Christmas holiday movies

I caught 2 movies in a row, one with my bro and one with my bro and my cousin(along with his girlfriend). So what movie I watched, I will review them here.



This first movie that I caught with my bro, it is "bedtime stories". It is about a man, Skeeter, whose father operated and own a motel. But due to financial problem, he had to sell it, under the condition that skeeter have to run the hotel when he grows up. Well, skeeter did work in the hotel that was built after the person bought it, but he work as a plumber. One day he had to baby-sit his sister's children while she went out of town for a week. The kids are used to have bedtime story before the sleep. Skeeter told them one during the first night, the kid added sometime into the story, so the ending sounds happy. In the next day, skeeter found out that what ever was said in the story by the kids, it came true. On the same day, he got the chance of meeting the boss of the hotel. The boss said that the new hotel's theme and skeeter mentioned that the theme was outdated. The boss give him a shot, if he can come out with a better idea, he will be the manager of the new hotel. He decide to make use of the strange phenomenons that the bedtime story told to the kid to gain the position. Although in the end he got the position, he was fired moments later due to something(avoiding spoilers). I would now talk about the ending, it is predictable, what you expect from disney movie? Sad ending?

Second movie, yes man.


This movie is about a loner who says no to anything that comes to him, even his buddy asking him out. One day, his old classmae asked him to attend a seminar that ultimately changed his life, that is to say yes to everything that comes to him. Because of this, he finally found his love and finally got to become a sociable person, got into high rank in his bank office. Well, in the end, it is still a holiday movie and it has, of course, happy ending.

Basically, both movies are very funny, but they suffer the same error, jokes get old. This is very obvious in "Yes man", almost all the jokes had been used before. But, they are both very good movies, I give them 7/10 for "Bedtime stories" and 6.5/10 for "Yes man". Catch them if you got the chance, will give you a good laugh.
New post, I will review a series of movies starring my idol, donnie yen.

Movie review, bolt

Ok, this is a disney movie, so it is a kid movie. Yet, it attracted a lot of people to watch it and include me.

This movie started a dog, bolt, with a girl, penny, trying to save her father from an evil organisation. The father knows the girl will be targetted, he altered bolt's gene and make it a superdog. So there is a dog-bike-chopping chase scene and then bolt bark the shit out of the thugs.

You thought this is an action disney movie, oh no, you're wrong. These action are jst a filming of a tv show. Bolt believe that everything and his power is true and people are trying to catch penny. Until one day that after a shooting end with penny really got caught. The manager of penny don't allow her to see bolt to let bolt continue to believe everything. Bolt escaped the studio and accidentally got to NYC. From there, he team up with a cat, mitten and a mouse or something, rhino to get back to hollywood. In the mean time, he noticed that everything is fake and so do his power.

Finally he got back to hollywood and some shit happens, he got back with penny with mitten and rhino, becoming pets of penny's.

I had to say the graphic are pretty good and the voice acting are pretty good. Well, what you expect for the disney movie? But I got one thing to say about the plot, it is very similar to Toy story by pixar, in fact, I think the plot is exactly the same, just with different character. Toy story is about a toy woody and buzz got lost and then a kid grab it and claimed his. Then the owner is moving house and then woody and buzz got back to the owner just in time. That is the one thing that I complain, the plot is so similar to toy story that there isn't much originality.

This movie is still pretty good, I give it 7/10 for it. Go watch it if you got the chance.

Argh! pain!

Last sunday, I think I over exert a bit too much during the gym session, I injured my bi-sect(sp). Now it's ridiculously pain if I want to raise my hand higher than the shoulder height. *sigh, 2008 is almost over and this year hasn't been one of the worst year, but it wasn't one of the best. I lost a lot of things this year, I lost love, I lost friendship, not to mention twice. It's seems that I always don't get love, I always can't get a girlfriend that both of us love each other. I'm not being a "love-holic", but it's just too...lonely. I'm always so lonely, even though I always told my buddy that I will not love, martial art is the only thing. But deep down in my heart, I always want someone to love and someone to love me. Can you imagine how lonely to watch a movie alone, to go shopping alone, go playing alone and even walking alone? It's this emptiness that is enough swallow a whole person in and devour them. God, please grant me this small wish, I want to love someone and someone to love me...

Busy, busy and still busy

Been busy recently, tomorrow is my first day in the Film IG, so I'm going to work hard to get better on filming. Talking about filming, last time I talked about taking part in the reflection, an art event in school. So a team need to submit their entry, a short film and then judges will judge which one will win. I didn't win, but it's due to one that there is no "best action design" prize, so I didn't win any one of the prize. I also got not very good comment on the sgcafe forum. I'm ok with it, just a little demoralising when saw it. But, the president of the Film IG invited me to join, to hone my camera skills. Also, one of the organiser said that the judges like the fight scene, one of them is a tv programe producer and might look up to me when they want to film action scene. Although, I never win, but it seems that the reward is bigger and better than the $1000 cash.

Recently not only busy, I don't know what happened to me. When I'm bored, I turn on either python or php to do programming. Although it might be difficult at time, but it is quite fun when I do it.

I am now planning for the last episode of the "dawn of twin vegeance". I'm going to make it big. I might film it in this dec holiday or during the 2 months holiday.

Tomorrow going to watch a movie, will talk about it when I got back home.

Some funny stuff.

Last week, I had my pp presentation, but I also got wushu training. So I brought all the things needed to the training, since iti s before my timeslot for presentation. I changed and went for the presentation just about half an hour before the training ends. I rehearse a bit, then went in to present. Overall, it's a pretty pleasant experience, hope I can pass. After that go eat lunch with bunny and hui han and zi yun. I ate quite a lot that day, damn hungry. No breakfast and then training, restrict from eating stuff until 3+.

Ok, so what so funny is this about. The resul comes out on the monday morning. I happily find my clothes for the day and the pant & t-shirt for training. I search through high and low, I can find it. I'm sure I didn't misplace it, since I'm wearing the same clothes I wore the last time. So, I remember I never bring it home the previous week. Because during that day I opened my bag a lot of times, which should have my clothes, but it isn't there. Great, so I happily left it outside E5 for 3 days and never noticed it. I went to class as per normal, hopefully it is still there, but it wasn't. Made a report at OSC and then I skippede training to go all the way to kallang to buy. Now, warning, the funny part is coming:




I'm sorry to those who can't read chinese. So it is a flyer about buy/sell used handphones. In mandarine, hand is 手 and phone is 电话. For the combined version, a shorter word is used, 手机. In the flyer, it is 手鸡. Direct translation will be hand chicken. I laughed my ass out man, and some more it is in the middle of the street. Then I also come across a sign for a shop. Supposingly it is roast lamb meat. But it is a baby lamb(I don't know the name for it) and it is fat and juicy, I guess. It is writen in mandarine, 小肥羊, which mean little fatty lamb for direct translation. But the sign-board bring it to a new level, there is an english name for it, small feiyang. I laughed again, except for the word small, it is just an english way of spelling mandarine. What the hell, I wonder what if other caucasian see this? I bet it is writen by china people.

finally an update.

Wow, that is a long time since I update this blog. Well, life seems to get busier and busier as day goes by. Remember last time after I finished filming, the second episode of the short series I'm making. Things had it's way to stuck me in the current state. Well, what I was busying? Monday and friday I got wushu training in school, recently got a performance coming up, the coach want us to train harder. Damn, that will be the first performance of mine in my entire life. And somemore in front of a couple thousands of people, geez, cut me a break.

Wednesday I got taekwondo training as usual. Now I'm getting close to brown belt, which means I am aligible for the tournament. Damned, I can't wait till that day.

Saturday, oh my god, I have to go to my dreadful father's stall to help out. Fuck, I mean I worked there for more than 10 years, who would get tired of doing the same thing over and over again for 10 years?

Sunday I got Japanese class and gym session. Well, gym is one part of the routine, I have to go to gym for whatever reason. Japanese class has been fun too, but too bad that it has been almost 2 years since I sit in a class, holder a pen and taking down notes for 2 hours. To tell the truth, sometime I did fell asleep. The sensei likes to joke, but a lot of the time is just corny, not funny at all.

That pretty much take up 5 days of my week, which means I left tues and thur to rest. But let's not forget, I want to improve both at programming and drawing, which means more time is needed to be used on both. That generally left 0 days in a week for me to rest. The only rest I can get is the slumber every night.

Talk about programming, I really hate PHP programming, especially that faci. She keep giving a message on the face: "you better do something or I'm going to get you fucked up". Fuck, can't she give us a break? Sometime I ask her question, it is equal to not answering since her answer is really vague. Occasionally, the problem for the day is too big to be completed in a day. I mean what the hell is wrong with the problem crafter? Even it can be completed in a day, that would take all the team members together and spend no time eating, drinking, resting and even going to the toilet. Not to mention that the worksheet sucks, it is the most vague worksheet I ever seen in my entire life. If my english teacher during my secondary school time were to see this, I think she would correct everything. Imagine this question.

Now, create a button and allow it to link to this php codes. What do you see?

What the fuck? It didn't even say what are we supposed to do. Create a button and link to the php codes? What can I see? Why not just say: "what can you see at this section?" That would be more helpful. Sometime I just don't want to look at the worksheet except to see what to do for the next step. Fuck this crap, fuck it to hell. I'm giving it both middle finger at full force.

Ok, gotta cool down. FUCK! TOMORROW IS PHP, OH GOD!!!

Money no enough 2

Ok, this time I'm going to post a review about this movie that was said to be one of the best movie made by Jack neo. I want to say something, this movie suck ass and because of one very simple reason, the title. I'll start with the summary of the plot.

There are 3 brothers from different life background. The elder brother, hui, is a low wage worker who everyday works hard just to survive. The second elder brother, qiang, from a rich background and the younger brother, huang, a middle wage boss. All 3 of them strive hard to get as rich as possible, hui eventually joint huang selling some healthy pills with the financial help from their mother. It was a success at first, but later on the pills was tested out to be poison. Qiang on the other hand, faces a problem that the lawyer ran away with their money and cause his to get into serious debt problem. Their mother of course help them out financially, as much as possible. But it is time for her to gone senile. When they finally coped with their debts, now they have to take care of their mother, taking turns. Although they are the sons, but they failed to take good care of her. Soon, they decide to take her to the homes, but the mother collapsed due to sickness. They stayed at the hospital, with the rising of hospital fee, they found trouble with coping it. At one time, qiang's wife and daughter was rushing to get to the location of performance during the 7th month, but they met an car accient and then her daughter was sent to the same hospital. The hospital lack of O- blood for the daughter, as the blood was being sent to the mother for operation. At this crossroad, everyone was crying and arguing for the blood. The mother, sacrificing herself, plug out the oxygen pipe without any one knowing, resulting to her death and the blood was being used to save qiang's daughter. At the end of the movie, the 3 brothers invest in a healthy product again and gain great success...

Ok, this movie, got one very big problem that all movies shouldn't make. THERE ARE TOO MANY CG SCENES!!! I mean, what the hell, this is not a fantasy movie or anything like that, this is a movie reflecting real life problem, which means must be realistic. What do I see here? CG animation here and there, spamming it like hell is going to break lose. If it is about throwing the EPR into the sea, I got no problem about it, but the entire show was filled by CGI. Let me name out a few, the car crashing scene where the daughter flew out, the talisman burning(which paper burns and no smoke, ashes were produced?) etc. I mean, which is there so many 3D animation being involved? There is not need for it, no fucking need for it!!!

*sigh, oh, why the movie sucks mainly because of the title? Let me explain. The movie title, "money no enough 2", should focus on striving/surviving in the money needed world. Take a look at the prequel, "money no enough". Everything was about money and people handling with it. This sequel on the other hand, is more like motherly love. The mother plays such a big role in the movie, not to mention like the later half of the movie. Everything was about how noble mother is or something. The money problem was solved pretty much the first hour of the movie and the later half changed the theme totally. THIS IS FUCKING STUPID!!! I mean, jack was a good director, I give you that, but the theme totally went off after the money problem was being solved, what the fuck!? I'll rate this movie...half star/5. Why half? Well, even the joke inside were pretty old and sometime is just corny,

New class

Ok, it is the third day of the new semester and now then I start talking about it. Well, I was busy few days back then. So basically, getting into a new class every semester is kind of a routine already, I already got used to it and never got emotional at the end of semester like what I did during the first year semester 1. So this new class, it's a pretty nice one. Miraculously, I can remember most of the name of the other people, even though I may not talk to them much in the class....well, for the first 3 days of course. The new classmates are cool, I don't now why, I just think that they are. The faci also good, especially morgan who teaches us python programming. Ben lee rocks too, but he gave me a comment on the first day animation that the design is bad, which is the gave me the heaviest impact. Because my design is bad, yeah, I got to buck up and unleashed my creativity throughout the module.

Few days ago, before the holiday ended, I finally finished the film that was held back for more than half year. Now I'm doing the editing, but it is the most tedious thing I ever did. Why? My adobe premiere pro was unworkable for some reason, now I was resulted to Ulead video studio. But I can say, it is the worst video editing software. Why? IT IS FREAKING LAGGY!!! I mean, window movie maker is even better than it. I was to put a transition at the end of the movie, but the transition can only to be imply between 2 clips, what suck ass function. Not only that, it also got some weird special effects. Although I don't need them, but it's still ok to use. One of the worst thing I hate is how it affect my movie. Everytime there is a movement of the people in the clip, it some sort make the edge of the character to looks weird, like there are lines coming out from the edge. The worst thing of this software, it is fucking lag. Everytime when I scroll the timeline, it takes like fucking 30seconds, yes, I'm not kidding, 30 fucking seconds. I was so angry about it, but the function is more than movie maker, which is what I want. This is bullshit, I almost kill someone because of that. But thank goodness, the video is almost done. Look forward to it then.

W65N BBQ

I keep forgetting to update the details in our bbq, a bit too busy to update, so here I am to update. First I went to bedok to meet with alvin and the company to buy all the things that is needed for the BBQ. Walked around the parkway parade's giant for all the things while alvin wait at the bus stop for puay yek. We bought quite a lot of things, at first we thought that the food might not be enough for so many people, but from what I heard, it seems that the food is a little too much for the bunch of people. After all the shopping, we went to the BBQ straight away. Gues what? We walked for quite a while before we finally reach the place, that was a long way man. When we reach there, me, linus and alvin decide to ride the bicycle that we rented to the 7-11 for some drinks, we were thirsty at that time. We went and bought, when we got back, within like 2 minutes, 2 agent from NEA approach. They claimed that they saw shaq threw 3 piece of tissues on the floor and thus issued a fine to her. We were like "what the fuck?", we just reached there and didn't even start to unpack the ingredient that we got there. We did try to reason out, but one "$10000 fine will be issued if we detain their time to carry their duties" was slapped on our face. We got nothing to saw but to keep quiet...What the fuck is this?

After that thing, we proceed to do some preparation for the BBQ, like unpacking the ingredient and wash it. Then we played some captain ball on the beach, I tell you, that was fun. But one thing bad is that I can't jump much because it is sand, it absorbed most of the forces that I applied to jump. After that captain ball will be the king game, some of the forfeit is ridiculous and some of them are just funny. Then it was evening time, the rest of the people start to come in and then we started eating and chatting. After that eating period again, we play the number game, yes, the same game that me and the the company that went for the NDP. I can't play for long, because I need to go back once my parents came. Guess what, the moment we started the game, my parents called and said that they will come in 10 minutes, what the hell? So I played a little and then I went back.

NDP

Ok, long time never talk about recent life. So yeah, this post is about the NDP outing with my friends.

This year Nation day happens to be on saturday, which means I have to work at my father's stall, but I left like in 4+pm and go to suntect city to meet with wayne and the company. Guess what? I call them a lot of times and none of them picked up the phone, so I loiter around suntect city, trying my luck and see whether can run into them or not. Finally wayne called back and told me that they are at the arcade. Great, I'm at a very far place from the arcade, so I use like 20 mins to get to the arcade and meet with them. We play some games in the arcade and then we go to marina square to find yek. Yek was with her friends, again, at the arcade. Play some more games, then look at linus and fifi play "guitar freak". After that, we head out to find place for a clear view of the fireworks. Finally, we got to the Singapore flyers and sit there to get the view of the fireworks. The fireworks were nice, thank goodness I witness it with my eye, not from the squarish TV. With the end of fireworks, it means the journey for our hungry stomach. We look through everywhere in suntect city, in the end, we ate at pizza hut. Ordered 4 pizzas and couple of drinks and soup. Just few slices of pizza and I'm already full. After he dinner, then we play a number game called "终极密码", it is played like this. The range is 0 to 100, a person will have the number on his handphone or anywhere that can be written. Then the other play guess a number. If the number is wrong, then the range will be shorten. If the person got the correct number, he will have to play "true or dare". We played a little bit at pizza hut then we head outside to continue the game. We asked a lot of....intimacy questions, but I wasn't asked that kind of question, just revealed a secret or 2 of mine. On the final round, wayne got the correct number and then he was asked a question, then he answered with the most classic answer we ever heard, guess it would be a joke for the entire RP life. Finally, we went home.


this is the punishment before the "true and dare" comes in. A cup of plain water with chilli and cheese.

During the fireworks waiting time.














It's pizza time(sounds familiar?):








Next post I will put updates on the BBQ event we had yesterday.

Movie review again

Ok, after this review, I will stop for a while until I watch the next movie. The first movie will be this:



This movie is a new batman movie after the suck ass "batman and robin" movie in the 90s. The movie started off by introducing bruce wayne, the son of a millionair in gotham city. He witnessed his parents being killed in a robbery and that determined him to fight crime. He went to other country and train for 7 years, under a person with very strong sense of justice, rus al gul. At one point, they caught a theif, to them, every crime must be paid by death and the execution right were given to wayne. He reject the idea and then fight the entire school of justice servant, eventually he appareantly defeated rus al gul. He, then return to gotham city, uses the unsed equipment that the military do not want, developed by his company. Design a suit that is capable to glide, spy, eavesdropping, and bullet proof armour covering the entire body, shurikens on the shin, throwing knives at his...belt or somewhere, grappling hook and many more equipments. As wayne fights crime in his night life, he soon encounter scarecrow, which has the equipment to eject fear inducing toxin to an individual. After some researching, rus al gul appear once again in his party. Rus al gul intends to use the fear inducing toxin, co-op with the equipment, capable of evaporising liquid, to destroy the corrupted gotham city. Wayne got himself back into a section of the city to stop rus al gul to destroy the city. Both of them fought in the train, which contain the liquid vaporising equipment. With the help of gordon, his friend in the police department, they finally stop the destruction of gotham city. Sometime after the incident, gordon got contact with batman, telling him there is a criminal that wants to get to batman. The criminal left a card, indicating his identity.




Ok, comment time. This is by far, the best batman movie(2005 perspective). The cinematography and story telling is good. The best part of the movie is the car chasing scene, where batman drives his bat mobile(the tumbler) and outrun the police. The story is darker compared the previous few movies, the batsuits design is badass too. Talking about badass, when wayne became batman, his change his voice to a deeper pitch, which make batman even more badass. Listern to solid snake's voice and you will know it. There are 2 things I want to complain, first: The first hour or so of the movie is too much. Explaining how wayne got the idea of the batsuit, how he train, how he determine to fight crime was way too much, may be don't need that much of the time, just a little bit will do. Also, the movie is a little too long, only if the first hour hour were to be more exciting, it wouldn't be a problem.
Second: The fight scenes are poorly filmed, it was being cut and editing in a way that I can't see what is going on in the scene. Although with the complains, but this is a movie that worth watching.

Second movie I'm going to review will be the sequel of batman begins, the dark knight.



This movie started about the same time when batman begins ended. It started off by showing some robbers robbing a bank, in the end one of them killed the others and took off the mask. It is the Joker, nemesis of batman. Joker went to the mobs' boss to give idea on how to take down batman, although the bosses don't agree it a lot, but since taking down batman is their benefit, why not? Not to mention too many things in the movie, but one thing I can say is that two-face also make an appearance in this movie too.



Ok, there is a very big improvement compared this to the prequel. First thing that got improved is that the fighting scenes are more detailed and well edited, I can see what is happening in the fighting scenes. Second thing is that the props that was used got more and more explosions. The story are nice too, always got plot-twist here and there. One thing I'm very happy about is the joker. Everytime when I think about a clown, it's either a totally funny person or a really scary motherfucker. And guess what, heath ledger did a very good job in portraying a total crazy criminal that don't afraid of anything, just simply crazy. The showdown of joker and batman is always the highlight of every batman movie or series. I say this is the best batman movie ever, hope there will be a sequel to it.

Movie review once more

Ok, like what I said last time, this review will be about indiana jones series. I will leave out "kingdom of the crystal skull", since I review it before already.



This is the first movie of the trilogy. The movie started off by Indiana(let's call him indy) venturing into some tribal ruins with an aquaintance. At the end of the venturing through traps and deadly spiders in the ruins, he finally got the idol of in the ruin, but soon being grabbed away by one of his competitors, belloq. Indy escaped from the chasing tribe people and return to the states empty handed. In the Uni that he taught in, he met 2 army intelligence, who told him that the nazi is looking for the ark of the covenant for great power. One of the key person is indy's former teacher. Indy flew all the way to nepal to find his teacher, but instead he found his former lover, marion, who is the daughter of his teacher. After a gun fight in the var of marion's, he got marion to go to egypt, which is said that the location of the ark is at. With the help of his friend and many puzzle solving, gun fights and chasing, indy found the ark, but was again taken away by belloq. Chasing after the nazis' submarine, they reach an isolated island for a ritual to open the ark. Surprisingly, marion was being captured by the nazis and held hostage, indy has no choice to give in and follow them to the altar. At the altar, belloq conduct the ritual and open the ark. What was inside the ark is very surprising, I think it is something that's powerful, it eliminates all the nazi soldier over there, belloq and the commander. Only indy and marion survived because they did not look at the ritual, so the power inside the ark didn't kill them. Indy brings the ark back to the states, the army lied to indy that the ark is under researching, but it was being stored in a warehouse that contain multiple supernatural artifacts...



This movie is a good one, puzzle solving and jokes, it has everything that you want in a movie. Regarding of the action part, I think still can be improved, like the punches didn't make contact. Some might not notice it or care about it, but I care and noticed it, so it can be improved. I'll give 4 star for this movie.



Second movie, indiana jones and the temple of doom. This is a prequel to "raider of the lost ark", it started off in shanghai, where indy found the remain of the first manchu emperor for his client. But it seems that the client don't intend to pay indy, a huge diamond. In the end, a gun fight happens and then indy was poisoned by the drink he just drank. He mananged to grab the antidote from the client and then grab the girlfriend of the client as hostage to escape. Indy and the girlfriend, wilie drop onto indy's side kick, short round's car and then escape to the airport. They boarded the train, never noticed that it is the client's company plane. The pilot parachute off the plane while indy and the company was taking a nap. Indy woke up and decide to land on the ground, using inflatable boat with willie and short round. They noticed that they were in india and was in a village which all the kids were being grabed by the king in the castle of pankot, along with the village sankara stone. Indy in order to repay them, he decide to head into the castle. Upon reaching the castle, indy meet many officials and royals, including a british navy captain. After many investigation, he found out that the castle is the fortress to a cult, doing human sacrifices. Even indy got brainwashed and nearly brought willie to sacrifing, until short round woke him by torching him a bit. Indy in the end escaped the castle by a mine trolly track with willie and short round, then encounter the chief of the cult at a hanging bridge, which has dozens of crocs under the it. Doing something crazy, he cut off the bridge supporting rope and managed to get the chief down into the river, resulting into being torn apart. The british navy later then came in to arrest the rest of the cult member. Indy return to the village with the kids and the sankara stone, happy ending....

This is one of the not so good indiana jones movie. All the other movies, indy fly from countries to countries looking for the artifact. But this movie is just in a castle saving kids, not find artifacts. It is still good, but not really good when compared to the other indiana jones movie, just a bit too goofy. I will give 3 star for this movie.



Third movie, indiana jones and the last crusade. The movie start off by explaining how indy got his hat, I wonder what has it got to do with the plot? I know that the hat is one of the most important thing of indy, but why need to explain it? Anyway, indy was still looking for artifacts and all, until a man told him that indy's father disappear when looking for the holy grail and the nazi seems to be involved in the disappearing, Indy is determine to find his father. First start off at venice, he discover the clue and then head to germany for an important diary to get to the location of the holy grail, he found his father along the way too. Just like the normal Indiana jones movie, indy got held by the nazis as well as his father and sallah, the man that helped indy to find the ark. Indy have to solve the puzzle in the ruins that contains the holy grail. He solved it along with the nazi commander, enter the chamber that contain the grail. Only one grail is the correct one, drinking the holy water with the wrong grail will result to death. The commander chose the wrong one and indy has to pick one. Of course he choose the correct one, using it to save his father who suffer from fatal gun wound. If the grail left the seal of the temple, the temple will collapse and the effect of the holy grail will fade. That is what happened, resulting all the nazis to crash in the temple, left indy and his company alive...

This is so called the last of the trilogy of indiana jones. This is a good movie, a good end for the trilogy. The love of father and son, the action scene(excluding hand to hand combat) and jokes, all was enchenced from the first one, making it one of the most perfect movie ever. I give it 4.5 stars.

Next movie reviews, let you guess, a few recent movies.

Movie review

I'm going to cut short on this movie reviews, there are 5 in a row, so basically I just put up pictures and reviews, no story summary, may be a bit.



This 2nd movie start after the event after rocky 1. Rocky decide to retire from boxing and marry adrian. But he soon have to find a job because his prize money can't last, but nothing turns out good and so he have to go back to boxing against adrian's will. Eventually adrian passed out due to over work and nearly misscarriage(sp?). He actually wanted to rematch with apollo, but he is not in the mood now. Finally adrian woke up and gave rocky the encouragement. Rocky went back to training once again and then the rematch, he win by KO.

The movie basically is a further development of each character, which is a good thing. One thing bad that is the punches don't come close to make a contact, which make the fight less realistic.



rocky 3, this movie start off rocky going on a winning spree. Everyone that challenged him lost and he retain his title, heavy weight champion of the world. But he was challenged by a boxer named clubber lang. Rocky accepted challenge, but mickey, his trainer + manager suddenly fall due to heart failure. Rocky can't concentrate during the fight and thus he was KO'ed. After the match, a bit of talking with mickey and mickey dies. Rocky sudden lost of his dearest mentor, friend, manager and teacher, made him unable to train well for the rematch. Apollo appears and decide to train rocky, because he don't want the rocky that previously beat him to fall. Rocky took a while to over come the phobia of losing and finally trained up for the rematch. The rematch ended with rocky emerge winning and regain his title.



This movie is the one that pick up the series, especially the fight, which is perfect for boxing. First time that is the entire fight is shown, not overlayed.



Next one, rocky 4. This movie start off about the same time after rocky 3, everything is just as per normal, until a visit of a boxer, Ivan drago, from USSR, which means soviet union back in a few decades ago. This boxer is here for a challenge with some good boxer, the patriotic apollo rise up for the challenge. But this soviet boxer is a monster, he KO'ed apollo within a few rounds like nothing, ending up apollo died after the match. Rocky, after witnessing his best friend's death, he decide to challenge drago for a match, also a revenge for apollo. He went to a mountain in soviet union for training, since he is going to do the rematch over there. He was finally going to the match after getting he support from adrian, who at first don't want him to go to the match since it won't change the fact that apollo is dead. I won't go much about the fight, it is just like the normal rocky movie, the fight is overlay, but it is definitely great fight.



This movie is so far my favourite in the series, the concept of the USA and the soviet union is brilliant. Not to mention that in the end, rocky gave a speech about break the wall between the 2 nation. This movie was said that ended the cold war between the 2 countries, I wonder if that is true or not.



Rocky 5, it started, again, straight after the event of rocky 4. It seems that there is some problem with rocky after the match with drago, he isn't feeling quite well. When he got back to the states, he was diagnosed that he has permernant brain damage, which is common for boxer. This spells the end to his boxing career. Not only that, most of his money were being stolen away by an accountant. Now he is back to square one, he resulted living in his older apartment again. He still can't get over with boxing, so he went back to mickey's gym to be as an instructor. Now a man named tommy gunn appear, saying that he is a fan of rocky and wished to be like him, going over the limit. After much talking, rocky finally decide to be his manager and trainer. Tommy win many matches, but he still can't get to the top, heavy weight champion. Until a crook see the opportunity of tommy, money of couse. He sweet talked tommy and tommy in the end abandoned rocky for his career. Tommy indeed got his championship and gain the title, but he was not respected like rocky did. In order to get his respect, he think he has to beat rocky. He went to the bar that rocky visit often, he challenged rocky and rocky fights him. This isn't a ring fight, this is a sreet fight, tommy in the end lost and got arrested for causing trouble.

This is the worst rocky movie in my sense, rocky don't have any action in it except the last scene. Which makes the main character not rocky. The story telling also bad, I guess it is because that the director is not slvester stallone. Something also being weird, when rocky left the states for the match, his son is like only 7 or 9 years old. When he returned, miraclly that his son now is a teenager, what happened to this director? Is he s fucking idiot?



Last one, rocky balboa. This movie starring the same character as the previous few movies. Rocky now don't fight any more, I think it's because his wife is now gone, dead. Rocky doesn't have any more encouragement. He now run a restaraunt, bears the name "adrian". His son now works in a company, but it is because of his father, the famous rocky. His friends also look at him differently just because he is the son of rocky. One day, the media put on a CG fight of rocky and the current heavy weight champ, mason dickson. The CG fight turns out that Rocky won, this make everyone curious about the actual fight results. Rocky now decide to fight one last time. He have to train extra harder, since he is no longer young. 60 years old, what you expect? During the fight, the age difference did show the result, rocky kept getting the punches. At the second round, it proves that will still can surpass skills. Rocky punch dickson a lot of times and even him say that rocky got bricks in his gloves. In the end, dickson won the fight by the split decision from the judges.



This movie is one of the most hyped movies ever, 1) rocky is one of the best movie ever made, but it ended at the early 90s. 2) Rocky movie is a connection between people of different generation, I am one of them. I recomment people to go watch the rocky movies, they are just simply great. You can leave out rocky 5, since it is a piece of shit, even stallone said so.

Next review, another great movie series. Indiana Jones.

things fucked up a lot...

Ok, recently a lot of shit happned. My PP was sent back to me for rework and thus I went to look for the advisor, guess what? Only a little bit need to add in, which is stronger conclusion and sub-titles. What the hell... Just a bit, why wouldn't the advisor wrote it in the email?

Today is the grading of my taekwondo, I was looking forward to it because finally got sparring after like a month. When I enter the hall, the examiner gave that kind of "fucked-up" face. It's like he saw the most dreadful thing on earth and of all time. The hall is filled with people going for grading, so a single ground can only give 3 pairs of practicers to spar. Guess what, I am one of the left out in the "6 in a row". So fuck it, I do the pattern by myself and get to spar with a blue belt. Guess what again? Something worst happened, normally the sparring will be in 1 min, mine only got like 15sec...Yes, 15 fucking seconds. I mean, what the fuck is wrong with this examiner? I mean, other people got at least 1 min to spar, so that the skills can be used and be seen too. Then why in the holy of fuck I only got 15 seconds? It's not fucking fair. But I can say this straight in the face of his, because he is the head of the grading department. Fuck, things really fucked up.

Just now went out with alvin, rui qi and nic to search for gundam models. I saw one gundam wing 0, so nice. The wing is transparent, it's too tempting. But I really don't have the money for these, still recovering from the damage I got from buying metal gear solid 4. Oh, talk about metal gear solid 4, I finally got it after 2 weeks of it's release and I completed it, now I want to unlock as many things as possible. Attention!!! There will be a game review soon, it has been a while since I review a game, so do look forward to it.

Talk about reviews, I'm going to put up movie reviews on the next few posts. Too many movies watched and too many reviews being held back, next few posts, movie review time.

trainings

About last friday, I retake wushu once again. What? When I took wushu before? About a year ago, so the skills are pretty much forgotten. I can asure, things are much better when I took it one year ago. It might due to the fact that the student over there is around my age, instead of all kids, make me feel better when training. The coaches are all from china, which I got nothing to complain about. The coach funny lor, he asked me what weapon I like, I said "staff". Guess what? He ask me to get a broadsword, I was like "huh?". Nvm, I can learn staff next time. First day just some basic moves, second day got some of the "pattern". I almost slice my face on the second day, thank goodness.

Now I got one thing that bothers me a lot, my hair is dropping like hell. I was like, everytime I just shoove up my hair, I can find 1 or 2 threads of hair on my hand. What the fuck? I really need to go to the watson to get some hair growing tonic or something to grow back my hair.

DIDM camp....*dead*

wah lao, hong kan lah. Ok, why first few words then start swearing, I only sleep one hour in the camp, then got stuff to do. We did photography on the first day, run around the town area to get the shots, especially the one which shows the rooftop. The clue is like shit, we asked around and we got 3 different answer. Bungis, chinatown and clark quay. We went to chinatown but no result, in the end we go clark quay and found that place. After taking the shots, we don't have time to take train back to RP, so we take cab, which cost 20+ dollars. Holy mother of fuck, so expensive. Tomorrow I will upload the pictures.

2nd day we got to do videography, so good lor, I like to do videography. I might want to go into movie industry and make movies. Anyway, we decide to make a love story, with the girl dies(sorry lah, yek). Seriously, it was so sad when it was mixed with the music. I almost cried when editing and watching it for the first time. what is the video? here you go:

Tons of movie reviews

Ok, time for some movie reviews. This post will review a lot of movies, 8 movies if I'm not wrong, especially I hold 7 of them quite a while already. First one we will start with "What happened in vegas"



This movie start with a guy, Jack, lost his job and a woman, joy, lost her love. In order to de-stress themselves, they went to las vegas with their best friend respectively. At vegas, Jack and Joy met by coincident and find themselves to be able to chat with each other. They got themselves drunk and get into married by accident and of course, bed. The next day, they tried to explain things that everything is wrong, who knows that they won a jackpot and they are now fighting over the prize money. They fought on court and the judge asked them to live as a husband and wife for 6 months, if things don't work out, the divorce will be effective.

During the 6 months, they did a lot of funny things, to avoid the spoiler, I will not tell what happened at the end. Overall, this is a pretty funny movie, the comedy part are good, the romantic part aren't bad. One thing I want to complain is the selection of main actor and actress. Cameron diaz was way too old to be in that character already, ashton kutcher face looks too young. Cameron's and others' acting skills are ok, just the selection of character is not good. Overall, this is a pretty good movie, worth watching.

Alright, 2nd movie review, this movie series is being said as one of the best movie ever made and never once had so much hype other then one movie in 2006. What movie is it? Indiana jones and the kingdom of crystal skull.



This movie was set about 20 years later after the event of "the last crusade". Indy was being brought to a weapon testing site at nevada by some russian to find something to allow russian to build a new weapon. Indy helped them to find it, but in the end, indy managed to escape. The FBI then investigate Indy to see whether is he involve in treason. Indy decide to leave US and go to london for a new life, until a young man appears to ask him to find oxley, indy's good friend. It seems that oxley was involved in searching some artifact and then disappear. Indy had to travel deep in maxico and even amazon, while dealing with the russian army who are searching for the artifact.

Ok, no more for the plot spoiler. This movie is indeed one of the best movie I've watched recently, but I still got something to rant about and it is some of the worst thing to see on screen. CGI, why the fuck is there so many CGI in this movie, if it has to be CGI, just make it to cover some of the dangerous such as the falling from the waterfall and the UFO, that's enough. There is no need to have so many CGI, why? It is depressing to see so many fucking CGI, especially it is action movie. Assholes...

The other thing I want to complain is how goofy this movie can be. I haven't watch the temple of doom, but I already heard that it is goofy. This movie was also quite goofy, I don't understand why lucas can only come out with alien, why not something special? Like human from the future/past, gods or any other things. Of all things, martians... Come on, martians are already old, stop the martian thing.

Ok, 3rd review...but this is going to be a long one because I'm going to review 6 movies. It is a movie series of course. This movie is also one of the best movie series ever created, it was a sleeper hit. It also affect almost everyone in one of the state in US. What movie? One of the oldest movie I ever watched, Rocky.



This first installment of the series started with a debt collector, but with a good heart. His passion is boxing, but all he wanted is small fights. Until one day, the world heavyweight champion, apollo creed came to Philadelphia to pick an opponent for an exhibition bout. He picked rocky because of his nickname, Itallian stallion. Rocky at first declined, but he decide to go for the distant and start to train with his manager, mickey. At the day of the bout, rocky won the fight by split decision...



This movie was at first not to meant a big hit, but it the movie attract people with big heart and dream, in short, it is very moralising. This movie shows how a person goes the distant, fighting the impossible and how a person who don't know how to confess(me is one example), confessed. Not the mention the fight is perfect, for the first time, I had shouted: "right hook!!! dodge!!! straight!!! AW, Goddamned it, don't you know how to dodge?" Yes, it is that good. It had no flaws, really, no flaws.

Ok, it is late, the rest I will make it up tomorrow. Nites.

a little long

It has been a while since I blog, but I can't blog too much, since tomorrow I got to film the sequel that I've done few months back, I will blog more about it like tomorrow or thursday.

weird dreams

seriously, I also have a certain kind of weird dream. It's not like always the same kind of dream, but it appears too often. The most often dream I ever had is fighting. Like last night, I dreamt about a father, dauther and son came from foreign country, I think they are russian or something, can't remember, they want to find opponent to fight. It's a 3 round fight, one round one opponent and that fighter cannot rest, so it's not fair for our fighter. Most of the fighters lost, seems like a pretty tough opponent, so left only a few colour belts. They then picked me, guess they just want to humiliate me, since I look plum and clumbsy. Well, guess what, I own their ass. I beat them like no prob and the leave with the title left behind for me. I forgot what's the title, but it's an honourable one.

That was not the only fighting dream, I got dream about scenario like in the Jackie chan movie, fought a lot of enemy then a boss, finally got the girl out and then the base or HQ exploded just like in "Police story 2". Also got dream before like in "Mr vampire", I will be fighting off paranormal beings with a trusty weapon, most of them time is a sword, sometime might be spear or just my bear fist and magic to finish off the monster. It was like, I like fighting, but no fighting when I'm sleeping, I want to sleep. Although once in a while is ok, but not so many time. I guess it symbolised something, I really got to ask around, see who can interpret my dream.

Talking about fighting, my sequel of dawn of twin vengence will soon start shooting, I got the script-writer, actor and my bro for choreography practcing. Hope can get a good one on screen. Same like last time, I will be the one directing, editing and choreogaphing. A lot of job, huh?

Injured

Ok, postponed of my upcoming reviews, need some hiatus. I got lots of movies to review, but let's just take a break on it.

Friday went out with mabel, wayne, ben, sky and linus. Watched what happens in vegas, which was a last minute decision, at first want to watch iron man. Btw, the next review will be what happens in vegas, although it intended to be another movie. After the movie, ben left first and then we just scroll around causeway point, looking for future camera to buy. Mabel got a keychain for herself, I guess. I can't see what is it, so I guess it would be a hello kitty. Then we walk again and then end up sitting outside the MRT station and chat a lot. Just before we depart to our slumbers, I realised we forgot to eat dinner. What's worse is all of them got things to eat at home, which I don't have. So I got instant noodles and a packet of milk. All of them are great, they just accompany me while I'm eating, so touched. Finally we bidded farewell and went home.

2 weeks ago, I had a sparring with this senior who was trained in taekwondo for many years. I can tell you, his kicks are some powerful, it's like a 10kg big rock shoot out from a cannon and hit your body. It's that hard, I'm not making this up. I thought the previous one was fast enough, but this one even faster. I basically land no kicks on him and he kicked me like...easy. I basically did a lot of blocking and hitting if I saw the chance, but guess what I got from the multiple blocks? Injuries. My left arm were swollen for a couple of days and my right wrist hurt real bad that I went to the chinese doctor a week after the sparring, which is today. The doctor said that it is internal injury. WTF, internal injury? No wonder so pain and never subsides even when I apply lotion. What made things worse is that yesterday I help out at my father's stall, sometime need to chop then my hand hurts. My chopping on that day sucks, I can't chop more than 2 servings. My mother did the job if I can't and my father handles the peak hour. Even during peak hour, I'm not doing the chopping, I still have to stress my right hand to do work. The entire day I just bitting my own teeth to bear with the pain. At the end of the day, my wrist can't work to properly, a simple twist can sets me into pain, which means taking out wallet from my back pocket will be hell. I can't even handle my mouse normally, it'll hurts. Now my hand was bandaged and cannot remove for a couple of days, if still pain, have to go back to the doctor.

new class

Ok, it seems that there is too many movie reviews, so let's have a break and talk about something else. What should we talk about? Oh yeah, my new class W65N. Now I am year 2 in RP, currently doing my interactive and digital media. Seriously, I never once like programming this much and I always look forward to the next one. Class had never been boring, there is so many common thing in this class. Close to everyone is retro, anime lover and they like to draw. I'm not detesting anime neither I like it, so I'm neutral, I don't draw well too. Another thing that really got me interested is that there is so many martial artist in this class. Wushu, judo, capoiera and taekwondo. Wow, almost everyday got a small tournament. I bet the facilitators don't want to be too cocky, unless he/she thinks he/she lived too long. We watch old movies and listen songs, and I mean old, can be as far back to the 70s. I like this class, everyday so fun. Next time I'll tell you how crazy we can get to, but the next post will be a movie reiew again, so stay tune.

movie reviews

Yup, like the title, this is a movie review post that I held it for quite a long time. Let me take you back to the 80s, the time where all the classic movies were made and were never surpassed until now. I'm going to review one of them, it is one of the greatest comedy, but to me, it is the greatest comedy movie I ever watch. Not one movie of this time can surpass it. Not only that, it was ranked first on ign.com as the best comedy movie of all time. So after saying this much, I'm going to reveal the name of the movie, it is "Ghostbusters".

Normally people will start to say, "isn't ghostbusters a cartoon that got made into a movie?" Wrong, ghostbusters got a cartoon series because it is so success, it was made into a cartoon that ran for 7 seasons and a lot of action figures. Let's get started on the review, ok?



Ghostbusters, the theme song was a big hit at that time too and still I love the theme song. Basically, the plot start with 3 university professor, researching on paranormal stuff and finally got their first encounter in the library. They were egon, the scientific guy, ray, always energetic and peter, the guy with the heart of calm. When they met the ghost, they can't do anything but run since the ghost is angry. Well, after that, they were chased out of the university because of the lack of operating funds for their department. With their reseach and the first experience, they go into bussiness themselves of the ghostbusting career. At first they didn't get much customers, until a women named dana approach them for some paranormal help. That gives them a little more fund to prolong the bankcrupcy. Finally they got their first ghostbusting work and there they go, drive the ecto-1 and head to the hotel. Although they have the equipment, the ghost trap and the proton packs, they never actually test it before. Whoa, luckily I'm not the first customers. They went through the humourous way and finally got the ghost. That is when their career got picked up and they became celebrity.

Cut all the way to the end, it's too long to write out all the plot. They reseach a lot and then found out that the multiple appearance of ghost is because of the arrival of a destruction god. They got the god eliminated and save NYC.

I can't find anything that is bad about this movie, the movie is 130 minutes long and I laugh 125 minutes, the 5min is credit. The special effects are cool, in fact, the CG inside sometime don't look like from the 80s, more like from the current time. The jokes inside never repeat, everytime there is a joke, it is totally new. So I laugh my way throughout the movie.

There is a sequel to it, ghostbusters II. To cut short, this is a good movie too, but not as good as the first one. If you all can get to see this 2 movies, I recommend you to do so, it is really nice.

One thing I want to complain about, nothing related to the film. Will there be a ghostbusters III? Well, if there are home alone 3, psycho 3, spiderman 3, free willy 3, a bunch of sequels to scary movie, america pie that rape the ass of hollywood, I don't see the reason of not having ghostbusters 3.

I am so touched...

Ok, this post is not going to be a movie/game review. Just now I came across this video that is so true, so touching, I tears in my heart because it touches to the deepest depth. It is a video telling what ultraman had taught us through the tv series. A lot of people might still think that ultraman is childish or it is violent, but they don't know the message that was conveyed to the audience. I notice that as people grow up, they lose faith in what they believe to be true when they are still a child. Soon, they have doubt in them and sometime even denied them. Ultraman series had been going on for 40+ years, yet the message conveyed to us was how to be a better person. Some watched it might get the message and follow the message, but some might not. About this video, it is telling us what each ultraman had taught us. Sorry it is in chinese, so I will put the translation here.

http://www.ultramanclub.com/2008-1/200816195025.htm

Here is the translation of each message conveyed to us.

Ultraman: He taught us the importance and the meaning of life.
Being the first ultraman that came to earth as a defender, he knew that life is so fragile, yet so precious. Because we live, we have dreams, love, friends and future. Although life can be shattered so easily, but the experiences of all those mentioned above was nevertheless, priceless. Don't give up life, life is very precious because they are things that cannot be gained without being alive.

Ultraseven: He taught us to treasure the un-replacesible things, love and friend.Love and friends, 2 things that is VERY important in a person's life. While ultraseven is on earth, there is no one to help him. Everytime he fights the enemy, he fights them alone. But because the friendships and love from the friends on earth, he continues to protect them. Friendships and love is always the supporting pillar for each one of us, without them, we can collapse anytime there is a storm in our life.

Ultraman Jack: He taught us the true meaning of love.
Brotherly love, parents love, life partner love, etc. There are tons of love in the world, but sometime we take for granted of it or we don't really know the meaning of love. What is love? When our parents nag at us, the words sometime might be harsh, but there is always love deep down in their words. There is a famous qoute in the series that is still echoing in the series and our life, the ultra 5 oath. Not going to say out the whole thing, but the oath through the surface, we won't get the true meaning, only if we look into it, we know that this is the true meaning of love.

Ultraman Ace: He taught us how to trust other people
This is so far the most important lesson we should learnt and even I'm still learning it, trust. Every relationship begin with trust and relationships were able to continue because there is trust. People often don't believe each other, they afraid that that other person might hurt them. This is particularly obvious in Singapore, you can practically see it everywhere, even my mother told me not to trust other people than yourself. See, without trust, there will always be conflicts and wars. Is it so hard to trust other people? So what if you trust the other person and you yourself got hurt? At least you make effort to start/continue a relationship, that person will be at fault because he/she abuse that trust. Even though you were hurt because trusting other people, never give up in trusting people. A little trust can change the world and make the world without stranger, that is what I strongly believe.

Ultraman Taro: He taught us how to independent
Ultraman taro is the youngest among the ultra brothers, thus he depend a lot on his elder brothers. Again, this is especially obvious in singapore. People always depend on the others to do things and help them. They never think of doing the things themselves before seeking for help. Although friends are there for us, but we have to be independent in our lives.

Ultraman Leo: He taught us how to be a person with strong-will.
Ultraman leo, being the only ultraman not from M78 on earth. He was on earth because his home planet was destroyed, thus he vowed to protect earth because it is a second home planet to him. When he is fighting and if he lost, he never give up. He will always train and return with solution. Without a strong will, you tend to give up easily and then just forget about it. To get true success in life, first you must have strong will.

Ultraman 80: He taught us to treasure the unforgetable memories.
No matter what memories we had, bad or good, we should treasure it. We can always take it out from our mind and look at it, we will remember all the sweet and sour of our life. Even it is a bad memories, we can use it as lesson and guide for our life. Just treasure the memories.

Ultraman mebius: you will not fight alone.
This so far another best lesson I've learnt, friends are always with us, with you. Even I got my up and down in life, in the past, I'm always alone when I got my up and down. Not now, I got my buddies, they are always with me to go through all those. Another good quote, "the heart of believing can change impossible to possible" from ultraman mebius. Believe in yourself, your friends, your lover or whoever you can think of, because believing makes impossbile possible. You will not be fighting alone. Even when you fight at the areana, your supporters will be at your back, believing in you, so you must believe in yourself to make it.

This is the message that was conveyed to us by ultraman. Ultraman is not only for entertainment, but also education.

movie review again

Now, I had to admit that I watched a lot of movies recently. As I said before, movies and games are meant to be entertaining, so if it is a bad game/movie, you will swear. Yeah, this post is going to be another movie reviews. As some of you people who knows me, you know that I don't like horror movies. It is because of the weak storyplot, suck shit ending and totally not-scary scenes. But hey, this horror movie that I just watched wasn't that kind of horror movies that I don't like.



Yes, this is "rule #01". From the producer or director of the maid. Talk about "the maid", I had one simple complain of that movie. Why doesn't the dead maid the main ghost that appears in the movie? Instead, make way for a random maid got shadowed by the shadow of the coffin, then she just ran like 5km just to jump off a building to die. I mean, what the hell? There are a lot of high rise buidling in singapore, so why does she has to run so fucking far, just to commit suicide? That's bullshit.

The movie starts off by seeing a low ranked police giving fine to a driver who didn't tie safety belt. Then he checked the back of the car and discovered a dead girl body, suddenly the drive brokes out with a gun and shoot all limbs with a bullet, before he shoot at the head, the police and the the driver saw the back of the car rises and the girl sits up. The police then shoots the driver in the head and faints.

After he woke up and return to his post, the superior put him to a new department. It is miscellaneous affairs department, basically this department handle shits like ghostly stuff. This department is sad, only 3 staff, the police(let's call him A), his superior(let's call him B) and a adminstration staff.

So what this department do, you can never imagine police do all these shit. The department, handle ghost stuff, if a human or more people were possessed, they shoot them in the head. In the movie, it explains that once the ghost possessed someone, just a simple touch can possess another person and then control the body. What happened to the body previously, do they return to normal? No, their souls were shattered and left only an empty shell. Everything was done in secret, so no one ever saw a police going around shooting the possessed.

At the end of the movie, A got possessed by the driver he shoot at the beginning of the movie, through many plans from the driver's ghost. At the end, A shot B in the head and now he got the whole department under his control.

Ok, enough of the summarising. This movie is not bad for a horror movie, although the scary parts suck quite hard, because it is the worst scaring scenes I ever seen in my life. Most of the ghosts are just random wondering ghosts you can see on the streets, provided if you can see ghosts.

The story, yes, the story is pretty good for horror movie. There is actually a plot, a fucking plot, explaining why the ghost to do stuff to the living. Yet, it is very boring at the beginning of the movie, just like in the Jaw movie, the early part got too many dialouge, so many that I don't even want to count them. After A met his first ghost encounter as a police in that department, that is where the plot starts to brings up the hype of the audiences. Although having a decent plot, the ending sucks. I bet most of my friends don't understand the ending including me, until I analyse the whole movie after I got home and then tell them. Seriously, I have to get into the detail of the movie, analyse the plot and then come out of the explanation how the ending goes. Well, once you understand the ending, it's actually not that bad of an ending.

Actors....sigh*. I had only one complain of this thing, why the hell fiona xie got so little scenes in the movie? Why is there so fucking little scene she's in there? On the poster and the credit, you'll see "starring blahblahblah, fiona xie". Starring fiona xie? So why she appear so much lesser than other characters which are starring them too?

Another thing I find weird is the reason of why the police want to kill the possessesd? I mean, since the police dealing with ghost, that means the govt also admit the existence of paranormal phantasm. Sure that there is a way of getting ghost out of the body than killing them, may be they can co-operate with religion groups to deal with these cases. Another thing that I find it familiar of the police going around, shooting the possessed, it reminds me something from the past. Well, those who watch a lot of older movies and born around or before my time, you know what movie I'm talking about. Yes, ghostbusters...






A group of people running around the city, blasting ghost and then catch them. So the ghostbusters can invent gadgets to catch ghost, why not the government or the police? Talking about ghostbusters, the next post will be review on ghostbusters.

Overall, this movie is not bad, it's worth to watch it in cinema.

movie review

ok, before you people read this review, I want you people to take note of something. All these are just my opinion as an audience, other's may differ from me. Another this is that this review will have a lot of vulgarity, because I have no tolerance for bad movies and games. Ok, so I went to watch this movie with a buddy and friend. At first want to watch other show, but in the end chose this, since no one watched before. It is a new basketball movie, called slam. Yeah, slam a piece of shit onto the fucking face of the audience.



First thing I want to complain is the theme of the movie. Making a sport movie and just featuring sports alone, is the worst concept ever can be thought of for a movie. When you see a sport movie, it sure that it will suck hard because it is a mother load of shit, ready to be dumped on your head.

The story starts with a school kid, don't know what is the level, since it is such a piece of shit. Why? Because it didn't explain what level of education they are at, not even the age of the characters were mentioned. I guessed that they are just secondary school, judging from the face. The school kid named mouth plays basketball with a friend, monkey and monkey's cousin, jason....wait, mouth? monkey? Who in the world a parents would give that kind of shit name to their own son? Mouth? Monke? If that were the names given to them, why not name their son with the name like "shit", "fucker", "asshole"?

So when they play basketball in the school, the seniors came in and challenged them. Mouth and the company lost, then got into a fight with them. Mouth was actually training hard to be like his iodl, michael jordan. I think it's michael jordan, don't know much about basketball players. So they lost and humiliated, mouth was depress of being called "not suitable for basketball" by the seniors. What an asshole.

Mouth was living with the father, don't know where the hell the mother went. Can be dead or just fucking divorced for all I care. They took part a tournament held by adidas, because the seniors were taking part too, just to revenge. Before the tournament starts, a lot of stuff happened and mouth was locked by his father at home to study. He got no choice but to sneak out of the house to go for training.

So in the end, mouth and company finally to the final and lost.

Ok, here comes the complains. Why in the holy mother of fuck does this have to be made? This movie sucks so hard that it fucks, it is so fucking sucks that it don't deserve the timeslot in the cinema. Let's take a look at the description on gv.com.sg and the review from other place:

SLAM is set in the fast-paced, action-packed world of street basketball, in the rapidly modernizing city of Beijing, host of the 2008 Olympics. This story covers the strong universal themes of self-discovery, self-empowerment and the truth of never ever giving up. Featuring an all original soundtrack by platinum breaking Taiwan Hip Hop group Machi, and starring in his film acting debut Andrew Chou AKA: Machi Di Di.

"SLAM is undeniably one of the best sports movies made this year."
- MTV Asia Movie Review

"Exhilarating...action packed! Not to be missed."
- NBA China

Fast pace? Oh, you mean the shaking of the camera? It shake so hard that I can barely see what's happening on the scene. Talk about the camera, the camera work sure sucks. As a sport movie, the main thing is the sport itself. So in the case, it is the basketball. But why the basketball was offscreen so many times? I can't see the ball when it was shot or dunk.

Action pack? It should say, shit pack. Let's compare with another basketball movie, kung fu dunk. Yes, the one by Jay chou. In Kung fu dunk, the music and camera works very well with each other, it brings up the hype from the audience. Compare to slam, which don't even bring up 1% of hype from the audience. The music is dull, adding with the shitty camera works, it became a shitload of fuck, it's like a cruel joke to the audience.

Talking about audience, you guess how many people are in the cinema? 7... yes, it is fucking 7 and I'm not making this up. Despite it was just being broadcast, but before we went to watch it, there a few days interval only. So I supposed not many people watch it and I presume there will have a lot of people. Yet, only 7 audiences in the cinema including the 3 of us. Shit the fuck...

Another thing sucks is the name of the characters. The main 4 characters are called, mouth, monkey, jason and xiao xiao(roughly translated as small small). Like I said above, who the fuck would give such a bad name to their child. The name is so fucking weird that I don't even want to think of it.

One worst thing and the most important thing in movies, editing. The movie was VERY FUCKING poorly edited. Scenes when has to be cut were not cut, yet when it was not supposed to cut, it was being cut off. For example a scene in the movie, the father discover how bad the academic results of mouth was, he threw to mouth and ask him to pick it up and read. Guess what, the short one sec where mouth bent and pick up the result slip were cut. That is one of the part where it was not supposed to cut, it was being cut off. It's like the entire movie was poorly edited. Guess what? It is the fucking director do the cutting! So the director did such a bad job? He better not let me saw him on the streets, or he will fuck himself, forced by me.

One good thing about the movie and I mean only ONE good thing in the movie is that xiao xiao is a pretty girl, it steal the spotlight of the show.

This movie is so bad, that it is not worth to even mention the name. It shits for the birds. Yeah, for those who love basketball, it right up your alley...more like up your ass. Don't watch this movie, this one sucks ass.
