Review Kungfu Panda 3

Film ini juga memiliki karakter antagonis baru, yaitu arwah pendekar jahat yang turun ke dunia demi bisa menyedot energi seluruh pendekar. Ancaman dari sosok bernama Kai tersebut, membawa Po kepada petualangan baru yang semakin menambah pengalamannya.

Dilihat dari judulnya, sudah bukan rahasia lagi bahwa Kung Fu Panda 3 mengangkat kaum panda sebagai fokus utama cerita. Di sini, Po tak hanya bertemu ayah kandungnya dan keluarga panda untuk pertama kali. Po juga dituntut menjadi pembimbing kaumnya ketika Kai semakin merajalela.

Seperti biasa, suara atau dubbing Jack Black sebagai Po mampu membawa penonton bernostalgia kembali dengan film pertama dan kedua. Peran Bryan Cranston yang mengisi suara sebagai ayah Po juga mampu mengimbangi Jack Black. Alhasil, kedua karakter tampak semakin menggemaskan ketika mereka bertemu.

Pergerakan alur cerita dalam film ini tidak lambat dan membosankan. Setiap rangkaian adegan selalu menyuguhkan bumbu humor dan drama yang diakhiri dengan konklusi yang pas. Sehingga tidak ada adegan yang bertele-tele dan memutar otak.

Beberapa adegan laga juga disajikan dengan sangat menarik dan menyegarkan. Alhasil, kita tak hanya melihat pertarungan kung fu biasa, tetapi juga mimik serta gerakan karakter yang terlihat alami khas Kung Fu Panda.

Namun cukup disayangkan juga beberapa momen menegangkan tampak dibungkus dengan kurang pas. Contohnya, ketika Kai bertemu dengan karakter tertentu. Apa yang dilakukan tokoh ini, bisa jadi terasa mengurangi watak bengis Kai yang seolah dijanjikan di pembukaan film.

Sebetulnya, penulis naskah Jonathan Aibel dan Glenn Berger bisa mencari cara lain agar Kai tampak lebih mengerikan di mata penonton tanpa mengorbankan nuansa ceria yang menjadi ciri khas Kung Fu Panda. Untungnya, watak unik Kai di sepanjang film ini tak terlalu merusak alur ceritanya.

Beberapa adegan flashback yang ditampilkan lewat animasi kasar juga seolah mengulang kembali apa yang ditampilkan di film pertama. Alhasil, masa lalu Po dan keluarganya masih menyisakan berbagai hal yang kurang tergali secara mendalam.

Tak hanya itu, di sini perkembangan Po dari awal film hingga menjelang klimaks, ditampilkan terlalu drastis. Karena itu, perjuangan Po menjadi pendekar yang sangat kuat terkesan sangat instan.

Tingkah laku para panda di film ini tampak alami dan menggemaskan, mengundang gelak tawa bagi penyuka film animasi dan hewan. Hanya saja, kehadiran mereka seperti 'menggusur' peran lima pendekar yang tergabung dalam Furious Five. Kelimanya jadi terasa kurang berarti, dan hal ini berpotensi mengecewakan para penggemar lima karakter tersebut.

Secara keseluruhan, Kung Fu Panda 3 sangat cocok menjadi hiburan penyegar otak usai bertaburnya film-film nominasi Oscar 2016 yang masih menjadi perbincangan. Kung Fu Panda 3 juga sangat sesuai ditonton anak-anak meskipun karakteristik Kai berpotensi membuat mereka ketakutan.

Momen-momen mengharukan yang melibatkan unsur kekeluargaan antara Po dan kedua ayahnya, dikemas dengan gaya yang khas. Sehingga bagi yang ingin mengajak keluarganya menonton film di bioskop, Kung Fu Panda 3 menjadi pilihan yang sangat tepat.

Review Batman Vs Superman Dawn of Justice

Review Film Batman v Superman

Setelah bertahun-tahun menunggu, akhirnya film Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice bisa saya nikmati di bioskop dengan suasana gegap gempita. Bagi sebagian orang, film ini bak Star Wars: The Force Awakens yang sakral untuk sejumlah ‘umatnya’. Mereka rela menunggu sekian lama agar kisah dan karakter favoritnya dapat muncul lagi di layar lebar, begitu pula Batman v Superman, yang sangat dinanti-nanti walau akhirnya tak berhasil memuaskan semua pihak.

Film Superhero yang Tak Sempurna

Dengan durasi 151 menit, film yang digadang sebagai film superhero terbaik ini tak cukup sempurna dari segi kompleksitas plot ataupun penyajian cerita. Bagi yang belum menonton film Man of Steel, rasanya sulit untuk menelan semua kisah sebab-akibat yang ada di tiap bagian sekuens film ini. Ada banyak kejadian yang kurang dijelaskan dan bahkan terlalu cepat untuk bergeser ke masalah selanjutnya. Entah ini kesalahan Snyder, atau naskah yang digunakan, tapi yang pasti keutuhan cerita di film Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice  masih kalah jauh jika dibandingkan dengan The Dark Knight  arahan Christopher Nolan.  Beruntung, nantinya akan ada versi director’s cut film ini dalam format Blu-Ray dengan selisih durasi cukup besar dari versi theatrical-nya. Sepotong harapan saya berada di sana, karena elemen cerita yang terlalu padat dan dipaksakan inilah kelemahan terbesar film Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice.

Secara keseluruhan, film yang diproduksi dengan budget $250 juta atau setara Rp 3.3 triliun ini sangat seru untuk ditonton. Saya sendiri larut dalam alur ceritanya yang penuh aksi brutal dan pertarungan dahsyat hingga melupakan lamanya waktu berjalan. Momen ‘wow’ yang disajikan pun tak sedikit, bahkan terbilang banyak. Bagi yang merasa ‘dilecehkan’ dengan spoiler di trailer-nya, jangan khawatir, karena masih banyak elemen penting dalam film ini yang masih bisa dinikmati secara fresh. Namun jika anda ingin menonton film ini di bioskop, maka saya anjurkan untuk terlebih dahulu menonton film Man of Steel. Ini penting, karena sang manusia baja tak lagi dikisahkan secara mendalam di film Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice, begitu juga dengan Lois Lane dan kisah cinta antara mereka berdua. Dua hal baru tentang Superman yang diperlihatkan di film ini hanyalah seputar masalah emosi dan kelemahan fisik sang manusia baja.

Batman v Superman adalah ajang pembuktian Ben Affleck yang sempat diragukan sebagai pemeran Batman. Ia tampil begitu apik, meskipun porsi yang diberikan tak sebesar Christian Bale dalam trilogi Batman. Menurut saya, tak cukup untuk membandingkan Christian Bale dengan Ben Affleck hanya dengan satu film ini. Saya optimis jika nantinya film solo Batman yang diperankan oleh Ben Affleck telah dibuat, kita akan terperangah dan berhenti membandingkannya dengan Bale. Ini cuma masalah porsi dan kedalaman cerita yang berbeda, atau mungkin gaya penyutradaraan yang berbeda. Sedikit spoiler, Batman di film ini jauh lebih ganas dan brutal jika dibandingkan dengan versi Nolan.

Selain cerita yang tak utuh, satu hal lagi yang menggangu saya di film Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice  adalah karakter Lex Luthor yang diperankan oleh Jesse Eisenberg. Mungkin sebagian dari anda tak setuju, tapi bagi saya Jesse Eisenberg tak bisa memberikan kesan yang berbeda dalam film ini, ia lagi-lagi tampil dengan karakter andalannya yang serba tau dan licik. Tokoh Lex Luthor pun sekilas mirip seperti Joker, hanya saja kemasannya dibentuk lebih halus dan sopan. Singkat kata, Lex Luthor bukanlah tokoh spesial dalam film ini.

Dari semua karakter, yang paling mencuri perhatian di film ini adalah sosok Wonder Woman yang diperankan oleh Gal Gadot. Meskipun dulunya sempat diragukan, nyatanya ia berhasil menjadi pusat atensi dengan paras cantik serta aksi memukau yang ia tampilkan. Karakter Wonder Woman yang ia perankan pun tersaji dengan porsi yang pas, tak kurang dan tak terlalu berlebihan. Bagi mayoritas kaum Adam, Wonder Woman versi Gal Gadot adalah main reason mengapa film Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice pantas untuk ditonton.

Bicara soal visual, Batman v Superman benar-benar dikemas dengan gaya otentik Zack Snyder. Pergerakan kamera, komposisi gambar, serta cut-to-cut yang ditampilkan membuat saya teringat dengan film Sucker Punch arahannya yang dirilis tahun 2011 lalu. Gaya khas Zack Snyder ini kemudian dibalut dengan unsur dark yang kental dengan karakteristik film DC. Tone warna yang kelam, serta banyaknya adegan slow motion menjadikan Batman v Superman tampak lebih mudah untuk dinikmati oleh kalangan dewasa. Sebuah perpaduan yang tepat dan kontras jika dibandingkan dengan gaya Josh Whedon bersama Marvel yang ringan dan cukup mudah dicerna.

Berpindah ke bagian musik, saya harus mengangkat topi lagi untuk Hans Zimmer. Tensi yang tinggi, dan suasana mencekam berhasil ia sajikan dengan sangat presisi dan tepat sasaran. Bagi saya, Hans Zimmer adalah penyelamat Zack Snyder, karena jika saja bukan dirinya, mungkin film ini akan sangat terasa hambar dan tidak menarik. Sama seperti Man of Steel yang begitu menggugah, Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice cukup intense untuk meningkatkan adrenalin saya. Terlebih lagi ketika munculnya Wonder Woman dengan distorsi yang sangat fantastis.

Jika ditilik lebih detail lagi maka Batman v Superman adalah film pembuka untuk kisah DCEU lainnya. Untuk itu, jangan menaruh harapan besar terhadap film ini meskipun pada dasarnya Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice adalah film yang sangat nikmat untuk disantap. Jika Man of Steel adalah pintu masuk rumah, maka Batman v Superman adalah salam pembuka yang hangat, namun belum cukup untuk mengenal karakter sang empunya rumah. Kita akan diajak lebih dalam untuk mengenal universe DC ini dengan film Suicide Squad, Wonder Woman, Justice League Part 1, dan sejumlah film lainnya dalam beberapa tahun mendatang.

Timeline yang disajikan dalam DCEU pun tak linear seperti MCU, karena harusnya sebelum ada Batman v Superman ini kita sudah mengenal sang Batman lebih dalam sama seperti Superman dengan film Man of Steelnya. Namun nampaknya DC ingin menciptakan timeline universe dengan gaya yang berbeda. Ibaratnya, kita disajikan makanan pembuka yang asing di mulut namun terasa nikmat di santapan pertama.

Sekali lagi, meskipun Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice adalah film yang bagus, namun janganlah anda terlalu berharap dengan film ini sebelum menontonnya di bioskop. Layaknya logo yang tersemat di dada Superman, harapan yang tinggi bisa menjatuhkan anda jauh lebih keras dan menyakitkan.

Best Guitar Brands

Gibson
The Best Guitar is not in price but in model it's a tip the heavy wood makes the guitar heavier so I think this is the bestM+299
The best guitar tone ever comes from a Gibson Les Paul. The heavy wood makes the tone rich and full, and if you replace the pickups with some nice bareknuckles, you have the best guitar ever. Period.M+264
Greatest guitar company of all time. It is simply, awesome. The rich tones when its on clear, and the amazing rock crunch when you flip on the overdrive. I have many Les Pauls, and they are the best. I have both a 1958, and 1959 burst colors and they are amazing. I also end a few stratocasters, they suck compared to my Les Pauls!


Fender
I have a fender too its great I giving one for free to someone if you wont give me a callM+564
Give me a call. I'm from Alberta, Canada and I would love to own an American Fender guitar 403.795.4610M+17
I'm really not into the whole gibson vs. Fender thing, I've just been exposed more to fender and its great, but I should probably familiarize myself more with gibson as well. But I just really like fender. Stratocasters, telecaster are idealM+166
My guitar teacher has a fender and everything about it is beautiful from the sound to the look. Gibson vs Fender. Fender all the way.M+118
Fender is the best in the world


Ibanez
Best brand in price/quality relation. I have 4 guitars, an epiphone explorer goth made on korea, and Jackson KV2 made on usa and 2 ibanez. RG320PG P2 and a RGT6EX, both made on indonesia. The first one is the cheaper, but the sustaine, action a comfort is very nice for a bugget guitar. I've played bugget guitars of other brands, and ibanez is far superior. In fact, my RG320 P2 is nice as some others guitars that cost twice of it price. Mi RGT6EX is excellent, to me must worth $1000 USD but the real price is close $800 USD or less.
My epi is very nice (Almost like a gibson for 1/3 of a gibson price) and obviously, my Jackson is far superior than my other guitars. But I'm just have mid end ibanez guitars and they are very good guitars. The high end ibanez are awesome and worth less than high ends of other brands in most cases having with the same quality (or superior in very cases).
Very nice sound for those who like to play hard rock or metal. It has got a very nice clean sound as well. Ibanez is the guitar I use mainly, and will keep using. Of course fender and gibson are the kings. But the ibanez guitars are not too expensive good for beginners and for the professionals!M+66
Great guitar brand. Not as expensive as gibson but same qualityM+70
Best tone, best quality, best price. Period.


Paul Reed Smith
PRS makes some of the best guitars in the world. Who ever made this list is insane, PRS should be right after gibson. They're better than fender. Go to a guitar center and try one! - mikepiazza06119M+63
How is PRS 12? Most pro's have switched from Gibson to PRS, or from any brand to PRS for that matter. Go to any guitar store and put ANY PRS against any high end guitar and see for yourself. "Ibanhad" should be taken off this list, and all these 3rd rate walmart brands should be removed as well. How are there brands on the bottom of this list that don't even produce guitars?M+38
This is hands down THE BEST brand there is! Trust me, I've been playing guitar since I was a kid. I've had used, owned, and tried every guitar there is. Gibson is NO WAY better than PRS, the sound quality of a PRS is awesome! They are pretty light, the designs are awesome as well, although PRS is a bit more expensive than your average guitar it is worth every penny! Gibson's are way too over priced and would never match the PRS. I used to own a gibson sg and lp, and I sold them after I had my own PRS. If you really know the difference between a good and a great guitar you would pick PRS over any other brand. Period.


Epiphone
I have a limited edition epiphone les paul custom plus and it looks exactly like a gibsonM+68
Lets face it they rock! I've got an epiphone, I've had it for ages and it just works. Great tone and playability. I'm getting another one, I've got a les paul and am getting an sg. Epiphone all the way!M+45
I have a epiphone sg 50th edition and it does great by me in all I do. I play a lot of 60's music and otherwise all I want. It's very versatile and not to mention the cherry red wood grain finish makes it looks really awesome. Everyone I've ever met has bragged on it and I've been offered all kinds of guitars from Washburns to fenders. Just recently I went to a old guitar player of 30 yearsiin my grandfathers neighborhood and he absolutely loved the tone and playability. He said the only thing it might need to make it better was a professional setup which I'll soon be getting. When I first got it I complained a lot that the strings were a bit harder to push down due to the longer scale of the neck (the neck on it is pretty long) however. If you' work with it for about 2 days off and on its no problem. I love epiphone and judging from what I've played in ibanez guitars I might soon invest in one of them.M+28
Epiphone make very professional instrument at affordable prices


Jackson
Jackson make very nice, fast and great looking guitars. To me, jackson's have both of to universes, the elegance and the aggressive look at the same time. For example, take a audi, a mercedez and a bmw. Gibson is like bmw, mercedez like fender (or perhaps old cadillacs) and jackson is like and audi, aggressive and elegant.
But not all is good. The well made jackson guitars are expensive, the cheaper ones are very bad guitars. In case of ibanez, to me is the best brand if you talk about quality vs price.M+45
The only reason why anyone likes Ibanez is because it's cheap. When you're ready to buy a real axe, get a Jackson. Ibanez is not a "shredder" brand, it is a budget brand, just like Carvin. Jackson has it all: great sound, great feel, great looks, great for shredding! I'll admit because Rich makes some interesting looking guitars, but Jacksons are still cooler (if you've ever seen a Kelly, I'm sure you'll agree). Jackson For the Win!M+28
I think jackson (particularly the USA models) are truly the most versatile of all the high end electric guitars. The build quality is second to none as they are made at the custom shop by very experienced luthiers, the woods used are exotic and tonally superb. The hardware is the best around Floyd rose/ Seymour Duncan's and the action/playability is fantastic. All in all you feel although expensive, you feel like you're getting your monies worth. But the great thing is that they produce an incredible array of sounds which covers all aspects of musical style from the beefed up classic grind of a Gibson, to the stringy percussive violin sounds of a start and everything in between. The USA ones are expensive but I have 2 (an sl 1 and sl 2) and given the enjoyment and reliability they have given me, they owe me nothing.M+10
Jackson is way better than ibanez.



ESP
Way better than fender for metal than a fender will ever be! The quality of a ESP gives really good rifts and a nice and clean fret board so your fingers don't have to stretch so far plus they have an amazing tone to it with both distortion and non distortionM+49
High power, fast playing, easy to pick up. I love the playing quality and simple beauty of the body!M+42
ESP Is simply the best brand you could ever use, from it's awesome quality ESP too their good quality/price relation with LTD. You can use an LTD distressed series for playing classic rock, for blues also, and the Xtone series make their work too, and from their LTD standard and deluxe series to their ESP standard and signature series for the best and widest range of metal you could ever imagine, with them you can from Black Sabbath or Ozzy Osbourne, to Metallica and Children of Bodom. (Kirk Hammett, James Hetfield, Alexi Laiho, Henkka, Michael Paget, Gus G, Tom Araya, Jeff Hanneman and almost any Japanese guitar and bass player that is considered good [Seriously, without exaggerations or lying] endorses ESP guitars and basses).M+27
These guitars are just, metal.



Yamaha
You really get the most out of your money with Yamaha. A very reliable brand. Even the low range guitar guitars like the Yamaha erg121uc2g are Brilliant.M+137
I have a yamaha sg 1000 like Carlos Santana's. It rocks! I tried it with a Gibson sg of the same price and it didn't match the quality. Then I tried a Les Paul Gibson about one and a half grand more, even that wasn't as good as the sg 1000. Lets face it, the Japanese (this does include Ibanez for they are awesome too) kick ass when it comes to quality and price!
I have a yamaha SG 1000, bought it for $2100 (stock prive 2500)(aus and after haggling) and also tested gibsons from the same price range. From that I found out that although the quality of gibson is good, it's way too over priced especially comparing my sg to a les paul at $4000 that is not even as good as my sg.
Secondly, this is Japanese, need I say more? Japanese are all ways known for cheap electrical products however they're also the most RELIABLE products that's why customer support is a not needed thing.
Thirdly, yamaha has been known for musical instruments for a long long time and is the biggest producer of musical instruments. On its logo, it has got two tuning pegs meaning unlike any other musical brand, it is the most diverse. The only reason that people say fenders and gibsons are better is because they were the original makers of contempory electric guitars and the fact that they're well known. So basically, all you're paying for is the badge.


Taylor
I have a taylor and it is much better than my gibson. The sound is clearer, the guitar looks better, it is very easy to play, and it is affordable for what you pay for. This should be the best guitar brand should be at this top of the list but I dunno what people these people are thinkingM+47
The only reason why the other guitars are ahead is that they have never played a taylor, I have three different brands of guitar and am most pleased with the Taylor. Just go to a music retailer and test one out, you will not be dissapointed.M+29
Taylors have a "happier" sound and I like the feel of them. I am a novice but from what I have seen for a beginner with an acoustic guitar, they felt and sounded warmer and less tinny than the laminated wood ones. A good rosewood taylor isn't on the cheap side of things but it feels like you can play better than you can. And the model I looked at had strings that were nice and close to the frets so you didn't feel like you were pushing in deep like the keys of an old typerwriter. Go into a Guitar Center or somewhere you can actually feel what you are getting before you buy anything. I got a cheap Gibson online less than a month ago and got what I paid for when it came with the bridge completely missing and a brassy sound when it was played. Buy your stuff in person. I think that Gibson is probably still a good brand, but the quality control of the cheaper models they put their name on is something I might question from my first experience with them...
They are light, they sound amazing! And easy to play!


B.C. Rich
Meatyest, heavyest... Coolest looking guitar ever made. I own a mocking bird proX in black for $1500 but I got a discount for only $800. Everyone should be using this. Nothing can top this. It's almost never breaks and hard to give scratches. It's worth every penny.M+24
I got a eagle arch top its a beautiful mahogany neck through with great pickups for heavy and light toned my friend has a $2000 Gibson guitar and my neck feels way better and I only paid $800 this company honestly needs way more credit I suggest if you see a eagle archtop or any other because rich guitar try it out!M+19
B.C. Rich. Mick use to get sponsored by them, in lamb of gods dvd terror and hubris lamb of god uses some asms and some biches, awesome shapes such as. Bich, warlock, beast v, and more. Used by heaps of death metal guitarists, awesome widow headstock, awesome pointy headstock, and the cheap ones are very good considering the price.
Mine has a great sound and can play great harmonics .
