I still remember the previous time when I've watched 2 movies in a day. It was the hilarious YES MAN! followed by the super boring Twilight. And that was like more than a year ago? At last, another chance! This time IT WAS SO MUCH BETTER!



The first movie was Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thief! A new fantasy movie based on the books, and it was really great! The entire story revolves around Percy Jackson, who is Poseidon, the greek god of the seas' son. The 5 books were all about ancient greek mythology, the 12 greek gods and goddesses, and how they can have sex with mortals and have babies who have unique powers when they grow up. It's really super cool, the mixture of myth and reality into this fantasy.

This movie is the first of the series of books. It shows Percy Jackson, a teenager with problems with english, but gradually finding out it's because he's part god part human, he reads everything in Greek. He is able to hold his breath in the water for really long, use water as his powers to attack and heal because he's actually the son of the Greek god, Poseidon. And there are many other people out there who are like him, children of gods and goddesses. Because Zeus thinks that he stole the powerful lightning bolt, he headed out on an adventure to explain to Zeus, but with many obstacles in front of him and his fellow comrades (daughter of Athena as well as a half man- half goat?), he had to overcome all of them before reaching the truth.

The entire movie wasn't a letdown, with humour as well as action! Lots of action! Definitely a should-watch when thinking of a movie.

Storyline: 8.5/10
Comments: Watch It! And wait for the sequels. Can't wait? Get the books then!

So, after that...



VALENTINE'S DAY! HAVE BEEN WANTING TO WATCH THIS SINCE LONG AGO! Yes, the reason's because of Taylor Swift okay? So what? I'm also a fan of many of the other stars, like Anne Hathaway and Bradley Cooper. This movie is really really sweet! For couples, definitely a snug and cuddle kind of movie. For singles, a "Fuck, I need a partner!" will be all you're thinking after the end.

It actually just shows how most people celebrates their version of Valentine's Day, big or small, happy or sad. And, there's quite a lot of shocking scenes that I didn't anticipate like Bradley Cooper and Eric Dane turned out to be a couple even though I thought he's going to end up with Julia Roberts. But still, very sweet! Love how Taylor Swift acted as a bimbo in the show, and those crazy loser dance moves, and the constant making out with Lautner. But really, the show is really really super sweet. Although slow-paced but you can hear "awwwww" quite frequently, because it's really "awwww-ish".

Storyline: 9/10
Comments: So many famous stars, $6 isn't a big deal! And with Taylor Swift, DON'T WASTE TIME! GO WATCH IT! AND LISTEN TO HER SING AFTER THAT! =D
