I went and watch this at MBO, Harbour Place Mall, Klang. It was after work and I went with Alyssa to watch this movie. It was nice and I was surprise at the amount of things cover in part 1. It was like nearly the whole book.

I was laughing continuously in the cinema at the funny part and Alyssa had a shock of her life as I was laughing loudly in the cinema. Hahaha...but that is how I watch movie. If it is funny, I would laugh :) Overall, I would give it a good rating compare to the previous Harry Potter movie which are too draggy. But this one is good :)

Want to know how the movie is? Read the bookor watch it as I do not want to be a spoiler :)

Big Soldier, Small General

This movie is due to be out next week in conjunction to Chinese New Year but Tommy won 4 tickets to watch the premier in Midvalley ^_^ The other 2 people who went with us was Nicholas and Noeleen. It is nice to meet up with Noeleen and hang out for I haven't been out with her for AGES!!!

Haha...we went there and have dinner at the food court. Finally, after so long, I manage to lay my hands on some Japanese food. I do miss eating in Sushi Zanmai :( Planning to go there eat with colleagues if have the chance. After dinner, we headed to the cinema to watch the movie.

Since it is not release yet, it is not fair for me to reveal the story. Overall it is a good action movie as you know Jacky Chan is acting in it ^_^ You can also expect to see behind the scene shots at the credit. There were a lot of parts which is funny and I can remember Noeleen laughing so loud beside me ^_^

On the other hand, Tommy as usual tries to frighten me =.= But luckily I didn't scream around the mall today ^_^ But thank goodness he doesn't know I'm afraid of the dark lately. I have to sleep with my lights on as I opened a link at night where there was this scary picture. So I'm scare of the dark recently. Hopefully I get over it soon.

Back to the movie, there are lessons shown too. The funniest is Jacky Chan who keeps mentioning about what his father told him when he was young ^_^ It actually reminds me of my dad as he does that often to me ^_^ I do not know what else to mention as it is not out and it isn't fair to reveal all out =.= But the ending, we can say sad, heroic or etc. Hehe...Hope all of you would enjoy the movie as much as I did.

Last but not least, I have to thank Nicholas for he found a song which I have been hunting for and pass the song to me. Thank you Nicholas!!!

The Box

This is a disappointment movie =.= Tommy went for the premier of New Moon with Sandy while I went to watch The Box with Eun, Jia Yi, Tony and Stephie.

It seems like a short story that is being drag long. The ending is like an infinite loop =.= You get a box, you can choose to press the button or not. If you press it, you get 1 million dollar but someone will be killed. If you do not press the button in 24 hours, you do not get the money but you spare someone's life.

How the person is killed, you have 2 choices, the person who press the button's partner is to pull the trigger on him/her or have their child suffer. But I think what the message it want to convey is not to have greed towards money for the ending is not good.

Poker King

This is a Chinese movie but it is full of laughs. It is mostly about Jack who is a poker king in the cyber world. He was called back by Uno for Jack's father has died. Jack is like a puppet where he do not need to do anything and Uno would be the one earning the money for Jack's late father.

Jack went to suggest a poker competition to meet his dream girl but was humiliated as he lost out in the first round. He then lost all him money to Uno when he decided to challenge him in a game of poker to take over his father's company. When he was on the streets, he learn a lot and also learn the real way of playing poker in real life.

In the end, he won Uno in an international competition to be the King of Poker and he too got his girl who is a girl who help him out during his hard-times.

Astro Boy

This is mainly for kids but I feel there are some hidden meaning in the movie. Tommy won 4 passes to watch Astro Boy. I went with him and his other 2 friends to 1 Utama to watch it. The animations were good.

The whole movie was like in the futuristic set-up and quite nice graphics. There is not much of a story line besides the normal cartoon where he is the hero and he save everyone ^_^ But what I like most is the part on how Astro boy was invented by the scientist to look and behave exactly like his son, Toby. Astro was created to replace Toby who died during one of his failed experiment. It is at this part where I learn that, there is no one who can replace who you are even if you can invent something that look and act exactly like you. We are all unique and no matter how much the other person can imitate us, he/she is a totally different person.

It also made me realize, we as humans, we can imitate anyone and be influence by anything. We can deceive anyone we want and only we ourselves would know about it. But there are some who are unfortunate as they have the look where anyone can used them and do not bother whether that person would end up being hurt or not. This is a fact on what is happening in today's world.

2012

This is a long overdue post =.= I went to watch it somewhere in November when it was release. It is a good movie. I was surprise that the tickets were sold out for the next 2 weeks after I went to watch. I can rate it as a very good movie. The story is about the world is about to end. It was like the government's top secret project where everyone play their role to save everyone's life on earth.

Unfortunately, like all movies, everything has been brought forward as no one can predict what our daily activities can effect the earth's magnetic core. The magnetic core began to shift before the estimated date and the world leaders are forced to announce what is about to happen. It also shows that money can buy anything where the rich and powerful people are the one who can get the pass to save their life.

Besides that, it also shows that the saying, "If there is a will, there is a way" does motivates a person to achieve things that they can never imagine. Not to forget that, when you love a person, you would do anything to ensure that they are safe. At times, for them to be safe, you are willing to sacrifice your own life for them. There is also another side of the story that greed does kill a person in a very painful manner.

Overall, the movie does shows different characters of people there are in this world where those who are good and humble are the ones minorities. But is it true that they are the losers as they are being taken advantage of their kindness and good heart? I do wonder, how the world would change after this movie. But I believe, nothing would change as we expect changes for we are waiting for the change to happen and not make the change. Some of us would expect to see results immediately but changes takes time and won't happen instantly. If it does happen instantly, it wouldn't last long as the change was made just for that short time.

Michael Jackson This Is It

I'm not a documentary movie fan actually so was not expecting much from the movie Michael Jackson This Is It. But to my surprise, it left a deep effect on me. This documentary is not about his life but on passion for his music, his passion to make the world a better place and mostly his passion for his fans.

In the movie, it did show how he wanted his final concert to be. How he plan the music, the show, the effect and others. It shows how all the cast respect and love him. I was amaze to see he is different from other artist. He would be the one who check how the sound goes, see that it is according to his records and nothing less. He wants his fans to have the best.

Even his supporting dancers. It is like how he wants them to dance. If he is not happy with something, he would say it out. He isn't scare of what people would say but he speak his mind out on how he wants his show to be.


After the movie, I started to miss him. It is so hard to believe that he isn't here anymore. A pop star who run his own show the way he wants it and not how the manager wants it. A true star who is trying to reach out to everyone to save the world. But I believe God didn't want him to suffer here as he has done his part in saving mother-nature. But I do hope, we do carry on his mission to save mother-nature so that the future generation can enjoy God's gift.

Ninja

This is unexpected movie that I went to watch. I was actually aiming at Ninja Assasin which is star by Rain. Unfortunately as usual, I got myself confuse and gave out wrong information again =.= Yes again!!!

But the movie is good. It is like a documentary on how ninja's are train and also some insight on their life. It was interesting and fun but I did learn something. No matter what, as long as when you are face upon your challenges, clear your mind and think. Do not let emotions haunt you as it can get you carried away especially anger. Anger can make you do things you might regret. By acknowledging it, you can find inner peace rather than keep the guilt for your mistake and take it out on others.

It is always the easiest way to escape by blaming others than to face your own guilt but little do people know that the guilt built inside is the one that kills a person. It can make a person to change not for the better but worst. It eats on you without you realizing it but maybe when you realize, it might be too late. But I believe that guilt will channel to the stress level we all face daily and how we see things before our eyes. We can hide it from everyone but not ourselves.

Jennifer Body Premier

This is the first time I send an SMS to Hitz.fm during their Drive Thru show and won Jennifer Body movie passes. I won 2 pairs of passes for the premier. The premier would be shown in Cathy, Cineleisure. I feel so happy as this is the first time I won movie passes ^_^

On that day, I went with Tommy, Eunice and Nicholas to watch the movie. It is a thriller but not a horror movie. Just that there are parts which are scary. In the cinema, me and Eunice was sandwich between the 2 guys. The funniest part is, I am holding my shawl as it was cold while Eunice has another T-shirt. At the scary part where Jennifer was to rip her victim, both me and Eunice were moving close to each other and where I move my shawl while Eunice her T-shirt close to our face. But there were time where Tommy scare me =.=

Overall I rate it a good movie even I hide when she was ripping the human apart =.=

The Gamer

This is a good movie. Tommy won four free tickets from Hitz.fm. I have to thank him on that. So Stephie, Edward and I went to 1 Utama to meet Tommy. After collecting the tickets, we head to Vietnamese Kitchen to have dinner. I ordered my usual and so did Tommy. Edward ordered something which was suppose to be spicy but he say it isn't. Stephie ordered a salad.

After dinner, we head off to the cinema to watch the movie. It was good. It does focus on the point where how do we draw the line between reality and virtual reality. I can say most of us are partially living in virtual reality as we chat online, do online buying and selling, online order, online banking, etc. These shows on those who are living in the real world and those who wants to live in virtual reality. In virtual reality, you are controlled by those who are using you as their character.

From what I understand from this movie, you can be anything or anyone you want to be in virtual reality. It can be complete opposite to who you truly are. But to what extend would a person be happy. It is like happiness for a short period or long term. When you are in virtual reality, it seems that all problems are hidden or can be avoided. At least I learn something from the movie. But I think I would have to write another post to explain on how this movie affect me and got me thinking.
