(2020) The Swordsman - Cool Martial Arts Movie with Some Amazing Swords Fights Scenes

After a while not checking on new films on TVN Movies channel, I decided to find out few days ago. Then I saw this movie which already premiered on 2 January 2021. The movie itself was released in Indonesian cinemas since October 2020 and as my wife and I were still not comfortable going to the cinemas due to the pandemic, we skipped it and hoping for it to be released on TV soon (which it did). Anyway, enough of that and I'll just get to the good part.

Brief Story Line

Tae-yul (Jang Hyuk - Volcano High, Windstruck etc) said to be the best swordsman in Joseon (kingdom of Korea) had retired and living with his daughter Tae-ok (Kim Hyun-soo - Solomon's Perjury TV series etc) in the mountains. When Tae-yul's eyesight became worse due to previous injury, both of them went to town looking for medicines. However, the Qing dynasty of China led by their representative, the great martial artist Gurutai (Joe Taslim - Warrior TV series, Hit & Run etc) and his group of thugs were wreaking havoc and sadly Tae-yul and Tae-ok were caught in the middle. 

(TV SERIES) Lupin Part One - A Highly Recommended Series based on Popular French Character, Arsène Lupin the Gentleman Thief

Actually I have watched the first part of this series few days ago and at first I wanted to reserve my opinion until the second part is released mid of this year. But then again, I could not hold myself from writing as I have quite strong opinion about the series. Anyway, why don't I just go straight to it.

Brief Story Line

Assane Diop (Omar Sy - Inferno, The Call of the Wild etc) was a professional thief who had his eyes on a long lost necklace belonging to Hubert Pellegrini (Hervé Pierre) which was being auctioned and shown by Hubert's daughter Juliette (Clotilde Hesme). Apparently there was a reason for Assane to aim for that specific necklace. He himself was inspired by the character of gentleman thief Arsène Lupin from the book given by Assane's late father Babakar Diop (Fargass Assandé). 

Wonder Woman 1984 - Might not be as Great as its Predecessor but Still Pretty Entertaining

Finally this movie could be watched officially on our small screen after Catchplay+ platform released it yesterday through single video rental. I thought it was a really smart move to capture new subscribers who wanted to watch this film without the worry of having to go out to public places like the cinema and mall. Anyway, I believe we should just be thankful that such option is available. OK, let's start with the movie now.

Brief Story Line

Set in the year 1984, Diana Prince (Gal Gadot - Ralph Breaks the Internet, Fast and Furious movies etc) was now working at Smitshonian Institution where she befriended a geologist named Barbara Minerva (Kristen Wiig - Despicable Me 3, Downsizing etc). Secretly though, Diana as Wonder Woman still trying to do heroic deeds. Due to some mystical reasons, Steve Trevor (Chris Pine - Star Trek Beyond, Unstoppable etc) who has been dead for many years somehow miraculously came back to life which made Diana so delighted, although it came at such a high price.
