Well, first start with the character. Rachel Weisz is not in the third franchise. Why? she have to take care of her kids. She do not want to do anything with mummy but become a mommy. Big disappointment. We expect the Envy and O'Connel are the same. However, they are not. O'Connel is still there, jump around and be a hero but where is sexy Envy? Where is an lovely eyesight they exchange? Where is the love? Well, None. Maria Bello is on. she is not bad actually, but we get used to the look of Envy. She pretty good in acting a mommy of 21 years old son but not an adventurous Envy. I found the big twist in this movie and it make me a little disppointed. Jonathan is my favourite character, he act well and do a good job as previous part. Nevertheless, new Alex is terrible. We cant see the link between him and his father. He act like he is not O'connel's son but a friend. we do think there is a big room for him to improve.
Second, The effect is pretty good but not new. There is no effect that impress us. We do expect that in 2008 it should be something better. Instead of impress at CGI, we pick up something else. Han emperor transfrom become a 3 head dragon. WHAT? it's china and we do know that chinese dragon is totally different with english dragon. Chinese dragon has 4 legs and long shape and 1 head. 3 heads dragon is english version. Why on earth the director but the english dragon on? It is not make sense. With Jet Li in this movie, we expect some chinese kung fu mix in but what we got? a slow sword fight and take turn boxing. These things should be upgraded to make the movie more engage.
Third, the storyline is normal. We do not expect any great storyline in this movie. So, with us, it's entertain. That's good enough for us to spend couple of hours to relax in the weekend.
Do we suggest this movie? Well, if you are run out of things to do or movies to watch in weekend, this would be a choice. Even with some holes and gaps, it is still a entertainment piece for you.
