Last weekend, as usual, my routine - cleaning, shopping for daily stuff, and gym. But, I did see couple of summer movies, that I have wanted to see for a while. Luckily both movies didn't disappoint me at all, especially Indiana Jones.
So, after (I think) 2 years, Narnia is back and brought us a new prince, named Caspian. I have to say, if my memory serves me right, I wasn't really that into the first Chronicle of Narnia. I guess, the main reason is... not much actions, but a lot of talking (maybe I am wrong). But, after seeing the trailer of Prince Caspian in the subway, I do believe this time there will be more actions, and I am right. Yes I am a very shallow-only-crave-for-action-flicks kinda guy. I mean it is for summer movie, so it is supposed to be entertaining. Anyway, these four kids were somehow "teleported" back to the world of Narnia in the subway station (not through the wardrobe this time). And, the world of Narnia has somehow gone through hundred years of changes (even though in the real world it was only one year). Apparently, the human race somehow has ruined the "eco-system" of the world with their selfishness and egomaniac behavior, and made a lot of beings in Narnia extinct. Sounds familiar, isn't it? Very educative I have to say. So, the four kids, with the new prince were going to bring the old Narnia back by fighting the evil human race. And, of course they succeeded at the end (hey, it is a Disney movie!). I have to give it 8 out of 10 for this movie. One thing I don't very understand is that, these kids sure can fight! Is it because they had some super special power when they were in the Narnia world?
After (I guess again) 15 years from the last one, which I really love especially the interaction between Sean Connery and Harrison Ford as father and son, respectively, Henry Jones Jr. is back. And, well, he sure got old (seriously, Harrison Ford is in his 60s!). But, luckily the old Jones doesn't really ruin the movie. In fact, it has brought his more humane side into the movie. Sadly, Sean is not in the movie (oh, how much I like to see the humorous interaction between him and Harrison). Apparently, he is "dead" in the movie, which makes the whole movie somehow sad. But, then it has brought a new blood, a (*spoiler*) new Jones (which was only revealed at the end of the movie). Oh, this time it is not about diamond, not about the legendary ark, or the mythical cup, but a crystal skull. Hey, there is a big big story, of which (hint hint) what makes Steven Spielberg famous behind that skull. Not to spoil you more, but I kinda feel warm when I see the ending... I mean I always like Steven Spielberg, and he cleverly blend his famous story feature in the movie. Anyway, I will give 9 out of 10 for this movie. Oh, the sound effects such as punching a man's face, sure bring back memory of the old movies in the series. You will see what I mean when you see this movie.
