Movie Review - What women want

This awesome movie that happen to ponder across my, almost sleeping time. What woman want, is what all man dont really know at time. I remember a movie once say something like, 'sometime, woman dont really know what they wan themselve', ok whats that show... erm... oh ya, PS I love you. wonderful movie watch it with the one i loved few year back, oh well, it didnt turn out pretty well as i hope. Man are from mars, Woman are from venus. Alot and really i meant, book, movie are all saying that. True and not that true. Is personality. Man are more having a rush personality, perhap its because they live too near the sun and they need to like have a faster action so they wont be burn to death? I meant man usually think ahead of time and maybe that why, they seldom think. Woman on the other hand, like to ponder what happen next, possiblilty, endless worrying, with or without a child.

Back to the movie, this movie its about a guy, get a special abilities through an accident... (rather funny why people alway gain special power after been electrocuted, what that show again.... erm... i dont really remember, but a few show have that.) back to the topic, he can hear whats going on in a woman brain, what their thinking etc etc. Its like, what been mention in the show, gaining knowledge of an alien language, oh wow. You can speak with people from venus. But once may actually realise at time, sometime though we dont rather understand other language, for singapore been a multi racial country, we sometime hear stuff we dont really understand, but its just tat if you spend time, effort to listen, you will somehow start to understand. And that the show is all about, sometime paying attention to people its more magically listening to what they have in their brain. If all have this abilites, what mystery and fun is there to this world any more. Really love the leading actress, charming with her own charisma that will somehow bring audience to watch her every move. Will modify this post when i wake up next morning with all the name and detail. I just need to express what my brain is thinking or rather speaking to me now. But now it need rather a rest, take care of if there is really anyone reading my post, doubt so, but then again if do... please drop me a comment, glad to really see what the other brain is thinking too. Take care all

Movie Review - Definitely, Maybe

Definitely, Maybe - 2008

Starring -
Ryan Reynolds as William Mathew 'Will' Hayes
Isla Fisher as April Hoffman
Abigail Breslin as Maya Hayes
Elizabeth Banks as Sarah Hayes a.k.a. Emily Jones
Rachel Weisz as Natasha Rose a.k.a. Summer Hartley

Definitely, Maybe. William, father of Maya, due to curosity of Maya, William told Maya his past love story. Everyone in their own life have people entering and leaving their life. Memories was left behind, but only few accompany you through. Thats the same for William, having his life with this 3 lady, Emily, Summer and April.

Realistic touch to the movie, sometime it just take an extra step to realise who's the one you been missing. It may ended in regret or happily ever after. Coincidently people met, but is yet that moment of coincidence where people choose and things happen, love happen. Love the ending of the show, i was having a liking for April character and yep, there goes the story.

Movie Review - I Hate Valentine's Day

I Hate Valentine's Day - 2009

Starring -
Nia Vardalos as Florist Genvieve Gernier
John Corbett as Restuarant Owner Greg Gatlin

Valentine day, the one romantic event for couple or soon to be couple. Genvieve Gernier, florist whom love valentine day, believes that romance only last for five date. Not commitment, no label, no stress and its good for both party. Greg Gatlin, the type of guy whom didnt know he is handsome and give a woman his heart and get stomp on, over and over again. They both get together in the 5 date rule, and the rest its up to you to watch it.

I espically like this few sentence from Genvieve Gernier, let me share it with you.

"A new restuarant is not only about the food, its about ambience and soul. Now flower provide itself to our senses because its static beauty calm us and soothe us. Which mean customer will feel good here, they will linger, they will order more wine. Which mean they will have desert and they will leave happily and they will go home and then make love. They will wake up in a great mood and then tell everybody about the fabulous new topless restuarant they just went too."

Its may not be the exact stuff but, thats the best i can do. meaning is there. and i kinda of agree with it. Ambience the key to romance and the key to make one stay longer.

Sometime romance is not everything a guy and girl wanted. Its only the beginning of commitment and relationship that bond both together even more. Take care guys!

500 Day of Summer

500 Day of Summer - 2009

Starring -
Joseph Gordon-Levitt as Tom Hansen, a trained architect who works as a writer at a greeting card company; Tom is a romantic who believes in true love
Zooey Deschanel as Summer Finn, assistant to Tom's boss and romantic interest of Tom

This may seem like a perfect love story, sadly to say its not. Its about expectation and reality, the difference in it. This is a story, on how a guy met a girl, how they fall in love and how thing happen and change, in this 500 day.

Tom, a writer at a greeting card company, believe in love, and the destiny only one. He is the romantic type that has been out there looking for the one for him till he met summer. Summer, mysterious girl, pretty, never really want to be in a relationship, never really belive in love. In this 500 day, they fell in love with each other, break-up, life moves on and eventually figure out what love actually is.

When both people get together, the feeling is good, but people still tend to wanted . And that where label came in. You are my girlfriend and i am your boyfriend. Though when one say why bother when the feeling of 2 getting together is good. And yet, we always wanted a confirmation, a confirmation of relationship, labeling each other that you are officially mine. Some like it, some dont, and it all lead back to the word, Commitment and relationship.

Movie Review - 2012

2012 - 2009

Starring -
John Cusack as Jackson Curtis, a science fiction book writer who occasionally works as a limousine driver
Chiwetel Ejiofor as Adrian Helmsley, scientific advisor to the President
Amanda Peet as Kate Curtis, Jackson's ex-wife

Danny Glover as Thomas Wilson, the President of the United States
Thandie Newton as Laura Wilson, the First Daughter

According to the Mayan Calender, the world is coming to an end on the year of 2012. And thats what the movie 2012 is all about. With the Mayan calender theory and the polarity shift theory.

Fascinating show, kept me thinking for awhile, lets answer this few question.
1) What will you do if the world is ending?
2) Will you choose to die with the world, or find mean and way to survive

This movie actually depict, the weakness and strength of humanity. By the 2 question on top. There is only two type of answer that most will give. The selfish answer, and the sacrifical answer. But at the end of the day, there are no right and wrong in any answer, all believe and have the right to live on.

Awesome movie, the price of the movie ticket and the hour spend in the movie is worth it. Non - stop action, fascinating theory and how different people may choose.

Even the evil guy in the movie decision is not totally wrong, if u think it in another perspective, and putting yourselves into his shoe.

Take care all, i guess i wont be finishing my target. Love happen and sister keeper is no longer shown in cinema. A few webbie below, take a look if you are interested.

Movie Review - Edward Scissorhand

Edward Scicssorhand -1990

Starring - Johnny Depp as Edward
Winona Ryder as Kim

Johnny Depp, love his show, Pirate of carribean and alot more. His acting was extordinary, he can make any character into life!

Innocence is what he know, Beauty is what she see.

He, created with everything, almost perfectly, only with a incomplete hand. He depict Imperfection. She, whom saw his beauty, love him despite his imperfection. Treat him as a perfect soul. A extordinary love of imperfection.

The story of an uncommonly gentle man. Edward, a man created a inventor. Created perfecty.. almost perfectly. He with a scissorhand, live in a mansion, alone till someone brought him down. Watch the movie to see how innocence change with enviroment, and events, and how beautiful is imperfection.

Johnny Depp supporter, this is one movie you really couldnt miss. I guess you all should know this movie as well. Well known movie, but defintely worth the well known standard. 1st movie for november, chaotic month, 8 more to go. Take care all!

Movie Review - How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days

How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days - 2003

Starring - Kate Hudson as Andie Anderson
Matthew McConaughey as Benjamin Barry

How to lose a guy in 10 days, crude, real crude. Kate Hudson, seducingly attractive and madness frustration. 2 elements most man love and most man hate perfectly shown in this movie.(Reminded me of The Ugly Truth by Katherine Heigl and Gerard Butler)

Alot of interesting conversation in the movie, like the short replying when they first met. Nothing fancinating but, simplicity in it.

Benjamin : Hi
Andie : Hi
Benjamin : Hi
Andie : Andie Anderson
Benjamin : Berry Benjamin
Andie : Cute
Benjamin : Thank you
Andie : I meant your name
Benjamin : Thank you 2 time
Andie : Got attach?
Benjamin : no,currently(wasnt really sure this line)
Andie : same here(wasnt really sure this line)
Benjamin : Surpising
Andie : Psycho
Benjamin : Rarely
Benjamin : Interested
Andie : Perhap
Benjamin : Hungry
Andie : Starving
Benjamin : Leaving?
Andie : Now? Ok

Simple, catchy, that how they first met. Andie is a journalist for 'Composure' and soon finding herself writing an article on ' How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days'. Benjamin, advertising executive need to make a woman to fall in love with him in 10 days. If he succeeds, he will be in charge of a new diamond advertising project.

Some nice OST in here, Keith Urban Somebody like you. A movie you cant miss, girls and guys. Therefore here is a question for you to ponder, What is love all about? Companionship? Sex? or love is just a game played by two? Lastly, Bullshit, you will get what I meant once u watch this movie. Take care all

Movie Review - The Proposal

The Proposal - 2009

Starring - Sandra Bullock as Margaret Tate
Ryan Reynolds as Andrew Paxton

A typical romance comedy, it begins with a motive, started wif a kiss, followed by falling in love without knowing and the touching ending where they realise that love is in the air. But, despite all those, the sweetness level remains. As sweet as a pot of honey jar, perhaps winnie the pooh will like it. Sufficient to touch the heart of deeply emotion guys and girls out there.

Sandra Bullock, love her show. One of my favourite, the lake house starring Sandra bullock and Keanu Reeves.

Story started with the 'terrorist boss' Margaret Tate and the assistant Andrew Paxton. With Margaret Tate immigration application denied, not wanting to lose her job, forced Andrew her assistant to marry her in a win win situation. Andrew getting the post of the editor and Margaret can continue to stay in America.

A very wonderful movie by Sandra bullock and Ryan renolds("The In-Law" another great movie by Ryan)

Movie Review - Julie and Julia

Julie and Julia - 2009
Based on book - "Julie and Julia" by Julie Powell
and "My life in France" by Julia Child with Alex Prud'homme

Starring - Meryl Steep as Julia Child
Amy Adams as Julie Powell

Julie and Julia, the word that came into my mind when the movie ended, Inspiring..and perhaps just a little bit of butter lingering on my taste buds. "You are the butter to my bread and the breath to my life" a line in the movie. Oh, and another line that's something like, "If the food is delicious, it must be make from butter."(unsure of the actual line) Gosh, how can the world be without butterly feast?

The movie, based on two true story, showing how Julia found her way into french cooking. And how Julie, the one that adore Julia, become influence by Julia french cooking, thus finding a path out of her meaningless cubicle working life. Obsession and self-centred on what Julie is doing, losing her path, and getting back on track.

So.. Whats for dinner tonight? hopefully some great butterly feast await me ... Bon Appetit
