Avengers: Endgame (2019) Movie Review

Hey, Maders! The next movie I’d like to discuss is Avengers: Endgame. This is the last movie about Avengers although fans still expect for the next journey. If you haven’t watched the early Avengers movies like Captain America or Iron Man, probably you won’t understand this one.

Okay, I will think that you’ve watched all Avengers movies :’) so, the main enemy here is Thanos. He has used infinity stones and destroyed a half population on earth. After doing it, Thanos lives alone on a planet and he even cooks his own meal. I feel surprised to know that Thanos is planting something then harvesting. Hahaha. A ‘farmer’ villain.

Next, this Endgame has a new superhero, Captain Marvel, that helps the Avengers to get Thanos. Thanos reveals that the infinity stones are gone. Finally Thor kills Thanos by cutting his head. In short, the Avengers find a time machine and they try to collect the infinity stones from different period before Thanos knows it.

Well, now I will talk about some strange facts but interesting. The Avengers can breathe easily in space. Some of them are alien, yes, but others are human. They have lung for oxygen but when they visit another planet, they just breathe normally. Secondly, Thor becomes fat! You won’t see a muscular Thor but here you’ll see a drunk man with big belly. I miss the handsome and well-built Thor :’(

Yups, I was speaking about time machine (created by Tony Stark). This machine helps Captain America to go back to his past and meet Peggy, his true love. In the end of this movie, Captain America has a job to return the infinity stones to their times. After that, Steve Rogers is dancing with Peggy in a house, of course with a little kiss. Hahaha. So sweet! Eventually we know the ending of the Captain America’s love story.

Avengers Endgame has high rating from various reviewer. Personally I give this movie score 9.5 :’) many characters in Marvel Universe show up here. The battle to fight Thanos and his army (ugly) aliens is incredible. Well, that’s all for now. Thanks for reading. Have a good day, Maders!

Shazam (2019) Movie Review

Hello, Maders! I watched Shazam in the beginning of April but I wrote this review in the middle of May. Forgive me :’) Writing means thinking and I wasn’t having mood for it a few weeks ago. Now I’d like to share my review towards this superhero movie.

Shazam belongs to DC Comics, not Marvel Universe. I heard that Shazam is the most powerful hero among others. However, I still put Superman above all. I love Clark Kent! Yeah! But actually they have almost the same posture and power, such as flying, laser, bullet immunity, and etc.

The symbol of Shazam is lightning on his chest. It produces electricity and even Shazam helps people to charge their phones automatically by pointing his finger. One of the phones exploded though. Hahaha.

This movie reveals the origin of Shazam and how he gets the power from an old man in a random cave. Billy, an ordinary teenager, defends his lame brother and it proves that Billy has a good heart. In short, he gets power to be Shazam and turns into a muscular man (adult). By saying the word “Shazam!”, he can return to be the ordinary Billy.

This movie is awesome, funny, and touching. The characters has jokes and the scenes are extraordinary. Shazam may make you cry because Billy has tried to find his mom but when he meets her, she doesn’t want him. A true family is the people who raise and stand by you although there is no blood relation. Well, that’s the moral value of the story.

My favorite part is when Shazam tries everything to know his power. You know, he’s a new hero and he has no idea what he can do. He’s not used to be an adult because he has ‘kid’ mind. With the help from Fredy (his brother), Billy a.k.a Shazam does many experiments to find out the power.

In the end of this movie, THERE IS SUPERMAN IN A GLANCE! I can’t see Superman’s face but he’s there with Shazam. OMG! Surely there will be sequel for Shazam and I really hope Superman will join him. In conclusion, Shazam is very recommended to watch. I give this movie 8.5 for the score. Fyi, the boy that plays as Billy is handsome. Hahaha. Okay, that’s all. See you, Maders!

Captain Marvel 2019 Movie Review

Hello, Maders! Give me a shout for those who love Marvel Universe…yeay! Honestly I love both DC Comics and Marvel. This time I’ll talk about Captain Marvel at cinema.

Firstly I read the word “captain” and thought it might refer to a man like Captain America, but I was wrong. Captain Marvel here is a woman having supernatural power because of the explosion. She’s supposed to be dead after flying a jet plane. Surprisingly she’s still alive although losing her memory, only flashes she remembers.

The characters that aren’t coming from the earth look like The Guardians of Galaxy’s team. By the way, our earth is called C-53 (if I’m not mistaken) and one of the alien states it as shit-hole. Wicked! :v

There are funny moments and conversation in this movie. One of my favorite is when Agent Fury (S.H.I.E.L.D) tries to open a door using fake fingerprint but Vers (the nickname of Captain Marvel) does nothing. On the second door, Agent Fury is about to attach the fake fingerprint again but Vers uses her power of fire to destroy the keyhole.

My favorite dialogue is this:

A: “Hey, you never laugh.”

B: “I laugh…on the inside.”

He means he keeps his laugh, so nobody knows he’s laughing. What?! Hahaha you should see his face while saying this statement, flat.

The conflict is about a mission given to Vers: Skrull must be killed. There’s a plot twist here. The good is actually bad, and the bad is good. Confused? No, you won’t if you watch the movie. “Don’t trust anyone” is the clue.

The technology is extraordinary. You can see the space and their habitat on another planet. Captain Marvel doesn’t need oxygen while she’s flying at the sky. Oh yes, I almost forget that there is a special cat named “goose”. Its real name is Flarken and it has amazing power from its mouth. Physically a cat but its mouth sometimes shows huge  tentacles like a squid and eat the enemy. Goose hides the Tesseract inside its body.

Finally I’ve found out why Agent Fury wears an eye patch like a pirate. His left eye is scratched by Goose unintentionally when he plays with the cat. Other S.H.I.E.L.D agents believe his eye is damaged because Agent Fury doesn’t give the Tesseract to the bad alien.

Marvel used to be from the word “Mar-Vell”, the name of a scientist creating the core of Tesseract. If you watch Marvel movies, you will understand the basic story. All is connected. Well, I give score for Captain Marvel 8.5 out of 10. Very recommended to watch. See you, Maders!

Alita: Battle Angel Movie Review

Hi, Maders! Last Saturday, I watched Alita: Battle Angle with Regina. Usually, I watch movies on weekdays to get cheaper price. Okay, I was thinking to watch Lego Movie 2 but it’s not being played anymore at Transmart, so I chose Alita instead. From one to ten, I give it 9.

The story is about a cyborg girl (only head till shoulder) found by dr.Ido from the scratch, a place where metal garbage being thrown. He gave the cyborg body and named it Alita, just like his dead daughter. Alita lost her memory, so she accepted her new name happily.

In the past, the daughter of dr.Ido was paralyzed. Then, an evil cyborg stole medicine from dr.Ido’s house and killed his daughter. Since then, dr.Ido registered himself as Hunter-Warrior (bounty hunter for evil cyborgs).

Alita met a man named Hugo and they fell in love. This is the love story part and I love it. Hugo told Alita about his dream to go to Zalem (the flying world above). Alita hesitated herself to love Hugo because she is a cyborg. In fact, it didn’t matter for Hugo.

The conflict here is when Alita found out that Hugo’s job is to catch cyborgs and take their body parts. Alita was also betrayed when she played motor ball because there was a price for her head.

You may watch the movie to know the ending. I cried once when I watched Alita and Hugo’s miserable moment. My favorite character is actually Zapan, a cyborg that belongs to Hunter Warrior. I also admire the visual effect of this movie. It’s so perfect. You know, the hardest part of making a movie is editing section. The music is good as well.

FYI, there will be the sequel of Alita: Battle Angel because the number one enemy hasn’t been defeated. His name is Nova, living above in Zalem. He controls cyborgs and many things. Alita hasn’t gone up to find him yet. Alita is called Battle Angel because she has face like angel but her body is to battle. And if you love robots like Transformers, I think you love Alita. I can’t wait for the next movie! See you, Maders!
