Herro Everyone
Oh Yea this one.... A direct to video for Spore. But this is actually pretty good. Produced by Wes Anderson from Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou, I know this one is no ordinary family flick. The story is structured around a normal family where the parent is undergoing separation. Ok well not a normal family. Dad is a dickhead who thinks he is super clever and very egoistic. Mom is unfaithful once in a while and is not contented with who she is (wife, mother) esp when she has literary talents. Older bro wans to fuck(He's about 16, 17) and younger bro jus discovered masturbation(he's about 11, 12?). As the family breaks down, every member has their own issues to grapple with too. This movie is good at taking the most difficult time anyone can ever relate to at different points in their lives and make it all happen at the same time in the same family, in this film. Imagine Dad can't take losing a game of ping pong to his own kid or a game of tennis to his wife, and having his own child say to him: suck my cock. Well, as I said, this is no family flick. The dialogue cuts like knives and at certain points, I felt the pain.
Latest update: Scream 1 and 3 has been finally released on video uncut at M18. Heh I've been waiting since secondary school. I won't be surprised if Scream 2 comes out as NC16 cos compared to 1 and 3, 2 is chicken shit.
Hmmm...to be honest I was never quite interested in Judi Dench. Cos she looks boring (and old). Esp when she walked away with Oscar Best Supporting Actress with a 8 second scene in Shakespeare in Love. But what drew me to Mrs Henderson Presents was the display of nudity on theatre at a time where England was conservative. And war came in. Interesting? Ya I think so. The songs are nice and the performance is dazzling. And the nudity is NOT erotic. Its actualli rather artistic as the laws governing the display of nudity in the film is that they must be like those portraits in the art museum. They cant move. So the naked chicks are all stationary. Ok tat aside. I actually find this movie very cheeky. Haha. All the old people inside are very cheeky too. And the people watching these art shows are all soldiers. Which tells us something very true even up till today. A man is at his peak of horniness when he's in army. Very True.
Reel life turns real life. Ok the progress of the story is a chain reaction. Nothing that happened in this movie was deliberately planned, except for the murder la of course. Firstly this movie is about people in the show-business. Fame, money, luxury. Murder, cover-up, sex. Is this the LA Confidential of 2005? Cos there is so much in this movie tat reminded me of LA Confidential. This movie starts off ok...i was dozing off but something happened and I was glued to the TV from then on till the end. Its quite a good detective show as you cant reali tell what e fuck is really going on unless you are the culprit or the corpse or the producer. Yea. So its not cliche. Good. But sorry Hung Yi, the dialogue is not as witty as i imagined. Haha... But the film is interesting as the visual is closely linked to the narration. Eg. Narrator says that this is the part where the good guys despite getting shot dun die. So the main character who was injured is lying on the hospital bed when the other guy who is supposedly dead comes to visit him in a wheelchair. Then the narrator goes on saying like why not jus bring everybody back to life. Haha then we can see all the bad people shot in the head in the chest all the dead corpse walking into the hospital room all looking fine. But later they all go away when narrator says: But it will never happen. There!
I like this version of the poster as compared to the Spore one. This one more class. Anyway Cache is indeed a well made movie. I like the way the credits opened. I cant reali describe it but its the first time i saw opening credits appearing like tat. The whole movie was intercut with images from the video the psycho in the movie took of the family he was terrorizing. And that is a lot of minutes of looking at the same thing. Boring at first but later on it gets creepy. The psycho forced the main character to dig up a childhood memory he wans to forget and bring that dreadful reality in his face. and the climax is very IN HIS FACE (inclusive of the blood splattered as shown above). The trauma also brings out the paranoia and anxiety experienced by this particular family. The Dad. The Mom. The Son. And honestly it could be any family. But I dun like the ending cos there isn't like one. I'm still thinking about whether it was something i missed thus i din get i. Fuck.
Akira Kurosawa is regarded as one of the most prestegious director of modern film. Yes? No? Well I've only seen this so i cant reali compare. But I know Seven Samurai and Ran are classics. Though I heard from people how bad they were. NVM. Dreams is a colourful collection of 8 stories which are all dreams. The images you see in this film are supposed to be something you onli see in dreams. So it is surreal. And the mood of each and every short is very well paced. It feels like you are watching the same movie but actualli they are all different. Cinematography is beautiful and I wonder if there were any digital effects. If not I would love to go Japan sometime. But camera work is shaky. So tats a minus right cos when we dream they are not shaky hor? Either way....A great piece of work lor.
By the way Mirrormask And Final Fantasy: Advant Children, 2 very CGI films which are supposedly very outstanding, did not even register as nice to me. Both i watched halfway and gave up. But they have merits la. Mirrormask is very inventive I must say. And for FF7, im quite surprised that I din like it for someone who spent countless nights playing FF back in those days. I guess its just because i forgot the story. Cos this is connected to the original FF7 u see.
I wanna catch Lie With Me. Supposedly the most sexually explicit film to hit cinemas as of now. Just wanna check out how explicit it is. Anyway its cut. So no matter what there is still something explicit not seen here. And reviews told me its not just about sex, it actualli has some heart. Ok la. Go try. I dun mind watching R21 shows cos I know I cant get them on DVD here later on.
AV is a Hong Kong show about uni students who took loans to hire a Japanese adult film actress to come to HK to star in their movie. Actualli they jus wan to fuck her. Ok but this is not just another dumbass horny HK CAT III movie. In fact, AV is not even rated CAT III. Well the movie discussed how youths can feel lost and confused at a certain point of their lives. How they are driven by physical attributes more than any other things. And how, from the Japan AV actress point of view, people exploit other people's determination to be famous to earn money. How a person can dun care about who u sleep with but must now control everything when emotions are now involved. Hmmm. Good stuff. And the girl is cute too. I dunno how she took it doing it with the fat dude who drools.
Watch Movies with me leh......I'm sian of watching alone.
Ok...I confess. When this realli happened back then, despite all the political issues and agony surrounding the 9-11, I actualli tot of how the movie based on it will look and when it will actualli come out. Well it actualli came out sooner than I expected. But this Oliver Stone pic looks like an emotional one...so i guess the story probably starts off after the collision and the collapse. But still watch it anyway. Be prepared for angry walk-outs and tearful breakdowns.
Oscar Best Foreign Film 2006... Just watched it for the sake of the honour it received lor.
Looks like a Documentary to me. On censorship. This topic interests me since sec sch. Those in my class would know right?
Park Chan Wook...Woohoo...I liked Oldboy. And just like night, I liked this as well. I never derived more satisfaction then the one i get from seeing the bad guy getting tortured over and over again, with different weapons! Yummy Revenge flick.
Firstly i think this poster will nv make it to singapore. Nudity. And I believe this is like a biopic of The Rolling Stones. So if anyone would be interested it would be Guang. Right bro?
A same brand of horror flick as per The Devil's Rejects and The Hills Have Eyes. In your face GORE. woohoo. and This is a horror-medy? perhaps? cos the story is kinda ticklish.
Gore. Gore. Gore. But this looks like its gonna suck.
From the writer of Minority Report. And with Keanu Reeves. Hmmm i suppose it will be futuristic with a hint of Matrix and Constantine and the poster looks like its inspired from V for Vendetta.
Violent western flick. I guess I would only watch this becos the story is a bit gripping (brothers killing brothers) and because Guy Pearce is inside. Great actor by the way. Memento. LA Confidential.
Gael Garcia Bernal. Yeah..haven seen him since Bad Education and Motorcycle Diaries. Great actor too. And a daring one(Y Tu Mama Tambien). Well the King is about him finding his Dad. And his name is Elvis. But i bet with you...no link.
Gore!!!!!!!...I saw a clip of the fingers getting sawed off. Goodish Fuck Shit
Another documentary. This is directly for the heart string one. But I scared it might be sian.
Is this another remake of the classic? Or it jus happens to be titled the same? Anyway Halloween H2O sucked. That guy (whoever is making this) better do better than that. I still like Dawn Of the Dead the most. the 2005 one please.
My God. I loved the soundtrack. And the Monkey is super cute. Hor? Super cute hor?
I bet this is a political satire. But whatever the case it will poke the politics of everything. If I have the time I might catch. Cos Im not interested in politics...actualli
