Once in a while, there are movies that are so beyond expectation that you thought: Wow, I am so glad that I’ve picked it. Maybe my week has been somewhat humdrum, maybe there are just too many sad news of old wive poisoning old husband, young teen stabbing his young girlfriend to death, or the [...]

What Do The Stick People Think Of Funny People?
October 9th, 2009 10 Comments
Of the few Judd Apatow films I have watched, I like “The 40-Year-Old Virgin” the most. Simply because I can relate to it, not! OK, there are certain aspects I can relate and that film is really funny. I have “Knocked Up” recorded and it is stuck at my to-watch queue. I think “Funny People” [...]

I Love You, Man – I Cringed As I Laughed Out Loud
July 1st, 2009 2 Comments
OK. If you do intend to watch this movie, try to stay just a little bit longer when the credits start to roll. There is a kind of funny clip that you would have missed. The thing is, I am intrigued that Singaporeans, or Asians in general, are so eager to rush out of the [...]

Tropic Thunder – An Oscar Nominated Most Expensive True Fake Movie Ever Made?
October 27th, 2008 2 Comments
For the time being, just ignore the title. It’ll make sense after you’ve watched the movie.
You know what it is like not having it for a long time – whatever it is – and all of a sudden, all the listed movies look so must-watch. Cynthia needed to do facial so I thought I could [...]

Forgetting Sarah Marshall – So Real That I Almost Cried Watching
September 22nd, 2008 4 Comments
OK. Almost. I may not able to 100% relate to “Sex and the City”, “Forgetting Sarah Marshall” is as close to big-boys-do-cry as it can get. At least in my book. I mean, there is nothing macho about getting hurt, is there? And yes, men do the stupidest things when that someone we love walked away. So [...]

If the Birthday Girl Wants Made of Honour, the Birthday Girl Gets Made of Honour
June 7th, 2008 11 Comments
Couple of weeks ago, my friendly boss dropped by my workplace – like he always does in an intraday manner to go through a checklist of 101 items with me – and he talked about “Made of Honour” instead. He even gave a two thumbs up on that movie. That was scary. Was I being Googled [...]

Juno – Comedy Drama Doesn’t Come Better Than This
February 25th, 2008 4 Comments
Drama is my favorite genre. This time, the talented young actress Ellen Page is not going to experiment with how to trap a pedophile and cut his balls like she did in “Hard Candy (2005)”. Instead, her character, a 16-year old Juno, has become pregnant and decided to find the perfect couple to adopt her [...]

27 Dresses – Girls Would Love This
January 26th, 2008 12 Comments
If you have just started dating a girl not for long, bringing her to watch “27 Dresses” would probably up your rating for a good few notches. She may even remember this chick flick as the movie for the both of you. So you better prepare to write down the date and place and what she wears for [...]

Mr. Average (Comme tout le monde) – A Light Entertainment
January 25th, 2008 3 Comments
My body was definitely suffering from movie withdrawal syndrome and the good thing about not having any for a while is that every movie advertised looks good. In the morning, I texted my Movie Review Squad with the message of “documentary, French romance comedy, Japanese anime, or horror?”. And almost simultaneously, I received two text messages pointing at [...]
