The truth about Vampires

Wow never knew so much about vampires, and after the movie Cirque du Freak: The Vampire's Assistant just moment ago in Cathay Cineplex, I finally realize that Vampires DON'T bite/kill for blood, they only make you faint, and take a sip of your blood, and off you go.. Then what have we been feed with since young where the demon go around blood thirst and hunting for its victim? Well those are the Vampaneze according to the movie..



Darren had a perfect life, he was popular among the college mate, get good result, have a family and the list goes on, his best friend, known as Steve, however have the exact opposite of what he have.. They were both invited to a so called once in 500 year kind of freak show where there will be showcase of freaky stunt / demon..

Things changed when Darren stole a spider named Octa from the freak show which belong to one of the vampire named Crespley..


Crespley then turn Darren into one of their kind the vampire and this trigger jealousy on Steve who was rejected when he propose himself to become one.


Darren was then brought to the freak camp where all the freaky vampire live.. There he meet with the rest of the gang and his love too as usual..


While Darren was in the wanted list for the vampaneze, Steve was used to grab Darren's attention, and probably grab his loyalty to join the vampaneze..
Magic, super power, punch, kick scene were in the movie too..

While my cousin said it was nice I think it is ok ok only so it would be 2.5/5.

This is the vampire movie where vampire is not scary and blood thirst

Outdated Movies Review

Ok, let's see what movie have I watched since my last update which is somewhere in the mid of November 2009 (not in sequence)
  1. Avatar
  2. Alvin and the chipmunks 2
  3. Bodyguard and Assassins
  4. Treasure Hunter
  5. The Storm Warriors
  6. New Moon
I think that's all. Since everyone has already blog about these movies, I'm not planning to go into the details of each of these movie, but rather what I feel about these movie, with a follow up post (on a later post entry) if there is some event / activities during the premier screening.

Avatar

This is probably one of the WOW and unexpected movie of the year, another one that I could remember is District 9. Transformer was somehow rather plain as there were many new element introduced into the movie, even the character robotic development wasn't good as audience were left with ??? on who's who..

Avatar was freaking awesome and it is VERY worth while watching it more than once and watching it in 3D.. Despite the fact that the movie lasted for 2 hour 43 minute, you wouldn't feel bored as you will be exploring a totally new world, seeing new things, sensing new danger, and look through the true face of human being on what they would do for money..

Heard that the director James Cameron (also directed Titanic, Terminator, Alien, etc..) not only spend time and money but also effort in creating a brand new world with Na'vi.. Go explore a different world where you will be amazed and impress with it. I give it 4 thumbs up (which all came from both my hands and leg) and should rate Avatar 6 out of 5 star..

Alvin and the chipmunks 2


If you are not those who get annoyed with 'children' voice, wouldn't get irritated with bunch of cute little voice, and never have the word old in your own dictionary then this movie is for you..

It is the 2nd installment, and they introduce the female chipmunks named chipette.. There were this young group of people seating not far away from me actually laugh so hard when they introduce themself as chipette.. Apparently it is pronounce as "Chee Pet" and it means something in Cantonese, something bad, something you shouldn't learn but you have just learn anyway from what I wrote :p

I don't know if I'm getting old or what but I try/tend to pick up moral value from each movie I watched.. And here it remind us that nothing come before family and love.. Fame is nothing when you lack of attention and love.. Toward the end of the movie there were this little kid probably aged 2 - 3 was dancing at the stairway with the mom busy staring at the screen =.=" and mind you the baby was crying loud before the show start..

I think it is still worth watching if you don't think that this is for kids, and it is rated 3/5 by me, da fallen angel..

Bodyguard and Assassins


The movie was rather long and laggy, the character development was good though but it dig too deep into each character which stretch to a lengthy hour.. As seen from the poster there were more than 10 hero and heroin which each of them have their own story, personal lifestyle..

All of them however have a same objective which is to buy time for Mr Sun who have a plan which can win China back from the hands of the evil empire, but this movie isn't about Dr Sun's plan instead it focus on how each and every of these person scarifies themselves for the sake of the entire country..

Actually I'm quite interested in the plan that the master mind have instead.. I think the movie is ok ok only and am rating it at 2.5/5

Treasure Hunter


I personally have a piece of advice for Jay here..
"Jay, you are better off with your singing career, way better in fact.."

This is a time wasting/dispenser movie, those who pay and watch it will vomit blood from internally.. Sorry but no offense to Jay's fans but honestly if it wasn't my gf, if it wasn't his appearance during the premier, I wouldn't even consider going.. From the trailer everything seems pretty normal and even if it is not some new twisted story, it wouldn't suck, and yes I was correct it didn't suck, it is just all f*ck up.. The plot was terrible, storyline horrible, character development was freaking normal, execution was miserable.. Nuff said!!

GF also told me that Jay didn't stop by and do promo in China thus it doesn't high amount of viewer for the movie.. Good job people from China, not an insult but imagine this, while being chased it actually have a happy and funny background music =.="
Also out of no where there is this legendary desert where traveling from city to desert is like a footstep away
o.0

Everything is just so wrong here, I don't know what happen to the director but haven't he seen any of its competing movie? His is no where near as their contestant.. Sadly but I have to give it 0/5.. Yea really 0 star out of 5, is not even worth looking at the poster too.. Heard that Jay actually watched the premier screening with member from the fans group, wonder if he fall asleep? There were this oversea couple I think from America judging from their ascent, don't know if they laugh their way back thinking that we Malaysian love watching crappy movie :(

The Storm Warriors

They said you can't fill a cup which is already full and it is true enough as I've personally experience filling up a full cup of water.. Can't imagine I actually watch this movie twice.. yea twice free of course.. As usual when there is free stuff there is a queue, and for this movie, the redemption starting at 10 but people started queuing up as early as 7.30AM, crazy, and yet many people didn't manage to secure one.. and I'm like the Santa Clause giving out early xmas present to those who doesn't get it..

On the premier day, my first impression was it was rather boring during the first hour of the show as many scene have been seen from the exclusive 15 minute preview which I attended twice back then.. The ending part of the movie was quite impressive though as these where the scene that they were working on when they were showing off the first half of the movie in the exclusive preview.. Also there were star showing during the premier day which I will break it out in separate entry..

During the second preview, everything seems to be quite boring, even the CGI didn't manage to capture my attention anymore.. Like 2012, this seems to be a disappointed movie for me.. There were plenty of slow motion punching and ass kicking scene.. The storyline was pretty old fashion, maybe it is because it was adapted from a comic which was produced some years back.. From the ending of the movie, it is pretty sure that there will be a 3rd, 4th, .... installment in coming future.. Let's wait and see..

I rate it 2.5/5 because it is able to create the same look and feel from 300..

New Moon

If I can only describe the movie with just 1 word it would be GAY! There were plenty ways to describe this movie though, like "Porn for girl" and many more.. The main female character here is Bella Swan and if you think see is hot wait till you see Alice Cullen

She is 200 times way better looking, hot, sexier than Bella.. And if I'm Edward I will go after Alice even though we are from the same family. And if I'm Bella I would rather choose Jacob instead of Edward.. I know my criticism here will trigger many angry reader but heck this is what I feel at least.. I actually went to the screening with 2 female and 2 male friend and none of us find it nice yo.. It also seems that there will be installment after this.. OMG..

I rate this 1/5 as the movie is pretty bad influence, Bella is indecisive on who she love and she seems to crave for both creature instead of human..

P/S: Don't hate me what for I think, that's just my point of view, and it doesn't represent everyone from the world, just my 2cent..

Old Dogs LMAO

Well I just came back from the premier screening of Old Dogs in Cathay e@curve

I have quite a number of extra ticket but no one want to watch with me, maybe nobody know much of the movie, or maybe I stink.. Well anyhow I somehow enjoy the movie even though I have to watch alone (not the first time though)..

The movie staring 2 friends cum business partner named Dan (staring Grammy Award winner Robin Williams) and Charlie (staring John Travolta) who have everything well manage until Dan meet back with his wife and found out that he have not 1 but 2 kids aged 7yo..


Catch the movie to see how Dan and Charlie catch up with their mega project which required alot of their effort while those effort diverted into the twin children.



See what happen when Dan choose profession over family, and how Dan twist and turn back to the way he always afraid to face but wanted to own..



It is always good not to watch too much from the trailer as nowadays MOST of these trailer contain spoiler, not just ordinary spoiler but 60-80% important element was shown over and over again where you have already get bored by the time you watch the actual show..

Quite a nice comedy movie before we say goodbye to 2009 and I think it is worth while spending your penny and time to catch this..
4/5 baby..

*I've not bee updating much lately, but will re-blog once time permit.. Keep an eye for tons of updates and prizessssssssssssssssss!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Attack of the zombie @ Cathay

Picture tells a thousand word.







Some scary some funny, but overall it was a cosplay for the premier screening of Zombieland again at Cathay e@curve

It is a horror comedy movie but I failed to LMAO, guess it is those trying-to-be-funny movie..

The horror comedy Zombieland focuses on two men who have found a way to survive a world overrun by zombies. Columbus is a big wuss -- but when you're afraid of being eaten by zombies, fear can keep you alive. Tallahassee is an AK-toting, zombie-slaying' bad ass whose single determination is to get the last Twinkie on earth. As they join forces with Wichita and Little Rock, who have also found unique ways to survive the zombie mayhem, they will have to determine which is worse: relying on each other or succumbing to the zombies.


I would easily put 5 out of 5 bullet to my head to watch this movie (negative rating).


Pssst, I will be heading to Storm Warriors 2 premier screening tonight, and will blog about it too.. Also subscribe to my RSS so that you could find out what I've won on November 2009, plenty of updates to be done.

A date with the Princess

Catch Princess and the frog at cathay e@curve on Monday

Well plenty of credit to the movie. Since it is a Disney production, you should have expected a happy ending. The movie still contain all the element that make Disney movie famous such as musical scene, love, imaginary world, and of course happy ending.

Not trying to be racist but this is Disney first black princess, which of course strike a controversy since it was officially announce during production..


The story begin with a mother telling story to her little girl named Tiana and her friend named Charlotte.. It gives the audience an idea where Tiana is poor and Charlotte is rich and that Charlotte always dream of marrying to her own prince.. Fast forward they grew up, and Tiana work hard to accomplish her dad's dream to run her own restaurant.. Of course things doesn't go smoothly, till she meet the frog who was curse by a voodoo spell by an evil guy named the shadow man.. He requested Tiana to kiss him so that he could break the spell, and so did Tiana.. Little did they know instead of breaking the spell Tiana turned into a frog too.. Now the adventure begin, the shadow man want the prince back alive but they have escaped into some jungle.. There they met with several friends who aided them throughout the journey to find another witch to turn them back into human..

Kinda typical story huh? But still highly recommended as it is worth every penny spent. Also there ain't much of such cartoon on big screen nowadays, thus make it kinda special.

Watching the movie bring me back to my childhood memory, and best of all it is nicely animated with mixture of 3D and 2D. I would easily kiss 5 out of 5 frog to find my princess.

Love Happens

Went for premier screening of Love Happens at GSC Mid Valley last night, and is up for some disappointment



Well since it was staring Jennifer Aniston, so I thought hey why not go catch it but ended up she only appear like 30% of the overall of the show.. The spotlight is more on Burke (Aaron Eckhart) who doesn't have the guts to admit his guilt and yet he is a guru who guide other people back to their own path.. Maybe I put in quite some expectation, but there was nothing much special, the romantic scene wasn't that romantic to me, the funny part still acceptable but till certain level only, the execution part was so so, and the list goes on..

Might not be a wise choice of movie to catch since there are other movies (already on screen or upcoming within days) that might jut suit you best too.. 1 out of 5 is how I think it should be rated..

Btw GSC Mid Valley is celebrating its 4th anniversary and they are having quite some contest over there, there were lucky draw and also count the gsc logo to win a car too.. Too bad these doesn't apply to me as I rarely buy ticket anymore nowadays.. :p

More photo of Jennifer Aniston
