Movie Review : Kungfu Panda


OMG!!I got a seat so close to the screen (4th from bottom),I couldn’t catch up all the subtitles even though I understand what they said in the movie but still……

Anyway you must see this movie. This movie despite so funny,the graphic is flawless and the moral story is very good for everybody especially for the children.

Po the fat Panda (Jack Black) has been dreaming all his life to become kungfu warrior and he’s big fan of Furious Five (5 students of Master Shifu consist of : Tigress,Monkey,Mantis,Viper,Crane) although in reality he’s just a son of a noddle shop owner. His father wants him to continue the family business even though Po doesn’t feel like it.

Meanwhile,Oogway (the tortoise master) has a bad feeling that the evil Tai Lung might escape from prison and run havoc among the Valley of Peace. That’s when he makes a decision to choose a Dragon Warrior to beat Tai Lung.

When the festival to find a dragon warrior arrives,Po immediately go and climbing his way up the stairs to the dojo to see the ceremony. Too bad he’s fat and too late to arrive as the door closed in front of his face and the only way he can see what’s going on inside is through the hole in the wall and the door but too bad either someone hinders his sight or the hole suddenly closed. He has no other option but to make a chair of fireworks in order to enter the dojo through the air. After he lands inside the dojo,Master Oogway chooses him as the Dragon Warrior and immediately every jaw drop to the floor because of that shocking decision, and despite constant pleas from Master Shifu about that decision,Master Oogway still stands by his decision.

Could Po learn the kungfu he needs to defeat Tai Lung??
Could the Furious Five accept the decision made by Master Oogway??
Would Master Shifu teach kungfu to Po??
How come Tai Lung could escape from that full defense prison??

You need and have to see this movie to find all the answers,what I like about this movie is the moral story that:
- You can achieve your dreams no matter how crazy the dream is.
- You have to believe in yourself
- You shouldn’t worry about the future and lament about the past but instead you must be grateful for the present moment and give it the best you can
- Looks can be deceiving

Album Review : Jesse McCartney "Departure"



1. Leavin’ (8/10) : I love “Beautiful Soul” way more than this song but this song is definitely one of the best from this album or if not the best,it’s explain why this song peaked at #10 on Billboard Hot 100.
2. It’s Over (7/10) : this break-up song which probably will become his 2nd single from this album has a catchy tunes on the chorus although it’s pretty bland on the verse.
3. Rock You Feat. Sean Garrett (4/10) : I can’t stand the rap in this flirty song,it’s pretty much a heavily R&B/hip-hop influenced song ,although I like the occasional female background vocal in this song.
4. How Do You Sleep (8/10) : I love this song,it’s a song about the way he's still longing for his girlfriend and still can’t forget her,the combination of electro mixing and everything is pretty good.
5. Into Ya (1/10) : it’s one of the worst song in this album,it’s almost tuneless and focused too much on the vulgarity of the lyric. I’m sure a hardcore fan of Jesse might be shocked hearing the lyric of this song.
6. Makeup (2/10) : the lyric of this song compliment the natural beauty of girls although he should’ve done a major makeup on the melody of the song because it’s crap.
7. My Baby (5/10) : a song about hoping to date a hot lady but too bad the melody is very mediocre.
8. Told You So (6/10) : I think everybody might've guessed what the story exactly in this song. Yep,you’re right. His girlfriend dumped him and regretted that decision because his new boyfriend is worse than Jesse. I’m afraid this song is a little bit verging on forgettable.
9. Relapse (7/10) : it’s pretty much has the same storyline as “How Do You Sleep” but this one is from the singer’s perspective. Love the chorus, hate the rest.
10. Runnin’ (5/10) : it’s not that he’s afraid of the commitment but something bothers him and makes him wanna run from the relationship,the melody of this song reminds me of Mario “Let Me Love You”.
11. Freaky (6,5/10) : it’s a club song with a short lyric in it,I heard some Steve Brown’s style on the background vocal in this song.
12. Not Your Enemy (8/10) : if you’re searching for a song that reminds you to Jesse’s previous albums,this is the song although it’s a ballad with great violin sound and fantastic vocal from Jesse and the medieval aura in this song makes this song a great soundtrack for movies.

Bonus Tracks (Asian Edition):
13. Bleeding Love (7/10) : I’m not a fan of Leona Lewis’ song although it’s pretty catchy because of constant airing on music channel. Jesse’s original rendition of this song (he wrote this song) falls short of Leona Lewis version because her vocal is way in different league than him and the melody in this song is pretty repetitive especially in the keyboard section.

Overall : this album completely shocks me because it’s major shift from Jesse’s musical history and in this album you get to hear a lot of electro/R&B/Hip-hop influence in almost every song because the producers of this album has been producing many great R&B/hip hop songs. Is it worth it to buy it?? Yes,if you love R&B/hip-hop but think again if you’re a pop music fan like me,many of the songs in this album are not my cup of tea.
If you interested in buying Jesse McCartney's albums,please do so by clicking the link in the right side of this blog (below the chatbox) and by doing so,you'll support my blog. Thank you so much.
