao Miyazaki. This man is the mastermind behind great anime movie such as Totoro:the neighbour, Kiki delivery Service, Laputa the floating castle. That man is a genius with storytelling and spellbinding anime direction.

The movie starts of in cliché style of action movie. As it progress, you are brought along to experience the world of Lupin adventure.

Its really hard to find fault in a movie that delivers such great feeling. Euphoric!

Serenity (2005)
4/10
Lack of Character Development
1 November 2005
Not much character development. I guessed you'll praise it lavishly if you're a fan of the TV-series Firefly, but its just an average flick if you're not familiar with the TV series. There is hardly any chemistry among the characters that.. its hard to get any emotional attachment to the character at all.

The movie come off as being a bit confusing for me as I was expecting a relaxing and enjoyable bit of sci-fi movie. Actually, I did enjoy a few minutes of nap. Some parts are just plain boring that it puts you to sleep. Maybe I'm expecting too much out of this movie. I'm rating it 4/10 because I really didn't enjoy it as much.

Sorry for the fans out there.

From Hell (2001)
5/10
not as good as i expected
23 November 2001
I'm really disappointed with Johny Depp's acting. It was bad! Johny Depp's played out his character like he did on his previous movie(one about drug dealer).. somehow, it doesn't fit in. And i think the movie could do without the romantic scene. I thought this movie is about Jack the Ripper? Overall, i vote this movie 5.0/10.0
