Captain Phillips (2013)
Worth watching .... once
I am ITCHING to write about how good the acting is in Captain Phillips(particularly tom hanks) . But most of the reviews here have already mentioned about this. In this review, i will take a look at areas where it COULD HAVE been better.
The movie was very thrilling up to the part where they entered the safe boat. After that, it became a little less absorbing and quite predictable. OK, so there isn't very much they can do to improve the story. But here is my problem. I never really felt threatened by the pirates. Their acting was great but for me they didn't do enough to make me fear for the lives of the crew members. My instincts were right as none of the crew members got injured which was a bit disappointing. Personally, it would've been a good idea to make the pirates a bit more fearsome by hurting some of the crew members.
Overall, this is a good movie, a 7.5/10 in my opinion. Is it a movie worth watching again? Perhaps not. Will i recommend watching the movie for the first time? Absolutely!
Justin Bieber's Believe (2013)
Kids, wake up!
It still amazes me how successful this broad has become. Let's face it, his talent is very limited. His voice is very common and all his songs suck. He has no charisma and he knows it. So what does he do? He tries to cover up by putting up a pretty boy front which has fooled the prepubescent community. His popularity is gradually diminishing as his prepubescent fans grow up and realize how silly they were. I wonder, when Bieber's time under the spotlight is up, would his name echo in eternity and make the history books? Will people be talking about him in the same breath as Michael Jackson or Elvis Presley? Absolutely not. He did not revolutionize singing or dancing in any way. Bieber is a waste of time, we should brush him aside and pave the way for more talented artists so we can be spoiled by the MJs and Elvises again. Kids, please don't waste your parents money on his concert tickets, albums or any Bieber merchandise. Don't you think it's ridiculous that talentless broads like Bieber can enjoy the same fame and success as those legends that I mentioned earlier? Please stop being the catalyst behind the death of good music.
