First Little Step, Movies

Ever since semester break started, I went to watch a few movies that were out during the Summer. First movie that I watched was Inception.

 The whole idea of this movie was just brilliant! I have not seen such a good movie for a long time. Inception brings the idea of manipulating one's mind when it is at its most vulnerable time which is when we are dreaming. Inception is a process to insert an idea to one person through manipulation one's dream. It is a MUST WATCH!! movie. It's graphics are brilliant and i was surprised that it did not come out in 3D version. It would be totally awesome though.

Another movie that I've watched is The Last Airbender.

Have you watched Avatar: The Last Airbender on Nickelodeon before? Well, this movie which was directed by M.Night Shyamalan was based on the cartoon series made for kids and aired on Nickelodeon. The movie is about a world that has people who can bend/manipulate elements of their tribe. The four elements are Air, Water, Earth and Fire. The people known as the Waterbenders, Earthbenders, Firebenders, and Airbenders have mastered their native elements. However there is one person that is able to manipulate all elements which is called the Avatar. Aang, a 12 year old boy which was born withing the Airbender tribe was the latest reincarnated Avatar.

Because of his young age, he could not stand to bear the world on his shoulder. He ran away and disappeared for 100 years and when he returned to the world, the Fire Nation was plotting an evil plot to take over the world (every villain's dream). Together with Sokka and Katara, he set out to learn all the other elements he had not learned to defeat the Fire Nation.

Personally I would give it a rating of 4/10. The movie had amazing graphics and scenery but somehow the actors and actresses had not lived up to their true potential of their skills. I don't know about you but I find the casts a little stiff and their dialogue were simple.


That aside, the fun parts were the bending or the manipulation of the elements.

Looking forward to watch Salt next and will be looking out for the next Narnia movie! (this one is still far away though).

That's all.. Skipping out. Chaoz!
