(Review) It's Alive..It's Aliveee!!

nothing interested happened to me lately.. kinda boring.. so this morning i got up early in the morning, thought of jogging around the neighborhood before breakfast.. but.. i was too lazy, and the sun had came up.. so.. i made myself a cup of hot Milo, pour a bowl of cereal, switch on the dvd player, and watch Miss Pettigrew Lives For a Day.. and this is what i hav to say..

first of all.. what's it all about, do i hear? well, first of all, this is rather a romantic comedy type of movie.. so whoever isnt into this type of movie, i suggest u stop reading tis instant and run along now.. *tries to sound british*
well now.. *clear throat*, if everybody is ready, i would very much like to start my review now.. *ok i'll drop the fake british slang now..*

the whole movie started with a quarrel.. ok.. its more of a talk actually.. between a care taker and the employee.. the set took place in britain, in the 1930's.. so we can see the status differentious between the rich and famous, and the poor and homeless..

Miss Pettigrew, a poor homeless caretaker(and money less also) was at desperation when she was fired without getting her pay. she stole a contact card from the job agency and ended up at the front door of a young star-to-be

the star(who has a rather long name, which i did not even bother to remember) played by Amy Adams *drools* was a mess.. had relationship with 3 men, a son of a producer, a club owner and an old friend. too make things short, pettigrew helped the star to open her eyes, wake up and see her the truth.. she helped her to realize who's her real love.. umm... stuff like dat.. its like she was blinded with the rich and famous lifestyle that she had forgotten who she was and her dreams.. basically pettigrew jz get her back on the right track..

it's a really simple movie, with good props and settings, and aweseme songs.. i hav to say, i love the songs in it.. most of them are from the golden ages.. 30's-40's.. swing, jazz.. ahh.. i jz love em.. Amy Adams even sang 'If I Didn't Care'.. which was my personal all time favourite.. and it was breathtaking.. i think i like her's better than the original version by 'The Ink Spot'..

anyways.. this movie isnt just for the ladies.. there isnt much mushy stuff in it.. but there was no thrilling action part either.. i'd give it a 7/10..

(Review) Everyone, This is Dave..

last wednesday, i had the chance to catch a movie with a bunch of my friends(michael, daphne, jocelyn, yen and elvenna *hope i got the spelling right*) . the original plan was actually to attend the 2nd part of Short+Sweet Malaysia 2008 at KLPAC, but due to certain reason we decided to postponed that and go for a movie instead.. so we met up at Cineleisure Damansara.. we watched Meet Dave and here's what i got to say about it..

this is a very fun, family, relaxing, out of this world movie. i hav to admit, eddie murphie was amazing. he actually plays two roles in the movie, one as a human size robo-spaceship and the other one as the captain of the spaceship.

to make things short, a bunch of tiny humanoid alien from the planet nil, travel to earth to steal the water from the sea in order to save their own planet from destruction. travelling in 'spaceship dave', they landed at the liberty statue island and their 1st mission is to locate the sphere(a device that is sent earlier to do the 'stealing' job).

during the mission to recover the sphere, the Nilians(the aliens), discovered new things about human like feelings and emotion, which they never knew about before.. this is where the fun parts begin.

their mission to steal water became a mission to save earth when the 'evil' no.2, the 2nd in command, takes over the spaceship and throw the captain off-board. it is up to the captain and the rest of his crew to take control back of the spaceship and save earth.

overall, it really is a very enjoyable movie.. i highly recommend it to anyone who wants to laugh their socks off. i rate this movie a good 7/10.

(Review) Sarah Marshall is forgotten..

movies had always been one of my passion.. i love spending hours and hours of time sitting in front of my laptop watching movies.. anyone who've known me long enough would know that i hav a massive collection of movies from all genre.. because of that, i think to myself, why not do a review on the movies that i'd watched(ok, maybe not all, but the most recent at least..) before.. so.. here's my review on Forgetting Sarah Marshall

the whole movie is basically about a guy trying to get over his ex-girlfriend. to make things short, its a bout a guy, got dumped by his chick, life was miserable, goes to hawaii to cool off, unexpectedly met ex-gf there, guy tries to forget ex, met a girl there, sparks happens, ex got jealous, ex want guy back, guy made a wrong decision, guy turn ex down, had a fight wit girl, guy went back to the states, improve himself, finally finish his long dream work, guy invite girl to attend his show, not sure if girl will come, but girl attend, guy kisses girl, and happily ever after.. ohh and not to forget some nudity along the movie.. well.. what's new?

personally i think the whole concept is not so original. kinda saw many movies with the same storyline before.. take the heart breaker kid for instance, the part where 'guy had so much fun with girl, and fell in love, and then girl know the truth, had a fight, meet back sometime later in the movie' is kinda similar..

anyways, it still hav great casting.. kristen bells plays sarah marshall and boy, was she hot.. and not to forget mila kunis.. she had the perfect smile.. makes u kinda feel bad for hating her character in the 70's show. i would give the movie a 5/10.

Chapter 3.1 - Have I ever tell you..

hav i ever mention before that i love taking pictures.. well.. im telling it now.. i LOVE photography.. to be more precise.. i love taking pictures of nature.. i guess its all kinda start when i first laid my hands on my dad's old camera when i was still young.. he used to hav those manual focusing film camera.. but of coz, i never really had the chance to use them coz its kinda get spoiled when i grew older.. then i kinda lost interest in photography for awhile.. *oh ya.. im the type of person who most of the time only appreciate own work.. other people's snapshot doesnt really interest me.. hahha..*

anyways.. when i started secondary school.. my dad got his first digital camera(after saw the pictures from my uncle's japanese friend who visited us). back then, a 3.2MP cost over rm1k.. it was kind of like his baby.. no one touches it without his permission.. that is when it started again.. once in a while he let me play with it(with extra caution of coz).. in school also, we used to hav this digicam and a camcoder which i think was sponsored by the PIBG, but no one uses it.. im guessing no one knows how to use it..

since i've develop an interest in these things, i cant help my itchy hand to play wit it.. a teacher saw me playing wit it, and i guess she's kinda impress coz i know how to handle it.. so she assigned me as the school's photographer.. fun part is, i get to do wut i love anytime i want.. and i literally mean anytime.. there's even this one teacher who trusted me with his rm2k semi-auto focus camera.. i was in heaven.. but of coz, back then i knew shit about cameras.. so it made no different wut camera it is..

after spm, no more free access to the camcoder and camera.. until i got my k750i.. it came with a 2MP camera.. finally my very own camera.. sure its not that good, but at least it is mine and i get to snap pictures anytime.. but again it only lasted for awhile.. coz its now spoiled.. guess it flashed my phone much too often, now the camera isnt working anymore..
i.am.so.sad.

anyways.. i promise myself im gonna get myself a dslr when i get my 1st paycheck.. gonna grad soon in nov.. hopefully by january 2009, i already found myself a job.. i cant wait~!!

do check out some of my snaps at my facebook account..
