Jay Chou....?! acting in another movie?! o___o surely it will be as terrible as his previous film like in
Initial D! oh noez... *thats wat i thought b4 watching the movie*

but i must admit this was his best film to this date... its not strange because Jay wrote & directed this movie... being such a cool person, hes complicated enuff to write a special story full of deep meanings o___o... God dats so emoo....

'Can you cycle me home?' *teh shyness!*

I'll try not to give in too much on the plot, Ye is a music student in a high school... being a major in the piano, he is talented & obviously is the talk of everyone in skool.... he meets a gurl named Lu n eventually they became close... Lu rarely attends class n this makes Ye wonder where shes been... she told Lu it was a secret she cannot tell... shhh....!! o___o

the romance in this film is one of those simple luv stories, no drama.... just girl likes guy, guy likes girl, guy & girl hangs out together aloooot.....

Lonely Lovers Leaning.

I'll now tok abt Jay's performance in the film: sux as usual... u noe i oways thought he can do better... Jay tried hard to show his range emotions in the film but it still didnt work... his face didn't even budge an eyebrow =___= although i must say he speaks more loudly now n more daring to speak loud.... hey he's a king in the music world but in acting.... u noe.... o___o

Thank God Jay's supporting actress is not as bad as him... o___o Kwai Lun-mei saved the movie... although her performance was nothing out of the ordinary... although i would like to point out dat this is Jay's best performance yet...

Cool ma? just like me wor... LOL!!!

Eh hey! If theres any reason to like is the hardcore piano playing! The music theme focus mainly on the 18th century romantic music... Jay wanted to tribute Chopin(his favourite composer) into the movie... sum famous pieces were altered so nicely which shud deserve a say...

music selection is soothing to the ears... the film really showed alot of piano skills... its like the AND1 of piano playing... o___o

不能说的秘密!!


Out of all Jay's film he's made until now, I think this is the best so far... this film isn't.... goood in a sense, the plot definitely is special... n Jay shud be given props for his new experience in the acting industry~....

Here's the final verdict: -

Rush Hour 3

|

Directed By: Brett Ratner

Starring: Jackie Chan, Chris Tucker

Genre: Action/Comedy

Release Date: 9th August 2007

______________________________________________________

EVERYBODY WANTS KUNGFU FIGHTING!!! Rush Hour 3 isss...... the sequel to the Rush Hour series.... lol... its been 6 years since the last Rush Hour... will it be any better? or worse? O___O

Let's get straight to the point okay?! Rush Hour 3 is...... a fun type of movie. like a bunch of guys just wanna make a movie together... If reviewed professionally, this film SUX... lol... SO, im not going to review film professionally. In fact, im not even gonna rate it =___=

The best double team is going to Paris!


Rush Hour 3 plot is very 'cliche'. In fact the whole movie is quite cliche lol! Simple sypnosis! the film tells abt Lee & Carter once again fight their way through to investigate a case... on the way of course, funny things happen... kaka...

The movie, is short.... abt 1 hour 20 minutes... i noe its an okay time... but nowadays movies are like 2 hours loong.... i mean like, who makes movies dat short anymore?! haha... but its cool...

'You are George, The SuperSpy!'


The film is an action/comedy film... but if u hav paid attention, theres VERY FEW FIGHTING... i mean like... RELI FEW FIGHTING! i mean... theres like shootouts n stuff.... but few very hand2hand combat like the previous Rush Hours... most of the movie is comedy... Chris Tucker shines in this film!

But i cant help feeling dat Jackie Chan(being such an uber star) is helping Chris Tucker in his Hollywood career... just like the way George Clooney helped Matt Damon in Ocean's... how ironic \/(o___o )\/ lol

Kenji vs. Lee, Heaven or Hell?, Startoo!!


rawr! there's nothing much to say abt this move reli, its just sumthing fun to watch... this movie never meant to be taken seriously... Anyways these r a few facts i found abt Jackie Chan & Chris Tucker:


  • At the 1st Rush Hour, Jackie Chan was really poor at English, the director said he would hav to learn English while filming the movie.

  • Because of Jackie's poor command of English, Jackie & Chris weren't close at all... they would just meet during filming...

  • Jackie would avoid Chris because they never reli tok to each other much during offset...

  • After the 1st Rush Hour, Chris Tucker went to Hong Kong for travelling, Jackie showed him around...

  • After the 2nd Rush Hour, Chris Tucker surprised Jackie by visiting him at Hong Kong again lol..!! awww~

  • At Hong Kong, the locals thought was Chris Tucker was an NBA player...

  • during Rush Hour 3, there was a sewer scene(artificially made), Jackie pointed out dat if filming a Hong Kong movie, they would literally go to the sewer to film o___o

There u hav it folks! A fun film, worth watching.... on the TV! dont watch it at da cinemas! unless its RM6 n below.... lol peace out!

Genre: Animated Comedy

Release Date: 25th July 2007

_____________________________________________________

Wohoo! The Simpsons Movie is finally here! Been waiting for this movie for abt a year now... The film displays everything u remember from the Simpsons series, the 'noobness' of Homer ~D'oh!, the current world affairs, the Hollywood cameo appearance... yeah...!

from left > right: Maggie, Marge, Lisa, Homer, Bart

Hey eh! im a very BIG Simpsons fan!!! ask me a scene from any episode i noe.... because i've been watching almost 90% of all Simpsons episodes(abt 400 of them) for abt 5 times over & over again coz their SO GOOD!! so i had high hopes for this movie when it was announced.

For me, the film is just an extended episode of The Simpsons... The film had sum reli funny moments, & some quite cheesy.... yummmm, cheeeese... o___o


The Plot
As i said before The Simpsons had been on TV for 13 years now, having abt 400 episodes & 19 seasons! i've watch all of them until season 17... lol~ So basically The Simpsons have almost done everything... Will the movie be sumthing dat we've seen oredi?

Actually the film's plot is nothing i've ever seen so far(except Bart's one which they did it b4). The plot splits... Each Simpsons had their own story to show(except Maggie lol), which is awesome! in the end the stories collide making a single explosive movie...!

The Simpsons are in trouble again... buahaha

Looking at the big picture, the film wanted to raise awareness about the Environmental Health & Global Warming rawr! The film even parodied 'An Inconvenient Truth' into 'An Irritating Truth'. LOL!!!


The Cast
The Simpsons cast does not extend until The Simpsons family only... The Simpsons have more than 100 other characters which each hav their own story... So... who to put in the movie & who to take out? kaka...

Apparently each small character hav more than a few second appearance in the film like Ralph Wiggum, Nelson Muntz, not to mention Milhouse(Bart's best friend). XD The film also brings new characters to the film. but but but.... where's

Sideshow Bob?

Anyways lets tok abt the guest roles!!! The Simpsons have always been famous for it! i'd like to list some of the famous guest roles, but just think abt all the Hollywood actors & singers, they've done at least 1 episode of The Simpsons... XD

In the film, the guest roles consist of Green Day! Tom Hanks! & President Arnold Schwarzenegger!!

Green Day.

The Effects
Yeah every movie now is in 3-D!!! The Simpsons Movie brings back the classical 2-D sexyback!! i danno much abt effects but some parts of the film was done in cel-shaded animation... very nicely done... the simpsons now have shadows, lol they didnt show it last time... The movie scores guud in this 1 keke....

The angry mob(done in cel-shading)


The comedy part of the movie... had a different style at some parts... i felt kind awkward seeing Homer pointing 'the finger' & seeing Bart's 'ehem'... coz its not the Simpsons style... but dat didnt bring the film down though... it was still funny kaka...

But the truth is there are only a few moments of the film dat were REALLY funny... other parts of the movie was just worth a chuckle only... I was abit disappointed abt dat... I remembered when The Simpsons used to be very very funny...

"I'll teach you to laugh - at something that's funny!"

Spider Pig, Spider Pig~

The movie as i said before is just like another episode of The Simpsons, only longer... don't get me wrong, i luv them... but i noe a 20 minute episode of The Simpsons funnier than the movie...

If you guys really wanna c the full humour of The Simpsons, i think the series is much better to watch & the one u shud remember! Still, the movie is worth a watch... go ahead! lol... D'oh!

Here's the final verdict: -

Storyline: 8
Acting(voice): 10
Effects: 10
Audio: 7
X-Factor: 7
Others: 37/50

79% D'oh! sorry : (

Transformers Film

|

Directed By: Michael Bay

Starring: Shia LaBeouf, Josh Duhamel, Tyrese Gibson, Megan Fox, Peter Cullen(voice), Hugo Weaving(voice)

Genre: Live Action Film

Released Date: June 28 2007

__________________________________________________________

LOL.... becoz of high demands.... i'm reviewing Transformers the film. I forever will be a fan of the Transformers mainly becoz i grew up playing wif the transformers toys!! So fans definitely will remember the classic transformers.... So the film had to live up to it's name....

Storywise, the film does not follow its original Generation 1 plot but instead creating a new storyline for the franchise...

This very 1st poster was released during 2006.(aw the anticipationz! >___<)

Having said that.... The film cannot be simply made by amateurs film makers.... Hollywood Demi-Gods came to the plate to craft this movie! Director Michael Bay, producer Sir Steven Spielberg, not to mention the original voice actor for Optimus Peter Cullen is also included to bring Optimus memorable voice back alive...! 'I AM OPTIMUS PRIME BEYOOTCHS!' XD

OOoookayy.... now.... The film is rated PG-13... the reason for that is so dat younger audience can watch the movie.... is dat a gud choice? well... i guess they had to do it becoz kids luv it sooo much... n this explains alot abt some of the comical element in the movie although the bad side is: less violence... haha... a small problem... still understandable...

There is 3 ways to view this movie... 1st: The Military Man's view, 2nd: Citizen's View & 3rd: Transformers's View XD..... which 1 shud i start 1st ler o___O


1st: The Military Man's View
The film wanted to show a military side of the movie... wat i meant was making the soldiers as main characters... it wasn't necessary... maybe they wanted to add abit of a love story in there? still the romance part didn't work for me haha... i wanted more action.... basically the main characters in the military side are Capt. William Lennox(Josh Duhamel) & Sgt. Robert Epps(Tyrese Gibson)... Capt. Lennox is a married man on duty serving the army... his pregnant wives was always waiting for his return... Everything was fine, until an unknown helicopter arrives & lands...

Wtf?

It then suddenly transforms! Blackout appears - an attackz!!

Them bicthes got ownned~! Blackout is the biggest Transformer in the film. i think there's a reason to it... becoz he carries Scorponok inside of him.... anyways now we're focusing on the humans...

The military side displays some of their defense & offense strategy in the movie... which is a nice element into the movie... the movie shows some of military's modern vehicles & how they use them... You can c all of dat in the fight between the soldiers & Scorponok... one of the memorable moments in the film...

Scorponok jumps out from the sand dunes.

Capt. Lennox & Sgt. Epps will have minors roles later during climax & end...


2nd: The Citizen's View
hohoho.... The Citizen's View is the more important view, showing the beginnings of an adventure for a boy named, Sam Witwicky(Shia LaBeouf)... his supporting character is his HAWT girlfriend Mikaela Banes(Megan Fox).... Shia's performance in the movie is outstanding ler! haha.... i enjoy seeing his comical face in the movie.... although sumtimes i feel his face is a bit too 'baby-face' for the role.

Sam Witwicky is getting his very own car.

As for Megan Fox..... i dunno izit her or her role.... i feel dat she doesn't show dat much emotion... happy oso like dat, scared oso like dat.... LOL... but i didn't reli noticed her face... was too distracted by 'sumthing else'... >___<

I dunno which is hotter: Mikaela, Bumblebee, or me.... \/(o___o )\/

In the movie Shia's new car, a 1977 model Chevrolet Camaro happens to be a Transformer called Bumblebee... Bumblebee is a spy for the Autobots... & due to previous battles wif the decepticons, his voice box was brokened by Megatron, so he cant speak... Sam will soon discover the truth of it. Sam is important to the Transformers because he carries an item that shows the location of sumthing the Transformers r looking for.... so therefore the plot twists around him....

"Where is the spectacles?!" *Raawr*
Sam izint the bravest of the humans.... but in the cartoon he was damn brave! lol.... so its kind of a let down... i guess he is replaced to be the funny 1...

Basically the humans in this film have more airtime... cut cost? lol... i dunno... i guess becoz most of the action parts r taken over by the Transformers... so balanced!


3rd: The Transformer's View
Yoyoyooow.... the most exciting part is here... The Transformers view ookaay....! The Transformers r divided into 2 groups: The Autobots & The Decepticons. Now the Transformers are aliens... which r electronic.... LOL... they can take machine form, & change to others forms as well... Frenzy & Bumblee both change from 1 form to another... their original look are called protoforms.... get the fact straight yo... n dont u just luv it when they transform?

Ironhide in his protoform.

The Autobots consists of: Autobots on the move~

The Decepticons consists of:
shh... Megatron is sleeping... -___-

I bet the classic Transformers fan discussed alot abt the old vs. the new look... I hated the new look at 1st! haha... but as time passes i thought the new look was better... like Bonecrusher & Starscream... i hate the new Megatron though.... O___O ugly.... Old Megatron rox...

Old Starscream(1987)
New Starscream(2007)

The Transformers looks awesome & lively... especially when they speak.. The cool part is they now hav a normal mode & battle mode... theres a few problems though... In my opinion the transformers shud hav a little bit more airtime... i feel dat there needs to be more conversation between Transformers... if u noticed when watching the film, they dont reli tok to each other so much... LOL... just a few sentences only... The longest conversation is between Optimus & Megatron lo... most of the conversation takesplace between human & transformer.


'Don't hate me because I'm ugly' :'(

One mentionable note is that some Transformers... only have few airtime... like Scorponok & Bonecrusher... after a little display... suddenly no more in for the rest of the movie haha... weird....

Bonecrusher appeared in the film for about 3 minutes only. too bad...

As the movie reaches to the end... there is a scene where the Transformers finally can kick each others ass! yes... this part is awesome!! although i must say... during dat part... sum of the fight scenes are very blurr.... i cant tell whose who at sum parts... they wanna save cost hur... lol...

Now comes to my final comments of the movie... I didn't reli liked the ending... wasn't wat i expected... haha... There's going to be a Transformer 2 coming... i hope to c more conversations between Transformers... & i wanna c Starscream betray Megatron like one Generation 1... yeah!
this a movie u shudn't miss... It's good.... but not f**king good.... haha... go watch it!

Here's the final verdict: -

Storyline: 7
Acting: 8
Effects: 10
Audio: 8

Walk The Line

|

Directed By: James Mangold

Starring: Joaquin Phoenix, Reese Witherspoon, Robert Patrick, Ginnifer Goodwin

Genre: True life story/ Romantic film

Released Date: November 18 2005

_________________________________________________________

Now this is a movie dat i can watch a thousand times and not get tired of it. The movie tells the true story about singer/songwriter
Johnny Cash(played by Joaquin Phoenix). This movie is a true life story yeah, but it focuses mainly on Johnny's romance with fellow singer/songwriter June Carter(played by Reese Witherspoon). If u ask me... i'll tell ya this is one of the best love movie dat i'veseen haha.... right beside another love story The Notebook.


The movie starts off with Johnny reflecting his past back when he was still little. Being the lazy one of his siblings, his father, Ray Cash(played by Robert Patrick) didn't favour him dat much. Johnny then he was blamed for the death of his elder brother and dat made his father even furious.

SKIP abt 10 years from there, Johnny now became elder and lived his independent life outside his hometown. this part of the movie shows the beginnings of Johnny's singing career and how he was able to make it. 1 notable thing abt this movie is dat it is able to balance the movie showing Johnny's singing career & his love life.

I will remember this movie more for its romantic side. reli touching laa lol.... eventually Johnny became more popular n ends up having a gig on as part of a concert tour. he eventually meets June Carter becoz she happens to be in the tour also. In the movie u'll c other famous singers like Jerry Lee Lewis & Elvis Presley lol zomg....

Johnny Cash sings 'Folsom Prison Blues'

On the musical side.... Audio reli scores HIGH! the movie reli delivers when it comes to bringing back alive the old 60s - 70s music. In the movie u'll hear alot of Johnny Cash's hit songs like 'I Walk The Line' & 'The Ring Of Fire'. there r alot of duets also especially between Johnny & June. u'll hear a little bit of Elvis & other songs from the era... ahaha.... makes me feel like i've missed alot of the gud stuff in the past.

Johnny Cash & June Carter.

On the romantic side, the relationship between Johnny & June becomes very complicated as both of them are married & have kids. The romance had to end becoz there is oways the feeling of responsibility dat both of them had. SO.... this is y this movie is nice.... its the DRAMA! haha.... its the romance i guess dat makes the movie memorable.

'It's not wrong June....'

Like every famous singer, Johnny had problems wif his addictions - drugs. the film also made an emphasis on Johnny's problems & his attempt of redemption. haha.... reli terrible story.... dats y kids.... its not nice to take drugs.... haha.... his addiction was his downfall and everything else fell down with him.

June helps Cash with his problems.
Haih..... The romance between Johnny Cash & June Carter prooves that true love does exist...... they are the best couple of the planet LOL. i had doubts dat this is a true story haha..... but yet again, anything is possible..... If u like music & enjoys watching romantic films, this is a must watch.... i dunno wat else to say.... it's reli gud.... go watch it..... ; )


"Now I know I said and done a lotta things—that I hurt you—but I promise, I'll never do that again. You're my best friend. Marry me"
