Category: Movies

Hohoho another fantasy movie like LOTR and Harry Potter.

I just came back from watching the Golden Compass. If you have no clue what kind of movie it is, the movie is a fantasy flick like LOTR and Harry Potter. The reasons are the movie is an adaptation of a book, a teenager as the protagonist, Ian Mckellen also involved and dum dum dum – has a sequel! Yes, that is what I think because the story in the movie does not really end. Of course, a movie from a book can’t really cover everything from a fiction book in less than 2 hours.

The main reason I decided to watch the movie is because of Nicole Kidman. I heard form the news that Nicole is acting as a evil character in this movie. I am curious about her character. From the movie, I think she does a decent job but lacks actions. Oh yes, another actor is Daniel Draig from James Bond. Well, he only appears about 10-15 minutes in the movie. If you are his fan and hoping to see more of him, forget it! You will be disappointed.

Ok, I don’t want to ruin the movie by telling you the story. If you like having pets or keeping animals, I think you are going to like the movie a bit because there are tons of computer generated animals in it ranging from rats to bears. The story mainly revolves around the little girl who has the Golden Compass. It is her adventure with her soul a.k.a. daemon (her pet) using the compass to guide her way to safe her friend.

Rating: 7.0/10
