Rapunzel: A Tangled Tale – Movie Review!

Hello people!! :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! :)))

 

Reviews for Narnia next! :DDDDD~

$7.50 for two tickets! :DDD! @ GV Vivocity!

Hello Stranger is a Thai romance-comedy!

(I seriously had no idea they conversed in Thai and we had to read the subtitles!)

BUT. No regrets!!! It was a really enjoyable movie! With the really humorous storyline injected with a tinge of romance, I’d say it was good.  IMHO, I would give it a 4/5! ;)

It was not all funny, parts of the movie were really saddening, especially the ending. F A T E. Nonetheless, it was still bitter sweet at the end. You gotta catch it to know!

Had a quick lunch before we went back to the interchange to catch 963 back to school!

Bruce Lee, my brother – Movie Review

HELLO GUYS! <3

Muahaha I’m back! Liberation never felt sweeter. I swear this is the worst exam I ever had. Hope it gets better ;)

Anyway! Headed to town(!!!!) with my girls after our paper & we caught a movie together! :D

Yes, its non-other than the movie, Bruce Lee, my brother!

Bruce Lee My Brother Poster

It was basically a biopic of Bruce Lee’s life before he became a legend, based on the memoir written by his younger brother.

Honestly, I kind of like the movie!! (On the contrary, one of my girls said it was a lil draggy) It was a pretty long one though, 2h 9mins. I guess he’s one interesting person we would love to find out about. Since the story is based on the memoir, I have no idea how to describe the movie!! So if y’all love Bruce Lee’s movies, its another you shouldn’t miss! ;) It kinds of gives us a whole big picture of this man’s life. From his birth till the time he turned really famous. Shall not be a spoiler. Catch it okay!

I’d rate the movie a 4/5! Cos I really like it!!

& I didn’t fall asleep at all! :)))

I really like the main lead who portrayed as Bruce Lee. HE VERY HANDSUMMM LEY. (Then again, probably only to me. My girls don’t agree.)

Legend of the Fist: Return of Chen Zhen Movie Review!!!

Hello everybody! :]

I know I haven’t been updating this space for a bit. But school work’s been keeping me way too occupied. Much more than I’d like to be. Grrr~

Anyway, Thanks to Omy.sg and Shaw Organisations, I got the privilege of catching the Gala Premiere of Legend of the Fist: Return of Chen Zhen! :)))

& I brought RuoYan along!

We met up a little while before the movie time to have dinner!

We decided on going to Wheelock because it was just opposite The Shaw House. Easy to get over there! Walked around and finally decided to have our early dinner @ The Pasta Shop by Sakae! There wasn’t a single soul inside when we decided to step in. Lol!

This was what I ordered:

Spicy Soft Shell Crab Pasta! It was a little spicy for me. :/ I’ really can’t take spicy food!

IMG_2060

& darling ordered Carbonara with Bacon and egg! She said its not bad!

 

IMG_2061

Hehehehe. Those were our starters! Edamame and Potato Salad (half seen)! The potato salad was not bad too!

 

As I was itching for some sweet treats and Big O cafe (?) happened to have some afternoon tea promo until 6pm, we had a little rest at the pasta shop before hopping over to Big O for a piece of cake! :D

 IMG_2065

We shared this cute little heart shape cake! Mousse based with a little sponge in between! :)

While waiting for the movie… YES, sad uni life!!! We had to make use of the time to MUG!!! D:

 

& Finally, it was near the time for the movie and we walked over to Lido!

Excited I was as I waited for the start of the movie. DONNIE YEN!  ♥

 

IMG_2068

Thank you Omy & Shaw! It was my first time catching a movie at Lido too! LOL!

IMG_2071

Before the movie started! Me & RY!

The theatre was humongous!!!! Serious!

Anyway. If you followed me on Twitter, you’d have known I absolutely enjoyed this movie!! Donnie Yen never failed to amaze me! ♥♥♥

The story was based on the China war times in the olden days.. & when the Japanese took over China. It was quite touching, in some of the parts! I shan’t disclose too much about the movie because YOU GUYS REALLY SHOULD CATCH IT! :D Its gonna be shown in the theatres TOMORROW ONWARDS!!!

&.&.&. Donnie Yen has an ULTRA GOOD BOD!!!♥ I swear. You gotta catch it yourself, seriously! ;) *Drools*

Haha. The only pity was I had the Ip Man feeling in Chen Zhen. It felt like I was watching another Ip Man sequel, but of course, NAHHH. They are all based on different stories. Its just that the fighting scenes brings me back to think of Ip Man! Teeheee.

Okay, enough said. I hope you enjoy the movie as much as I did! :D

(Opps, and I think there’s going to be a sequel for this movie too!)

*editted*

Just casually recalled something I heard over the TV about Donnie Yen when they were interviewing him and the team about the new show.

Shu Qi who was starring in the movie together with him said he’s a perfect man. In the sense that, he has very good control over what he eats (as an actor this is very important, I’m sure you agree), then every morning he’d wake up very early (5am or something?) to train his martial art skills, etc, AND he’s a very sweet husband to his wife.

So he actually inspired Shu Qi a fair bit especially on the control diet part.

WAHHHH. WHERE TO FIND?

Legend of the Fist!

I just found out a couple of days ago, that Donnie Yen♥ is starring in another new movie, that is going to debut on the 23rd of September!!! (Omg just realised its ONE day before my Birthday! :P) HEHE. Its non other than Legend of the Fist: The Return of Chen Zhen,
精武風雲-陳真!

It was only in year 2009, when I caught the movie ‘Bodyguards and Assassins’ that I got to know of his (Donnie Yen) existence! (I still remember I blogged about this movie last year!, about how good it was!) I know I know, pathetic I know. It was because I didn’t catch the awesome movie ‘Ip Man’ in 2008! :( I’m a tad slow. I think its alright, because I started appreciating his movies since then! :)) He’s totally admirable!

& then in 2010, it was Ip Man 2! Another biggest box office hit! HEHE. Can’t stop raving how awesome he is!! & I really really love the movie!! I love Donnie Yen!! After catching this movie, I’ll never want to miss any movies starring Donnie Yen! Heeee. =))

I’m sure many of you are probably like me, but I think its never too late to start liking him! I think he’s really good as an actor and he fights really well!! :D

I’m a lazy bum who never bothers doing research on movies; but knowing that he has this upcoming movie, I went to wikipedia a little, and found the whole list of movies he starred in. Amazed, I am, it all started since 1983, and he’s only 47 currently. *WOAHHH* & wiki is so updated that even movies starring Donnie Yen that are showing only in 2011/2012 are already out on the list!

Enough said. Conclusion: I can’t wait for Legend of the Fist! :) I wanna see Donnie Yen! I wanna see him fight!!

Anyway, here’s the synopsis. Its an Andrew Lau film..hoho!

While China is traumatized by military cliques during the World War era in
the 1020s, Shanghai is the cynosure of all eyes. People see it as both Hell’s
Kitchen and Heaven’s Gate/ One of the city’s most memorable heroes has to be
Chen Zhen, who single-handedly avenges his mentor’s death by killing all the
Japanese at a dojo in Hongkou, only to be showered with bullets while making
his legendary flying kick. Vanished from the public eye ever since, he has been
taken dead though his body is never found.

Seven years later, a wealthy entrepreneur called Koo returns from abroad
and makes a grand entrance on the Shanghai social scene by befriending the
notorious mafia boss of the city. This mysterious man is none other than Chen
Zhen in disguise who dwells in a world of nefarious means in order to infiltrate
the criminal empire. He soon discovers a clandestine collusion between the
mafia and the Japanese.

Disguised as a caped crusader at night, Chen sets out to dismantle with his
martial arts skill the evil collusion that plaques the country. One of his foremost
missions is to ferret out the assassination list prepared by the Japanese…
