Movie Reviews VIII - Part 2

1) Nightmare Detective : A Japanese detective investigates two mysterious suicides, somehow connected as the two victims dialed "0" on their mobiles moments before their death. The detective comes to learn of a man who has the supposed ability to manipulate people's dreams, and if the case is going to be solved, the detective succumbs to the realization that she must dial the mysterious "0" herself...

My Rating and Views : 5/10. Japanese horror movies seems to be disappointing, as compared to Korean and Thai horror films... This movie is exciting at the start where it shows that this kid has the power to enter into people's dream, helping them solved their problems and save them when he has too... But he suffered from some side effects and doesn't want to "see" anymore tragedies from happening again... towards the center, i nearly dosed off... towards the end, I fliped... The ending is difficult to understand if you failed to watch the meaning... The killer is liked one uncle who drink coffee with one leg up on his chair at any local coffeeshop... Theres no style in the killer at all... (Compared with Light in Deathnote...). In short, don't waste your time... Go and watch 200 Pounds beauty for the 2nd time is so much better....

2) The Hills Have Eyes 2 : What started with the Carter family, clearly didn't end with the Carter family. As part of a routine mission, a unit of National Guard soldiers stop at a New Mexican outpost only to find the isolated research camp mysteriously deserted. After spotting a distress signal in a distant mountain range, the team decides to commence a search and rescue mission into the hills. Little do they know that these are the very hills that the ill-fated Carter family once visited, and that a tribe of cannibalistic mutants lies in wait. And this time, there is an even larger force of evil at work that is intent on the soldiers' very destruction.

My Rating and Views : 8/10. Before I start, let me reassure you guys that The Hills Have Eyes and The Hills Have Eyes 2 is not linked at all... its just that the same monsters, hiding in the Hills, Tunnels and Mountains, killing men and raping girls... Part 1 is all about a family having a family outing and was stuck in the middle of nowhere... Part 2 is a group of Soldiers on Mission (basically petrolling) where one by one they got killed and one lady is raped... The killings are as gruesome and disgusting as part 1. I think part 1 is nicer... You watched part 1, You will get angry... You watched part 2, not much feelings and anger towards the "monsters"... watch both and you will know what i mean... But still, not a bad movie to catch!

3) I Am A Sex Addict : Autobiographical filmmaker Caveh Zahedi has made a cult career of his unabashed willingness to be vulnerable on camera. I Am a Sex Addict, a comic reconstruction of his ten-year struggle with sex addiction, is one of his most ambitious, hilarious confessions yet.

My Rating and Views : 8/10. I promised to review on this months ago...Now, there is it! I did not catch this on the big screen but on a DVD which i borrow from a friend of mine... It is a very interesting movie... It talks about how this fucker goes around looking for prostitudes and ONLY wanted a BLOWJOB! He goes home feeling guilty about it and TELLS his Wife! At 1st, his wife forgive... then He did that again, feeling guilty and TELL his Wife AGAIN! His Wife cannot take it any further and divorced him. Then he remarried... He told his 2nd Wife about it... His 2nd Wife "don't mind" and even follows him to prostitudes' house! At last, she became a drunkard... He stops his 2nd Wife from drinking but failed...until she flared at him and tell him off.... saying why does he goes to prostitude but not to her.... divorced again...then show ended when He got married again the 3rd time.... Ladies and Gents...this is a TRUE LIFE STORY which really happen to this IDIOT.... Pretty interesting! He really shows the pictures and short clips of all his ex wives / relatives during the show...to proved that this movie is a real life story... Did a researched on him... this Idiot really exists....

Well friends, thats all for the moment. I will be going for outfield next week and my whole week is burned.... anyways, not much good movies to watched right now... the only one worth waiting is Spiderman 3.... Stay tuned for more reviews yah?! Take care and have a great week!

Movie Reviews VIII - Part 1

Hi Guys! Sorry for the late reviews because i'm very busy these 2 weeks. I will review all 6 movies at one go. (Will break them into 2 parts). Here goes, Movie Reviews VIII - Part 1...

1) Turistas : A group of international tourists seeking fun and adventure in Brazil get a lot more than they bargained for in the suspenseful horror film TURISTAS. Written by first-time screenwriter Michael Arlen Ross and directed by John Stockwell (BLUE CRUSH), TURISTAS, the first American film to be shot completely in the South American nation, is set in the Brazilian mountains, where Alex (Josh Duhamel); his sister, Bea (Olivia Wilde); and her best friend, Amy (Beau Garrett), are preparing for an eco-tour. But when their bus crashes, they are stranded with a group of locals as well as a handful of other tourists, including Finn (Desmond Askew) and Liam (Max Brown), two Brits looking for fast times and hot women, and Pru (Melissa George), a beautiful Australian traveling on her own who takes an immediate liking to Alex. In the middle of nowhere, they find a little oasis in a surprise sandy bar, where they get to know each other, drinking and dancing until they wake up the next morning, having been drugged and robbed of just about everything, with all remnants of the bar gone. They walk into an unfriendly town, but the only person offering any help at all is Kiko (Agles Steib), who might not exactly be leading them to safety.

My Rating and Views : 2/10. This movie is disappointing. The plot is lousy and its not scary either. Really nothing much to comment about. It is not even worth a $7 ticket. The only thing which lure people to watch is either a movie goer liked me or the scary movie poster which kind of give people the feeling of a "horror movie". Trust me, its not. Only some cheap trills here and there...

2) Shooter : “Shooter" is an action-packed thriller starring Mark Wahlberg as Bob Lee Swagger, a former Army sniper who leaves the military after a mission goes bad. After he is reluctantly pressed back into service, Swagger is double-crossed again. With two bullets in him and the subject of a nationwide manhunt, Swagger begins his revenge, which will take down the most powerful people in the country.

My Rating and Views : 8/10. This movie is exciting and really worth your money. The plot is good. Although is a typical kind of "Ex - Militarian being put back on a mission" kind of movie, its still worth your $9.50. What to looked out for is the different weapons he is holding. His impressived sniper skills and clear headed mind when he wants his revenged or rather, clearing his name for himself... Not a bad movie to catch!

3) 200 Pounds Beauty : Hanna is a lip sync vocalist for Ammy, the famous Korean pop singer. Even though Hanna is always ignored due to her appearance, she has always been a bright and happy girl until Ammy humiliated her in front of Sang-jun, the one she secretly admired. Finally, she made a life-changing decision: to have a major cosmetic surgery… Will this move, will her unrequited love get any return?

My Rating and Views :10/10. Oh my god.... This is a MUST WATCH movie! Yes... People might say it is liked the Andy Lau and Sammi Cheng (Love on a Diet - Shou Shen Nan Nu) movie, but still, its good! Its funny and meaningful towards the end. The songs sang are great! Ave Maria, Star, I Miss You Much, Standby Me, Heaven Is A Place on Earth...etc... are all the songs sang in the movie! Great voice, handsome and pretty actor/actresses... One thing which shows very clearly in this movie is how differently ladies are being treated when they are "Fat and Ugly" vs the "Slim and Pretty..." haha... hmm... Very true... Watch it! Buy the Soundtrack OST! Its definately worth your money!

Movies Review VII

Seems like more and more people are reading my blogpage. Haha... Over the past 3 weeks, friends around me kept asking when is my next Movie Review going to be up. Movie bloggers even invited me to join their "team"! haha.. I am very busy with training as the course just kick off. Things just began to settle down abit. Finding time to blog this Movies Review VII. But, i never stop watching movies over the weekends! There goes!

1) Meet The Robinsons : Lewis is an orphan who dreams of finding a family. His journey takes an unexpected turn when a mysterious stranger named Wilbur Robinson whisks him away to a world where anything is possible…THE FUTURE. There, he meets an incredible assortment of characters and a family beyond his wildest imagination, The Robinsons, who help lead him on an amazing and hilarious adventure with heartfelt results.


My Rating and Views : 7/10. Many people think that I'm mad... the comments i get is, "Wa lau...watch cartoon!" But guys, i tell you.. Besides My all time favourtie, The Lion King and The Little Mermaid, this is the 3rd "cartoon" movie i will recommend you to watch. Its kind of interesting, heart-warming and educating. Take away this mental model that cartoon sucks! If you think Shrek is a nice movie, this one is better...

2) The Number 23 : The psychological thriller "The Number 23" stars Jim Carrey as a man whose life unravels after he comes into contact with an obscure book titled The Number 23. As he reads the book, he becomes increasingly convinced that it is based on his own life. His obsession with the number 23 starts to consume him, and he begins to realize the book forecasts far graver consequences for his life than he could have ever imagined.


My Rating and Views : 9/10. Jim Carey is slowing moving away from his comedian character in the movies... In this show, he is more "serious". I love movies with a little twist towards the end. This show just keeps the excitment going . I love the part when Jim Carrey almost finishing reading "The Number 23" book, he found out that the last chapter is actually missing... This part keeps all the people really excited... As much as Jim Carrey wants to know the last chapter, we want to know it too!!! Watch it! Definately worth your money!

3) TMNT : Strange events are occurring in New York City, and the Turtles are needed more than ever, but Raphael, Donatello, and Michelangelo have become lost and directionless. With the city at stake, it's up to Leonardo and Zen Master Splinter to restore unity and ninja discipline to the Turtles.

My Rating and Views : 4/10. When the start of the movie shows that Shredder was dead, I disappointed... When i saw the Turtles, they seems to shrink... Small bodies with big face... The turtles are not united at all... Doing their own thing and stuff... My favourite character, Donatello, did not really use his brains or invent any impressive equipments to fight their enemies... Tell you the truth, halfway through the movies, i sleep... Really boring until towards the end. Don't waste your time and money... If you really want to watch "cartoon", choose Meet the Robinsons instead...

Alright guys, these are the 3 movies for now. I had already watched another 3 movies. They are 200 Pounds Beauty (A must watch movie!), Shooter and Turistas. This weekend, i will also watch The Hills Have Eyes 2 as well. I did not forget that I'm supposed to review on this movie called, "I'm A Sex Addict". Ok, thats all for now...Stay Tune!

The Anchor to One's Heart

It has been near a month since i've last blog. Kind of busy with training. Yesterday went to meet up secondary school friends to have dinner/movies with them. When i walk pass this M1 shop, I cant resist but to apply the internet 3G Vodafone Mobile Connect (now im using it...haha). Super useful for me as there is no internet connection in camp. After which, met up with Ah Heng and chatted with him till 3am... Woke up at 5am, followed my Dad's taxi to camp as my car was in workshop...

After 2 weeks of confinement of the cadets, today is finally their Parents Visiting Day. Parents came flooding in like nobody business, asking for directions, carrying big/small bags, sweating away... Just to see their sons... It reminds me of the past... where 4 years ago when i'm a trainee, I too, am waiting impatiently for my parent's arrival...

Now I'm standing here as a liasion officer for my 100 trainees, making this event as smooth and as memorable for them as possible. Thats my job for today. Although this is the 3rd time I'm doing this as an instructor, it still never fails to bring back memories of the good old days... Believe it or not, its very heart-warming.

To me, Family always play a stedfast role in our life... i called it,

"The anchor to one's heart..."
