Recently, I went out with Jes, Zie, Pali and there’s Mila and Tengku too for movie rally and makan2. We watched Law Abiding Citizen and Jennifer’s Body. Both are 18PL. For my own preferences, I liked Law Abiding Citizen rather than Jennifer’s body movie. Ok, it was my idea to watch Jennifer’s body. Haha. So, here’s the review based on my own interpretation. XD~
Law Abiding Citizen
This movie starts with a family was killed violently by Darby (one of the bad guys name) and only the dad survived. The main actor was Gerald Butler and he acts as Clyde. Clyde wants revenge for her killed wife and daughter and according to the US law system, as Darby testifies against his accomplice, he will only be jailed for 3 – 6 years and his accomplice will end up being sentence to death after 10 years. Clyde unhappy with the punishment by Nick, the district attorney in charge plans to bring about his own justice. After 10 years, he strike back by killing Darby slowly and by using terrifying means. He then kills the person involved in the decision making, the judge, his lawyer, and Nick’s colleagues in order to teach Nick a lesson that he should not make a deal with a murderer. Nick is a person who follows strictly by the rules of thumb and this create loopholes to the law system as crime convict can be freed easily. Nick consulted many people as Clyde was a genius and found out that Clyde’s bought properties connecting to every cell in the jail. He wants to be prison on purpose and create terror among people in the city and this gives stress to Nick. Once Nick reads Clyde’s move, he bring along the last bomb in Clyde’s prison cell and Clyde died in the explosion when he activate the bomb in which he taught to killed higher authority people in security. Phrase I like in the movie was when Nick told Clyde that “It’s not what you know, it’s what you can proof in court”.
Jennifer’s body
Ok, if people were to ask if Megan Fox was hot in the movie, I would answer “Yep, she is.” But the storyline was ‘so, so’ for me. The story starts by showing Needy in ‘hospital for insane people’ or Hospital Sakit Jiwa. Jen and Needy were BFF until they went to a Low Shoulder band concert in Melody Lane (located at a place named Devil’s Kettle) and something happens. Jen (Megan Fox) was drunk at the time as she follows the Low Shoulder band and she was sacrificed to devils as the band wanted to obtained wealth and popularity using demon’s power. The only thing that the band didn’t know was Jen was no longer a virgin and thus, the demon possesses Jen’s body. In order to survive and stay pretty, Jen needs to feed on humans and she attacks boys. Needy knowing something wrong with Jen made a research and found out that in order to kill the demon; she needs to stab the demon’s heart when she’s hungry. Needy attacked Jen when Jen kills her boyfriend, Chip and manage to kill Jen and the demon. Needy was placed inside the care of other people until she force herself out and kills the members of the Low Shoulder band. The killing was scary and when Megan Fox turns as Hell or the demon, it was a bit scary. =P
