The movie surpassed my expectation! There's romance, comedy, drama, action, suspense all packed in one great film! I cried at the touching moments, laughed so hard during the funny scenes, felt tensed when the herd faced the various (dangerous) dinosaurs. Although Scrat and Scratte are not related to the rescue of Cid (main part of the story), the pair made the movie just as much interesting. The lines were extremely witty and funny. The sound effects and background music perfectly enhanced the movie experience! This is definitely a must-watch! My family and I are planning to watch it again! (:

What I loved most: Scene in the cave, Humour
What I really hated: Too much conversations, unnecessary scenes, unfortunate ending
***CONTAINS SPOILER*** I did NOT read any of the HP books - yet, but I just might after watching this because I didn't feel the "essence" of the storyline at all. I detested the ending with Dumbledore's death. It seemed like the "bad guys" managed to enter, kill Dumbledore, destroy the school then, as easily, leave (using "escape" wouldn't be appropriate as there didn't seem to be anything to block them from leaving after the destruction they left behind). Many unnecessary scenes, boring conversations, etc. I was utterly disappointed. The only action I felt worthy of mentioning is the one at the cave. How could this movie possibly be classified as "Genre: Action" I wonder! However, there was more humour in this installment to keep you from hating this entirely. At the end of the movie, my reaction was "What... That's it?!" I don't understand why there was the need to focus so much on BGR, and when did Dean break up with Ginny? I think I missed that.. o.O Sigh. Hopefully the next HP movie wouldn't be as horrible as this one..

What I loved most: Sudden twist in the story
What I really hated: Poor acting by Nao Minamisawa, some scenes were too dramatic
***CONTAINS SPOILER*** Initially, I was lost in the complexity of the storyline but as the story developed, I started to grasp the understanding of what's going on. As I try to draw my conclusions on how Mei was related to Atsushi's mother, I was shocked when the truth unveiled. I found Nao's acting to be very unconvincing and lack of emotion. Like when she saw Sara Nakagawa jump off the building or when she saw the possessions of Riku Takahashi (knowing he was dead). I didn't watch the drama but I hope it wasn't as bad as this. The scene which struck me most memorable was that Taka escaped death by a mere distance yet unfortunately turning to escape, he got hit by the next car. It made me realise how luck can run out in the next second. The ending wasn't pleasant as it was sort of inconclusive imo. Overall, I think it's still worth watching - some really touching scenes (:

What I loved most: Chad & Troy at the garage scene
What I really hated: Read my review .
The beginning of the show was pretty much messy. It gave me the feeling that it wasn't organised very well. As the movie proceeds, I felt that the storyline got weaker and weaker, whereas the songs became more frequent. Although it is indeed a musical but I'm very disappointed that it being released as a movie , it did not really "make the cut" in my opinion. Some of the characters were very much annoying and redundant. Meanwhile, the main cast did not seem to have strong roles to display their characters clearly, unlike in HSM 1 & 2. Viewers who did not watch HSM 1 & 2 would not understand much about the importance & impact of basketball in Troy's life, how he is so closely connected to Chad. Whatever happened to Zeke and Sharpay? ==" What is the significance of the annoying "Rocketman"? I truly felt that it was a waste of time for Gabriella to travel back and forth and the scene where she calls Troy from Stamford - the "painful goodbye" was not effective enough to cast me to tears! If she is that important to everyone at East High (as stated by Troy), they should've created a better, more effective atmosphere for the scene.
I absolutely detest the whole wardrobe of Gabriella's for this movie! Gosh. WHAT'S WITH ALL THE LOW-CUT NECKLINE REVEALING HER VERY FULL BOOBS!! ==" I'm sure most people already know how she looks beneath all the clothes from the huge commotion over her nude photo scandal. I really don't get it. AND Chad hugged her at her boobs, Troy hugs her at the boobs. What's up with that? .

What I loved most: Visuals and dialogue
Everyone knows Will Smith for his ability to make you laugh till your sides hurt! This is no different ^^ His acting never falls short of expectations. It's really interesting to watch a clumsy & childish hero transform into a mature superhero with a suit! It was a very unexpected twist when Charlize Theron appears to have the same (if not better) ability as him! The last few scenes were really touching and a great ending - "Batman inspired" scene. All in all, I truly enjoyed this movie, definitely a must-watch!

What I loved most: Storyline
Omg it's so funny! I truly enjoyed this film. Alot of very real emotions were portrayed beautifully by the voice-actors and visuals! It was a unique and utterly cute show. I was tearing from laughter and also from one very touching scene ;x This show reminds me a little of the Forbidden Kingdom where the main character is a huge fan of martial arts and knows the moves - yet doesn't have the understanding of implementing it. This big panda is similar in that sense except he implements the moves unconsciously, especially when it is part of the process for obtaining food. I love the "moral of the story": Believe in yourself~ That is the secret ^^
