My Personal Experience: I went to Ancient Egypt at Universal Studious this year August 12, 2015, together with my brother's father-in-law. We went there to see what's in store for us and to be transport in ancient times. Beware when picking rides it may not be what you expect!

Director: Nancy Meyers
Cast: Robert De Niro , Anne Hathaway , Rene Russo , Adam DeVine , Reid Scott
Plot: Ben Whittaker is a 70-year-old successful business owner who has retired. Unused to retirement, Whittaker decides to get back in the game by becoming a senior intern at an online fashion website, founded and run by young and career-driven woman, Jules Ostin.


My Movie Review: The movie is heart-warming not your usual romantic comedy but worth to see and experience! Somewhat we can relate too whatever generation you may belong most those people who juggles to balance work and life relationships. This kind of movie that you can depend just passing through without much thinking just because it's about things we deal in life. At the end of the day it motivate you it's never too late to start again.
My Favorite Lines: "Retirement is an ongoing, relentless effort in creativity. You can try yoga, like to cook, bought some plants, took classes in Mandarin. Believe me, I've tried everything. I just know there's a hole in my life and I need to fill it... soon." "You started this business all by yourself a year and a half ago and now you have a staff of 220 people. Remember who did that." "The truth is, something about you makes me feel calm, more centered or something. I could use that, obviously." "I'm Ben Whittaker. I've got an appointment with Miss Ostin. I thought she was meeting with her new intern." "That's me."

My Movie Review: The movie is a good enough to watch not that great but not that worst. Maybe this could be the last transporter film in the series Transporter Refueled received mixed reviews but most were negative. This movie features a new transporter with four femme fatale on his side and his father being kidnap by some bad guys on the business. Expect car chasing, martial arts fighting, secondary characters dying and lots of shooting!
My Favorite Lines: "Technology moves fast, doesn't it. I mean, as soon as you think they can't come up with something, they come up with something else. Makes you wonder if guys like me will be out of a job. No, people always need guys like me, right? " "You think this is the first time somebody's held a gun to my head? ... You're going to make me late and I hate being late." Your clients have stolen from me. That's not my problem. It is now."

Director: Guy Ritchie
Cast: Henry Cavill , Armie Hammer , Alicia Vikander , Elizabeth Debicki , Hugh Grant
Plot: Based on the 1964 MGM television series of the same name, the movie is set against the backdrop of the early 1960s period of the Cold War. Two U.N.C.L.E. agents, Napoleon Solo and Illya Kuryakin, team up on a mission to stop a mysterious international criminal organisation. Their only lead is the daughter of a vanished German scientist, who is the key to infiltrating the criminal organisation. They must race against time to find him and prevent a worldwide catastrophe.


My Movie Review: The movie is a cold war genre told in a cool action sophisticated way. The Man From U.N.C.L.E is hard and soft, mighty and slick, physical and personal in style. Henry Cavill and Armie Hammer made a great match America teaming up with Russia not a bad idea. Who knew The Long Ranger can get along with Superman? Alicia Vikander and Elizabeth Debicki maybe new on the big screen but they surely bring the house down.
My Favorite Term: U.N.C.L.E.

U.N.C.L.E. is an acronym for the fictional United Network Command for Law and Enforcement, a secret international intelligence agency featured in the TV series in 1960's produced in the United States.
