Harry Potter and Half of Blood Prince Review

Summary

In Harry Potter's sixth year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft, Harry finds a book marked mysteriously, "This book is the property of the Half Blood Prince," which helps him excel at Potions class and teaches him a few dark and dangerous ones along the way. Meanwhile, Harry is taking private lessons with Dumbledore in order to find out about Voldemort's past so they can find out what might his only weakness.


Long time I not see this movie~ but i feel that the previous movie; Harry Potter 1, 2 and 3 are better than now. After that, I not see the Harry Potter movie 4 and 5 again because I always busy with my studies. I also have the collection books - Harry Potter at my home! :D I think that it is better to read the books than watch movie because sometimes the movie have to be shorten time and separate the different scenes.


They not always use magic to fight with the evil people and it showed that less action only, so, they also used to talk alot lot..but there are an interesting scene about how to study magic in the Hogwarts school; Harry is also learning a lot from an old Potions textbook that contains clever notes from someone self-styled the "Half-Blood Prince.". And they played interesting game, Quidditch but this game don't take long time.. :(

The 6th movie isn't too scary for the kids, with a good dose of humor, relationship between friends - Love, charm , and more close with dark forces. This chapter ends with a moment of steeled resolve as Harry prepares himself to make the journey and fight his enemies..

To be honest, I am really boring because it took 2 1/2 hours long! It make me want to sleep :( Hehe..I hope that next movie will be better on next year!

Ice Age 3: Dawn Of The Dinosaurs

Summary

Manny, Sid, Diego, and Ellie are back in this third film in the computer-animated Ice Age series! Manny and Ellie are expecting their first baby, while Sid the sloth tries an unconventional way of starting a family that gets him into trouble. With all this talk of babies, Diego might be losing his saber-toothed edge, but a journey to save Sid may just turn the whole group into heroes. In addition to all that adventure, it wouldn’t be an Ice Age film if Scrat weren’t on a desperate hunt for an acorn, but he might get distracted by a shapely female squirrel.

-------------------------------------------

You watched the movies: Ice Age 1 and 2 before? I remembered that Manny, Diego and Sid are very funny while they are on their jounery! I like the character, Manny because he also acted like funny, stupid, brave and love to help his friends. :D I think that this movie "Ice Age 3" is friendly film that will make your children laugh. Wow! Dinosaurs also come into this movie?? I think that Ice Age is come after Dinosaurs Age because the dinosaurs already passed away in years before the ice age.. That is why they try to make some interesting about a part story about dinosaurs have been living in an underground cavern just under the ice!

There is a really crazy character, Weasel Buck! He are very funny, crazy and always love to hunt the dinosaurs than Sid! :P Maybe he will replace Sid? hehe He is with Manny,her wife, Diego and two stupids while they are looking for Sid. And other scene, Scrat the squirrel and a newfound love are beginning! They always fight over a nut..I love it! :D You better to watch this movie if you want to see what is a stupid squirrel doing with his newfound love!

Three years after Larry Daley is now head of Daley Devices, a company that he founded to manufacture his inventions. When he visit his old musuem, he finds that the American Museum of Natural History is closed for upgrades and renovations, and some of the museum pieces are being replaced by interactive holograms. The actual exhibits are moved to the Federal Archives at the Smithsonian Institution in Washington DC. On the last night, Larry meets the museum pieces such as Teddy Roosevelt, Rexy the Tyrannosaurus Skeleton, and Dexter the Capuchin Monkey (Crystal the Monkey) and finds out that several exhibits, including Teddy, Rexy, the Easter Island Head (Brad Garrett), and good Pharoah Ahkmenrah and his Tablet are not moving to The Smithsonian Institution - without the Tablet of Ahkmenrah, the other exhibits will no longer be animated. The next night, Larry gets a call from Jedediah (Owen Wilson), saying that Dexter stole the tablet last midnight and evil Pharaoh Kahmunrah, Ahkmenrah's older brother, is attacking them. Larry goes to Washington and visits the BIG museum in order to save Jedediah and his group!

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Night at the Museum 1 that i watched before so, it is really comedy movie. My sisters and I like this movie because it is very interesting story! Finally, the Night of the Museum 2 come out already. My sisters and I went to watch it again! :D

The overall movie content,storyboard and graphical effect was kinda entertaining! When the night come, the battle is start like a crazy war!...I started laughing since the movie started till it end...It show the interesting happening in the museum at night as well as the new things come out in the different museum, such as the art museum, space museum, and etc! All is one BIG MUSEUM at the Smithsonian Institution in Washington DC because an ancient Egyptian tablet that has the powered to bring things to life..That is why it is not easy for Security guard Larry Daley in order to rescue Jedediah and his group..

Wow, the things can move in the art drawing pictures!! Same for the flying rocketships, the space thing, a grouchy great octopus, a collection of Albert Einstein puppets, Varth Death, 1st president Washington, Abraham Lincoln and etc.. This is a complex story that was tons of historical references and charters from threw out history which is a kind of history lesson, which is cool for kids and adults! Finally, they can back to old museum..but wahh.. Larry got good idea to make the old museum re-open at night only and gain more visitors so, all the statue, mannequin will also move and answer the visitor's question! It is very interesting and humor story. :)

Final Fantasy XII

THE SUMMARY

Set within the land of Ivalice during an age when magic was commonplace and airships plied the skies, crowding out the heavens. At this time, magicite, a magic-rich mineral is commonly used in magic spells and in powering airship.

However, during this time, Ivalice is best by the pending war between the forces of Rozarria and Archadia. Seeking to strengthen its base of power, the great Archadian Empire had been invading and subjugating its neighboring kingdoms one by one. The small Kingdom of Dalmasca was one such kingdom.

The story follows Vaan - the young man living on the streets of Dalmasca's Royal City of Rabanastre, the Princess Ashe - the sole remaining heir to the Dalmascan throne who had been given up for missing, as well as Vaan's friend Penelo, the sky pirate Balthier, Balthier's partner Fran and many more on an adventure through Ivalice that traces the mysteries behind the Archadian Empire's invasion.

GAMEPLAY

Unlike the previous Final Fantasy game series, "Random Encounters" have been eliminated in this Final Fantasy XII. Instead of that, enemies are visible in the overworld before an engagement and the player opts to fight or avoid them in open combat. The player can navigate the surroundings in the overworld or in the city/ town for 360° view.

Besides that, the License Board is the ability system and each square on the board requires a certain amount of License Points to be activated, which allow a character to perform certain actions. The board is split into two parts; the upper part contains Magicks, Technick, Accessory and Augment licenses while the bottom part is filled mostly with Weapon and Armor licenses. All characters may obtain all licenses on the board; however, each Quickening and Esper license may only be activated by a single character.

Another new feature is the "gambit" system, which allows the player to program each character to perform certain commands in battle in response to specified conditions. Using gambits, thr combat can be controlled manually or programmed. All commands relate to the character itself, the character's allies or the enemies onscreen.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Arrghhh, what a long journey in this story! @.@ It took me about 3 months, I believe so. I read Wikia : Final Fantasy then I learnt that Final Fantasy XII has broken through record with the longest story among the series. -__- No wonder the journey and story always never end and it still continue from chapter to chapter. Playing this game is quite tiresome!

However, this game includes a very amazing graphics power gorgeous cut-scenes filled with sky-choking airships, huge vaguely futuristic yet nostalgic cities and stunning natural landscapes. And as beautiful as it look, it could make the player feel astonished and moved like you are in this game for real! Running, fighting and encountering with different creatures and races!

I am glad that "Random Encounters" is removed from this game. In previous game, when it comes to "Random Encounters", the screen often hang. -__- But this game is different, I just can attack the monsters directly on the overworld. It is easier and faster! =D When encounter with Boss, it will be a bit like "Random Encounters" but you still can move around on the battlefield.

In this game, many monsters and bosses are quite strong and powerful. I remember the longest period of fighting Boss is that with the hidden Esper, Zodiark! I hate Zodiark! Always game over every times. -__- So, I used cheatcode to maximumize all character's level and LP. I almost completed 95% of this game, when it comes near the chapter of Bahamut, I gave up! Haha... But now the disc is not avail to be played anymore. Hmm, if I have chance, I would play this game again. Hey Selina, when will you give me a copy of this game? Haha

Red Cliff 2

THE SUMMARY

Red Cliff, alternatively known as The Battle of Red Cliff, is a two-episode Chinese epic film based on the Battle of Red Cliffs and events during the Three Kingdoms period in Ancient China. The film is directed by John Woo and stars Tony Leung Chiu Wai, Takeshi Kaneshiro, Zhang Fengyi, Chang Chen, Hu Jun, Lin Chi-ling and Zhao Wei. It tells the story of 3 kingdoms and a battle at Red Cliffs. Cao Cao wants to rule all three kingdoms and has the largest army. His only motive is greed. He has put Liu Bei on the run and Liu Bei and Sun Quan for a truce to beat Cao Cao. They are still outnumbered, but have the love of their people, two very astute military strategists, and very loyal champion fighter generals on their side. When it continue to the Red Cliff 2 movie, Cao Cao decides to attack from the sea, he is lured into fighting with Zhao Wei and his alliance at the sea battle where he is defeated...

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

If you don't understand about the Red Cliff- part 2, you try to watch the part 1. Red Cliff is seriously very well produced and it really can compete with those Hollywood produced movies. In fact it may even be better than some… Directed by John Woo, you bet this is a good movie! Wow! This movie is about Chinese history, particularly in those days when the three kingdoms existed in China!


I like their action because it is an interesting historical drama with great action shots and intelligence of stratgery! For example, Zhuge Liang must think about how to get back 300 arrows in 3 days and they defeat Cao Cao by using the fire battle with Cao Cao's ships! I like the character, Zhuge Liang, the master tactician who was a farmer - a simply brilliant strategist who helped Zhao Wei and Liu Bie & his brothers because most of chinese people knew him as most brilliant scholar in the Three Kingdom history...I highly recommend you to catch this movie!

I surprised when this battle looks same like the sea battle which I played in the Dynasty Warriors game (GBA)!
