"Alpha and Omega" and "Due Date" Reviews!

Hey ya'll

Having a small trip up to Nottingham and watched 2 movies with Shin. So I'll write a short review for each!

First up:
Whoop whoop! Animation about talking wolves! Sounds exciting? No? Well you're probably right, lol.

The story is basically two childhood friends, Kate and Humphrey got separated and grew up with different livestyles. They meet again when they're older and Kate's become a top Alpha while Humphrey stayed at the bottom of the social order as an Omega. After one event where park rangers tranquilised them and sent them off to another park, they make their way back home to bring peace to their pack!

I saw this in 3D and there are some bits that are awesome, like roller coaster ride-like scenes and 3D made it really immersive~ The story is quite predictable at times, and there's nothing much other than pretty graphics and quite funny scenes at times. Oh there was a very.... disturbing scene where they started singing and dancing.... Won't reveal much other than that but it was very awkward.

Overall I'll give this movie a 3/5. Worth a watch when you want a light hearted movie ;)


Next off is,
Robert Downey Jr!!!!!!! I became a fan of his after the first Iron Man and probably seen a lot of his movies since then. His sarcastic look when he's mouthing off is brilliant!

Anyways, Due Date synopsis: Peter (Robert Downey Jr.) was going home to LA to see his wife and hoped to be there for the birth of his child when a series of events after meeting Ethan (Zach Galifianakis) and is forced to go on a road trip with him all the way home. On the way they are faced with situations with hilarious outcomes.

My two cents of this movie is that it was from the director of The Hangover. Now if you haven't watched that movie, then you should because that one is extremely funny! Anyhoo, this movie will keep you laughing almost throughout the movie. As all funny things go, it's not funny once you've heard it twice so just go watch the movie!

For this I rate 4/5. Definitely worth a watch with friends!


Well that's that for now. Will update more at a later time!
