The movies I have watched so far.. that my pea brain can remember..

Aloha! I have so much work to do but as I told Jupiter, my heart lives a Monkey, my thought has a horse running around (心猿意马). I'm sick and tired of work! haha.

This year (now only March) I really watched quite a number of films. Dunno if got others which I did not input here. These are the ones I can remember (a few reminded by Jupiter).

Left 1 then I can do my Top 10 liao. haha.



This was a movie I watched during Chinese New Year season. My first time in cinema with my parents and it has been many many years (after they married they did not watch movie already) since their last movie in cinema. This movie did a 功德,cos many aunties uncles stepped into the cinema after many years to watch this. I believe this movie brought back nice memories to them.

Jupiter and Reiko told me they cried at some parts of the movie. I did not.

However, the 周初明 and wife story did touch me and I NEARLY cried.

The part where the wife said sweet stuff to him in a letter.. but their story is a tragedy as she died in the War.

There are 4 small stories. I like story of 辉哥 and his mum too. Fillial Piety.

Their interaction was funny at times also. Can't forget how he faked 合照 with the Western artiste.





Watched this movie with Jupiter. Hehe.. mainly cos of Jay.
Ok the car is cool.. he is cool as well.
But being action-packed movie, I still prefer 叶问 that type.
Seth Rogen was very humourous.
Without him, the movie would be quite dull and boring.
Jay's English was not too bad. *Phew*
Support him always!

When it comes to Dreamgirls, Burlesque type of movies,
only 1 khaki leh.. that is Jupiter (sadly to say.. oops).
He didn't know I'm interested to watch singing type of drama.
Actually I quite like.. those Broadway feel ones.
Sorry lah but Highschool Musical ok only. Over my age liao.
Not a Christina fan, but after I watched this film,
I really 对她另眼相看。
Her vocal is so powerful. Rocks man!
Cher also very good. I like the slow song sang by her.
I'm sure the Burlesque song stays in our mind.

Such 文艺片 feel movie of course 最佳人选 was Reiko!
Before that she kept telling me how I would love this movie cos it's those 纯纯的爱 that kind.
So I went to watch with her and another friend (whose name should not be named).
帅哥美女真挚的爱+ 感人的情节与台词= 动人
In the midst of watching, I heard sobs and cries.
I turned to my side, wa! Seemed like both of them cried.
It was really very touching.. Reiko's favourite part was when the gal and guy lied beside each other, and the guy said something like “如果你死了,我也死了。”(if you need more elaboration, ask her to tell you.)
The part when I nearly cried was the last part.
被病魔折磨得不成人形的他。奄奄一息时,终于见到了她。
“我不能等你一年零一个月了,我也不能等你到二十五岁了,但是我会等你一辈子。”


Watched this movie with my brother.
《新少林寺》讲述了军阀混战年代英雄救国救民的故事。
骁勇善战、欺压平民的军阀少帅侯杰(刘德华饰),被视为兄弟的副官曹蛮(谢霆锋饰)出卖,妻子颜夕(范冰冰饰)离去女儿身亡,仇恨令他痛不欲生。期间结识了久居少林厨房、却对佛学领悟甚高的煮饭僧悟道(成龙饰),并与少林寺三位少僧净能、净海、净空化敌为友。大彻大悟后出家为僧,并带领僧人,对付出卖自己的曹蛮及其手下,誓死保护战火中的灾民及少林寺。
Zen。禅。觉悟。
The character I love most was the one acted by 成龙。他真的把角色演活了。很幽默,说话有山东腔。一直认为自己的道法没有很高,谁知本领在最紧要的时候发挥了出来。把打人当作下厨,若你们上网看了,就知道我在讲什么。
刘德华丧失女儿后,大彻大悟。死了还落入佛祖掌心中,死而无憾。
眼看少林子弟一个个为了救人,救寺庙,牺牲了。
再冷血也会动容。
最讨厌谢霆锋的角色,不过还没有被我 condemn 啦。(我看戏变理性了哦!)



Love this movie. I was so late for this movie cos I was caught in a traffic jam.
Luckily didn't miss a lot.
There were parts even darker and horrifying than horror movie.
Reiko watched she sure screamed.
I covered my eyes when I saw that she was going to self-inflict pain on herself again.
Parts where she pulled out the needle, clipped her fingernails etc.. the scar on her back.
The movie is so good that you don't know when you are in her illusion or the events were actually happening.
Natalie Portman acted so well. So happy she got the Oscars.
Please watch it if you haven't.
Have you discovered the dark side of yourself?
Make sure you don't sink into it. (telling myself lah..)

Watched this movie with my JC friends.
I'm always great fan of kiddy shows.
I like this type of shows cos so cute! can relieve stress. Lovely!
Toy story 3, Shrek, Up, Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs, The Incredibles..........
Ok the graphics are very cute, songs are nice.
The frog is also very comical.
But that's all.
Not as touching as Toy Story.
Sad..
The fish is very cute also. Juliet saves it but it couldn't swim!
U can miss it if you don't have time to watch.
Because of someone's mistake (bought tickets when I have already bought)
we had to watch 2 movies in a single day.
First we watched Ghost, then Red riding hood.
When I saw Reiko I asked her "wa.. you bought popcorns? so 难得。”
“No, complimentary."
Then I realised she bought the movie tickets without seeing my sms.
No refund, only exchange for titles.
The sound effects and graphics are really superb.
For those of you who watched, I thought the werewolf was the Peter.
Cos he was wearing Black and the werewolf said it would come back for the female lead, Valerie.
For those of you who are thinking of watching, shan't spoil the fun. :)
This red ridinghood is a mature young gal, who is bold to express her love.
Unlike the red riding hood I read in book.
This movie is bit crappy. If it's not for 宋承宪 and 松岛菜菜子,应该 flop 得很惨吧。
I thought I would cry. In the end Reiko and I laughed like mad.
Some cliche parts like the guy hugged the gal then 响起 "oh my love.. my darling" that song..
then their love like so speedy.. haven't 酝酿 then married then the gal got killed.
最好笑的是灵媒。
She is really funny lah.
应该是轻松爱情喜剧片吧。
还是我已疯了。
感人的戏我能笑成那样。
P.S. My Top 3: Black Swan
Burlesque
山楂树之恋
Mango~
