Average at its best.

There is something about the Twilight saga movies that makes it an "almost there but never quite there" kind of movies. For starters, it wasn't able to contain the hype and mystery that makes a series adaptation compelling in every sense, kinda like what the Harry Potter series have done for 10 long years. Can it be because the first movie was an epic failure in terms of production and over-all output or is it possible that its story just doesn't have what it takes? It now becomes a crisis figuring out what went wrong in this movie franchise. Is it the story itself or perhaps just the movie adaptations? Well, I guess it's both.
In the age of True Bloods and The Walking Deads where HOT, sexy, and fierce are being redefined, somehow the vampire and werewolf story this saga presents seems too bland. It's like a steak without salt and pepper, pasta without parmesan. It just feels so cliché, predictable, and unexciting; in short, overrated in epic proportions. You watch it because it's there or you've seen all the other instalments so might as well watch it too. Or you've read the book and just for the sake of.

Catch Me... I'm in Love (2011)
Predictable and out of this world yet still, "Catch Me I'm In Love" is one of the best feel good movies I've seen in recent years
Predictable and out of this world yet still, "Catch Me
I'm In Love" is one of the best feel good movies I've seen in recent years that will sensibly make you smile and twitch your heart in a good way.
The cinema was jam packed on its opening day; some people were even sitting in the carpeted stairs inside. Thankfully this movie didn't disappoint. The success of any romantic comedy can only be attributed to one thing: CHEMISTRY! And I am telling everyone this movie is oozing full of that irresistible chemistry between Gerald and Sarah.

An astonishingly powerful true to life story that metaphorically reminds us of what it means to live and survive. A true masterpiece no one should dare miss!
127 Hours is the story of Aron Ralston played by James Franco who in 2003, went on an adventure trip in the Robbers Roust Canyons in Utah without telling anyone of his plans. Unfortunately, he met an accident when an 800-pound boulder traps his right arm in the canyons. With just a few hiking stuffs with him, Aron knew it's impossible to be rescued by anyone, at least not until he's still alive and breathing. So with much courage, Aron knew he needed to save himself and after five days of being trapped, amputating his lower right arm, he magnificently extricated himself from the canyons and had a second chance in life.
Words are not enough to compliment a movie like 127 Hours which,CONTINUE READING AT http://gorgeousdave.blogspot.com/2011/02/127-hours.html
