CLASH OF THE TITANS 3D 

On Good Friday, I went to watch Clash of the Titans with my parents :)

Storyline: Well, kinda like Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thief, the main motivation that keeps the protagonist going is his rage for revenge. Perseus fights demons and creatures from the netherworld (Medusa). Eventually, he falls in love like any other hero. 

Verdict: Well, nice effects and all but the 3D was not 3D enough. It should be really POPPED OUT. I guess it is cause it was a 2D-convert-3D movie. But still... And the storyline just isn't novel enough. But the fighting moments helped it lift the mark up. The pretty women in it helped too. x) The comedic moments in it livened the movie up. The irony in it too...(scorpian king trying to kill the giant scropian.... take that.)

Rating: 3.5/5 An okay movie which will set your heart pumping.

THE TIME TRAVELLER'S WIFE

Watched it because my father rented the disc. :D

Storyline: Henry met Clare when she was just 6 and when Henry was 40+. Now, Henry, 20+, is meeting Clare, 20+, for the first time. Amzing huh? Well, Henry is a time traveller. He travels involuntarily and whenever he does, he arrives at his destination naked as he does not get to bring his clothed along. (wow.) The time travelling tests the couple's love as Clare risks miscarriage due to the time travelling child. Another horrible truth dawns upon Henry as well....

Verdict: Wonderful movie. Absolutely wonderful. The actor and actress (Henry and Clare) should be given an award for this. They had so much chemistry and the acting was just great! :) Luv them. The touching storyline is sure to break your heart. You will definitely want to read the book after this! (I just reserved it! xD)

Rating: 4/5 A great movie! Must-watch! :)

14 BLADES

My dad rented the disc. :D

Storyline: China in the olden times. There is a plan to throw the country into chaos. Qinglong, a skilled swordsman who uses the legendary 14 blades, is determined to stop the plan.

Verdict: The storyline about China and blah blah is kinda hard to get with so many names like Prince Qing and stuff. The fighting is exciting, as usual. Qiyuwu looks kinda... dumb? The protagonist is too short. >< Overall, the story is okay. I like the ending. Partially because it is real and the protagonist dies~ :D Call me sadist or whatever but then the movie really faces reality. ^^

Rating: 3.5/5 Not a bad watch.

Am now currently waiting to watch Obsessed as well as my the book, The Time Traveller's Wife :D
