nanananana...BATMAN!

Helloo everyone!

I have finally got back on track with my blogging, I'm really terrible at this; but i'll get the hang of it...eventually!
I watched batman the day after it was released here in lovely Singapore, and might I add it was packed thank god I have very organised family and we booked the tickets :)
The film was about 3hours which I didn't even realize it was brilliant, everything that happened I didn't even expect, I don't want to spoil it as it was just realist so stop reading HERE:
Christian Bale transitioned his characters well from Bruce Wayne to Batman; he really gave the movie it edge where the lovely Michael Cane (Alfred) gave the movie its sadness and you felt sorry for both characters and you really feel part of the movie, which is what I really enjoyed.
Tom Hardy (Bane) who I didn't even recognized, he really did an amazing job playing the Bane for someone so strong but actually in the shadow of the beautiful Marion Cotillard (Miranda Tate) who was actually Talia al Ghul who is  the one trying to blow up Gotham City; although helped Wayne Enterprises.
The twist of plot was well shown and placed and ending had to be the best part, I was actually on the edge of my seat when the bomb was in it's last minutes of exploding and to see it explode you could feel the different emotions from the different characters.
Joseph Gordon-Levitt (Blake), really had a big part in the movie, being the one who really got batman back on track and to find out his real name is Robin, well that let off a big *gasp* in the audience, was not expecting that. Anne Hathaway really did amazing with Catwoman, she looked amazing and her acting was amazing, she was defiantly one though cookie haha I can't say more!
I was expecting for batman to live, so to see him in Paris across the table he smiles to Alfred, I think everyone smiled back with him; and for him to give the house away to the orphanage was a nice touch to the ending as well.
It was a typical happy ending, but it all added up together which I liked, it defiantly deserves:
☆  ☆  ☆  ☆  ☆- 5 stars 
The directing was brilliant how the shots made you feel part of the film, I liked how he didn't follow the 3D film train as most superhero films are using it, and he still manged to do a brilliant job with it.
The only problem I had with the film was that you really had to remember the last film at times which could have been a problem for some people, as it was a little for me; but that was the only thing I spotted.

Summer ☼

SUMMERR nuff said. :)

During a trip to Hong Kong I went to visit my friends over there and we went to watch the amazing spider-man. Before I get into it, I loved Andrew Garfield in Never Let Me Go, I loved the book and the whole cast did an amazing job with that movie so for me to find out he was playing spider-man made me the happiest person ever and he didn't let me down. I prefer him as Peter Parker as he plays the awkward science geek far more better than Tobey. Emma Stone was amazing as usual, she played Gwen perfectly, being Parker's first love you can really see there chemistry together (also supposedly being a real life couple as well!). Rhys Ifans played an amazing villain and was not expecting that to happen, scared the living day lights out of me; especially when Gwen was hiding in the room from the lizard, I think we all jumped with her. For the movie as the whole it was brilliant there was not one part that I wasn't interested in or didn't bore me. 
Can't say anything more about it, I have to admit the old spider-man didn't amaze me as much as this one (although I did love Tobey Maguire) I have to say this has been a favorite yet!
☆  ☆  ☆  ☆  ☆- 5 stars It was truly amazing and they've picked the best actors yet for this one!

2nd movie I watched when I got back with my friends was the Chernobyl Diaries, haven't heard of it link to the trailer here :)
So this movie is not my type, I was dragged to watch it as I hate scary movies, but knowing it was the director of paranormal activity, it kind of gave me hope that it isn't as scary as most movies are, as I could put up with the paranormal franchise.
The whole point of the movie is guy is living in some place in either Ukraine or Russia and his little brother ( who happens to be  Jesse McCartney ) comes out with his girlfriend and her best friend. The older brother suggests to go to this place called 
Chernobyl, might I add is a real place in Ukraine. In 1986 one of the four nuclear reactors had exploded in Chernobyl which let off radio active materials into the atmosphere which affected this whole town and left them to flee their town.
The set must have been film not been filmed there, but the set was amazing comparing it to the real life area (which I might add looks like COD!) The movie wasn't as scary as the trailer makes it but there are some parts the really get you so I give the movie:
☆  ☆  ☆ - 3 Stars for the set and the movie as a whole as you generally feel sorry for these people!
A movie I didn't really hype about but I suggest you go out and watch it as it was still a pretty good film!

Songs of the month:

Frank Ocean - Thinking About You (You don't even know how much I love this song)
Connor Maynard - Can't Say No (Been listening to this kid for years now, so proud of him :') catchy tune too!)

Hope everyone is having a wonderful summer! Hope all is well and ttyl
