Golden Globe Prediction

Few hours to go before the ceremony begins and here I am making some quick predictions on the winner for the movies category:

Best Motion Picture - Drama
Social Network: It exceeds expectations from the audiences and critics with its story and strong performance. Not forgetting a fine work by David Fincher. The King's Speech might be a crowd pleaser, but it lacks its appeal to the audience. It is time to award the best picture to the movie which is critcally and financial acclaimed!!

Best Actress - Drama
Natalie Portman for Black Swan - Boy oh boy....i don't know how to describe her performance because she is outstanding in every sense and every angle. It is time for her to be recognised as a good actress as she was snubbed a few times. From slimming down to intensive training for ballet to powerful performance, she deserve it.

Best Actor - Drama
Colin Firth - The King's Speech
He was snubbed last year though he was damn great in A single man. But now he is back and this time he plays King George. This is an uphill challenge as it is not easy to emulate a King. Well, Hellen Mirren scored an Oscar for The Queen, so Colin Firth might just nick it.
James Franco is outstanding in 127 hours, who knows, he might just snatched it again from Colin Firth

Best Motion Picture - Comedy
The Kids Are Alright - Outstanding film comes with original plots and not forgetting daring and powerful performance, they deserve to win it. I don't see any other films deserve it.

Best Actress - Comedy
Annette Benning - The Kids Are Alright
It is hard to choose between her and Julianne Moore as they produce daring performance. To get an award, you must be daring (look back to all the previous winners!). Well, Anne Hathaway is daring enough in Love and Other Drugs, but the movie was critically panned. Let's hope that she will wins it.

Best Actor - Comedy
Jake Gyllenhaal - Love and Other Drugs
Powerful and daring performance. Has great chemistry with the opponent. Well done!

No time for comment. Just the winners for the below categories.

Best Supporting Actress
Amy Adams - The Fighter

Best Supporting Actor
Christian Bale - The Fighter

Best Animated Feature
Toy Story 3

Best Foreign Language Film
I Am Love

Best Director
David Fincher - The Social Network (Man...I hope Darren Aronofsky wins as well)

Best Screenplay
Aaron Sorkin - The Social Network

Best Original Score
Hans Zimmer - Inception ( I hope that A.R. Rahman will win for 127 Hours)

Best Song
Bound to You - Burlesque

That's all for now and do check out the winner list tomorrow...

Bye!!

Year 2010: From an average to student to the owner of a new house...

Wow, looking at my last blog, it was already like 9 months ago...I have no idea how things moved so fast in the next 9 months....Even me..myself can't imagine things can move that fast...

Looking back on the year of 2010, I was having a slow start as I was affected by my sub-par examination result as well as my eczema problems...At that time, I thought that it would be a bad year for me and things got worse when I was about to extend my length of my studies for another 1 year which really pushed me to the very low point of my life.

But things get a little bit better when I was given a chance to finish off my studies without extend my studies to a year with a little bit of gamble that I would have to take extra subjects. I was struggling for the entire semester as I would have to repeat the subject I failed two years ago as well as taking additional subject which I hate the most...With efficient effort and praying for a smooth sailing in my exam, my prayers was answered as I passed all the subjects.

I was given green lit that I could do cross institutional studies which I will be working full time and study for the one last subject at the same time. At that moment, I questioned my ability which I am not sure if I could really go through with it. If i fail it, I might need to fly back and study. I never thought too much but enrolled in it. I flew back to Malaysia and I work and study at the same time.

I will take that as my first full time job and I was given the post as the executive supervisor. For the first two weeks, I had nothing much to do and I was wondering how am I going to past through the time....few weeks later, I was given projects that I have to handle by myself and I was dumbfounded when I was given a list of about 40 projects that I have to handle. Luckily I have my colleague that helped me and gave me some useful knowledge to tackle the problem. At night, I would hide myself in the room and study. For the past few months, I have no idea what the hell I was studying. I was clear about the concept, but I could not really the assignments and tutorial questions. I was under enormous pressure when my parents decided to book the flight ticket back to Hobart for my graduation even though I haven't sit for the exam. I have no choice but to excel in my exam and thank God that I pass the exam and I manage to graduate.

I was in sigh of relief as if I can feel that I have put down a huge burden and I can fully concentrate in my work. Then I had a 10 days break which I managed to get back to the beautiful Hobart as well as Melbourne. I managed to catch up with my friends and had a lot of fun. Before the year ends, I was given an opportunity to buy a property. I made up my mind to buy it in 4 days. I know it is a bit exaggerate on the process on buying it but yea, I manage to run through a deal and signed the property contract on the last day of 2010.

It was an amazing year for me and I am really glad that things has been going through very will for me. I appreciate what God has given me and given me the ability and strength to make some critical decision which might chance or affect my little part of life. I really hope to have a nice year for this year and wishing everyone especially the readers all the best as well as best of luck.

Review: Kick Ass















"KICK ASS" KICKS ASS!!!

There it is, that's my review for this movie...Lolzz....just kidding. But that few words does tells you how great this movie is. It is like an all-rounder movie where I could not really see where the flaw is. Why couldn't all the superhero be like this...No offense to Spider-Man, Batman...(excluding Iron Man because he is quite funny as well)...

Kick Ass is an action-comedy which is funny, witty, twisting and not forgetting ultraviolent. This story is about a normal human being asking questions of why is no superhero in real life? Adding in some interesting subplot and twist making this movie having a very good and interesting plot. So, plot is a TICK!

Aaron Johnson gave a standing ovation performance who portrays Kick Ass himself. He gave the life to the character where ultimately succeed in every way and he is totally different from Angus, Thongs and Perfect Snogging...that's for sure...haha...Chloe Moretz (last seen in 500 Days of Summer) acts as Hit-Girl who almost steal the entire show from Kick Ass. She did a perfect job as a cruel assassins helping her dad to plot their revenge. Not gonna give out much here..haha...(She trained martial arts for 6 months to portray as Hit-Girl...Kudos for her)..Nicholas Cage portrays Big Daddy who I believe is half mad for training his own daughter to be a killer machine..haha..But he gave his performance of his life (of course....on par with Bad Lieutenant: Port of Call New Orleans) which I believe he is back from making bad movies. and McLovin' is back as Red Mist...not gonna tell you about him..haha..and Mark Strong once again portrays a villain and a drug lord. I am not sure if there is any person who can play such gruesome villain as him. He portrayed villains in the recent Sherlock Holmes, Rock and Rolla, and even Body of Lies...Gosh...He will play villains for the rest of his career....
Overall...solid performance from the actors as well... TICK!

Director Matthew Vaughn once again deliver nice soundtrack for his movie after Layer Cake. The songs and score fits perfectly in this movie giving extra punch and emotion for the movie. Well Done. The action scenes are unbelieveably good as they are stylish, violent and exceptionally bold, beautiful and breathtaking. I am just wondering how good it is going to be if it is projected digitally. It's gonna be a big WOW!!...The cinematography is unbelieveable as well as there are a few scenes that eventually will really make you say WOW again...

The movie of course is not meant to be watch by "Kiddo" as they are very violent, sexual references mild graphic sex scene and scenes of masturbation....(blek.....don't worry..no scenes of ejaculation...haha)...But I am glad to see this movie as I say...this is an all-rounder...Before you enter the cinema hall, keep that in mind that this is a superhero movie which brings you less logic as you could think of...just like spider-man or batman...Don't expect it to be completely logic...if you want to be logic, BE YOUR OWN SUPERHERO!

I could keep writing on this review but I believe that I have to stop now or i will be ruin the movie watching experience..haha...Overall, this movie worth every penny of yours....It will make you laugh, serious and may even cry. It is an high octane action movie comes with solid performances and interesting plot. It comes to highly recommended from me and I would watch it again if there is any of them volunteer to watch with me..haha..
Rating: 10/10!!! (sorry, I really can't find any flaws in this movie because it is just plain perfect!)

Review: She's Out of My League




















Hello, have not been blogging for more than a week and now I am back again. This time I am going to review a romantic comedy called she's out of my league starring Jay Baruchel and the ever gorgeous Alice Eve.

The story is simple. It's about a guy who had "defects" going out with a perfect girl where of course, it's kinda impossible in real life. So, this story is mainly about this two actors showing how they got hook up. In between, there would be some influence and obstacles....so...it's kinda predictable. The acting is good as Jay Baruchel acted as if he is really innocent. He was last seen in Tropic Thunder and he really deserve this role. Alice Eve...what can i say....she is gorgeous, sexy, elegant...and her body...phew...needless to say...she threw away her british accent and talk like a real american...isn't she a genius...??nah..maybe not...she is major in middle english..so...it might not be hard for her then..

The plot seems too predictable here and I believe you could guess the ending....yea...and this is an adult comedy..so expect it to be vulgar. The jokes are funny (at times I laugh out loud)...but some of them are quite lame...so...it's a hit and miss....(for example, the underwear jokes...lame...)

Overall, it is still a solid production deserve to be seen and have to congratule Jay and Alice for making such a cute couple in this movie!!! This movie is not meant for children as it has strong sexual references, language as well as nudity.

Rating: Suppose to be 6, but Alice Eve made it throught so it is a HARD 7/10!!

Movie Review Summary (January - March)

Time flies and it is almost the end of March ALREADY! yea and I have nothing much to write about my life as my life has been plain and simple (which I like...hate dramas)...haha..so I decided to share my movie experience with you guys.I will divide it into two categories which are movies watched in cinemas and some movies from other sources (ahem!)...and not forgotten the most valuable ratings and review summary (AHEM again..)for each of the movies. I really hope that you guys would bare with me because I have always wanted to be a movie critic and this is the best chance to see if you have the same movie taste with me or not...(which more than 90% of you disagree with me). Here goes the list:

Movies watched in Cinema:

1.) Valentine's Day 3/10 (Awfully produced, awful script, but solid performance though)

2.) Wolfman, The 4/10 (Strong performance dilluted with weak plots and unnecessary gore, Nice CGI though)

3.) Alice In the Wonderland 3D 6.5/10 (Strong performance and great special effects but not focus on plot)


Movies watched in other sources:

1) Surrogates 2/10 (Awfully done, awful performance from Bruce Willis, great CGI though)

2) A Perfect Getaway 7/10 ( unusual thriller packed with twisting plot, gripping and unforgettable ending)

3) Where the Wild Things Are 7/10 ( great work from Spike Jones with great CGI but came in an unusual pace)

4) Whip It! 8/10 ( great directorial debut for Drew Barrymore...Roller dearby has never look this good and anchored by the powerful and mesmerizing performance by the lovely and cute Ellen Page)

5) Invention of Lying, The 6/10 (Creative and funny but not the best from Ricky Gervais. Might be funny at first but feels annoying an couldn't wait for the end of it)

6) Food.Inc 10/10!!!! (A must watch documentary where you need to know where your food came from and how you should eat!)

7) It's Complicated 6/10 ( Strong performance by the 3 actors overshadowed by the miserable plot)

8) Saw VI 6.5/10 ( For me it's second best after SAW 1. Finally it comes with a story and not just torturing people without logical reason)

9) Law Abiding Citizen 6/10 (Strong performance from Gerald Butler but the movie tried to be clever and failed due to the familiar and illogical plot)

10) Couples Retreat 1/10 ( Way too awful to review...have no idea where to start...Awfully done from start to bottom...)

11) Michael Jackson's This Is It 7.5/10 ( A best way to pay tribute to MJ and a nice documentary concert as well!)

12) Jennifer's Body 6/10 ( Awful performance from Megan Fox....but at least the plot is fresh)

13) Fantastic Mr. Fox, The 9/10 ( Paul WS Anderson's vision on this movie has been wonderful...Strong performance..or should say voice and action by all the actors and not forgettingto mention that it is a very very cute movie!)

14) From Paris with Love 4/10 (A sublime and predictable plot powered by the strong performance of John travolta)

15) Poker King 1/10 (What an awful HK movie with bad acting...bad script, used too much slapstick....but made it a bit watchable by putting a few gorgeous girl...the title itself is awful....)

16) Black Dynamite 8/10 (Yea, it's a true blaxsploitation movie powered by the performance of Michael Jay White, it's funny, clever though the plot is familiar..but it is still kick ass!)

There you go, all the movies i had watched are reviewed here. Now, let me list out the most anticipated movie where the 1st would be the most anticipated:

1) Kick-Ass (YEA!!!....It's gonna be kick ass!!)

2) Iron Man 2 ( RDJ IS BACK WITH MORE BADASS BADDIES!!)

3) Tron Legacy 3D

4) Clash of the Titans 3D

5) She's Out of My League

6) The Last Song

7) How to Train Your Dragon 3D

8) The A-Team

9) Get Me to the Greek

10) Macgruber

11) A Nightmare on Elm Street

12) Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps

That's it for today! You can always simply comment on my taste of movie and perhaps sharing the movie that you anticipated...or maybe recommend me some nice movies. Bye and night!

Review: Alice in the Wonderland 3D



Hello, just came back from the screening of Alice in the Wonderland 3D....I couldn't believe the crowd as I have to queue on a ridiculous long line (went there 40 mins early) to get into the hall (no seat allocation)....phew...anyway....it's a movie by (yet again) Tim Burton with the collaboration of (yet again) Johnny Depp and Burton's wife Helena Bonham Carter (Burton just can't stop casting his own wife on any of his movies)...

Johnny Depp yet again messing up himself and dressed weirdly as the mad hatter, Mia Wasikowska (Aussie actress!!) as Alice...and Helena as the Red headed queen...

It is kinda simple and light tale saying about what happened to Alice in the wonderland and what is she going to do in it...(not giving out much..huh). The plot itself is very very simple which you just need to figure out yourself...The CGI effect in this movie could consider as GROUNDBREAKING...everything's seem so real in it and you can sit back..relax and enjoy the wonderland created by Burton....(he is a genius...no one suits better than him to direct this movie)...For the acting part....Johnny Depp gave his best as the mad hatter...Mia Wasikowska's Alice is no doubt very good....(she seem so natural)......as well as other cast.they did great......Very very solid acting......3D gimmick in this movie is alrite which you know you would expect it happen in any 3D movie...yea....watching this movie in 3D would definitely give you a great experience......

The bad part of the movie would fall on script writting....the movie has a thin plot where I suppose that Burton is suppose to improve on that..As it is too simple that anyone knows what is it about and going to be right after 5 mins the movie starts....way too predictable...Danny Elfman music is not that bad either...keep going..danny!!

Overall, it is an enjoyable film to be watched and shouldn't be missed on this overhyped film.


Rating: 7/10 (marks deduction on plot)

Review: The Wolfman



I went to the screening of THE WOLFMAN yesterday with high expectations...because it seems to be a solid production with award winning cast.....I have been a big fans of Benicio Del Toro and his last film which he portays as Che Guevara has been awesome. Back to this film...this film is definitely a no-no....Here's a very good reason.....I never expect that this movie would use cheap shock...It is a 150 million production....they should have think of something fresh and it really lack of genuine shock..The movie is way too gory as well...which for me..would be a little bit unnecessary as they could be focus more on the plot (which has no suspense at all). I have no comment on the CGI effect as they are actually quite good and seem real. The best part of the movie would be the acting powered by Anthony Hopkins, Benicio Del Toro, Emily Blunt and Hugo Weaving...Yea...they are all solid actors......
So, to make this movie a better film, they have to strip off some gore...the cheap shocks....and more momentum on the plot...(It just run merely a little bit more than 90 mins)......
For me...the most dissapointing part of the movie would be the cheap shock...really....it do shocked you...but they are all unnecessary....really couldn't believe that they put cheap shock in an expensive production... The best part would be the wolfman chasing scene as the CGI are done really great....The transformation of human to a wolf seems real as well....and of coz the solid acting by Benicio and the gang...
But overall...it is a dissapointing movie..

Rating: 5.5/10 (major points for acting and CGI)

I'm Back

Hello guys, it's been a while that I have stopped blogging...And suddenly...I feels like blogging again...It's always an on-off thing for me....Anyway...I have been in Malaysia for the past 3 months and back to Tassie two weeks ago....Nothing much has been going on in Malaysia...Working for the 9 weeks, went for a trip to Singapore, and Penang, then celebrate Chinese New Year with family...that's it about my Malaysia trip...I spent most of the time at home besides of working...so..life in Malaysia has been boring...The only thing that I do like to do in Malaysia would be hitting the gym...yea...I'm FIT...not FAT...everyone has been saying that I gained a lot of weight and fat and blah blah blah...I'm not saying that I'm 100% fit with strong biceps and triceps with an obvious 6 pack...i might say I am 60 to 70% to that...(which is good and satify for my..myself)...Not fancy about body building....it's all about being healthy...I don't look handsome....or should say ugly..So...a nice body would fit on any clothes (and that is important for me...haha) I have not been watching many movies in Malaysia..or perhaps should say just 4 which are New Moon (which sucks badly), Avatar 3D ( which is groundbreaking ), Sherlock Holmes ( which is suprisingly nice ) and Tiger Woohoo ( Yea...local movie which is ridiculous but funny).
The biggest thing that happened in my house would be the new 46 inch Sony Bravia LCD TV equipped with a new Blu Ray Home Theatre System....YES!!! It did happened thanks to my dad who has been visiting the electrical shops almost everyday after work ( which I kept telling my mum that they should buy it ASAP or I would have to follow him to the shops ) I only thought of just getting the LCD but not the home theatre system. Getting the home theatre system is kinda last minute decision from my dad which I was shocked that he made that decision ( He has been objecting of even buying one blu ray player ) I thought he was kidding when he was buying that system...lolzz...what a suprise!!! It turned up that my dad bought it and he subscribe to ASTRO which provides several High Definition channels. I was very happy with it and I will always remember that the first football match that I watch in HD would be arsenal vs liverpool!!! yea.....watching football in glourious HD is indeed a gvery good experience for me...too bad that I could only watch 2 live matches and I have to head back to Tassie. I miss the LCD and the system so much now...
That's all for today......gonna continue blogging tomorrow....yea....gonna end the blog with a movie review...bye and nite!!

REVIEW: FINAL DESTINATION 3D


Hmm...before I go into the review of this movie...I would like to mention about one of the trailer shown before the movie begins..I was suprised that the trailer of PARANORMAL ACTIVITY was shown in the cinema..never thought that it will reach Hobart...haha...this trailer is different from the ones shown in the internet...this trailer seriously gave me goosebumps...Fantastic trailer plus the perfect sound system in the cinema hall, this trailer really scared me and I know why this movie is so popular and defined as one of the most scariest movie in decades...Can't wait to watch it...
Alrite, let's get back to the review of final destination. Just the movie itself....this movie is almost a trash....incoherant plot, predictable outcome and some undone CGI as well.....but it still provide the basic needs as a thriller as it has brutal violent, gore and blood...Back ti 3D, the director really make full use of the 3D gimmik as it really made this movie watchable...blood splashing in front of you, sharp knife and stick pointing at you, huge radiator thrown at you, etc...but the most fun thing would be the 3D sex scene..yea....nice!! overall, this movie is still a thrill ride if you switch off your brain and enjoy the ride...

Rating: 3+3 (3 for movie and another 3 for 3D effect)

FAME (2009) MOVIE REVIEW


Ok, I am proudly to say that I am one of the first in the world to watch this movie..haha...yes...I am proud, at the same time feeling dissapointed with this movie...It is less energetic, tamer version compare to the original ones. This is not totally suck, but definitely an unnecessary remake. Ok, trying to keep the review spoiler free...It is basically about the teens entering the academy trying to be famouse based on performing arts. The movie is trying to show how the kids trying to be famous easily...and how would they end up to be...The movie tries to be serious "impress" our hearts but failed. The story itself failed badly with a lot of plot holes...This is obviously a movie suitable for the minor compare to the original which is very gritty...The teens did a great job here and the choreography is very good of course...but this is just one small part of the movie..not the main attraction of it...Naturi sang very well and the others are quite good especially the balled dancer which is simply gorgeous...Anyway...it is still worth checking out if you are a fan of musical....or else..i would recommend you to watch back the Oscar winning original version of the movie..lastly, i would post up the picture of the gorgeous lady!!!


Rating: 5.5/10

(500) DAYS OF SUMMER MOVIE REVIEW


Hmm.....it's kinda suprise when I watch this movie...becoz I was one of the 3 guys watching this movie in the hall...others would be the BFFs watching it...but..honestly, for this movie, it wouldn't matter if you watch it alone or not...because this is not a normal romantic movie or not even a pure comedy...what is the genre of this movie then??I am not sure how to classify it..but..I could tell you it is not a really good date movie..lolzzz...Given the record of highest grossing independent movie in the states..as well as the best review for rom-com genre...I would say that it certainly deserve the credit...Not sure about being an Oscar contender, but this is definitely the best rom-com of the year, or perhaps one of the best this year...This movie tells the story of Joseph Gordon Levitt who fall in love with Zooey Deschanel which the girl is not really want to be ain a relationship...so...the story goes on telling the life of Joseph with Zooey.....it sounds boring...but it doesn't at all....the movie explores the relationship between a guy and a girl and telling you what exactly is LOVE....I wouldn't disagree what the movie tries to tell us because it is kinda make sense as well...Not gonna tell you what is it because you have to watch it for yourself...Back to the movie, credit should be given to Marc Webb as this is his directorial debut (he is a MV director) for making such a great film and the dancing sequence is so cute...He made Zoeey Deschanel so gorgeous and most importantly cute...The chemistry between Joseph and Zooey are really perfect as if they are really together...With a great storyline...there is no reason of not watching this movie...Remember, this is not a love story...so..prepare for the unexpected from the film...It is such a shame that this movie is only showing in 1 cinema in the whole MALAYSIA...wtf.....Luckily I am in Hobart and have the chance to watch it...Once again, it shows the different of taste and culture from different country...they fancy dragonball instead of this romantic comedy...I would strongly recommend this movie....

Rating: 9/10 (lose a point becoz it almost made me cry in the end...swt)
