star wars ix: rise of skywallker is good.

i find it the best of the trilogy 7-8-9... 4/5.

the story completes and ends with a happy ending... mostly.

the cgi and special effects are excellent in the last 20 mins or so.

not to spoil it.. i will just leave it with this part i like the most... "I am all sith" vs "and I am all jedi".

so, the 3 x 3 trilogies come to a close. if any spinoff movie, my bet is it will be The Mandalorian.... since solo is a dead duck.

Finish watching Onward. It was ok, not the best from Pixar. 3 Star.

I actually like this film. Its not meant to be a film about an earth shattering event, but more like a seemingly insignificant event but we get to follow the sequence in which it unfolded continuously. So its very enjoyable if we watch it as a spectator with little expectation.

Great editing which made it looked like a continuous uncut film except perhaps once or twice.

This film reminded me of Gravity which has good cinematography (I think anyway) and the soundtrack added into the tension greatly. For me 1917's soundtrack played a significant part.

i see.. yeah but now most rip is only HDR10+ at most. too bad lg c9 doesnt support HDR10+, not sure how much we losing out on this but i guess it is not too much. Ouch the AppleTV macam ini.. maybe need think twice.. actually my setup currently also cannot support atmos.. but i am trying to get a good soundbar in near future la.. cos ARC also means i losing out on TrueHD etc.. Probably i pull a HDMI cable from my PC to get direct output.. if not need to get nvidia shield..

Current setup of mine for Plex.
1. nVidia Shield (old version)
2. HT-ST5000 sounbar
3. Cheap Sony TV KD-55X7500F

So no HDR10+ and Dolby Vision. But still looks great.

ur soundbar is relatively more exp than u TV lol..

ur soundbar is relatively more exp than u TV lol..

Haha... Not going to change better TV soon. will wait..

Just finish watched Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker. 3.5 Star
It was quite enjoyable & finally ended! but ........... "so this is the start of X-Men" .... ....

Brilliant Visual and Audio, outstanding 4K UHD HDR film.
- Visual 5 Star
- Audio 5 Star

Bloodshot - OK, quite entertain. 3.5 Star.

Knives Out (2019)

Okay!

I admitted it, I am a BIG murder mystery fan.

I love the last Murder On The Orient Express (2017) based of an Agatha Christie's book.

I am looking forward to Murder on the Nile.

Columbo, A Murder She Wrote (that was an easter egg on this), Monk Alfred Hitchcock, et cetera, et cetera.

Rian Johnson (director) seems to be a dirty name to Star Wars fan (because of the diversive Last Jedi), this movie proves he is an amazing director.

To... purge himself of the Star Wars project, he did this. A story he had been toying with for a long time! What a story!!

The Cast, of my goodness, the cast, here is who is in this?

Daniel Craig (as Benoit Blanc)
Chris Evans (as Ransom Drysdale)
Ana de Armas (as Marta Cabrera)
Jamie Lee Curtis (as Linda Drysdale)
Michael Shannon (as Walt Thrombey)
Don Johnson (as Richard Drysdale)
Toni Collette (as Joni Thrombey)
LaKeith Stanfield (as Lieutenant Elliott)
Christopher Plummer (as Harlan Thrombey)
Jaeden Martell (the kid from IT) (as Jacob Thrombey)

Mind Blown!!!

Everyone one BROUGHT IT!!

Not in a competitive but a complimentary way.

Chris Evans has proven there are good roles after Captain America.

Christopher Plummer is still so good.

Ana de Armas a relatively new actress and went toe to toe with all these veteran actors!!

Daniel Craig, why I do declare, is he s southern colonel here!!?!

I don't want to spoil this for you.

Watch this.

You will not regret it

Video EXCELLENT

Sound Good

My Two Sen

Bloodshot... is ok, but could have been better. 2.5/5.

bloodshot is a valiant comics character, not so well known like those from dc or marvel.

vin diesel did ok, old school action; stars guy pearce as well.

given it is a box office bomb, unsure if there will be more as sequels or others from the franchise.




extra... westworld season 3 is on.
if u liked s1, s2, u gotta watch s3.
new characters incl aaron paul (breaking bad), vincent cassel (black swan, jason bourne)
i already like it when it starts to go down the matrix rabbit hole - real world, westworld, simulated constructs.

bro..bloodshot bluray version out d? i m waiting for the BR version lol..

Cats - 0 Star !!!

Singing suck, costume suck, story-line freaking dumb, OMG! This is like everybody talk, after watch you need to wash your eye!

Wow, Bloodshot is KL based huh?
loved the elevator fight!

I watched Doctor Sleep last night.
Ok I admit I'm very slow ... LOL

I love it especially the surround sound effects.
I watched the 3 hour director's cut version with Dolby Atmos audio.
The surround sounds is superb. Very immersive.
The surround sound effects really places the viewer into the movie stage

Horror movies makes the best use of ceiling sound effects.
Action movies tends to very loud impact sound effects all over the place, hence the surround effects are not so obvious.
Horror movies makes use of the surround effects better and the sound coming from above, behind or sides are clear.

Haha! Pretty awesome right and great sound effect.

good to see u guys still here watching movies

stars wars was quite enjoyable
