V^3 Movies: 300 [turbo review]
Yes, that's right, I'm reviewing 300 randomly with no explanation for the random absence. That explanation'll come in my other blog.
Moving along, I got around to seeing this movie last Friday and was speechless upon leaving the cinema. It was GOOD definitely, but there were just too many awe-inspiring moments visually to pick a favourite.
The movie 300 is not:
1. Intensely mentally stimulating
2. Historically accurate
3. Always tasteful
I won't give away too much but just don't expect an intense psychological thriller or an intense multi-layered tapestry of plot. Most of the movie is fan-service. (a la "Lets have awesome fight scenes!")
And 2 and 3 sort of come together in that there are a lot of freaks in this movie...
Does anyone think that Xerxes is some transvestite Dhalsim (taken from the IGN review)?
There are also a lot of unintentionally funny lines / scenes in the movie that take a perverted or extremely immature sense of humour to appreciate.
For what it is (a visually awesome spectacle of computer generated effects and macho war-cries), it does the job extremely well. If that sort of stuff floats your boat, go watch it NOW.
For those who've seen it already, I reveal to you this video. Don't watch it if you haven't seen the movie yet, cos it uses quite a lot of footage from the film. Enjoy:

V^3 Food Review: Mexicana Cantina, Bentley
Uni food normally consists of beer, pizza and my very favourite... Nachos!
So if you so happen to find yourself within the concrete jungle called Bentley campus, there is this little hidden cantina which sells authentic mexican food.
These nachos have some real substance to them. What makes these nachos so delectable is the composition of such a dish. You start of with the hot crispy nacho chips covered in an authentic tomato salsa with plenty of sour cream. Most places would stop there and call it a day. However, Mexicana Cantina takes it one step further by adding in real beef. The meat is the substance of this dish, with hearty chunks of beef that fall apart in your mouth, so tender and definately completes a once commonly bland food. This will always be a favourite of mine. Prices are quite resonable too, These nachos will set you back around $5.60
V^3 recommends eating nachos (or any other food) with a refreshing bottle of vitamilk.
