Robots In Diguise

The long-awaited Transformers movie was indeed worth the wait! The action scenes and computer generated imagery were unbelievably great to watch and quite realistic. I'd really recommend watching it for anyone who used to be a fan of the animated series or even for someone who has never seen it before but enjoys sci-fi action films.

In brief, the story is about a robot race from a distant galaxy whose war has stepped onto the path of Planet Earth. The Autobots, led by Optimus Prime, and the Decepticons, led by Megatron, are looking for the All Spark... an object with the ability to generate robots and potentially destroy the human race.

With the help of the grandson of an Antarctic explorer and the US Air Force, the Autobots fight to protect Earth and take down the Decepticons who have suddenly invaded.

The Deathly Hallows

Ok, so if you've still not read the latest and final book in the Harry Potter series I'd stop reading this post right now - It will spoil it for you!

What an unbelievable ending to the story. I don't think anyone would have guessed any of the stuff about Snape. Obviously, we knew there was a reason why Dumbledore trusted him but of all of the possible explanations!

There was quite a lot to take in from the whole Horcruxes and Hallows thing but it still made for a great ending. Who would have thought Harry was a Horcrux? The whole mission to destroy them seemed impossible, even as the story unfolded it seemed less likely that they could defeat Voldemort. But as all good stories go, there is a twist and a turn for good.

Having also seen the Order of the Phoenix at the cinema recently I can only imagine how good the next two films will be. How will they manage to keep the ratings down to 12A?? The Battle of Hogwarts and, in particular, the final showdown between Harry and Voldemorte will be something to look forward to. It's all over, phew!

The Order Of The Phoenix

Watched it last night at the Odeon in iMax. It even had about 20 minutes of 3D at the end with the fight scenes at the Ministry of Magic. Really enjoyed it.

He-who-must-not-be-named is truly back in style although the film does focus mostly on Harry's development. I actually do prefer the movie of The Goblet of Fire, but this is still an enjoyable watch nonetheless, and an important installment in unravelling this seven story plot. What do they call that anyway, its no trilogy!

Bring on The Deathly Hallows... 21st July!!!!
