7/10
Not bad for an action film with a rather novel storyline.
11 January 2010
The tournament is where the world top assassins gathered and compete for the ultimate number one title and cash prize. They will hunt and kill each other using whatever means till there are only one left. There are a few main characters in the movies each with their own agenda. The lead lady assassin (played by Kelly Hu) took part in the tournament and unexpectedly she have to "protect" a priest with a drinking problem when he accidentally "participate" in the tournament. Then after, killers were on their tail including the previous winner (played by Ving) seeking revenge for the one killer responsible for the murder of his wife. The story develops from there..

I find the storyline interesting and quite a novelty. The action scenes are pretty cool too. And Kelly Hu really rocks the show with her slick moves. What a babe to watch and i think she's hot! I certainly enjoy most of the fighting scenes and violent gunfights. Check it out!

Planet 51 (2009)
7/10
I kind of like it! A good and entertaining show.
8 January 2010
Planet 51 is about alien invasion, but it is alien invasion of another kind; by us so-called homo sapiens into the green creature planet. The adventure begins with Captain Charles landing on a supposedly new planet, but quickly find himself being surrounded by greeny humanoid creatures. The original inhibitants panicked and thought an alien invasion was in place and all effort was directed to capture Captain Charles and his sidekick, a cute rover robot. Lucky, Captain Charles still managed to gather all the help from new friends and allies and so the adventure begins for Captain Charles to escape from the Planet 51.

In my own opinion, i find Planet 51 to be a quite a good and entertaining animation show, packed with wacky and corny jokes and punchlines. Get ready for an enjoyable joyride!

Outlander (2008)
8/10
Spectacular adventure show!
7 January 2010
Outlander is the story of a modern soldier whose space shuttle accidentally crashed into a planet and carrying along an alien beast that are aggressive towards all living creatures. On this planet is still the Vikings era and the soldier aka Outlander chanced upon a Viking village. The beast terrorize the village and the Outlander was being mistaken at first for an opposite enemy, but later joined forces with the Vikings to battle this ferocious aggressor.

It is an enjoyable and engaging movie and the storyline move along nicely. There are ample fighting scenes in the movies that i think are played out quite well. The special effects are quite good too. I rate this show a 8 out of 10. Its an adventure and real entertaining to watch. Don't miss it!

What this show all about? Boring and waste of time to watch!
7 January 2010
In am utterly confused watching this show. From the beginning, it was okay, seems a bit interesting but as the story moves on, it doesn't make any more sense and bored me. The show centred on a girl Jessica and she moved into an apartment and apparently strange things happened, people died and she was scared. She panicked but no one believe her as the bodies disappeared mysteriously so she got no evidence... blah.. blah.. blah.. The gore is minimal and there is no horror or suspenseful element to this show at all. Even to the end it was still confusing and i don't know what this show all about. Deja Vu? Overall, poor storyline and poorly directed. Bottomed with below average acting. I would advise all simply don't waste your time watching this show. I have to rate it 2.

Rise of the Gargoyles (2008 TV Movie)
7/10
Rather enjoyable and entertaining to watch for a good weekend show.
5 January 2010
Warning: Spoilers
It quite an entertaining show and the story move on nicely and neatly. Basically, its about an ancient site under a church being accidentally uncovered and release those gargoyles that threatened to breed and to overrun the world. Violent murders took place and somehow a professor become a suspect. Finally, it is up to this professor that teamed up with a reporter and her crew and a priest to stop them. Sure, the special effects (on the gargoyles and the weird flickering eggs) might be a bit of let-down but other than that, i felt the overall package more or less deliver. There are quite a number of different scenes in the show too and ensures that it wont be so monotonous or get boring. Finally there was also your usual hero saving the day stuff and i like the somehow "boring" and "predictable" ending. I would rate it 7 out of 10. Cheers~

Triangle (2009)
8/10
A suspenseful and engaging show! One of my favorite!
5 January 2010
I am rather impressed by this film. In the beginning it was rather slow paced but once the suspense and action kicked in, it was very engaging to watch. I felt Melissa gave a superb performance in her acting and it was beautiful to watch her. It is rather interesting to see the plot development which is just like putting a jigsaw puzzle piece by piece together. As the events unfolded, you can see all the puzzles eventually make sense and linked up together. Really intelligently done. There are some shock and unexpected scenes too which is quite a novelty to the usual elements you will find in those horror films. Really recommended it and i would rate it a 8 out of 10. This show will be one of my favorite!

KillerKiller (2007)
2/10
Poor horror show! Expect much disappointment watching it...
5 January 2010
Its a low-budget and poorly directed show. I felt my time is wasted by watching it. I can accept low-budget horror film but this is quite below my expectations somehow. It have a nice twist for slasher movies prototype and it could have been so much better. The gore part is also rather unrealistic and rather minimum. I just felt the story line could have more engaging points and elements. The show is rather slow paced at times with a lot of unnecessary dialogues. The plot is also rather unclear and the ending left me confused with questions unanswered. I would rate it at 2 out of 10 and would not recommend to anyone wanting to have a good thrill watching horror movies unless there is really nothing to do.

Excellent action-packed show!
4 January 2010
Warning: Spoilers
It was an action-packed show from the start to the end. There was the usual terrorist plot in the movie that threatened the country peace, throw in a mad scientist with his own agenda and there was the twist in the end for you. I find the battle sequence between 2 good old foes (JCVD and Dolph) spectacular and intense in the movie. It was an adrenaline rush throughout. Only disappointment i find in the movie is that i would like to see some sort of a face-off between Dolph and Andrei the "Pitbull" too but that didn't happened and it was Van Damme that fight off each nemesis one by one. Definitely a show that wont disappoint any action fans out there and is a good addition to the Universal Solider series. I would rate it 10 of 10 just for the action!

Its the worst show i have ever seen in my life! Completely disappointed!
31 May 2009
This show is by far the worst i have even seen. There is completely no horror or suspenseful element. It is poorly made. There is no interaction or much plot in this movie. The sound effects are horrible and poor. Sometimes, the storyline make no sense at all. Worst of the worst, the ending is the lousiest i have ever seen in any movie. I would rather watch snails crawling or count the number of grass in the backyard than to watch this show! Waste of my precious time. It is so lazy, so slow, so unexciting, draggy and if there is a zero star rating, this movie got my vote for that! Completely and utterly disappointed by this movie.

Breathing Room (I) (2008)
1/10
There is no room for this type of movie.
2 December 2008
It a terrible show. In the end i don't know what the show its all about. I know a dozen low budget film that can produce something better than this. I rather watch reruns of Barney & friends or teletubbies than be wasting my time figuring out this movie. The setting is poor and so was the acting. The collars on the actors necks look terribly cheapskate rather than some security locking devices which they are meant to be. There was this usual plot which i found it awfully similar to some movie and that's all. The rest is plain old boring stuff and very predictable. You can even guess who is the killer in the end. Even if you pay me money to watch this film again, i will rather not as its insulting to intelligence.

Dark Reprieve (2008)
1/10
Poor storyline & poor direction.
25 October 2008
I guess this movie is make with a tight budget. The beginning was confusing and i hate the way they keep giving flashbacks or sudden scenes changes which is disturbing. There is not much element or storyline either to the movie. I could not understand the link of each scenes till the ending. They are like completely different. The monster in the movies look dumb instead of really frightening. I almost fell asleep watching the movie. The actors performance are average and at times not convincing. The only thing i like is the ending part. It has quite a twist to it. Other than that, as a viewer, i felt its absolutely disappointing to watch.

Suicide Club (2001)
1/10
So much for suicides... whats the plot about anyway???
18 June 2008
Personally, i do not really enjoy watching this show. It was with much anticipation at first, going by the title... However, i was let down by it poor CG graphics and confusing storyline. I felt that some elements of the movie are not integrated properly to relate to each other. Much coherent in a sense. What's with the kiddo pop group in the movie anyway? What was the show about anyway? Suicides being brought about by supernatural causes? People being coerced in suicides by a "mind controller" whoever, whatever? Perhaps one thing i like, is the type of gore present in the movie. Yes, its disturbing and creepy and i supposed will be too much for the faint-hearted to handle. Quite original in a sense. For the ending, it left so much to be debate... Ultimately, it tells of a simple moral behind the whole incidents. I reckon i'll just have to leave it to you guys to perceive.
