"The Lovely Bones" 2009

I have to say this has to be one of the best movies I have seen. Drama is really not my type of Genre, but this one I like...lol..It has some suspense to it. The Graphic Fantasy visual effects was really great, but what really was awesome is the story and meaning behind it. I don't remember when was the last drama movie I saw that made me a little eyed teary, I guess Im checkin my other Blog movie review.
A short introduction of the movie:
About an ordinary girl on her way home from school and was murdered in December 1973.
Susie(The main Character) was trapped in this "In-Between" fantasy place where she's able to see and observe all the stuff that she left on earth. She watched her family, mom and dad, Grandma, her murder mystery, her crush, and her murderer after her death.
Though the ending was kinda like a dissapointment for me with the pay-off from the murderer in the end, I was hoping it could be something more justice like electric chair or something for all the little girls she killed, But I guess a gruesome death is good enough. Well, This has the vibe of a family drama, so I guess high-school puppy love scene would suit to free her completely so I just have to suck it up..hehe.. And Of course, You can never bring a loved one back whatever you do, and we all must have to move on. I don't think "revenge" was the ideal focus in the story. In real life there are a lot of cases and stories that are unsolved.
Check out the trailer. It actually came out last year directed by Peter Jackson and also was on the book by Alice Sebold.

Resident Evil

I Finally saw Resident Evil "Afterlife" last weekend. I very much liked it. Lovin the 3D as well. Well to be honest, Im a big fan of Resident Evil Games and other stuff so even if it comes out mediocre type movie I would still give it a lot of credit for making it to the big screen. Mila Jovovich is awesome like always. Im thinking maybe they should put Angelina Jolie next time as one of the characters from the game who hasn't appeared yet in the movie like "Ada Wong". ANyways, I saw a couple of familiar Villains and creatures like the big guy with the Big Axe, and the Zombies with stuff coming out of their mouth, and of course "Wesker" with that "Neo"Matrix look. Also "Chris Redfield" before I forgot as one of the good guys. Some of the Action secquence look Matrixish like with the bullets and slow mos, well I guess its not just all about matrix. Overall, I would give this movie an 8 out of 10. I guess I was expecting more actions and lots of extra stuff, but really im satisfied. Looking for the next one.. I can't wait.

"Case 39" 2009

I saw this movie Couple of weeks ago Actually and forgot to make a short review.
This movie came out last year. One of my friend lend me the DVD to watch it.
Since I like horror and suspense movie, of course I didnt hesitate to go see it.
The Story is about a Family Social Service Worker Emily Jenkins(Renee Zellweger) who seems to have seen it all. She met this 10 year old girl Lilith Sullivan(Jodelle Ferland) and the child's cruel parents. Little she know about the family, she folled her instinct and made tremendous efforts to save lily from the seemingly dangerous vibe she feels from parents. She took care of Lily while they search for a perfect foster family to move on. Little did she know, She help ignite a very dark supernatural force surrounding the kid and the greater horror had just begun...
The movie was good, it sorta kept me on the edge of my seat for a bit. The movie has a very good twist as it progress. What I like about this movie is the image and visualization they portray that leaves me wondering and imagining stuff. I have seen many Horror movies in the past, but this one still gives me the thrill ride while watching it, Even though some part/scenes on this one haved already played to my expectations of what is about to happen.I actually watched it twice, the reason is I wanted to kinda scare my friend, and it didnt work.
