Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time

I’m too mesmerized between Jake Gyllenhaal toned bod and Gemma Arterton fabulous curvy body in “Prince of Persia: the Sands of Time”…

All hail AVATAR!

rave about AVATAR by James Cameron – the best movie I’ve ever seen in my life

are those donkeys I saw in the cinema?

I’m quite concerned about the population of Malaysia, when nowadays I saw more donkeys than proper human beings in the cinema. How do you identify the donkeys? Well…

First they came in a gang (perhaps they like to gang bang or they think numbers scares people) – more than two usually.

Secondly they love to sit in a row. I guess it’s the herd factor.

Thirdly they tend to pick a foreign title movie which they do not understand or appreciate (take The Orphanage as an example) – one can assume they try to act like they know, maybe its a custom in donkey world? Or maybe they thought this will lend them some sophistication?

Fourthly they usually bray (loudly or softly, doesn’t matter) and laugh as only a donkey can when the movie reach the more explanatory bit – you can safely conclude that they are illiterate or they would shut up and the read malay, english or chinese subtitles. The cinema is small you crackhead, we can hear EVERY single little noise!

Lastly they are donkeys firmly because they are so full of themselves and are ASSES for making my cinema experience totally crappy. Half of the time was used to mentally restrain myself from giving them a tongue lashing. (yeah, I still wanna try keep my ladylike image in front of JC)

Well take heed now you donkeys. If you start braying next time you are in a cinema when the show has started beware of the popcorn shower coming your way!

BE CONSIDERATE. WE BOUGHT TICKETS TOO!!!!!!

a quickie movie reviews

The fact that I can write snippets about so many of them at one go is a testimony of me watching too many movies this month . Here goes:
Ah Long Pte Ltd (rating: 5/5)
This is a MUST WATCH! The creatively funny scenes and punch lines (hint: ah gua, mother, pregnant) will sent you over the edges, make you stomp your foot and cry with laughter. Loved the revamp way of chasing loan money. Be prepared to be blasted by super *rojak* language though.
Strongly recommmended for people who is feeling a little suicidal.
Dr. Seuss’ Horton Hears A Who? (Rating: 4.5/5)
There’s nothing new about the idea itself but they did a good job putting it in perspective. Jim Carrey-esque style of comedy will not fail you when it comes to tickle your funny bone. More often than not the adults were laughing harder than the kiddos. Really love the small furry animal… can’t remember her name.

Good for any sort of age groups, at anytime. Just avoid going to the same cinema with babies (as if they really know how to watch the show).

The Spiderwick Chronicles (3/5)
It was kind of childish, really. Fun, nonetheless. Expect the normal magic, fairies, evil ogres, tunnels, a much sought after artefact (in this case, a book), with ordinary plots. The graphics are quite OK, and I kept wondering if those 2 boys are actually twins, or real-life brothers. Frankly, I have seen better fantasy movies.

Watch it if you are in the mood for some brilliant colours and fairytale.

An Empress and The Warriors (2.5/5)

I don’t see Kelly Chan’s acting improving, Leon Lai is fat now, and Donnie Yen is nothing but a side-kick. The idea of why men resist so hard to hand over the in-charge position to women is totally emphasized here – she will just drop everything and run away with her lover. And the love matching KL and LL is just wrong (somehow)!

Only to pay tribute to the beautifully manufactured armour.

Vanished (-1/5)
I chose this movie instead of Shutter because I have seen the Jap version. I should have stick with Shutter. This movie aims to confuse you with bad story telling screenshots, seduce you with not so handsome or pretty lead roles, and lullaby you to sleep with a long and dreary puppy love story (who could have those kind of long-lasting feelings at 12?) The scariest bit came when a cockroach flew over me.
Don’t. Just don’t. Please just go watch the reruns of ‘The Eye’. *shriek
