Transformers

Movies

Transformers. I’ve never swore that much inside the cinema! It is that effing awesome! Top notch computer graphics! It is just ridiculously impeccable. The detail that went through on all of their transformations just left me in awe. The composition of CG and live action is so good; it really looks like they are there [...]

Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer

Nothing new, no gripping plot, nor interesting twists or turns.
And I [...]

Note: Always turn off “USB Internet” function on phone when plugging it to the computer (if you have no plans on using it for the sole purpose of 3G surfing). It just connects to the net through the phone [...]
