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.
