Transformers: age of extinction


Muhahaha, I finally watched the new transformers' movie and my mind was blown away.Whether it was the good theater, IMAX screen and Dolby digital sound, OR the movie was really that good (which it was, seriously!) , the 3 hour felt more like an hour and I really wanted to see more.

There is just something about robots, and nice cars with new technologies , smart hot Asian  police girls and aliens with huge spaceships that makes me excited so very much. Especially when you see nice shiny  or carbonized race cars turning into giant robots and they fight and fly and kill, it is just amazing.

Well enough about that, this movies is about when human authorities decoded the transformers brains and they are mass producing them to kill the aliens, but the real transformers rise and try to stop it from happening because of a ... (well I guess I need to stop it otherwise this is gonna be a spoiler).

BUT, then there is the side story of the muscular poor heroic dad trying to save his even hott daughter and of course there is boyfriend who tries hard to be hot but fails. And what really annoyed me was the girl, with those gorgeous 2 meter of legs she could stop whining and actually be someone in the movie, and I waited and waited and waited for her to do something other than asking her dad and her boyfriend alternatively to protect her. The movie was extremely sexist because other than the Chinese lady doing some karate chopping and the geologist who was supposed to be the brain of the story but she did nothing, not even ended up falling in love with someone!!! the guys were doing all the work Good thing there was enough story with robots that they simply could remove all the humans and the movie would stay as interesting.


Go watch the movie already, 7.5/10 !!! XO

Nigh train to Lisbon


People would be amazed by knowing how many good movies are out there and they never heard about them.Every time I watch one of them, I am both excited because of the promise of good movies out there, and stressed out of what If I never find them.


The movie is about a professor from Swiss who accidentally helps a young girl while committing suicide and this gets him involved in an old story happening  I believe in 30s or 40s, when Portugal is dealing with their dictator of the time.The main character is a young doctor who joins the resistance group against the regime and falls in love with a girl in that group.A love triangle, the doctor helping an injured person from the regime, running away with the girl and all these make this movie something worthy of being watched.European themes movies are most of the time exciting, specially when they have a political element.

I believe when a movie doesn't need 3D effects, hit and run scenes, robots and strippers to keep the audience, It is indeed a must see, and this movie was one of them.There is not a lot of dialogue happening, but both the background music and the dark environment and the fear  are among the strong points of the movie.


I would definitely recommend watching this and give 6.5/10 to this movie.
