Recommended :

1. Christina Aguilera - We Remain
I love Christina Aguilera's voice in here. As usual, she has a great and strong voice character that suit well "FIRE" character of Katniss Everdeen, hehehe. Fyi, this is my favourite song :)

"To burn me with fire, to drown me with rain. I'm gonna wake up, screaming your name.

Whatever happens here, we remain."

2. Ellie Goulding - Mirror
Don't think this is Mirror - Justin Timberlake's cover. It's really different, hahaa. I love this song, it brings peaceful to me. I thought about one scene in Catching Fire while listening to this one. It suits well with the scene of Peeta and Katniss at the seaside. Oh, and just seeing the lyrics below, you also can remember about the scene of Katniss' dress.

"I was the girl who was on fire. Only a bird could get much higher."

3. Sia (ft The Weeknd & Diplo) - Elastic Heart

"You didn't break me. I'm still fighting for peace."

4. Mikky Ekko - Place for Us
Do you know Mikky Ekko? Rihanna and him ever performed a song called "Stay" together. I like Mikky's voice here, it's really nice listening to this song.


Overall, I am quite satisfied with all these songs in this album. The rhythm, the music tone, all are describing very well the spirit of Catching Fire's movie, hehehe. The selected artists are incredible. You know, most of the singer are popular, like Christina Aguilera, Lorde, Imagine Dragons, and others. I really like this album.

For Indonesian people who also love Hunger Games : Catching Fire, prepare the date (22nd November 2013).

Seems like outer-space-theme movie is quite popular now in 2013. We've already seen Oblivion, Star Trek and Gravity. Now, Ender's Game will make its position into one of good outer-space-theme movie too. Some said, Ender's game is a combination of Star Wars-Harry Potter-Hunger Games. But, for me it's more a combination of Star Wars-Harry Potter-Divergent.


a brief storyline

The chosen one, Ender Wiggin (Asa Butterfield) is trained at Battle School to fighting off the alien race called "Formics". He is trained by Colonel Graff (Harrison Ford) and later by Mazer Rackham (Ben Kingsley) who have known as a hero because he's already cut off the first attack by Formics. Ender Wiggin is recruited to lead his fellow soldiers to determine the future of Earth.

"We need minds like yours, Ender. You'll be the finest commander we've ever trained."

a fair review

Ender's Game has chosen very well its main actor, Asa Butterfield (this boy also did a great acting in "Hugo"). He is perfectly fit the character of Ender Wiggin, a genious young boy who apparently knows how to please everyone, especialy the superior one. I can clearly see how Ender Wiggin thinks, feels, and executes his plans or strategies by his blue eyes and his cautios expression. It's really brilliant.


Luckily, Asa Butterfield is surrounded by superb actors too, like Harrison Ford and Ben Kingsley. Both actors, of course, did a great job in this movie. Maybe, Ben Kingsley as Mazer Rackham should have appear more since he is also the hero. His character is very lacking. Other child actors and actresses like Hailee Stainfeld as Petra, Moises Arias as Benzo, Abigail Breslin as Valentine, Aramis Knight as Bean, and Suraj Parthasarathy as Alai also manage a great performance.


The first plotline susccesfully makes you know well about who Ender Wiggin is and how he can handle his anger & aggresive action. The storyline itself is quite interesting, we know the earth this time, surely needs the intelligence of young people. Am I true? hahaa. Somehow, there is one scene that makes you feel sleepy  too in the middle of the story. Special effect in this movie is really stunning and incredible. I am really satisfied by all imaginative visuals about the arena and the simulation. The sound effects is also nice, you know it's like Steve Jablonsky's score for Transformer, awesome.

a brief conclusion

I'm so much interested to read the book after watched this movie. I want to know more about Ender Wiggin's point of view. I found it interesting how the way he thinks out of the box and how the way he feels the emotion of being "the chosen one". Recommended? Yes, for those who praise the visual effect from the movie. I think it might be more interesting to watch this movie in IMAX theatre. At first, I don't have any big expectation to this movie, but it turns out pretty good.

a brief storyline

An ancient race, Dark Elves led by Malekith (Christopher Eccleston) is back to take his vengeance with Asgard. He is risen by the strong evil power of Aether which is absorbed by Thor's scientist girlfriend, Jane Foster (Natalie Portman). To stop Malekith, Thor (Chris Hemsworth) must sacrifice everything, even asks Loki (Tom Hiddleston) to help him.
