2 in 1 means that me and dear dear watched 2 movies on 1 day at the cinemas.
Actually, we had no plans for going to the movies that day.
We were just sending Jessica back to Ipoh as she said she will pay.
And since we were at Ipoh, so I said why don't we watch a movie.
We reached Jusco at 2.54pm, looked at the screen and it was showing that most of the movie time was at 5 something, the only movie available at that time was The Expendables which was showing on 3pm.
As it was weekdays so there were not much people and thats why even at a last minute we still managed to get last row tickets. xD
So we quickly bought our tickets and popcorns and headed for the movie.
The Expendables is a hard-hitting action/thriller about a group of mercenaries hired to infiltrate a South American country and overthrow its ruthless dictator. Once the mission begins, the men realize things aren't quite as they appear, finding themselves caught in a dangerous web of deceit and betrayal. With their mission thwarted and an innocent life in danger the men struggle with an even tougher challenge, one that threatens to destroy this band of brothers. The film stars many famous actors such as Sylvester Stallone, Jet Li , Jason Statham and so on.
To me this movie was quite exciting at the beginning.
But in the middle is was quite boring.
I rate it 6/10
After the movie me and dear dear was going to leave.
But he saw that my face was not satisfied so he said: "Lets watch The Last Airbender also."
I immediately said: "Sure. Lets go! :)"
We were again lucky that we didn't need to wait.
As the next movie was at 5pm and the time at that time was 4.52pm.
Bought the tickets and went in.
The Last Airbender is a live-action film adaptation based on the first season of the animated television series Avatar: The Last Airbender. The movie is about the world is divided into four kingdoms, each represented by the element they harness, and peace has lasted throughout the realms of Water, Air, Earth, and Fire under the supervision of the Avatar, a link to the spirit world and the only being capable of mastering the use of all four elements. When young Avatar Aang disappears, the Fire Nation launches an attack to eradicate all members of the Air Nomads to prevent interference in their future plans for world domination. 100 years pass and current Fire Lord Ozai continues to conquer and imprison anyone with elemental "bending" abilities in the Earth and Water Kingdoms, while siblings Katara and Sokka from a Southern Water Tribe find a mysterious boy trapped beneath the ice outside their village. Upon rescuing him, he reveals himself to be Aang, Avatar and last of the Air Nomads. Swearing to protect the Avatar, Katara and Sokka journey with him to the Northern Water Kingdom in his quest to master "Waterbending" and eventually fulfill his destiny of once again restoring peace to the world. But as they inch nearer to their goal, the group must evade Prince Zuko, the exiled son of Lord Ozai, Commander Zhao, the Fire Nation's military leader, and the tyrannical onslaught of the evil Fire Lord himself. The movie stars Noah Ringer, Dev Patel, Nicola Peltz and so on.
To me this movie was better than The Expendables.
But some of my friends said the opposite.
I rate it 8/10
