YesStyle Review

2017-09-27T22:17:00.000+01:00

http://www.yesstyle.com/en/women.html - Screencap from 27th September 2017

I feel like this is rather a long over due blog post from me, considering I feel like I have experienced everything YesStyle shipping, delievery and order related issues they could through at me and I am still using them having just made my most recent order to them today hahaha any please continue reading for a tonne of details on how I've experienced YesStyle in the time I've used them which from my first order being back in 2014, to now which is 2017.

Right so first I'll just tell you the general overall normal experience I've had with them when there hasn't been any delivery or shipping issues, and why I continue to use them as a whole.

I will do this in the same format as my YesAsia review in that,

1. Payment 2.Shipping 3. Delivery 4. Packaging and for YesStyle purpose 5. Issues and resolutions will be easy to find using the 'find' command.

So lets start with my last order I had from them being that of a massive Korean beauty product binge and a couple of super cheap clothes, in which they had a sale on so I decided to spurge and buy products that'd last for months and months on end! All this only cost me £58 and free shipping, along with a used member coupon and is an order that had nothing go wrong with my products order nor shipping haha~

So, lets begin!

1. Payment.

I have used both paypal and VISA debit card options for this site and all times I've used either option I have never had any problems and depending on the time I've ordered they've taken the money out on that day or the next working day. Prices in general I would say are great for most there products, and have a really great rewarding system for 'gold members' and for making reviews on products you've bought which means you can save money along the way which is one reason I keep going back 'cause I save so much money!

2.Shipping.

What I find and is very similar to how YesAsia works, is that times between you making your ordering and shipping can be months in between for some items. With items they have in stock it does say they will ship within 24 hours of ordering but some will just have the fact you can order and you'll have no idea when it'll be actually shipped in comparison to you order. This I find is a little annoying as it'll sometime also say ships with 7-14 days and it won't but that'll be spoken about in my Issues and Resolutions sections later on. In general, I would say its best for you to take advantage of their free Premium standard shipping as wait times and having to pay really rubs salt in a money spent wound in the first place. So I would recommend only buying when you can bulk buy it and gain from free shipping!

3.Delivery.

Now as mentioned in my last section, ordering, shipping and finally delivery are all very dependant on what they have in stock. You for example (using dates of some of my orders), one of my orders I ordered a batch of 7 items clothes and beauty products on the 24th June 2017, and it was shipped on the 10th of July 2017, so please consider that shipping and delivery are 2 very different things and should be counted differently. When I have ordered however they have been very, good at delivering on time within the 7-14 time frame. I've only emailed them once about delivery in which is was just a case I had miscalculated when my order should arrive so it was of no fault of theirs.

I live in the South of England just to give an area in which they deliver and their delivery companies vary so I have received from royal mail, DPD and hermes.

4.Packaging.

Unfortunately, because I am writing this after I have thrown out the copious amount of bubble wrap they put everything in I can only show you the massive box they put all my products in. Each time I have to say they do a really great job of packing everything, which everything I buy being wrapped in bubble wrap and in plastic bags to protect everything from dirt. So overall, packaging is always great with them!

5. Issues and resolutions.

Right onto the nitty-grity of issues I have come across whilst using them as a service.

First time I ever used them I bought a pink wig and a brown wig.

https://www.instagram.com/p/0NgCcpIKix/?taken-by=mayojaydesign

Only 1 I was about to received in the end. What happened? Well they couldn't get my item in stock. At the time I ordered the items on the 3rd December 2014 and recieved an email from them about my order on the 17th December saying:

"Dear (My Name here)

Thank you for shopping at YesStyle.co.uk.

We're sorry but some items from your order (my order number here) have not yet arrived from our suppliers.

Item Description Catalog Number Quantity

Item here item number 1

Some items on your order may be difficult to obtain due to popular demand. Although we are currently trying to obtain these items, there is no definite arrival date at this time. Please be assured that we will ship the items immediately when they arrive from our suppliers. If you do not wish to wait, please contact us to request cancellation of the delayed items.

We appreciate your patience and apologize for any inconvenience.

If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to contact our Customer Service Department by email or at the phone numbers listed below.

Yours sincerely,
Customer Service Department
YesStyle.com Ltd."

With this I cancelled that item ordered in which they replied my reply on the 18th Dec, made the changes to the order on the 19th Dec and then gave my refund and shipped on the 20th Dec and 22nd Dec! All in all being extremely efficient and friend with their service. If I remember right I recieved within 2 weeks of them shipping!

Issue number 2. Similar situation in which they couldn't get the product in, in decent time. They emailed the same thing as above in which I replied again saying I wanted a refund, however within that week they had gotten the item in and ended up shipping it the day after me receiving that order and I received the package within a week of them shipping so again quick efficient service.

Other than that, I have also emailed them about my tracking in which it was changing status I emailed them saying;

"(2017-06-28 02:23:05)

Hi,
I have been trying to track my order with the tracking number you provided me but it does not seem to be changing status and it says its coming from/ going to Germany even though it says in "en route" to my address.
I was wondering where my order has gone? The tracking you provided is as follows (my tracking number).
Thank you! "

They replied back saying that its was indeed on route, to which I found it was the delivery courier that had messed up my order and not YesStyle so that was resolved with them.

Overall, I have done 8 orders with them in the space of 3 years being a member with them. The products I've ordered have been that from their Korean beauty products, Korean fashion which has been mens and womens and accessories all that have been in my opinion good enough quality for the prices I've paid for them. Granted they've been mostly sale items and is when I normal order from them when I can get good bargain hahah but so far so good on quality.
I would recommend making an account with them firstly as I know you can check out as a guest but you wont get any of their perks of being a member. I would recommend only buying when you can get free shipping as wait periods can be long and even though as stated above ordering, shipping and delivery are all very different but the moment you pay for shipping it makes you feel like it should arrive faster than what it should because you paid, whereas making it free for yourself you won't feel as bad hahaha xD or from my experience! xD

I hope you found my review helpful and if you would like more reviews of a similar site check out my YesAsia one which follows the same concepts as YesStyle.

If you've made it this far, thank you for reading and please check out the rest of my blog! :D

I can never call myself a blogger!

2015-11-01T17:24:00.001+00:00

5 reasons I can never call myself a blogger.

The title is very self explanatory.

I CAN NEVER BE A BLOGGER.
Why? I'll tell you why!

1. I can't type properly.
I'm no good at typing. The amount of times I spell things wrong is ridiculous!
Even in this one sentence before I go spell checking I have six spelling mistakes. That's not because I can't spell them, it's because I can't type properly. I'm just used to using keyboards for playing games now a days not typing full sentences like I used to!

2. I'm not that exciting.
Before I use to blog about uni or going to the cinema. Thing is writing reviews got tedious and I finished uni. What more can I type about that I can't just show in photos on different media? I don't go out much. Well I do but its not stuff to blog about! Like I said I would rather just upload a photo of it elsewhere than have to watermark it and put it on my blog now a days. Just seems more convenient.

3. No One reads my blog!
Lets face it. No One reads my blog. Why would I continuously update my blog like I used to when no one reads it. I used to make daily posts! Do you know how hard that is to keep up with university and work experience?!? I would do my uni work as I ate, then get straight to blogging about my day til I went to bed! Then for no one to read. Its deflating, so yes I kinda just neglected updating it.

4. Finding a niche is hard.
My blog is a mix mash of a lot of things. Why? Because when I started my blog way back in December 2009 I didn't know what I was doing. If I could go back and start my blog again would I? Yes! I have film reviews, nail art, music and art all in one blog! How am I going to find an audience for that unless they also like all of those things?!? No wonder I don't have anybody reading!! Phew haha~

5. I'm useless at keeping up to date.
Blogging doesn't come natural to me anymore. Well I don't think it ever did, but I tried! I'm no good at juggling things like I used to now I'm working weird hours, trying to build my brand and saving money for bigger things for my future fashion career . Blogging just comes as an afterthought when I'm looking through my old links to update (like I did this evening and is now why I'm typing this post!). I actually really enjoy blogging when I'm in the flow of typing. Or should I say attempting to string a sentences together that eventually make sense, but time and finding inspiration for my posts comes hard when I have easier sharing solutions online now a days!

So theres my reasons. Blogging is hard. I guess for those who have made it successful blogging good for them! But I could never call myself a blogger! Haha

Whoever does read. If any. Thank you for reading!

~ Now you see me film review ~

Just seen the new film 'Now you see me'...I like magic, and this film is about magic. I didn't really know what to properly except, nor did I do any previous reading up on it.

So what is this film about?
A group of magicians, that specializes in different musician roles, such as a trickster/ sleight of hand artist, a mentalist/ psychic, an illusionist...and thats all the magician roles I know haha.... But anyway, they are conjured together to do a bunch of bank robbery performances, rewarding the audience with their...'earnings'. Obviously their performances are all magic tricks...which are all good! :)

I have to say this film is very clever. Although Its easy to understand so you won't be lost in it, its one of those films that got me thinking 'aww I would never have thought'....throughout. They portray how a magician would be the ultimate criminals, but also how they can be a ultimate detectives.

Anyway, out of all the magicians, Dave Francos and Woody Harrelson's characters I liked the best...Dont ask me why, I just liked their characters...Not that Jesse Eisenberg and Isla Fishers characters were not great too hahah~
Mark Ruffulos character was very good too, however in my head I've just type casted him as 'Hulk!' hahah xD

Overall, if you like magic, magic shows and a heavy story based film then then will be your film. I have not really seen another film like this so from a film only perspective its an original for me. (Obviously, there are magic series on TV and things but me personally have not seen a magic based film beside ones containing witches, wizards, and all fantasy!) also If you like Jesse Eisenberg then I'd say hes in his prime again as hes acting like as an obnoxious jerk again like in the social network! hahah~

Thank you for reading and tell me what you thought about it in the comments below~

Other films you may like, with the certain actors in as I don't know what to really compare it to:-
*ZombieLand - Jesse Eisenberg & Woody Harrelson
*Bunraku - Woody Harrelson
*Oz the great and powerful - Dave Franco's brother, James Franco! hahah xD

After Earth

2013-06-25T12:29:00.003+01:00

~ After Earth ~

Yesterday I went to see Will Smith's new film 'After Earth'...trailer looked good for this and although I know its been out for quite awhile now, doesn't mean I'm not going to make a review of it!....~~Unlike the purge which I watched before Man of Steel and I still haven't made a review of it, even though I really liked it!~~

Anyway, back on track. What's this film about?...Well it follows Kitai (Jaden Smith) and his dad ...Cyther (Will Smith) as after they crash on Earth....Well what remains after earth when we had to escape...for a reason to be honest I don't know, beside alien things....

Anyway, this film starts of with complete action....However not explosion action nor fighting, its weird action. Just more settin the pace and scene of the film as a whole. yeah I'm not going to be saying what actually happens. Even though to be honest, its been spoiled in trailers already and practically all the story has been said in trailer anyway.

Now, acting. As we all know Jaden is Will Smiths son....I'm completely stating the obvious, but with Jaden even though hes just a kid to me and I don't like kids, Jaden I have always been able to tolerate. His acting is really good in this I find. He portrays emotions well and to be honest stating the obvious again he is picking up of on of his dad quirks in acting, which is pretty cool haha. Anyway, Will Smith as always great acting, nothing more to say about that.

Soundtrack. There was hardly any soundtrack to be honest, or IN MY opinion anyway. It was lead by our own curiosity throughout with sound only really being played during the action. I find its good at keeping suspense put it that way! ....

Hmm, i;ll think I'll finish this with overall, its a good film. I would not reccomend to everyone as I feel a lot of people will find it boring, however if you like thought filled, moral and emotional films then watch it, Im sure you wont be disappointed.

Thanks you for reading. If you have the explanation to why people had to leave earth in the first place please enlighten me in the comment section below.

~ Man of Steel ~

So today, watched Man of Steel....
Although I will full admittingly say I have not always been very fond of the overpowered, Superhero of Superman. I will always give all DC films a chance knowing that they have always been good films....mostly.

Whats it about? Well to be honest anybody that knows Superman in general should know what its about and the fact that as the story of Superman as a whole..lets face it, has been remade numerous amounts of times already, so I would assume that most people would get the general jist of it.
Either way for the sake of this post. Its about Kal-el, or Clark Kent as his alias, who was born on Krypton. Sent to earth as a baby. Grew up on Earth thinking he was ~~a freak~~ different and then finding out his past from a Kryptonian General Zod...or really his father Jor-el more so...but hey...either way really as they both played a part in ~~destroying his normal life~~ telling him his past....
Right so as its quite a self explained story I won't carry on explaining it.

Continuing on, I found the action was very over the top and completely unrealistic, as New York was completely and utterlly destroyed in the end...but with that said, I loved that it was over the top action! I mean its a Superhero film, I expect it to be full of action. What i did like about the action, and is somewhat silly. Is all impact scenes or punches, ect...you could feel the sound in your chest...or my friends and I did....which is what gave the little extra something to the film overall.

Hmm to be honest there is only good things I can say about this film. From my point of view it has become one of my all time favourite superhero films, that includes if I were comparing to Marvel hero films. I would even go as far as saying its beat The Avengers in my book too!....I just really feel it has portrayed Superman in all its glory. I find they have got a good balance between character development, storytelling and action which is something I find a lot of other superhero films have failed at in someway.

Overall, watch this film! I would say watch it in the cinema as well to you can get the full feeling of the film too to be honest. :)..(Edit) The only TINY thing that I have just realised they dont have in this film...is the original Superman theme tune somewhere....well unless it did and I didnt hear it...thats the only small thing I dont like about it....haha ;)

Oh and one last thing does Henry Cavill make a god superman? YES! Indeed he does! :D
Am I dissppointed about him not have the superman trunks? I can look past it as 1. the story was GREEEAT, 2. The director guy had a good reason for once for changing it!

Iron Man 3

~ Iron Man 3 review ~

Just watched Iron Man three.

So what is this film about? Tony Stark is going against 'The Mandarin'...now please do not consider the mandarin as anything in this film. For anybody that knows the Mandarin from the original comics do not even consider him as the mandarin or you'll explode...I really do not know why they pretended that the mandarin was in it! Just think of him 'a mask of evil' as quoted from the film hahah....Hmm thats really all I can say without spoiling as a lot happens between all of that.

Anyway, Tony Stark has been portrayed differently in this film. He hardly uses his suit as a suit anymore, more of a 'I'm going to control Iron Man' robot type thing..('Hmmm is that some type of meaning behind the story now that I think about it? 'Controlling the Ironman?'). Anyway all that stuff is cool and everything and the effects were Amazing and in no way can I fault how amazing the CG is in the whole entire film! But throughout I found it just turned into a normal action film, with Stark shooting guns and being trapped to a bed stand. (Not in the Sherlock holmes way!)....I got bored.
NOW throw cannonballs at me, I know that will be a completely unpopular opinion, but I did!...I turned into a too much of a terrorist film for me, and not a superhero film I wanted it to be!
I want the mandarin to have his magical rings, and have magic, and for it to be completely unrealistic and to bring comic books alive.
I mean Tony Stark and Iron man and this time, right now is unrealistic, why cant there BE magic in a SUPER HERO film! If citys can be destroyed in mintues by ALIENS and spaceships in Avengers, then why cant the mandarin have magic powers?....
...Now go on say it..."It is a terrorist film"....Yeah, It is somewhat meant to be a terrorist film, but to me, it turned no longer into a superhero film, but more of a meaningful 'insight' into 'how people need to deal with terrorists'....Its real, its happening in real life,...but I dont want that to be in fantasy, sci-fi, action whatever it is films too!

Anyway. Lets sum this review up with 3 good points and 3 bad points.
The Good:
1. Effects- Stunning! All of it! Portrayed iron man's strengths well!
2. Acting- All was good....except The mandarin. You'll see why.
3. Iron Man suits...Youll see why.

The Bad.
1. The story- Too realistic, got boring and I want it to be more into a comic book world not always 'portraying a reality'
2. The villain once again.
3. Nothing relates to the original comic story once again. Besides 'Title' and 'character names'... which is a pattern within every single superhero film now and its pointless even comparing the comics to the films anymore. The films just uses the names of comics and not the stories or portrayals of comicswhat so ever, once again.

Hmm...thats all I can say about this. Give me your opinion the comments below and thank you for reading it this far if you are still reading! :D~

Evil Dead 2013

http://renegadecinema.com/3186/evil-dead-2013-review

~Evil Dead 2013 reveiew~

Yesterday I watch Evil Dead..the new one.

So for all those who think it is a remake, its not. So before watching this go into thinking it s WHOLE NEW story with nothing related to the previous films, except the title and hmm a very minor basic concept of the film!....so what is this ~~hash up~~ of a film about?

About a group of friends who go to a remote Cabin in the woods to help one of them get over a drug addiction. In The process they discover an evil book and unleashes evil upon them.
Now unless I want to spoil the whole thing I really can't say too much about it.
But I can say, why is this film called 'Evil Dead' if:
1. It is not like the originals story at all?
2. It doesn't really follow the story of Evil Dead really but more of 'The last exorcism' story/feel?

Anyways, basing this film on the film itself and not from Evil Dead original It is a gore-fest of film with blood and chopping of limbs every few scenes. It was surely gruesome! The effects were good, the blood looked good and the gore-ness was good...IF you like gore...I am indifferent about gore so i can't really give an opinion on that. However I can say that for me where it was gore, I didn't find it scary...at all...But thats just me. However, ALOT of people I know that have, find it terrifying and some have cried....so base it on that whether you will watch it or not.

If I were to compare to the creepy, eerie-ness of the old one. Well this new Evil Dead is so hollow and lifeless compared to the old one, that its pointless comparing Reason being in my opinion. Too much gore. It makes it so soulless.

Hmm, I'll just sum this up with. Its an ok film if you view it was a 'nothing to do witht eh original films'...its not great but not terrible.

Tell me your opinion in the comments below and thank you for reading!! :)

Scary Movie 5 movie review

I do not know why the coding is showing/doing that....I have tried fixing it with no success each time! So I apologize for that! If you have any suggestes for fixing it, Please tell me! I would appreciate it!! :)

Scary Movie. So Scary Movie films have always been one of those films that people either love or hate. This new one however, I think will most likely go down to the 'I hate it route'... However for me, and my friend who have just watched it....we are obviously stupid enough to find near every scene funny....

There is no real main story as always, beside mix mashing up of different films storys, so some of the movies parodied in Scary Movie 5 are:

*Rise of the planet of the Apes <- a="" everywhere....="" intellignet="" made="" making="" monkeys....by="" of="" poo="" them="" thorw="">

*Cabin in the woods <- dogg="" for="" me="" p="" ruined="" s="" scene="" snoop="" this="" title="">

*Insidious

*Mama <- a="" able="" be="" being="" film="" funny.="" i="" it="" know="" not="" now="" to="" watch="" will="" without="">

*Evil Dead <- a="" again="" an="" comedy-ish="" film="" haha....="" horror="" idiot-fest="" into="" made="" yet="">

*Black Swan
*Paranormal Activity.

My main issue with this new one when seeing the trailers was, 'where is Cindy and Brenda?!?'...and 'Who are these new people?!?'...rest assured 'old' scary movie fans...they are not replacements! They are completely new characters!....And they do a good job at living up to the stupidness of the old.

Basic what all scary movie films come down to real I think is, 'Is it funny?'
This is an opinion that will differ from person to person majorly. I find has pushed the stupidity to a new level...in which, near every single scene involved something....well....stupid. The humour is terrible and over the top, literally like an idiot spat some stuff up and made a film....which is why I said it'll probably go down the 'I hate it route' as (like I keep repeating!) most of the humour is just plain stupid.

Overall what I'm trying to say is, if you like 5 years funny stuff like 'poo jokes', silly comments like 'where did (something) go if a shadow goes over it', dancing swimming pool cleaners and people making stupid noises.... then congrats you're like me and you'll like this film. If you don't find any of those types of things funny, then you will not like this film simpe as that haha....so yeah.

If you have seen this film tell me what you think of it in the comments below and thank you for reading.

~ Dark Skies movie review~

I wasn't really excepting to even watch Dark Skies to be honest, but my friends asked so I went! haha...I didn't really know what to even except either actually.

So what its about? A normal family who are a little 'under the weather' financially, but live like a normal 'sunny' family should trying to get by. Then obviously things start going wrong and they have to figure out what is happening within their family!

Ok, so reading that you probably think 'that sounds boring!'...well the film overall, really isn't!..
IF you like thriller films....or should I say darn right Scary/ creepy films! Now I don't get creeped out by a lot of things and I've watched ALOT of scary/creepy films, but this one really got to my head! They made some of the 'scary' scenes like those of an Asian film in which they are not obviously THERE, bam in your face...its waits until you are not focused on the background to give you sneaky hints of the 'scary' things....Ok so that probably didn't make much sense at all, but me put a scenario for you.
In the film it was panning around one of the main characters Daniel Barret (Josh Hamlinton)...the background is completely back, but then whilst through a door the thing is there. They don't make any effort to focus on it nor look at it, we just know its there..... which I think makes it stay in you head more....well for me it has as now I'm home shadows are looking rather spooky to me at the moment hehehe~ If anything even though I'm not scared by 'slenderman'...its that type of scare!

Anyway, soundtrack it just like any other scary film, not really much of it just to create tension and suspense...so I couldn't really say much about it.

CG, was adverge, wasn't anything special about it really. I don't have anything really to say about visuals.

Acting, was again more about evoking emotions and I find the actors and actresses done a very good job on it.

Overall, if you like alien films, scary films or ghost films, it would be worth a watch. Its not the best horror I've seen but it definitely is not the worse!

Thank you for reading and let me know what you think in the comments below! :)

Oz The Great and Powerful film review

2013-03-25T21:23:00.001+00:00

http://collider.com/wp-content/uploads/oz-the-great-and-powerful-banner-poster.jpg

So I've finally got to watch this film at last!
I was excepting it to be good and I was pleasantly surprised at how GOOD this film really is!

So what is it about? Well it follows the great wizard of Oz (James Franco), before he was the great wizard and was a small town magician in Kansas. Well obviously he somehow gets to Oz and he becomes the wizard. But you'll have to find out how..if you haven't already spoiled it for yourself by reading other reviews! Along the way he meets his servant monkey Finley (Zach Braff) and the three witches (Glinda the good witch- Michelle Williams)....two of which Wicked! (Evanora - Rachel Weisz and Theodora- Mila Kunis)...So this bring Oz to haing to fight the Oz and emerald city to take control. BUt of course I don't want to spoil how he does this!

Anyway, with a soundtrack from Danny Elfman it was good. A little predictable on what it sounds like to be honest, but still good.

The story was easy to follow and kept itself entertaining without being over the top....In other words there was not a ton of JUST talking scenes with nothing at all happening. James Franco (as always for me) played his part very well portraying the cocky and arrogant side of Oz first and transforms seamlessly to the kind Oz at the end. I love his portrayal of Oz, but that maybe just my opinion!he balance between action and talking. Well this was like an 'explosions' type of action, its more like ermm, fireworks, magic and trickery action....so base you opinion on whether you'll like it on this!

Right so CG.....even though it was very unrealistic, and completely unbelievable in the slightlest, with even some scenes looking like an obvious back drop! I think this style was purposely like this as it had an 'old fashion' feel throughout the whole film. However that couldbe just my bias opinion. I still think it done its job well of showing the magically place Oz is. The scenery was overtop and very Alice in Wonderland-esc...which I think suited itself very well....

Right so overall. I would say got to watch this film if you like Harry Potter, Alice in Wonderland, The Wizard of Oz and the musical Wicked.

Wreck-it Ralph film review

2013-02-11T19:54:00.002+00:00

http://geektyrant.com/news/2012/9/13/new-wreck-it-ralph-poster-debuts.html Poster from.

HI! So I'm actually back with a review of the new Disney film 'wreck-it Ralph'....To be honest in the time I've not updated here I have watch 'Les Miserables' but lets not talk about that.

So what Wreck-it Ralph about? Completely set in an arcade world, in which its kind of like a Toy Story moment when the arcade closes the video game characters 'live on' in their own worlds. The main character Ralph is the bad guy in his game 'Fix-it Felix Jr'. With this he gets fed up of living a bad guy and tries to become a hero. This all makes things crazy and he has to set things right. Along the way he meets characters Vanellope Von Scheetz, Calhoun, King Candy and of course Fix-it Felix Jr.

Being a Disney film I always except good things, and as always they meet that expectation. Featuring game characters from (what I can remember) Mario, Mortal Kombat, Pac Man, Sonic, Street Fighter, Space Invaders, Dance Dance Revolution and many more that I cant think of or probably recognise its really has a lot going on, but I think they've really balanced action, with humour, emotion, calm and dialogue. The animation looks great and the soundtrack is amazing, with a mix of old-school and modern game-like music. The only annoying thing that I think may and up-ed this is if they had put different types of graphics such as a lower 'looking' resolution to older games and a new 'looking' resolution feel to new ones same goes for music. Backing tracks could have been more retro sounding for old ones and modern for new. What I mean overall is that the CG and soundtrack was modern looking all the way through. However I will say movements of the old games where great! (You'll need to watch to find out what I mean!)

What else can I say? I don't know, but overall I loved this film!! Go watch it! hehe

Thanks for reading and tell me what you think in the comment thing below! :)

The Hobbit- An Unexcepted Journey

~ The Hobbit- An Unexpected Journey - Movie Review ~

Hi! So I've not updated film reviews since October when I watched Frankenweenie! But now I'm finally back! To be honest, I have actually watched Rise of the Guardians in between The Hobbit and Frankeweenie, but I've not had anytime to be able to make a review, so except that review after this one or soon after!

Anyway back of the matter or film I should say at hand! The Hobbit is about our lovely Bilbo Baggins, before he becomes old in the Lord of the Rings. This is Bilbo story before Frodo's in other words! Just to clarify before I get any further with the storyline, I have not read The Hobbit or any of the Lord of the Rings books, so I am reviewing this purely on what watched in the film alone! With that said, Bilbo is requested by Gandalf the blue wizard, to join an 'adventure' to reclaim the Dwarves land from the dragon Smaug, in which he abruptly declines! Obviously the story would not continue if that was his final decision, but the full story you'll have to find out yourself!

Anyway, the story I found was amazing, it flowed well, kept you interested the whole way though without making you bored in places and had a nice balance between action and 'calm'. But with that said the thing I was most amazed by was the CG! It was absolutely one of the best Cg films I've seen of the year! I looked ridiculously realistic in most the parts, its something you'd have to see for you to understand how epic it was haha xD...I watched in 2D so I wouldn't know how the 3D would look, however I would say its a film I'd bother watching in 3D to get the full effect of depth!

The soundtrack was great, what can I say its what set the films emotions! haha...my friend said she'd buy it, if that gives you any idea on how good the soundtrack was.

Acting, as I excepted was great, the dwarves where really fun characters! Each of them having their own personality, like the seven dwarves in Snow White haha...

Umm, hmm to be honest, myself personally can only say good things about this film! It IS a long film being a an almost 3 hours, (2 hour and 45 minutes!), so please for the sake of everyone in the cinema and yourself, do not take kids in with you, I wouldn't say its very kid friendly anyway, as I know somehow they'll get bored as it VERY story driven!

Hmm, I have to say though I was actually really creeped out by Gollum/ Sméagol whichever it was! The way he crawls and acts! Ahh so, so creepy and that's coming from a 21 year old that doesn't normally get creeped out by anything! hahah xD ~

Anyway continuing with the only bad point.

This part will in-fact be a spoiler, so if you do not want to know the ending, DO NOT READ!

Right, so the only annoying and obviously done thing in the film, is the major cliff hanger! Its one of the most annoying cliff hangers I've come across in a long time, as the I found the whole entire was literally about getting to the 'Kingdom of Erebor'.I knew it was going to be that to a degree, but literally there is no ending. By the end of the film you see that they are still NO WHERE NEAR their destination, making you instantly know the 2nd film will be again, about them just getting there!

I mean literally there was no resolution to the film what so ever really, just about them looking at a mountain in the far, far, far, FAR distance. I mean sure there was just an epic battle, but really there was no conclusion just, 'oh we need to get there'....its like playing a video game and doing a boss battle ,only to find afterwards that the boss has a second stage for you to beat but he's ran all the way across the other side of the map for you to beat him, or wait for the next game! Rather annoying feeling if you ask me haha..but as I said there's such an obvious reason behind that of 'you'll have to watch the next film!'

Beside that 'well planned' gripe its a really good film and for me one of the best I've seen for the year!

Thanks for reading and let me know what you think, in the comments below!

Frankenweenie 2012 Review

2012-10-23T21:05:00.000+01:00

~Frankenweenie Movie review ~

Yesterday I saw Tim Burtons new 'freaky' film of Frankenweenie.

I always love a good Tim Burton film, so this will probably sound completely and utterly bias towards it, however I always write what I actually think about the film, so please read anyway because its an honest opinion hehe :) ~

Riight so what is this film about? So being a full film adaptation of Tim Burtons old short film from 1984, its follows Victor Frankenstein who is a young genius whose great at science...and oh is basically like Mary Shelleys Frankenstein....only in kid form haha...As this is not a spoiler and rather just plain obviously Victors dog and only friend dies....Not being able to accept Sparkys death Victor resurrects his dear pooch. Along side this Mr. Rzykruski, the new science teacher announces the science contest meaning you meet Victors rivals of Weird Girl, Edgar 'E' Gore, Toshiaki and Norros.

Now thats over, what did I think of the film? Well...I have to say I really liked it. It had that creepy, kind of demented mind set of Tim Burton I excepted from his previous Alice In Wonderland. It was very twisted and really had a good pace. Being only a 1 hour and 45 minute film, it tells the story very well and yes, in my opinion for those who want that weird-ed comedy thats slightly obscure then I would say for a kids film this is for you.
The animation is as excepted great! However I don't know if because its a black and white film, the models used looked..hmm wrinkly in places which for me was a little distracting haha....
The soundtrack again, Danny Elfmans and Tim Burton has their ways of making the eerie sound eerie and the happy...sound...high haha....so I liked it.
Hmm really me personally only have good things to say about this film, however if it were from my friends, he would say it was boring and stupid.
So watch it if you like the original, like Tim Burton, or like a slighlty twisted kids film.
Thanks for reading and please let me know what you thought! :D

Panda and Hedgehog: My verdict

2012-10-11T22:02:00.002+01:00

~ Panda and Hedgehog: Kdrama Review ~

*Does contain some spoilers, but they are predictable so you they wont count haha xD*

Right so I've been watching yet another Korean Drama of Panda and Hedgehog (I would go through the many names of this drama, but whats the point in that haha)
I've watched all pretty much since it come out so I'm up-to date on the episode and all that....and well its finished now too hehe.
So my main reason for watching it?..DongHae, same reason for watching Skip Beat! too heheh ;P

Anyway, its about a Go Seung Ji (played by the lovely DongHae) whose a patissier and orphan in which he is rivalling against Choi Won II's Saint Honore (played by Choi Jin Hyuk). He does this by teaming up Pan Da Yang (played by Yoon Seung Ah). Along the way they meet a hundred and 1 characters, whose names I can't actually seem to keep in my head so you've got the Saint Honore 'crew' and the Panda 'crew', there ya' go! haha...
So I guess you'll get the basic gestures of what happens in this drama from others, theres obviously a love triangle, rivalry and tragedy! I bet you can guess who the love triangle is between....yes, Seung Ji, Pan Da Ya and Won II....though I am not revealing who 'wins'!

Right so, what I found is it starts off being funny, with silly little things happening that makes it a good starter and very cute. Panda started out I find being a really good character, she was fun and well very much like any other girl lead in a drama but she seemed idiotically different haha. However that soon slips after a while.. and she turns, hmm rather annoying. Constantly over reacting over the most trivial things, and overall becoming an annoying attention seeker whose quite selfish when you think about it haha...I still sort of like her,but she's really not the best female leads I've seen and I preferred her sister and Won II sister much better!

I also found with the story that it gradually gets to the point where some parts are tediously boring, which is not a good sign. Even though I say this, I still liked the story..mainly because of watching DongHae makes yummy looking cakes and desserts! .... However,I've seen better.
Thoughout the series I absolutely loved the interactions between Won II and Hedgehog the most. These I found where the best scenes and what I wanted to watch the most.... oooh the bromance between them, especially with both the lead actors being so damn cute and handsome!! haha~
To be honest, even though I was watching this drama for DongHae I actually liked Won II more so than Hedgehog, and I think it was mainly for his facial expressions and his voice and actions/personality. They are great hahah xD

Hmm, emotional wise I didn't feel anything for any of these characters, unlike with Skip Beat!, Heartstrings, You're Beautiful and others I've browsed at. They didn't seem to trigger anything whilst watching....kinda sad, but maybe thats why I couldn't get into it too much?

Hmm, what else to say? Hmm, unlike other dramas where I find it can be for both girls and guys, this one I find is a little more..hmm girl based, but that doesn't mean guys obviously cant watch and enjoy it but I do find that it would appeal to them as much haha xD~

Thats all I think I can say, I'd say still watch it because it has its super cutesy and funny parts....and even though I criticised it, I'm sure you'll like it more than me haha xD~
K, thats it thanks for reading and let me know what you think!

YesAsia Review

2012-08-08T14:43:00.001+01:00

http://www.yesasia.com/global/en/home.html - Screencap from 8th August 2012

~ YesAsia Review ~

So this is not my usual review, but seeming as people are interested in hearing others views on YesAsia.com, I thought I'd give my opinion here :)

I am a 'new customer' to YesAsia, so my first order from them was of Super Juniors 'Sexy, Free and Single' :)...
I could rant at how great this album is, however this is a review of YesAsia, not Super Junior....

At the time YesAsia had the summer sale or whatever sale thing it was, so the 'album plus poster' had 25% off, in which for me in pounds cost only £26.73-ish. Although it could be seen as expensive, I considered that it IS a book, plus album, plus Poster which really its retentively good for what you get.
I also trusted that the site gave legit products and I also had read they are reliable site in the first place, which is the reason I decided to shop with them, than elsewhere.

Now onto 1.Payment, 2.Shipping and 3.Delivery and 4.Packaging.(Use 'find' to find the sections you are looking for :D)

1.Payment-
I ordered on the Friday 13th of July 2012 and used the Paypal payment method. As this is my first order from YesAsia I cannot compare any of their other payment methods. But the payment showed on my bank statement by the Monday or Tuesday of the next week, meaning well fast payment hehe~

2.Shipping-
As for Shipping. Very fast! They shipped the next day (Saturday 14th July), in which they send an email saying that they have.

3.Delivery-
For delivery I am going to try and be as accurate as possible with dates as whilst reading other opinions, it annoyed me that people didn't include what dates they ordered, when YesAsia shipped, what country the person lives or how long it took for them to receive...which for me was all the things I wanted to know!

I live in the South of England, so that'll give you an idea of whereabouts it is being delivered. As mentioned before I ordered on the Friday 13th of July 2012 and they shipped the next day. I was excepting it to be pretty fast seeming as it shipped that fast.

However since shipment, quite a while had pasted...ok well only 10 days (not including Sundays at the time) haha...and I was getting a little worried because I have always been used to 2-3 day deliveries from other companies in the past haha~

By then it was 26th July so I emailed them asking if it had been lost or if it was still on it way.
They replied the next day (27th July) with:

"Dear (My name here),
Thank you for writing to YesAsia.com!

In reference to order (My order number), the corresponding shipment left our warehouse on Jul.14. Your selected shipping method was standard shipping, which normally requires 6 to 14 business days (excluding weekends) from the shipment date for delivery.

We apologize but we were not issued a tracking code for this shipment as it is being treated as normal air mail by the post office. As the shipment period has not yet exceeded expected delivery time, please wait a few more days. Please note that this is an international shipment from Hong Kong and may experience minor delivery delays due to customs or postal issues."

With that I carried on waiting. I took out all Saturdays before that in which 14 days actually branched across 3 weeks, of weekdays only. I excepted my delivery to be Thursday 2nd August however it still didn't turn up by then so I emailed them again asking the same things and if it had just been delayed. They replied again the next day with:

"Dear (my name here),

Thank you for writing to YesAsia.com!

Possible delay may be caused due to customs clearance or postal issues and we apologize that your order may have experienced such delay.

If by AUG 11 this is still undelivered, please inform us immediately for further checking. We would not allow our customers to bear the loss and a reshipment will be created further."

In the end mine took 18 days in which it was delivered Wednesday 8th August (today actually if you take a look see at the date of this post! hehe) by Royal Mail for those who are are waiting haha ;)....My order I knew/know is coming in 2 parts, so at the moment I have my album only with no poster....I'm hoping my poster will come tomorrow! :)

4. Packaging.

Here are all the pictures of packaging :) Although as said my poster will come a little later than this delivery, I will add the packaging for that once I get it....

The packaging is pretty basic as you can see, its the same quality as Amazon really, so pretty good. However I am a little annoyed that the shrink wrap plastic around the album seemed too tight so it bent the corners a little bit..otherwise all good to me! :D~

Overall, I think I will be shopping with them again. Although its the slowest delivery I've ever experienced, the 1st/main part of my order come only 4 days later than the excepted 14 days, so not so bad, only have my poster to come still.... The pricing for me I found pretty decent, ONLY if you get free shipping which only counts if you spend $40 which is about £26. So for us UK customers, finding something for only £26 will be pretty easy hehehe :)~

So yeah, I hope this helps anyone that is ordering from YesAsia, sorry it quite a long read but I've tried exampling well everything hahaha... please tell me your experiences in the comments below!

Thank you for reading! :D~

Batman: The Dark Knight Rises Review

2012-07-24T21:00:00.000+01:00

~ Batman: The Dark Knight Rises ~

Hello! Back with yet another review!
This time of the new Batman.
Riiiight, so the Batman films I have always liked. The teasers/trailers have always looked good and appealed to me. However this one, it looked boring in the trailers so I didn't except too much from it, nor to be honest did I like the looks of Anne Hathaway as Catwomen....So heres what I thought afterwards....
Buut thats going to be after I give you a brief summary of Batman first haha.
Its based 8 years after the previous Batman, The Dark Knight...or 'the one with Joker' in, which Wayne has retired Batman after being 'blamed' for murdering Harvey Dent. With this a new evil Bane has risen to take over and destroy Gotham City. As obvious as it is and is hardly a spoiler, Bruce Wayne then costumes up once again as the Dark Knight to stop this evil! Anyway, as mentioned above Catwomen is also in this and she is there to help Batman....Hmm thats about it.

K, so as I said before, the trailers for this one didn't appeal to me much, so after watching it I can say, the trailers did not do this film justice. The story no matter how inaccurate it is as always, was very action packed and enjoyable, I can't fault it on story if I'm basing on Film only and not comics. It flowed very well and well yeah as with the previous Batman films they had a lot of CG and hero villian fights haha... However, with that I can say, some scenes seemed to have went on forever, with too much talking...but I guess it was necessary to tell the story....

So on to Anna Hathaway as Catwomen....she was surprisingly good! My original thoughts on her being Catwomen were 'she's going to be a prissy kitty and almost be 'too stuck up', princessy and posh to be a character like Catwomen' I can't describe my views on that properly but I think you understand?
My views on here changed as she showed she a devious character and she can fight well hehe.....you understand if you watch it!
On to Bane...so Bane for one thing doesn't have his costume and as my dad said when he saw the pics 'he looks like hes got a Mortal Kombat mask on' haha.....he's not as big as Bane, however I find Tom Hardy played him well and portrayed his power well....

Errmmm, hmm what else can I say about this? Hmm watch it if you;ve like the previous Batman films. Its the last in the trilogy, and yeeeeahh.....

Oh and slight spolier here, so dont read if you don't want any spoilers...for those who know the story on Robin...grr you'll be annoyed by how they've featured him in this somehow....

Anyway, thanks for reading...let me know what you thought in the comments below! :D~

The 'Amazing' Spiderman

2012-07-17T19:45:00.001+01:00

http://abovegroundmagazine.com/news/culture-news/movies/05/02/movie-posters-the-amazing-spider-man-official/

~ The Amazing Spiderman ~

'Amazing' Spiderman.....Hmm Amazing is just something you cannot use for this film.
So we all know what Spiderman is about I think, but just to have a small synopsis on this film....Its a re-boot of the other Spiderman films, which in my honest opinion was soo much better than this film!
It begins with Peter Parker whose a normal student, that is excellent at science. Gwen Stacey his 'love interest'....and how Peter Parker becomes the amazing Spiderman.....Oh and Dr Conners the 'crazy' scientist guy that not many people take a lot of attention to who turns himself into a Lizard in which Spiderman has to defeat him, after his overcome his 'oh so difficult social life'.....

Do you get a somewhat disappointed Vibe from me? Well you'd be right on that!
However disappointed I am in this film, I will start with all the good things. So the general storyline was very close to the comic, ok a few scenery mistakes like when he got bit, and the usual story mistakes (as usual), but otherwise rather accurate. Spidey's costume was very good! The CG as excepted was really good, and when they eventually got to some worth while action scenes they were good.. Stan Lee's appearance there are probably a few more good points about this film and I know there are ...but ermm, I usual like soundtracks to films, but this one I can't comment on as it wasn't that great either....so now onto the bad.

Right so Peter Parker himself. You may agree or disagree with me on this, but I found him incredibly irritating! Ok, so yes, Parker is arrogant and cocky whilst donned in his Spidey costume, but really, they took it over board, and he became annoying ...Who is this character they are trying to portray in this film?!?
Parker IS and is meant to be a geek....this Parker is a hipster?...no an emo? maybe a skater? no actually I think he's a rebel?... hmm plus a friend to 'jocks'...an a liked person in his school, whats that all about? Parker isn't liked, nor is he a rebel, or does he skate around on a skateboard. He doesn't argue (well much hah) with his aunt and uncle like a moody emokid, NO! But enough of this, I could go on forever about how much I don't like him as Peter Parker.... I don't care if they've portrayed him like this in the new comics (they are rubbish in my opinion haha) this Parker I don't like.....hmm yeah, thats all I'll say about Parker. Oh and the whole thing of him revealing his identity to practically everyone, because its 'oh so hard' to keep in to himself....gah! >.<....

Next comes to how they told the story. So as I said above the story is pretty accurate, but it revolved I find way too much about Parkers social life and his love life with Gwen, and very little about the Lizard who is the main villain in this film. Although they are trying to 'grow' his character in the film and this involved Gwen of course, the scenes between them went on for too long, making it seem more of a romance film and not spiderman.... more of Peter Parkers 'miserable' life and how he overcomes his misfortunes because he's so greeeeat....However thats not a major gripe I had, it was more the portrayal of Spidey and Parker that annoyed me the most, which I think is the main reason this film for me was pretty bad.

A few other things that I'll only mention because this post is becoming rather well.... long, is the Lizard himself, although looked good to some degree, I prefer him with 1. A longer LIZARD like snout and not looking like a snake with legs 2. coarser scales that didn't make his skin look just blobby... and well the lizard doesn't run around completely naked he usually has his lab coat on which he had sometime, but kept ripping it off hahahaha.... umm Gwen although wasn't the worse nor I'd say that bad at all, I didn't like her haha, maybe due to Parker being so annoying so its kind of clouded my judgment on her? And final lets see, certain characters dieing near the end who shouldn't have?

Yeah thats all I've got to say about this film. It'll be good if you don't know Spiderman very well and just like all the 'new comics' , but it'll be bad if you do know the true Spiderman. So tell me what you think of the Amazing Spiderman...Chances are a lot of you will think it lives up to the title of 'Amazing', because thats all I've been seeing, but I'm hoping some will have a similar opinion to me? hehe~

Ok if you've actually made it this far, thank you so much for reading I really appreciate that you have! I really apologise for the grammar and sentencing, but to be honest with a somewhat rant like this proofreading doesn't come into it huh? :)~ Anyway thanks again for reading, and check out my other reviews :D~

Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter Movie Review

2012-06-27T16:16:00.001+01:00

http://brandnewcool.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/abraham-lincoln-vampire-hunter-poster-lenticular.jpg http://uk.movies.ign.com/articles/121/1214852p1.html

~ Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter Movie Review ~

Yesterday I watched Abraham Lincoln vampire hunter (as the title of this post so obviously states)...so as usual for me now, I'm here reviewing it!

So whats it about? The title of the film is rather obvious as well, its about Americas old president Abraham Lincoln discovering Vampires and wanting to kill them out of revenge. He meets Henry Sturgess who kind of give Abe.L his targets to kill. Really thats all I can kind of say as to not spoil anything so I'll leave the 'about' like that. So as many may also know its based on the book of the same name, however, I've not read the book so I can't compare....so I'll be basing my review on the quality of the film alone~

I was excepting quite a bit from this, as the trailers looked good, plus I like vampires....so where my expectations of this film destroyed? No! It was all very good actually. Vampires where portrayed as vampire haha, the action was really, really good with ermm axe training, vampire and axe fights, sword and vampire fights, dragger and vampire fights and ermm gun and vampire fights...yeah I think that was all the fighting types in the film, but yeah it was all very well choreographed so it looked cool.
Hmm CG was realllly good, I loved how they portrayed the vampires as mentioned above, they seem to have went for a many pointy teeth feel rather than just canines...
Umm the soundtrack I especially liked as well and is one of the best tracks I've heard in a film for a while, so I'll be looking into the artist(s), as it has a vintagey, rocky, heavy feels..ish....

Errm to be honest I'm a little stuck on what to talk about, as the overall film was really very good, and people will only watch films either way because of what they think it good or not. But in my opinion, if you like anything vampire, a somewhat historical war film, horror or in generally liked the look of adverts of it, I'd say watch it...you really can not go wrong with it, as I think its really good!

So yeah let me know what you think in the comments below, and thank you for reading my somewhat useless review hah xD~

*Sorry my grammar probably is really bad as in this post but read this-> http://mayonakasun.blogspot.co.uk/2012/06/blogging.html I think it'll explain a little! :)

I have absolutely no motivation to do it.
Typing isn't hard it's finding stuff to blog about, thats hard.
I mean I would post about my recent art that I've posted on deviantART, but the quality of them are pretty bad so I don't feel as if I should....what do any of you think?? :D

Snow white and the huntsman

~Snow White and the Huntsman ~

Back with yet another review now, this time of Snow White and the Huntsman.

So its a film that I thought was going to be good, but nothing spectacular which to be honest is what it was.

So it follows the basic concept and story of Snow White, of a girl thats as white as snow, hair as black as a raven and lips and red as blood, that is wanted killed by her Step mother the new Queen Ravenna (Charlize Theron). Snow White was played by that 'Twilight girl' Kristen Stewart who, in my opinion, is a terrible actress and is not beautiful as Snow White is supposed to be so that put a 'downer' on my opinion of this film already. But knowing I liked the looks of the trailer it looked a little worthy of watching. Also knowing that Chris Hemsworth as the hunter was in it, it redeemed itself, in which all I could think of was 'he's Thor in this too!' haha. Though it is a slightly re-imagied version with SnowWhite being more of a warrior (think of Tim Burton's version of Alice In Wonderland) and the huntsmen that was sent to kill Snowwhite in the original, is now a main character.

Anyway, with all that said they film was overall good. The CG I loved hehe and as I think we all know the story of Snow white it was easy to follow. I find the Charlize Theron played the Queen perfectly so I liked her the best! She really captured a 'fairytale' acting like we see in Disney films, with how she spoke and how dramatic she was...it was really good hehe...Chris Hemsworth as excepted acted good, however as mentioned before..her was very Thor like..but in a good way! I mean hey! He's meant to be an angry, manly, brute of a huntsman haha...Kristen Stewart, even though I will admit she was sooo much better than when she was in Twilight, and she actually gave some emphasis in how she spoke some lines, she was still pretty ridged in her acting, with facial expressions and movements which I think didn't represent Snow White very well as Snow white, as we all know, is meant to be very 'girly, exaggerated and a little over the top' haha....plus she is meant to be pretty.....I think I covered that earlier....So have I been won over to finding Kristen Stewart a good actress?? Nope.

Right overall the film is good. Not extraordinarily good, not amazing but literally just good. It wasn't terrible and there was nothing initially wrong with it, besides casting Kristen Stewart, but I think where Snow White has been done so many times over theres nothing new or exciting about it anymore besides improvements on CG and possible a slight re-imagine.

Hmm tell me what you thought of it in the comments below, Thank you for reading!! :D~
