Bates Motel (2013–2017)

standing ovation for Freddie Highmore!

[9/10 · 9 March 2019]

This is very good story! The timeline went so smooth but intense all seasons!

Crazy Rich Asians (2018)

Is it really Singaporean?

[5/10 · 15 September 2018]

I heard too much from people that said this movie really good and touching so I set the bar pretty high when I watched.

The character of Nick Young is not charming enough as the RICH ASIAN eventho he meant to be 'down to earth new yorker'. As the good boyfriend Nick Young is very very failed, what kind of boyfriend who knew what kind of family he has and act like no care about his girlfriend appearance.

And Rachel Chu, what kind of girl that never googling the boyfriend nowadays! Her crush is basically celebrity in Singapore!

The mother of Nick Young, Eleanor doesn't make sense, she had almost same background with Rachel yet still reject her! Shame!

Lucky there is Peik Lin and her family that make this movie a little bit colorful.

They only show the rich and power from word of mouth, driving good car, jewelery. No scenes describe how powerful this family in singapore. They make the story pretty slow, cheesey and predictable.

The last thing, the culture in singapore is already very western where people choose to work than making family (you can google it), so this movie is not relate with what really happened in singapore maybe they choose wrong Asia, I still can accept if their setting in China. The older people of the family is like untouchable of technology so they still think like ancient.

You dont have to spend your 2 hours and money to watch this, just open the youtube for the trailer you get all the movie telling you about.

The Equalizer 2 (2018)

Build the character so long

[6/10 · 14 August 2018]

So slow, I was wondering why the movie need build the Mc Cal character that long, around 45 min with no major conflict.. He just keep helping people around him while working as lyfe (uber) driver..

And as usual Denzel Washington can't be hurt and as strong as hulk! He is way too easy to fight the enemies. The storyline is so predictable, with unknowing reason why who pay who, who killed who..

A Quiet Place (2018)

They supposed to be really quiet

[7/10 · 27 July 2018]

This is so tense but a bit disappointing when finally they talk by whispering and waterfall scene..

Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again (2018)

Curving my lips :)

[8/10 · 27 July 2018]

This movie makes you smile all day long when you are done. Lily James is super charming, energic, and so cheerful.. She successed to redeem the miss-cast of Meryl Streep as Donna Sheridan. In the past scene, I really hope Sam and Donna will sing S.O.S song, would be very good. Unfortunately they didn't! I just thought what if the young Sam, Harry, and Bill are the well-known actor. Actually all good, but I can say only young Bill can fit with young Donna. Who are the actor you think can be fitted? Let me know! I also love the chemistry between Amanda Seyfried and Pierce Brosnan as father and daughter, ya! You can say it: Everyone will love Sophie, the amazing lovely girl. Must Watch Drama Musical!

Like Sunday, Like Rain (2014)

Slowly touching

[6/10 · 24 July 2018]

This movie is very slow, if you don't have any passion dont try to watch this movie. They have so many conflict, but not all of the confilct solved. The bonding between Eleanor and Reggie were so slow but at the end so good. My tears almost fall to saw that Reggie hurts of goodbye. After all, this is good but not must watch

Vikings (2013–2020)

SHIELD WALL!!!

[8/10 · 18 July 2018]

The storyline and the character are great. The main character Ragnar is not firm, looked unstable yet stubborn so make the audience feel not too relate with the Great Ragnar. Another character make you adore them like Bjorn and Lagertha, another make you feel like in the middle of love-hate-relationship like Floki, Aslaug, Ivar, Siggy, etc. The timeline also confusing, suddenly old, suddenly grown up, suddenly back and forth to the city. The conflict is good, complicated and make us wondering what will be happened there. Great show!

Don't Breathe (2016)

Please! Don't Breath!

[8/10 · 18 July 2018]

This movie made me hold my breath everytime the villain there. Like I was in the movie and really wants to escape. Twisted ending and super tense!

Split (IX) (2016)

James McAvoy Nailed It!

[9/10 · 18 July 2018]

He did things more than anyone can expect him to do. I really like the way he act, it is funny, creepy, curious, and make you hold your breath in the same time! Must Watch movie!

Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom (2018)

Unexpected Setting

[6/10 · 18 July 2018]

It is kinda weird to see dinosour in the mansion. I don't like the settings because it less amazing than the previous one. Too many villain in one movie. And again, too easy to defeat the dino! The main character are too emotional, they choose dino over mankind. What a hero!!! And there are a unfinished conflict, which was sounds so important like "you are cloning" things then that's all.. no longer intrigue at that conflict but crying a while.

The Shallows (2016)

Lucky You! Blake Lively is Here..

[4/10 · 18 July 2018]

This movie is very very very boring and freaking weird! Like in this movie the shark really has mind to targeting just one person for days. The only reason you stay watching this movie is just because Blake Lively looked so hot there nothing's more.

Hormones (2013–2015)

Nostalgic with your SHS Moment

[8/10 · 18 July 2018]

This series has 3 season, which the first 2 season are very good, but the last one has no serious conflict than school organization things.

Let me write about season 1-2. With very popular actor and actress this series really attract people. In the story, they have different character with different background. This story really close with our daily life or at least school age..

Skyscraper (2018)

Reckless and unlogical

[5/10 · 18 July 2018]

Johnson has no weakness even with 1.5 leg. He was way too strong like his other movies. With almost no jokes, make this movie very lame. We can't expect anything by watching this movie but shock. The producer just like want us to be amazed by the technologies of the building without logic. At the end of the movies, the fire just off using the tablet technology while all half of the building was on fire. How could you use the fire security technology while the fire eat half of the building, all the windows broken and the technology still went well. And the most ridiculous thing is when Dwayne Johnson climb the building like spiderman does using the ductape and rope.

I have to admit the storyline is not bad, but the action cant be accepted by our brain.

Escape Plan 2: Hades (2018)

Shame

[1/10 · 26 June 2018]

This movie really terible, the story line is not understand-able, the acting and the effect are so bad! Too many naration in that movie, I feel like Sylvester Stallon was a just motivator rather than main character. I can score it zero if I can!
