Cinema In October 2014

Lets make it short! last month, which is October i went to cinema for twice watching first, Annabelle and then the second is Dracula Untold. It was October, it supposed to be the month where horror and thriller films were dominated as we always know that October is perfect time for it, its Halloween and films studios spread out their horror-thriller film that month. But poor here, the only one cinema seemed kind of unsupported that. So, big hit last month was only Annabelle.

Annabelle, as we all do know it was in the family of Conjuring film, set as a spin off focused in that creepy as hell doll named Annabelle. The film was absolutely success, success in haunting viewers. But overall, it was a disappointment, the film was being produced as its root story The Conjuring was a smash hit in 2013 both critically and commercially, but this one Annabelle film couldn't get what The Conjuring was all about besides that intense head breaker sound fx and cheap jump scares. Review here.

The second was Dracula Untold, another bloodsucker saga staring Luke Evans. Well, to be honest this was actually a film that i didn't plan to watch but better be this one than nothing haha. But luckily i wasn't really had that smile satisfiedly out from studio, well the film is just like that. I mean i has nothing special but a better background of that monster but well, thats not bad either. I think that wasn't kind of film i would go to see in cinemas next time, LOL.

Cinema In September 2014

Before october ends, I am gonna update my monthly post, cinema recap. As most of previous month there was one film I saw in 21 Cineplex, by the way talking about number of films i watch in cinema it is not actually a regular schedule that I will watch film in cinema once in a month, but it could be more or even none at all because importantly it all depend on first what's the playing film and secondly most essentially what's the wallet going on haha. Oh hey return to the topic, the film I watched last month was Lucy.

Lucy, a total science fiction film, or its not fiction at all i don't know starring Scar Jo a.k.a Scarlett Johanssen and Morgan Freeman. This film centers on a story of a young woman portrayed by Johanssen who as the ability of maximizing her brain's skill capcity after accidentaly caught by some kind of drug mafia portrayed by a koreanese Choi Min-Sik and radiated by sort of drug which is planted into her belly.

Firstly this film is as expected as how i was expecting it would be to have Scarlett there in the film, she is denfining herself as one of today's finest female action figure, then anything goes crazier beyond what me can handle. I don't know is it because my brain who cannot reach anything possible to what 100% brain capacity would be like or is it really that 'eghh' seeing what happen in the end of the film. But shortly, this film still has something to enjoy and learn from aside from its beyond unimaginable fiction flavor.

Cinema In August 2014

Alright for the august edition I watched one film in cinema 21, it was Guardians of The Galaxy, the tenth film on Marvel Cinematic Universe, Film garapan sutradara James Gunn ini cukup ditunggu tunggu perilisannya, terutama beberapa minggu sebelum official release date di Indonesia. Pada perilisan trailer nya film ini tak terlalu begitu excited, mengira kalau film nya bakalan standar standar saja. Namun, ketika film resmi dirilis di US sana diikuti dengan rating beserta review yang sangat positif jadilah tingkat antisipasi memuncak dari hanya sekitar 50-70% menjadi 100% wajib nonton dan harus on time.

Dan, setelah film nya akhirnya nongol di sini, langsung cabut deh, kebetulan waktu itu milih jadwal yang sore dan ternyata studio nya gak penuh. Buat film nya sendiri worth to watch banget. Film dengan tampilan tone marvel yang khas dengan setting lokasi 99% berada di outerspace benar benar memberi satu rasa baru pada portofolio MCU series. Terlebih dalam soal isi film, karakter, VFX, musik dan plot nya benar benar mutually complete, 100% entertaining! Worth to wait buat sequel nya nanti 2017 mendatang.

Cinema In July 2014

Halo August, halo people, my dearest readers :) Its been quite a while since the last I entry my post to this blog, due to unknown reason I got my eyes, my hands, and my minds on something else lately. But now, i finally can overcome my laziness and start this up. For the first in August, as previous months the first is about cinema archive for the film i watched in cinema last month which is in July.

For the July edition, i watched only one film in cinema and it was Dawn of The Planet of The Apes. Yap! back stories behind that film's watching was actually because at that times it was only few or probably none films that could blow my mind up which released in July. This second installment in Planet Apes reboot film is the only that attracted me the most, and knowing that i watched the first film which starred James France, so i wast sort of curious about what's next. And after i watched it, not bad! entertaining and satisfying. So, this film is not a disappointment.

Cinema In June 2014

Halo readers, halo July. For the first month post I'd like to bring out the cinema tickets that I've got in the previous month in June. And last month, total i went to Cinema for three times watching three different films with the same no one a.k.a alone. The films were X-Men DoFP (Again), Oculus and Transformer Age of Extinction.

The story behind rewatching X-Men DoFP was actually because I was too freaked out about the film, it was great, best X-Men film ever! So, i decided to watch it again solo, besides when the first i watched it i wasn't a little bit enjoying it because i went to studio quite late, the film had already been begun and i got the front seat which made me realize that watching film in cinema and get a seat in the few front rows is sucks, the film is not looking good and the neck is not good too. So, never gonna do that again.

The second film i watched was Oculus, i was actually anticipating this film since the first i knew so when it finally hit local theatre I decide to watch it. But the film unfortunately left me something not so good, i mean i didn't think it was the film, horror kind of film i would love to see in Cinema. Its good, it has good thrilling actions, but the horrors i want more than just a back and forth plots.

The last, the most surprisingly film I watched in Cinema is Transformer 4, Age of Extinction. Transformer things has never been film i would to see in Cinema or even in my laptop because i'm not really a fan of it. But when it comes to this film, I was impressed to see the trailer, so i was attracted to watch it. But anw, knowing that i didn't follow the story of the first three prequels so i decide to watch this as an entertainment only, enjoying the action and remarkable visual effects. No serious feelings.

Cinema In May 2014

Untuk bulan Mei kemarin, I watched 2 films in the same Cinema, the only one cinema in town. They are X-Men: Days of Future Past dan satu lagi Edge of Tomorrow.

Pas nonton DoFP rada-rada gelisah gitu, pasalnya film gak nyampe tepat waktu. Yang seharusnya rilis di indonesia tanggal 21 Mei tapi di tasik ternyata belum nyampe atau belum kesampean filmnya tayang on time. Padahal ya X-Men ini kan salah satu most anticipated film of the year, salah satu summer blockbuster tapi gak tau dan gak ngerti. Kebetulan hari rilis nya itu bukan weekend, setelah di duga-duga ternyata bener. Film nya playing pas weekend malem minggu. Rencana nonton rada ragu, waktu itu pertama nya emang niat nya mau nonton sendiri berhubung dikit atau gak ada sama sekali temen yang fanatik sama X-Men, tapi alhamdulillah salah satu temen yang baik banget udah lahir di bulan mei memberikan traktiran tiket X-Men DoFP tepat dimalam pertama diputar di 21Tasik. Seneng banget dan terimakasih pandaaa :D

Pas nonton Edge of Tomorrow itu bener-bener dadakan, soalnya gak ada rencana sama sekali buat nonton, tau film nya aja pas deket-deket mau rilis. Dan setelah cari info tentang film nya itu sendiri, penasaran pun mendera berhubung yang main Emily Blunt. Dan ternyata film nya malah datang on time jadilah ada acara nonton dadakan. Sendiri ya, but fine i get use to it :D

Oh, kebetulan untuk kedua film nya I have written the reviews, read them below:

• X-Men: Days of Future Past Review
• Edge of Tomorrow Review

Cinema In April 2014

Rasanya udah lama banget sejak terakhir gue ngeupdate cinema tag, lagian emang gak nonton ke biokop juga, dan ini adalah postingan petama sekaligus nonton pertama di tahun 2014, yap di bulan April. Maklum la ya, mahasiswa belum bisa bikin duit sendiri, noton pun harus pilih - pilih baik itu dengan siapa, waktu nya, film nya apa dan kondisi dalam dompet nya begimana . ahhaha perih dah.

Film pertama yang gue tonton di 2014 ini adalah The Raid 2 : Berandal. Berhubung gue yang pertama nonton, pas sequel kedua nya rilis gue penasaran juga. Dan ternyata emang cukup memuaskan, mengibur dan gak nyesel gue waktu itu nonton nya sore mana ujan gede pula tapi semuanya berkahir indah. Film nya untuk ukuran film lokal meskipun directornya orang wales, tapi bener bener bagus dan luar biasa. Aksi laga dan kejar - kejaran di jalanan Jakarta nya udah bawa taste hollywood ke tanah air. Meskipu, gue sejujurnya agak kurang masuk dalam karakter - karakter nya, terutama siapa siapa dan nama - namanya, lupa gitu lah nama karakternya jadi kadang harus mikir dulu. But overall gue kasih 4/5 stars for this film.

Cinema In November 2013

Cinema di bulan November cuman 1 yakni The Hunger Games: Catching Fire, sequel dari film terdahulunya The Hunger Games ini sukses membayar lunas kepenasaranan dan ke-exciting-an gue soal ni film. Sejak beberapa bulan sebelum rilis, gue emang niatin di hati pengen banget nonton ni film selian karena gue ngikutin which I'm probably nearly Tributes (sebutan fans the Hunger Games), ada Jennifer Lawrance yang reprise as katniss juga, Jennifer artis fave gue ya sekarang hehe.

About the film itself, I was actually enjoying every minute of it, bener - bener thrilling dari awal sampe beberapa menit sebelum berkahir, terlepas dari ending-nya yang bikin gue pengen bilang "loh kok" sambil goyang bang jali, gue puass!! cuman ya ending itu aja, ngegantung banget! tapi ya gue percaya ya kelanjutannya kan buat next The Hunger Games yang bakalan rilis untuk filem ketiga nya di tahun depan 2014 berjudul The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 1 dan seri terkahir yang akan menyimpulkan semua cerita mengenai Katniss Everdeen di Film Mockingjay Part 2 yang akan rilis tahun 2015.

Adegan yang bikin ghoosebump, of course the end nya dong pas si lambang pin mockingjay nya berevolusi dari sayap nya yang tertutup kini terbuka, Katniss is a hope!

Cinema In September 2013

Di bulan September 2013 ini gue nonton 2 filem di satu bioskop yang sama tapi dengan orang berbeda, yaitu yang pertama Elysium dan yang kedua Insidious Chapter 2, here are some reviews :

Elysium

Waktu itu gue nonton nya sama temen SMK gue, ceritanya perpisahan pasalnya dia mau pergi jauh gitu katanya mau terbang ke Korea demi mengejar impian nya, Good Luck yoo!. About the film, overall menurut gue cukup menghibur, ceritanya kuat, karakter pemainnya dapet, meski endingnya sad ending karena si pemeran utama (Matt Damon) meninggal. Gue rate 3.5 dari 5 poin.

Insidious Chapter 2

Gue nonton film super horror ini bareng temen nonton gue, kalo gak diajak aja gue gak bakalan nonton, abis nya lagi pengIRITan si,haha tapi akhirnya kegoda karena penasaran juga sama hantu hantu di Insidious pe kabare gitu haha . Film nya asli horror nya dapet, sound effect nya memekakan tapi ya mungkin emang gitu ya supaya bikin penonton menjerit jerit. Gue juga sempet beberapa kali terkaget - kaget, saking si hantunya banyak dan serem juga haha. Tapi gue rada telat juga soal nya ni Film alurnya maju mundur gitu but overall its bloody creepy! I rate 3.9 dari 5.
