last broken promise

yes this is an update of my life.

i rarely watch movies in cinemas. even if i do, i usually watch around once per month. so this month is one of those super rare months where i actually watch two movies over the span of 31 days. shall review a little on the both of them.

the first movie i watched this month was "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them". i am a small fan of the Harry Potter universe so my review might be slightly bias. overall, the movie is a really good one. personally, i did not read the book so i had to strain my ears and pay close attention to details. i felt that the introduction of the movie could have been better.. you know those newspaper clippings and short scene highlighting the great villain. otherwise, the plot is good with nice humour in between. little easter eggs here and there. if i had the chance, i would probably watch it again. definitely worth watching.

the next movie i watched was "Assassin's Creed". i have never ever played the game before so i went in to watch almost clueless about the plot. i felt that the storyline's good though there are quite a few parts where the pace was too slow or awkward. action wise i think this movie managed to entertain me with the fight scenes and cool actions or stunts. like i said, i never played the game before, so i am not sure how good the adaption is but for a first-timer to this, i would say i am impressed by the story.

moving on, i have to break one last promise of 2016. kind of said i would post my journal of Taiwan trip before 2017 hits us but i guess i shall post first thing in 2017. don't want to rush through it and what not. currently busy with planning timetable and bidding. those same old shit again. until next time then, cheers.
