X-files 2 is coming

10th July

I want to believe!!!

Yes, X-Files 2 is coming to theater 2 weeks from now. It has been X years since the last X-Files. Haha, I forgot how many years, so to me, it was X years ago!

I cannot remember when I started to like X-Files. I was not able to follow all the series when it was showed in the TV. I miss most of them. Now, I have Season 1 and Season 2 DVD. Maybe I will try to grab the rest of the season if possible….

X-Files: I Want to Believe is a cannot miss movie to all the X-Files fans!

Best Male Singer - Gary Cao Ge

8th July

Gary Cao Ge got the Best Male Singer from the Taiwan Music Awards on Saturday! Congratulation to him.

Gary has his first concert in Malaysia on June 28. I missed it. If I’m not on my vacation, I think I will go and watch it.

For Best Female Singer, Tanya Cai from Singapore got the awards. Congrats to her as well.

Wanted

1st July

If you don’t know this movie is actually based on a comic, you will think that this movie was a little bit too much. There are many scenes that are impossible to happen in real life: the bullet that can go curve, the car can turn 360 degree on the air and the driver can still manage to kill people during the turning, the bullet can kill the target although it was many buildings away (I think more than 10 buildings), and etc.

Overall, Wanted is just a normal action movie with many unbelievable special effects. You can check out this movie if you want to see Angelina Jolie. She is cool!!

Synopsis:
Wesley Gibson (James McAvoy) finds out that his long lost father is an assassin. When his father is murdered, Wesley is recruited into his father’s organisation and trained by a man named Sloan (Morgan Freeman) to follow in his dad’s footsteps.

Kung Fu Panda

21st June

After one week of showing in the cinema, finally I have the chance to watch Kung Fu Panda during my off day. Before I watched, I already heard many people said that Kung Fu Panda is very funny and nice. They are true.

Po, the Panda in the animation was so cute! I like it so much. He is fat and cute. He likes to eat a lot. That is the motivation for him to learn kung fu in the end.

For those who not yet watch this movie, try to take some time to go to the cinema and watch it. You will not regret!

Oh, this animation comes with English and Cantonese version. The one I watched is English version. I would like to watch the Cantonese version since it has my idol, Eason Chan’s voice! Hehe. Cantonese version only show in some of the cinema. In Penang, it’s showed in Gurney Plaza.

Synopsis:
The lazy and irreverent panda, Po (voiced by Jack Black), must somehow become a kungfu master in order to save the Valley of Peace from a villainous snow leopard, Tai Lung. Set in the legendary world of ancient China, this is the story of Po, our unlikely hero, who enters the rigid world of kungfu and turns it upside down. Po ultimately becomes a hero by learning that if he believes in himself, he can do anything.

The Happening

15th June

If you have watched The Sixth Sense, The Sign and Lady In The Water, I’m sure you will be like me, waiting for the latest movie The Happening, directed by M. Night Shyamalan.

The Happening has a very strong message to all the viewers. We need to take good care of our environment and the most important, our mother Earth. We have polluted our environment so badly and caused so many issues, such as global warming. If we keep on doing the bad things to the mother Earth, IT will revenge to the mankind one day.

I like the movie though. :)

Synopsis:
“The Happening” is a paranoid thriller about a teacher, Elliott Moore (Mark Wahlberg), who takes his family on the run, in an attempt to survive a natural global environmental crisis that presents a large-scale threat to humanity. This film portrays the earth as being a victim of mankind’s doings, which causes a global backlash. An invisible neurotoxin is admitted into the air that causes people to become suicidal.

Indiana Jones And The Kingdom Of The Crystal Skull

24th May

Indiana Jones And The Kingdom Of The Crystal Skull is the long awaited movie for this summer! I went to the cinema to watch this movie 2 days after it released.

I like this movie more than Chronicles Of Narnia: The Prince Caspian which is released one week before Indiana Jones. It was funny, adventurous, exciting and the most important ALIEN! Yes, the crystal skull is the Alien’s skull actually.

If you like Indiana Jones, this latest sequel is the one you cannot miss.

Synopsis:
Indiana Jones is enjoying a quiet life teaching before being thrust back into his old adventuring. He races against agents of the Soviet Union for the crystal skull. His journey will take him across New Mexico, Connecticut, Mexico City and the jungles of Peru, as well as the warehouse from the end of “Raiders of the Lost Ark”, where numerous treasures including the Ark of the Covenant are kept safe by the US government.

Kung Fu Dunk

15th April

I want to watch this movie in the cinema, but in the end, I didn’t make it. I bought the dvd recently and watched it few days back.

Kung Fu Dunk is full of special effect, just like Shaolin Soccer, but it’s basketball related. Jay Chou is the student from the Kung Fu School. He got kicked out from the school and met Eric Tsang accidentally. Eric Tsang became his manager and made him to be a basketball player. He became famous since he used his Kung Fu during the basketball match. However, He only has the action and no tactic. He started to get trained and has improved himself. Want to know what is happening next, then you must watch this movie.

For those who missed the movie in cinema like me, go get the dvd and watch it. It’s entertaining and touching on some of the part. Nice movie and it’s recommended!

30 Days of Nights

11th April

Another disappointed movie. I thought it will be a nice one but turn out it’s not what I was expected.

In Alaska, there will be one month with no sun, means 30 days of nights. On the last day, many who cannot live without the sun move to another state. Weird thing starts to happen. The dog get killed at first, followed by the people in the town. The killer is like a vampire to me, they suck blood as well. They can run very fast and keep on killing the people in the town. In the end, the main actor inject the blood of the so call “vampire” (I don’t know how to call them), and become one of them. He manage to kill the leader of the “vampire” and sacrifice his life.

To me, I think Wrong Turn, 28 Weeks Later or even Jeepers Creepers are much more better than this movie. Luckily, I didn’t go to the cinema to watch it. It will be a waste of money.

Jumper

8th April

I watched Jumper on DVD. Previously, I planned to watch this movie in the cinema since the trailer seems very exciting and interesting. However, I was disappointed.

The storyline was not that good. The movie begins with a young boy found out that he can teleport from one place to another place. When he grows older, he starts to teleport to bank, get the money for his own use and he lives in a luxury apartment. There is one day, he found out this special power is not only owned by him. There are others who have the same power as well. At the same time, there is a group of people called paladin. They are the one who wants to kill all the jumpers. They think that all the jumpers are the bad guy and need to be killed.

Basically, the whole movie is interesting because of the special effect. but it’s too simple and the storyline is weak. If you have the time, you can watch it. If not, you can just skip this movie and go for a better one.
