The Impossible - 8 / 10 - Made me want to man-cry a couple times, better than I expected.

Rush Hour - 7.5 / 10 - Good old formulaic action comedy

Rush Hour 2 - 7.5 / 10 - Just as good

Rush Hour 3 - 6 / 10 - Not nearly as good as the first two.

Edit: Forgot one

I give it a year - 8 / 10 - I laughed, a lot. pretty interesting chick flick if you have to see one.

The Life of Pi

8/10

One of the best cinematography i've ever seen. Such a beautiful movie. A really nice story beautifully told. A must see if you like movies (people with atheism as a religion might not like/understand the ending tough).

The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey

7.5/10

Nothing unexpected here if you have already read the book and seen lotr movies by Jackson. The magic of the middle earth recreation by Jackson might not be as powerful as it was for lotr but it's still a nice movie for the fans of the Tolkien books (like me). The movie is something like 2 hours and 40 minutes long and i did not look at my watch once. Usually this is a good thing ;) recommended if you liked lotr movies and liked the book.

Chernobyl Diaries

5.5/10

I can't fault the director for trying to do something with a low budget. But trying aint enough in this case (not even close to be). The atrocious script did not help him tough. The beginning of the movie is actually sort of nice. Nothing special but still totally watchable. But the end is stupid. Does the soviet union type of jokes still work ? The ending was way too easy and did not challenge the viewer. Acting was poor. Script was poor. It was basically a lower quality The Descent set in Chernobyl. The special effects (or lack of) and the recreation of Chernobyl was okay considering the low budget of the movie. No excuse for the bad acting and bad script tough. Movies like The Descent, Eden Lake, The Hills Have Eyes or High Tension are far superior.

    • ASUS ROG Falchion Ace 75 HE keyboard is 27% off on Amazon

      By Ivan Jenic · Posted

      ASUS ROG Falchion Ace 75 HE keyboard is 27% off on Amazon by Ivan Jenic The ASUS ROG Falchion Ace 75 HE is currently $159.99 on Amazon, down from $219.99. That's 27% off and $60 saved on a keyboard that combines retro and modern design, while being one of the most responsive and adaptable 75% boards available right now (purchase link down below). The ROG Falchion Ace comes with the HFX V2X magnetic switches that allow you to set actuation anywhere between 0.1mm and 3.5mm with 0.01mm fine-tuning steps. It also comes with Rapid Trigger, a feature that resets the key the moment you release it rather than waiting for a fixed reset point, which makes a noticeable difference in fast-paced games. And finally, an 8,000Hz polling rate should make the response time feel instant. The build quality is decent, with dense plastic and powder-coated aluminum, which is expected from a keyboard at this price point. There’s also the onboard adjustment wheel, which lets you tweak actuation and Rapid Trigger sensitivity without opening any software. For competitive gaming, the ROG Falchion Ace is hard to beat at this price. And those who appreciate old-school hardware, especially those white keyboards we’ve all grown up with, will likely also appreciate the looks of this keyboard. A carry case is included.
