The Catch: All the muscular gran-pops ;)
It was kinda amusing to watch this movie, especially the 2mins appreance of Arnold SCHWARZENNEGER & Bruce WILLIS. Can't really understand Jet LI's english :(

The Girl who Kicked The Hornet's Nest / Luftslottet Som Sprängdes (17/08/10 - Swedish)
The Catch: What's next for Lisbeth?
I'm gonna stop commenting on Lisbeth (not to say it's getting bad, but it's still the same strong character I loved!). Great ending, consistent on the story line. STRONGLY recommended to watch!

Centurion (15/08/10)
The Catch: Olga KURYLENKO
I would like to call this movie as a Roman version of 300 - Spartans. Guess what? There's even a resemblance on the cast (Michael FASSBENDER & Dominic WEST). In my personal opinion, I don't think Centurion is a good movie. I might not really keen on 300 - Spartans, but I still catch the 'artistic' angle of it. But this? Really?

The Girl who Played with Fire / Flickan Som Lekte Med Elden (15/08/10 - Swedish)
The Catch: Lisbeth Lisbeth Lisbeth
Again, I must admit Noomi RAPACE is a very good actress. I am not familiar about her but I just love the way she brings Lisbeth's character in a very dark-gothic yet simple & sophisticated.
Can't thank enough to Stieg LARSSON for writing such a great novel & creating brilliant character!

The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo / Man Som Hatar Kvinnor (12/08/10 - Swedish)
The Catch: Said to be the best trilogy ever made
Applause for Stieg LARSSON for his remarkable book. I love every twist of this movie. The dark-gothic Lisbeth SALANDER was really well-played by Noomi RAPACE. Even the director Niels ARDEN OPLEV praises her when the movie received many good reviews.
Rest assure Hollywood will create their own version, where Mikael BLOMKVIST will be played by Daniel CRAIG. As for Lisbeth, names like Natalie PORTMAN and Emma WATSON are still in the air. We'll see how the remake goes...
Can't wait for the sequels: The Girl who Played with Fire (Flickan Som Lekte Med Elden) and The Girl who Kicked Hornet's Nest (Luftslottet Som Sprangdes).
Update (22/08/10): Lisbeth's character will be played by newcomer Mara ROONEY.

The Last Airbender (06/08/10)
The Catch: If you like Lord of The Ring to be made in Chinese, then you'll like this!
Amateur actors, slow-mo actions, repeated dialog. Very disappointed...

Salt (05/08/10)
The Catch: Jolie in blond / black?
Jolie seems more natural in this movie. Like her in this one, not so Lara Croft or Mrs. Smith -i.e. too exaggerating-

After Shock (01/08/10 - Mandarin)
The Catch: ?
I thought this will be one of the historical movie emphasized. Turns out, so dramaaa...
I guess I should've seen the tagline before bought the ticket.

The Crazies (25/07/10)
The Catch: Another Romero's thriller
Not much to say, bottom line is... Useless efforts!

Sorcerer's Apprentice (24/07/10)
The Catch: (none)
At least it's making a lot more sense than Percy Jackson :p

Inception (17/07/10)
The Catch: For most ppl: LeoDiCaprio. For me: CillianMurphy
The good thing is that I completely understand where the story flows.
The bad thing is that it's so Shutter Island.
I am just happy to leave the cinema un-puzzled :D

Despicable Me (10/07/10)
The Catch: Millions of Minions
I used to like how animated character resembled to the dubber. But this one is rather different.
Let's not mention Gru, we can see the big Jason SEGEL on the contrary of skinny Vector + Russell BRAND voicing Dr. Nefario!?!?!
It said: A bad man doesn't always bad ;)

Predators (10/07/10)
The Catch: Watch a mercenaries, death squad-er, Yakuza, convicts and doctor 'working' together.
Unfortunately I have never seen the original version of Predators, so can't compare Adrien to Arnie ;)
Overall it wasn't so bad. Not too dark, at least we have a clear view of what's going on, not always swamp-ing =P

Twilight Saga: Eclipse (03/07/10)
The Catch: Carlisle Cullen!!!
When everybody's screaming for Edward or Jacob, I'm still standing on my Carlisle =D
Bryce Dallas-Howard, good substitute of Rachelle Levefre.

Repo Man (03/07/10)
The Catch: Unreasonably believable
Everything could happen in this mad-crazy world. I do believe that someday, this reel could be real. However, the ending is kinda errr...
* Seeing Carice van Houten here, look familiar but no recognition at all.

Letters to Juliet (30/06/10)
The Catch: My mom said it's good
I find it casual... But I just love Seyfried's eye make-up ;p

Knight & Day (26/06/10)
The Catch: The reunion of Cruise & Diaz
Although I'm quite a fan of Diaz, I'm not so keen on this one.
Story: too Mr & Mrs. Smith
Filming: too up-close
Acting: rated so-so

Toy Story 3 (26/06/10)
The Catch: Toy Story... A Touching Story...
It's NOT just a TOY story, but there's a deep feeling, relationship and meaning of 'always being there for you'. Two words: Love It.

Karate Kid (13/06/10)
The Catch: Jaden SMITH
He's originally and profoundly professional. Can't really imagine how he act in front of both of his parents. I adore his expression, very deep and 'mature'. I bet Jada & Will are very proud of him.

The A-Team (13/06/10)
The Catch: At first, Bradley Cooper.
Turns out, it's Liam Neeson. He's one h*ll of a hot hunk at his age...

Nanny McPhee & The Big Bang (05/06/10)
The Catch: McPhee, with little 'c' and big 'P'
Another family movie. Good tips to teach your little one :)

Marmaduke (05/06/10)
The Catch: Dedicated for Owen Wilson's BIG fans
Yeap! If you're only a fan maybe this movie will disappoint you a bit. Unless you're a little kid who like dogs so much. It's a family movie, if I may say.

The Killers (05/06/10)
The Catch: Ashton Kutcher, the more you see him, the 'moore' you get ;)
It's only good from the first half of the movie, the rest? Not so much... I think it's too much action and not really funny. I also find Heighl a bit too 'mature' for Kutcher.
