The Wolverine (2013)

Extremely Different from The Previous X-Men Movies

Stars   :  Hugh Jackman, Will Yun Lee, Tao Okamoto, Rila Fukushima, Hiroyuki Sanada, Svetlana Khodchenkova, Hal Yamanouchi 

Score  :  7.0 / 10

 

2013, seems to be the year of superhero movie. There are four movies were released in 2013, Man of Steel, Iron Man 3, The Wolverine and which is still being aired in cinema, Thor 2. I am actually not a big fan of superhero movie, I only love X-Men. I never miss all X-Men movies, started from X-Men (2000) to X-Men First Class (2011). There are some reasons why I love X-Men. The first, there are a lot of super power figures (mutants) in X-Men, though the central figure is still on Wolverine. The second, they have a unique super power from the others.

The Love Story of Dr. Gru

Stars   :  Steve Carell, Kristen Wiig, Benjamin Bratt
Score  :  7.2 / 10

 

It is certainly that almost all movie lovers will not miss Despicable Me 2. Some of them have to wait longer before the film was released. I actually included that missed out because when this movie was released, I've never watched Despicable Me 1. So I chose to watch it first and watched Despicable Me 2 just a few days ago. It is better late than never at all. I just tried to entertain myself :). You can read the review of Despicable Me 1 here : http://www.reviewcinema.com/2013/08/despicable-me-2010.html. Back to Despicable Me 2, the film still comes with the same main character, such as Dr. Gru (Steve Carell), three adopted children (Margo, Edith and Agnez), Dr. Nefario (Russell Brand) and of course the most adorable, Minion.
