Movie reviews...

Since working in HKL , i've seldom watch movies. I used to be a movie bum, watching everything new in town and from UPTOWN.. hek..hek. I used to know and i can give you ratings for which movies to watch and which movie to get away from !! Even now , i do try to catch up - but my medical life is so occupying that i decide to rest and sleep whenever i;m not in the hospital. I bought quite a number of vcds/dvds but - somehow have not yet quite finish them till now. the thing is.. whenever i see this haram boys around , i kept buying without really knowing when i can actually watch them !!!

As i am on leave and free from hospital work for the past 3 days , been reviving my late hobby !! haks.. watched Alexander in cinema , Ocean 12 and NAtional Treasure at home. Decided to watch Alex in the cinemas because of it being an epic movie. if i am to watch it at home , chances are i will sleep thru the movie !!

ALEXANDER
Well , i;ve always adored epic movies especially those potraying history and myths. ( eg TROY early this year ) . I;ve always known that Alex is great , i mean his name is mentioned in the Quran by god. He was mentioned as a great leader and the one who jailed the gogs between 2 hills.
But this movie potrayed him as GAY !! haks.. i suppose Oliver Stone has his own ideas why he wants to potray him that way. Overall , the movie was ok - ish.. could be made better ; but i suppose even in our history books - his adventures has lots of loopholes and i suppose Mr Stone is not willing to fill in all the gaps.

OCEAN -12
Kewl movie. very hip. but dissapointing. the plot is a bit funny - dunno why the team was obliged to pay back the ones they stole in the first movie. A bit hap-hazard like KILL BILL but the impact is not as good as KILL BILL. Overall the movie was fun but a bit boring at times. One has to see the first movie to understand this sequel.

NATIONAL TREASURE
One REALLY kewl movie !!! New age indiana Jones. A MUST SEE for HISTORY BUFFS. Its kewl how they try to link american independence history with a fantast treasure trail.But be careful esp to my muslim readers , please understand what freemason stands for before watching. The adventure trails were fast and exciting ; and the way the puzzles were made and broke was really kewl. i can foresee them having nicholas cage as the new age indiana jones. :)

And btw - the STAR WARS EPISODE 3 trailer was really kewwll.. haaaakkk.. cant wait , though i was a bit dissapointed with the title.. REVENGE OF THE SITH ??? Macam B-grade porn movie punya title.. hehehehehe
