Movie Trailers/Scenes:


At A Glance(Netflix):

Dangerous missions are the bread and butter of the Thunderbirds, a high-tech secret force employed by the government. Led by Jeff Tracy (Bill Paxton), the Thunderbirds are at the top of their game, but their nemesis, The Hood (Ben Kingsley), has landed on their island and is attempting a coup by using the team's rescue vehicles. He'll soon discover that the Thunderbirds won't go down without a fight. Co-stars Anthony Edwards and Brady Corbet.

1) Likes (+1) - i like all the thunderbird machines and the fact that they have specific reasons for each and every thunderbirds. for example, thunderbird 5, orbits the earth and acts as a satellite from Olympus. I like the concept of colors associated to each thunderbirds the likes of power rangers, RED 1! Green 2! Blue 3! Yellow 4! Pink 5! but in this movie they dont blurt out their numbers and colors. Just like any other heroes, they also have a side kick. I think Lady Penelope was a unique side kick for our main characters.

2) Dislikes (+1) - None

3) Character/Actors (+1) - Vanessa Hudgens was in this movie and she was still young. (ahaha - not relevant). the character i most like is Lady Penelope and Parker. She looks sexy and elegant but she knows how to be fierce and fight. Parker on the other hand is the assistant of Lady Penelope that also has some tricks under his sleeves.

4) Overall (+1)
- i like the movie as a whole even though there weren't really scenes that are memorable. if i was younger, it would appeal more to me coz i like these kind of movies way back them. although, i would still love it today but id be more discriminating. there is a good mix of action and comedy.

Purrfect to watch on: (+0.5) just rent it

Can you afford to miss this movie? (+ 0.5) maybe

Favorite Scenes (+1)
1) when Lady Penelope picked up the boys from school to go to Olympus. Everyone was starring and mesmerized by the pink automobile.

2) Alan was cornered by the hood, and the villain thought he got them, however they were able to manage to aim at the switch (behind the hood) and escaped.
3) the scorpion scene where tintin's power was revealed
4) they need a wire for the transmitter and they took it off to as where you see on the picture
5) when our little heroes was finally awarded with thunderbirds badges. thunderbirds are go!
