G.I Joe (The Rise of the Cobra)

Let us start from the poster. Good poster, first glance, you would be confused about the two teams. The poster in the cinema theatre looks nice and elite (that what I would say looking at characters' attire - almost black). I wonder why almost all the action pack movie has the cover poaster of their characters in black attire. What is so special about black? I wonder...

Let me clarify here, the cinema I went was the Star Cineplex in Miri. there is a possibility my review (so called...) here is being influenced by the condition of the cinema theatre.

The movie... Overall is excellent. action pack performance. Good editing as the movie keep the audience in the momentum. The best after the Transformers 1. There are also some guest artiste such as Brendan Fraser. Story line starts from the time of King Henry until the future. The movie main theme is biological weapons. It is about how the trade of weapon goes on and how it influence the nation's security (of course, USA but this time also with France). It is also about the politics which takes place in the higher rank of political people and of course, none of the movie is complete with love story and bonding. LOVE SELLS!!!!.... It is rated as the 13PG since it is violent with the time of wars and their condition as the bombing taken place. The story revolves around the politics of the trade of weapon selling with the aim to control the whole world.

Overall, good movie and very worth watching in cinema theatre. It even worth buying the original DVD as it has its momentum there.

Curtin Volunteers (CV!) Sarawak chapter is a part of Curtin University of Technology, Sarawak Campus was started on the year of 2002. It is the largest student - run non-profit organization in Sarawak at this moment. Our main aim is to instill the spirit of volunteerism into our members. Our main activities throughout the year includes Blood Donation Drive, Used Clothes Campaign, John Curtin Charity Weekend, Beach Cleaning, CV! Gathering (Family Day) and any kind of fundraising event. Besides that, our main activity which was taking place for a few years is SOAR Advisor recruitment. SOAR (Student Orientation and Advisory Registration) Advisors are specially trained for the purpose of orientating the new students.
John Curtin Charity Weekend is our main activity as for the past a few years, we have been visiting this longhouses nearby. This is not only a fun activity, but also a learning experience as well as a golden charity moment for us. We learn about the cultures and traditions of the native people here in Sarawak which has the majority of the Ibans. This would be a very cherish moment especially for Curtin Sarawak's international students.
We are one of the main student run organization which do charity as our main purpose in Curtin Sarawak. We are looking foward for new members including the staffs. Our vision is to become the largest student-run non-profit organization in Malaysia.
