Transformers: Dark of the Moon

Transformers: Dark of the Moon

Rating: It was amazing!



I will admit that I watched this movie a month or two ago, but this movie, especially this movie, still plays vividly in my mind. This movie is one of the best movies I had seen so far. It alters historical concepts and incorporates it into the movie, making it seen more realistic. For example, it talks about how the Apollo 11 landed on the moon to investigate Autobots' spaceship.

From the beginning to the end, the movie is filled with actions and surprises. Anyone who enjoy Transformer 1 will definitely enjoy this one.

For those Megan Fox fans, yea I am sorry; she got replaced by another actress. I heard many people that said that the new actress is very bad at acting. In my opinion, she did a decent job. But of course, not as good as Megan Fox.

Cars 2

In my opinion, Car 2 definitely lived up to its expectation. It is funny, unique, and a lot more interesting than Car 1. Car 2, instead of focusing on Lighting McQueen, it focuses on Mater, McQueen's friend. Even though the story is a bit predictable and too violent for its G rated status, I think that its various comedic scenes helped to make it up. For parents that have kids that are 7 years or younger, it probably will be best not to let them see this movie. The movie contains explosions, gunfire, torture scenes, and kidnappings. It will be a better James Bond sequel than a Car sequel. The story is also very predictable. Basically, Mater starts out low and then rises to the top. That's it. But as I had mentioned before, the movie is pretty funny.

Here comes the debut of the ultimate collaborator, Nicki Minaj! She has collaborated with numerous musicians (especially rappers) before releasing her first album, Pink Friday. She is a female rapper and in various interviews shows that she is a pretty good influence on other women. She has made history with being the first female rapper to top the Billboard Hot 100. And along with that, her sense of style are as flamboyant as that of Lady Gaga.

Pink Friday is filled with catchy songs and the top musicians Minaj collaborates with makes the songs even better. I liked "Check it Out" featuring will.i.am because of the dance-worthy beat the song has. I also like "Super Bass" because it can relate to many people about their first crush. "Moment 4 Life" is one of Nicki's better songs and with Drake in it, the song is amazing as they rap about their dreams and their fame. The song "Fly" sounds like a ballad and a rap song clashing together. Also, with Rihanna's stunning vocals during the chorus plus the meaning of the chorus equals amazement. "Right Thru Me" is one of her more emotional songs. "Your Love" is okay, I read the lyrics to the song, I really do not have much to say about it.

I very much like the variety of the kinds of songs Minaj has on her album along with the collaborators she has featured. With that, her album is therefore worth checking out.

Femme Fatale

Femme Fatale

Britney Spears does it again with her 7th album, "Femme Fatale", and she never fails to deliver songs with catchy tunes. In this album, Britney proves that she's still got that edge in the music industry after over 10 years. She may have stumbled in the middle of her career, but she still comes back stronger than ever.

Because of the lyrics to "Hold it Against Me", I didn't really like the song. I really liked "Till the World Ends" because it has a beat catchy enough to make me want to dance and sing along. The downside to the song is that it will get stuck in your head for a pretty long time. "I Wanna Go" is another one of Britney's songs that are catchy and will also get stuck in your head for a great deal of time. "I Wanna Go" has an amazing catchy beat that will probably played at parties and has been remixed countless times (along with "Till the World Ends"). "Big Fat Bass", another one of her songs on this album, I believe will probably be her next single and it is amazingly catchy. Plus, Britney's collaboration with Will.i.am makes the song even better.

This therefore proves to show that Britney Spears has still got it! Anyways, check out this album.

Beyonce never fails to deliver great music as she does it again with her fourth album, 4. Her voice is still as spectacular as always.

In this album particularly, I find the songs in this album more emotional, especially in "1+1" and "Best Thing I Never Had". "Love on Top" had a very catchy tune and is one of the few songs I listened to very frequently. "Run the World (Girls)" has a very good message about girls running the world and does a good job advocating powerful women, and it does seems that Beyonce is ruling the world with her powerful voice in that song.

Therefore, check Beyonce's latest album out and enjoy!
