X-Men Origins: Wolverine

Sunday, May 3rd, 2009

I was flipping through the LifeStyle section of the Newspaper today to check out one of the latest movies, X-Men Origins: Wolverine. Normally, I would prefer to watch at the Cathay cinema, because as a UOB Credit Card holder, I get to enjoy discounted movies. Whilst I see a lot ...

The Magic Hour – Hitman Actor Becomes Real

Sunday, November 16th, 2008

The Magic Hour (2008) I caught this movie on board a flight from Singapore to Manchester three weeks ago, and I found this extremely hilariously! The plot was simple, but the beginning phase was a little slow, but as the curtain (film) unveiled, it began to throw out the comedy side ...

Watching King Kong on TV

Sunday, September 7th, 2008

Peter Jackson's movie premiere, King Kong, is showing on television this evening. It has been split into 2 parts; the first to be shown at 7:30pm, the second at 9:30pm at +8hrs GMT. I recalled watching this film some time back and it was pretty incredible, knowing that Peter Jackson ...

Get Smart – Comedy Version of James Bond 007

Sunday, June 22nd, 2008

Get Smart (2007) Watching the movie, Get Smart, is almost like watching James Bond 007, albeit that it is more of a comedy form rather than full action pack with explosives and near misses. On the other hand, it's not entirely comedy, as compared to Austin Powers! Starring Steve Carell, co-hosting with ...

Cloverfield – Monster in New York

Wednesday, January 23rd, 2008

A very interesting epic of this film, unlike the usual movies. The film is played as though you are watching directly from an amateur person making his own film. The first 15 minutes of the show is kind of boring; however, as soon as the audience are beginning to wonder if ...

Fred Claus – Santa Claus’s Brother

Sunday, December 16th, 2007

Fred Claus (2007) When the story began, it claimed that the film is going to be a story unlike others and has never been heard before. True enough, the storyline is completely different from what I originally interpreted. The beginning was definitely out of the blue. It was probably one of ...

Volcano High – Violence in Korean High School

Monday, September 10th, 2007

Volcano High (2001)Over the last several months, I have not exactly a TV nor a movie addict. However, as I was flipping through the newspaper last night, a particular show caught my eyes - Volcano High. Unlike previous film reviews, e.g. Secret, Rush Hour 3 and 881, Volcano High is ...

881 – Papaya Sisters (Singapore Film)

Monday, September 3rd, 2007

881 (2007) 木瓜姐妹 881 歌台 (Mu Gua Jie Mei 881 GeTai) I was never a fan of movies produced by Singapore; but somehow every single one of these productions never fail to make me laugh. I watched 881, a Singaporean production, over the weekend, just to show my support for the country ...
