movie reviews
there're many things i have to say,but lets get these reviews out of the way first. so last weekend i watched 2 movies, the first of which was Step Up. this movie shot to number 1 in the US, and remained at the top spot for several weeks, shocking all the critics, who panned it as a lousy movie with no plot.ok, so the plot was ur run of the mill plot. this movie shares similarities with you got served's plot, which doesn't have what umight call a mind bending plot anyway. boy is a poor kid, does community service at a school, falls in love with girl who's out of his league, girl falls in love with boy, shit happens, boy chickens out, someone dies, boy has a moment of enlightenment, goes back to girl, and everything is happy and dandy again.
yes i know, no stretch of the imagination by any means.
but still, i loved the movie. in fact, i loved it so much, i wanna go watch it again when dinesh comes back. i loved the music in the movie. hip hop fused with classical. veryyyy nice. and the dance scenes!!amazing. one thing this movie did with you got served didn't do was to spread out the dance bits evenly, so there wasn't a huge lull in the movie when only the thin plot was holding it up. i highly highly recommend it to music and dance fanatics, you'll be able to appreciate the difficulty levels of the moves, and the challenge of choreographing your own piece.
enjoy the trailer. =)
this movie was fantastic, the plot twist, the acting, hugh jackman's abs...nothing was wrong with this movie. the structure was also fantastic, i loved how they shifted the timeframes quite fluidly and made the audience wonder wait, what the hell is going on here!!! christian bale was creepy. its amusing how they tried to one up each other all the time, and took it to such freaky levels. good movie, i'd recommend it.the thing is, i'd rather watch step up over this one, mostly cos i want something a little easy on the brain these days.
see lah what happens when u start working. muchos besos,
