Thanks to OMY.sg and Golden Village, I got the opportunity to catch the preview of this box office breaking movie!!
The movie is called 让子弹飞 in chinese.. is it a little more familiar now? Starring Chow Yun Fatt and Carina Lau!
To me, I thought that the movie was a little ‘chim’ and too intellectual for me, considering my chinese level. However, through out the slightly over 2 hours movie, there were a handful of jokes! And I’m glad I could catch some of them. BUT BUT, no worries, i think the problem lies in me, because the whole cinema was roaring with laughters!
Since’ I’m not cut for such movies, I didn’t totally enjoy it..
I’d give it a 3/5.
If you’re prepared to catch it when it shows, go ahead!! I’m sure it didn’t break the box office for nothing. HEHE!
Here’s the synopsis:
Set in China during the warring 1920s, the bandit Pocky Zhang (Jiang Wen) enters the remote Goose Town pretending to be their newly installed governor. Zhang is accompanied by Tang (Ge You). Zhang’s aim at this position is opposed by local mobster Huang (Chow Yun Fat) who lives in his fortified citadel overlooking the town. While Tang is aware of Huang’s previous financial arrangement with the town’s former governor, Zhang is not interested in sharing his wealth with a crook he finds to be as unworthy as himself.
Was on the way home and texting with my bestie, and decided to ask her out for dinner! YES! and so it became a movie date instead! :D
‘Coz I’d been wanting to watch it after hearing all the good reviews from my friends! :D
& I’m gonna pen down another one! :)
A sci-fi/action film! ;)
& I love the hot hot main lead. Alex Pettyfer. <3
His amazing power!
The gross ‘aliens’. Ewwwww.
I like this! :D
On the overall, I really like the show! It was one that kept me awake through out, no time to even close my eyes for an eye shut. Because I was frightened a couple of times and kinda jumped off the seat to my friend. HAHA. She claimed I’m scarier than the movie. .__.
Teehehe. But I think it was a really nice plot. I’d give it a 4/5 :D
Go catch it on the screens before its gone! Imho, worth the moolahs! ;)
I went to the Cathay cineplex in Causeway Point! Pretty disappointed with all the renovations, though it looks much better from the last time I saw. Hopefully it’ll all be revamped really soon! :D
Thanks to Omy.sg and Shaw, I got to catch a preview screening of the movie ‘Fair Game’! Its a thriller!
You probably have not heard of this movie, but its gonna be exclusively shown in Shaw theatres (i think!) from the 13th of January onwards, which is next Thursday!
& This is the synopsis!
A fascinating glimpse into the dark corridors of political power, Fair Game is a riveting drama inspired by the experiences of real-life undercover CIA officer Valerie Plame, whose career is destroyed and her marriage strained to its limits when her covert status is exposed by a White House press leak.
Valerie Plame (Watts), a covert officer in the CIA’s counter-proliferation department, discovers that Iraq has no active nuclear weapons program, contrary to the belief of many in the U.S. government. Meanwhile, Valerie’s husband Joe Wilson (Sean Penn), a former ambassador to Niger, is sent by the State Department to Africa to investigate rumors of the possible sale of enriched uranium to Iraq. After the White House ignores Joe’s findings that no such deal took place, (along with at least two other reports that also confirmed the absence of any evidence of a uranium purchase) and declares war on Iraq, Joe writes a piece in The New York Times outlining his conclusions and ignites a firestorm of controversy.
Soon after, Valerie’s covert status is leaked to high-profile Washington journalists. Is it an unfortunate coincidence or a coordinated campaign to retaliate against her husband for his very public disagreement with the government? With her cover blown and her overseas contacts now left exposed and vulnerable, Valerie is pushed to the breaking point as her career and private life begin to implode. Friends become indignant, then distant. Valerie receives anonymous death threats and Joe’s consulting business dries up as a result of the concerted smear campaign against them. After 18 years serving the government, Valerie—a mother, a wife and a field officer with an impeccable record—now struggles to save her reputation, her career and her marriage.
Crackling with sharp dialogue, intrigue and heart-pounding suspense, Fair Game is the gripping account of one woman’s struggle to overcome a staggering betrayal and reclaim her life.
Sounds interesting much, yeah?
Actually, I’m not a person who likes such a movie. & I was confused half the time during the movie! If you’re a person who likes such political stuffs, this is the movie for you!
Anyway, after I came home from the movie, I decided to read the synopsis (above!) again, and I seem to be able to understand the movie better. Abit slow.. HAHA!
Oh well, I’d give the movie a 3/5. I guess its just not my type! :P
Catch the trailer here!
If this is the kind of movie for you, remember to catch it next week onwards in any Shaw theatre!
Thanks for the movie, I finally got the chance to date this woman out!! HEHEHE! Haven’t seen her for super duper long! :D
HEHE! thanks for the company my dear friend :D
Stay tuned peeps! I really have loads to update! I NEED TIMEEE.
NARNIAAAAAA. Is one of my all time favourite ‘cartoon’ series!! Its a movie I will never miss! Caught the first two, long ago, and finally its the third one!
Well, comparing this to the previous two, I’d say this series is a tad boring at some parts! BUT, nonetheless, I still love it!! I’d give it a 3.8/5, because I compared.. Heh! Was able to stay awake through out!
If you missed the first two, you should really catch them online or watch from DVDs! They’re awesome!!
This is my favourite! Aslan, the lion! <3 Its super motherly all the time, in the show!!
Could still remember how little Lucy was in the first series.. Lion, Witch and the wardrobe.. HAHA :D
Its been awhile (okay, just a week) since I went to the theatres, and this time, I caught Rapunzel with Momsie and my aunt yesterday (Friday)!
I absolutely LOVEEEEEEEEEEE little Rapunzel!! But I couldn’t find pictures of her when she was young online. Super cute with huge watery eyes!
& Of course, how I wish I had Rapunzel’s ultra long and nice blond hair!! Keeps reminding me how chui and lousy my hair is.
I’d rate the movie 3/5, because there were some parts they just sang through the scenes. I’m not a really musical person in this sense.. But on the overall, a pleasant cartoon, I’d say! Momsie and aunt loves it though! :)))
