Movies i watched in 2012 but not necessarily released this year.
1 drive - heard good reviews abt this film so i watched it without knowing the story. Wow quite speechless. On one hand i love it bcoz it was gritty and brutal with great acting esp from ryan gosling. On the other hand it was a bit slow bcoz it felt artsy and mood was a bit dark. (Or maybe i just finished exercising and i was feeling sleepy?). My bro didnt like it (but then he liked trespass over attack the block so i would say we just have some difference in tastes).
2 sorceror and white snake
I love wu xia films and anything jet li. Im not familiar with the legend though i think thr movie is not accurate. The film is okay. Lots of effects though sometimes i feel the effects are cheesy on some parts. Love jet lis fight scenes. Not sure who is the heroine or villain in this movie I dont really like white snake, shes stubborn but i can feel her pain. And for me i think thats the main idea of the movie. There are more than 2 sides to evry story n each one has impact on the others decisions. I like the sideplot on nengren.

3 mission impossible 4: ghost protocol
I dont remember the first 3 films but i love tom cruise so i watched this and was not disappointed. Heart stopping action and the stunts n missions are really impossible! I love simon pegg as a sidekick n jeremy renner as the newbie on the team. Hopefully they push thru with mi5!

4 alvin and the chipmunks 3: chipwrecked
Surprisingly there were very few song numbers in this movie and most are slow numbers from the chipettes. As usual alvin was annoying but glad he became good halfway thru the story. I think the story centered on simon, his cheesy and greasy lines to janette were funny and its nice for him to let loose

5 sherlock holmes 2: game of shadows
I dont particular like robert downey but i think he plays a good sherlock holmes. The sequel is different from the first in that the first focused on a case but we didnt know what sherlock was thinking until the end when there where flashbacks of all things he saw. The sequel focused on his rivalry with moriarty and the eventual faceoff where they fell off the falls. This time the movie highlights the clues for the audience and even the this is what ill do fight scenes which reminds me of kato's fight sequence in the green hornet movie. The movie itself wasnt that great as there was too much action and running and lots of dragging parts but good enough to hope for a third movie.

6 underworld awakening
I remember being in awe of the first movie but i dont remember watching the second film. The third one was as action packed as the previous movie but i thought thr plot was a bit thin though considering the movie was less than 1.5 hrs thats fine. Love kate beckinsale as selene, she is so kickass! Eve was kinda scary she looked more like the exorcist kid than a hybrid. The 3d didnt really feel 3d as the objects werent popping out as much as normal 3d action flicks.. i think it was more looking like a video game or a hologram. But still fun adrenaline movie to watch!

7 my cactus heart
not really a fan of maja and matteo.. i was just curious since they hyped the movie a lot.. the first few minutes of the movie looks promising.. they tried to do some edgy, indie-ish type of scenes like the video recording to introduce the family.. but when i saw that it's going to be a "let me tell you what happened before that made me what i am today", i was a bit disappointed. the story is very simple, it just shows you how a hopeless romantic nice guy makes a commitment phobe girl fall in love with him. the scenes were a bit pa-cute in some areas and while i was expecting xian lim to be an active love triange for the two, it wasn't so as it was so obvious that maja didn't like him at all. the story is more on should i love him or will he just break my heart? the ending went back to the usual star cinema-esque finales with the running after the guy to stop him from leaving and the grand declaration. still not a bad movie, but it's not something you will want to rewatch.
