Fuck You, Prawns!

Yes, "Fuck you!" and "Fuck off!" are the most phrases spoken by the protagonist in the movie District 9. And Prawn is how the humans called the aliens. Great movie indeed. However, I am not gonna eat prawns for a short period of time after watching this movie. Coincidentally, my mom cooked prawns for dinner =_="'

Sell Out !

Today evening, I watched "Sell Out" with my friends at Kinta City. I was uncertain while my friend asked me to watch this movie because I have less confidence on made-in-Malaysia movie. But, I was wrong. This movie is awesome!



Well, I don't really understand what is the story the movie trying to tell, but whatever, I just wanna sit in the air-conditioned theater especially the weather is so hot, enjoy the movie and laugh. Yea, I laughed a lots.

What was I surprised is, Peter Davis and Jessica Lai can sing very well, especially Jessica Lai, she can sing exceptionally good. My favourite song was "You're Not My Type". They sang this song when Eric Tan(by Peter Davis) had his head hit by an auntie and was sent to a clinic.

And I aware that they shot the beginning scenes in Yut Loy Restaurant, which I introduced in my last entry. Ah, I am so proud for visiting the restaurant last Sunday. Haha...Ermm, the young director, Yeo Joon Han introduced a lots of Malaysian elements into this movie.

Some scenes for example.

When Rafflesia Pong(the female protagonist)interviewed a dying old uncle, she asked him whether he remember the Trigonometry formula and whether he apply the formula in his life. I laughed from the bottom of my heart when I see this scene. The director critized the educational system of Malaysia school, where the students have to memorize a lots of formula and not sure whether we are going to apply in the future career. Yea, we did memorize a lots of formula. Usually we will forget them after the semester ends until we open up the book, and look over it again when we need them for future exams and tests.

This movie is a musical comedy film and talking about music, one of the funny scenes is, they put up the lyrics on screen and play the melody, just like karaoke. Yea, Chinese love singing karaoke. (^<^)

Sell Out! world-premiered at the Venice Film Festival in 2008 and won the Young Cinema Award for Altre Visioni. It also won the NETPAC Award at the Taipei Golden Horse Film Festival and has been invited to 13 international film festivals so far.

"Sell Out" is a very nice movie. Watch it before too late! Even if you're late, buy a DVD and watch it at home. Don't miss it.

Last but not least, "Don't 'but' me!", my favourite quote from the movie.

Am I a Movie Freak?

海角7号

你看了台湾电影《海角7号》了吗？
如果还没看的话
就要赶快去下载来看咯！
我觉得不能说很好看
但算不错啦
我的要求高嘛
电影的前段多是搞笑具多
有一段特别好笑
一位十来岁的小女生在电梯内哼着这样的一首曲：
“喔，爱你爱到不怕死
但你若劈腿，就去死一死
喔...爱你爱到不怕死baby
爱我请你让我疯狂一次”
每当重看这片段都让我笑死了
而后段则将故事集中在男女主角的暧昧爱情上
不过有点闷
故事好拖泥带水
但幸亏电影的主题曲《国境之南》超好听的！
听的时候让我有鸡皮疙瘩的感觉
另外一首摇滚曲风的《无乐不作》也值得去听
也要称赞一下范逸臣的演技
演得不赖呢
顺便提一下
“巴冷公主”梁文音也在片尾客串演出！


　　

Wall-E is awesome!

Have you watch Wall-E?
If you don't, I suggest you to grab a ticket and watch it at theatre today because it is totally awesome! Before I went to watch it, I think the beginning 40-minutes will be boring because there are no any human characters, that means no dialouges at all except the gasps of the cutest robot on the planet--Wall-E and his beloved, Eve!

Wall-E is the production of Walt Disney and Pixar. This movie is different from any other animated cartoon, this movie is based on the themes: LOVE & ENVIRONMENT. In my opinion, Wall-E is better than Finding Nemo, Toys Story, The Incredible and even Kung Fu Panda. Can you imagine how tough to produce a movie based on robots that cannot speak? The interesting issue on the movie is Wall-E helps to promote "Apple"!!! (Why? I don't know.) Wall-E owns an iPod.(Oh my gosh, I also want it!) Wall-E absorbs solar energy to re-charge his battery and when it finished, you can hear the sounds when you turn on your Apple notebook. It's totally amazing.

The most interesting part of this movie is the golden-colored hair director, Andrew Stanton, used 2 songs from the musical drama"Hello, Dolly!". They are "It only takes a Moment" and "Put On Your Sunday Clothes". The melodies are just awesome. I have to say: "Andrew Stanton, you are brilliant!". The song "Put on your sunday clothes" is Wall-E favorite song( I guess, since he listen to this song every day) and the another song is discovered by Wall-E when he watch the TV and he immediately attracted by the song. He also mimics the gestures of the actor and actress on the TV.( How romantic he is, you will know what I mean when you watch the movie).




Last but not least, let's talk about Wall-E girlfriend, Eve. Her design is very simple. She looks like very soft but when she angry, she change to a scary robot with powerful weapons. She nearly killed Wall-E in the movie, but eventually Wall-E have her heart. Ohh, how romantic. Even Deseret News rates Wall-E as the funniest comedy in 2008. So, what are you waiting for? Grab a ticket now! >.<
