The Amazing Spider-Man 2

The Amazing Spider-Man 2 (released as The Amazing Spider-Man 2: Rise of the Electro in some market) is a very entertaining movie if watched in 3D, especially the fight scene between spidey and the Electro. I quite like it; but I will say that overall the movie is just not bad - with some entertaining fighting scene. However, what I don't like is that the fighting scenes seemingly too short given that there are three villains in the movie; Electro, Green Goblin and Rhino.






The movie started off with some sub-plots of Peter Parker's parents, before showing Spider-Man web swinging around the New York City before helping the police to catch a group of criminal before missing his girlfriend, Gwen Stacy's graduation speech, and just in time to attend his graduation. Having promised to have dinner with Gwen and her family, Peter Parker is still struggling with the conflict within himself as he is seeing Gwen's father around him whenever he is in his Spider-Man's suit and warn him on dragging his daughter with his decision; and Gwen and Peter ended up breaking up with each other; having so love each other.

Then Harry is brought to his dying father and he was told that he inherited a family disease which will lead him to death, but his father has done some research to save their life, and hopefully he can continue the research and to really find the cure for the family.  And with that Harry is introduced as the heir of Oscorp.


At the same time, one of the employee in Oscorp, Max Dillon was forced to work the extra hour to repair power plant and then met with a freak accident which turns him into Electro. Somewhere outside of the city, Peter Parker renewed friendship with Gwen Stacy before Electro make his first appearance and fight with Spider-Man for the first time - before he was finally captured.




Soon when the disease started to strike, Harry Osborne asked Peter Parker to get the Spider-Man's blood as it is the only thing which can save him; which Peter Parker finally agreed to talk to Spider-Man but Spider-Man refused to help Harry Osborne stating that his blood is not what Harry needed but he will figure it out eventually - of course, Harry not willingly to accept the fact that he is going to die soon.

Peter Parker then realized that his father might have the formula to save his friend, so he tries to figure out what his father left for him before he realized that his father was framed all the while, and that the formula only work on his blood and his line; while in desperation, Harry rescue Electro so that he can bring him back to Oscorp after Harry was expelled.

Electro tries to suck up all the power in the New York city and Spider-Man come to the rescue with Gwen and eventually Electro suck too much power until he blows up. Then Harry, now the Green  Goblin came and realized that Peter Parker is Spider-Man and that he refuses to save him, so he avenge by dropping Gwen from atop and killing her. Spider-Man captured Green Goblin but it was a big sacrifice for him until he decided to quit taking up responsibility which might hurt the people that he love.

In the meantime, Harry is still organizing research and crime behind the bar. Rhino is part of Oscorp creation and is destroying the city. Will Peter Parker change his decision and fight Rhino to save the city once again?

Mission Impossible 4: Ghost Protocol

Anyone who has already watched Mission Impossible 4: Ghost Protocol would have notice that Mission Impossible 4 is a little bit different from the previous three Mission Impossible(s). I am not sure why there are many critics on Tom Cruise acting, but to me, he is ok. I mean, I know a lot of times, they are saying that Mission Impossible is like talking about himself, but I really beg to differ. Mission Impossible is not really about Tom Cruise alone, I mean he is the leader, he do most of the dangerous work, but behind him is a group of capable secret agents who can support him in all the missions. Anyway, back to Mission Impossible 4: Ghost Protocol. The story started with a chase on a roof in one of a building in Budapest and the agent look so cool when he jumped down and look upwards to shoot the chasers.....but however, was later assassinated by a female assassin. Then we have Ethan Hunt break a prison from Russia with the help of IMF agents and proceed to accept a mission to infi...

Zirkzee's Late Heroics Ignite Manchester United's Premier League Campaign with Victory Over Fulham

Manchester United got their Premier League campaign off to a promising start with a dramatic late 1-0 victory over Fulham, thanks to debutant Joshua Zirkzee’s 87th-minute goal. The £36.5 million summer signing from Bologna stepped off the bench to deliver a moment of magic, securing three crucial points for Erik ten Hag’s side in front of a jubilant Old Trafford crowd. The relief was evident as Ten Hag celebrated the winner with both fists clenched, knowing how much the result meant after a challenging preseason. United struggled to convert their chances for most of the match, with Bruno Fernandes deployed as a false nine. Despite the pressure, it was Zirkzee who emerged as the hero, providing a much-needed spark and focal point in attack when introduced in the 61st minute. Ten Hag was quick to praise his new striker, saying, "It’s important for a striker to get off the mark quickly, and Zirkzee did exactly that. The win is satisfying, especially at the start of the season. We’re ...
