the last song
top billed by miley cyrus.
movie adaptation from a book
by nicholas sparks

the plot was good.

the last song is about the life of a misunderstood and rebellious teenager pained by her parent's divorce. her life changed after her mother sent her to his father's house to spend summer. veronica met will. she learned that her dad is sick and is dying so she decided to spend it with her dad. it was heavy drama and i'm not a fan of sad movies. i wish they could've picked a better actress to play the role of veronica like lindsay shaw for instance.



and the most gruesome award goes to ninja assassin. best phrase to describe this flick? there will be blood.

Raizo lost her special friend Kiriko because she attempted to escape the training facility. she was persecuted in front of him. years later, raizo turned against the clan and attempted to kill Lord Ozunu, their master.  Europol agent Mika Coretti (Naomie Harris) was tasked to investigate money-linked political murders, and found that they are connected to the Clan. She defies her superior, Ryan Maslow (Ben Miles), and retrieves secret agency files to find out more about the investigation. Mika met Raizo and convinced him to see Maslow for protection as well as to provide evidence against the Clan. But Raizo is later set-up by Maslow, and abducted by agents from Europol for interrogation. Although feeling betrayed, Mika is assured by Maslow that he is still on her side and gives her a tracking device for emergencies. The Ozunu ninjas infiltrate the Europol headquarters in an attempt to kill Raizo and everybody inside. Mika frees Raizo and they both manage to escape, but Raizo suffers near mortal wounds. Mika then takes him to a hotel. Resting in a motel, Mika implants the tracking device into Raizo, as the ninjas remain in pursuit. Unable to fend against the Clan, she hides outside the motel until Special Forces arrive to help her. By the time they arrive though, the ninjas have already kidnapped Raizo, bringing him before Lord Ozunu for prosecution. Europol special forces and tactical teams led by Maslow storm the secluded Ozunu retreat nestled in the mountains using the tracking device on Raizo. Raizo and Lord Ozunu confront each other in a sword duel. Mika interferes to help, but is stabbed by Lord Ozunu. Enraged, Raizo uses a 'shadow blending' technique for the first time to distract and kill Lord Ozunu. Mika, seemingly fatally wounded, is in fact saved by a quirk of birth-–her heart is actually on the opposite side of her chest. Raizo later climbs the same wall Kiriko did while trying to escape in the past, and looks out at the surrounding countryside. He then recognizes his freedom for the first time. (Wikipedia)
