Rocky Balboa

What I loved most: The Training Scenes with the Rocky Theme Playing, Rock On!

What I really hated: Why didn't the make the movie longer

Wonderful short story abt being the underdog, not giving up on your dreams and the stuff you love to do. The character's fight against someone much younger and better, sorts of influences you. You get the with enough willpower and all you can overcome all odds. Also the training scenes with the famous rocky theme playing in the background. Damm! you can never get sick of that.

The Curse Of The Golden Flower

What I loved most: Refer to Title

What I really hated: pointless plot

As of all the other nowadays Chinese big budget movies, it has hell lots of nice "pretty" visuals & effects. But the plot itself doesn't quite stand by itself despite having quite a star studded cast of chow yuan fat, Gong Li and jay chou. Not really a must see movie, although everyone will be talking about it at the water cooler, about how bad it is.

All The King's Men

What I loved most: Sean Penn's performance

What I really hated: Too short of a storyline

The basic storyline is very short, but sean penn played out his role wonderfully. Directional and script was great. Words and actions were acted out with emotions and all. But don't be too disappointed but its rather short storyline spread across 2 hrs.

Death Note 2 The Last Name

What I loved most: The twists in the story

First off i have to admit that i have read the comic so i ain't that pleased with the changes in the storyline. But on a whole the storyline without knowing the comic version is still quite 'solid' and engaging. If you have watched the first you must catch this one. I strongly recommend to read the comic though as it is more complicated than the movie

Tenacious D In: The Pick Of Destiny

What I loved most: nothing much

What I really hated: boring storyline

Although Jack Black is talented, i guess there's just too much of him nowadays. And with each film it gets a little worst, Nacho Libre was average enough this just brings it down a notch. First there's no solid storyline the actually storyline could last maybe 1/2 hr but is dragged and stretched long. The jokes were also not funny. Visuals and all weren't spectacular or nothing to say actually.

Casino Royale

What I loved most: Outline of bond's future character

What I really hated: crappy opening

Its nice in a way but a little far from your normal bond perception, this bond doesn't have all th fancy gadgets, rough around the edges and best of all violence solves everything. Its a movie to watch, just don't hold your expectations too high. Else get drowned in your disappointment.
