Seefood and John Carter Movie

Manage to catch up 2 movies in a day today! Both movie that i have been anticipating since last year, Seefood and John Carter.

Come join Pup and Julius, on a fun-filled adventure to a place filled with colorful characters and unending mystery - land! When poacher steal dozens of egg sacks from Pup's reef, he make it his mission to save his brothers and sisters no matter how impossible the task may seem. His determination to make right what is wrong takes him above water, into Man's world - a landscape frought with beauty and danger - an exciting destination the young bamboo shark could never ever have imagined! Afraid for Pup's safety, Julius embarks on his own quest to bring home his best pal. In an outlandish 'fish-suit', you will believe a shark can walk on land in his thrill-a-minute action, laugh out loud comedy, great for the entire family!

What can i say. I am very proud since this is pretty much 2nd local 3D animation production after Upin and Ipin. From the trailer it already look promising (except the very obvious, screw up audio). Before watch the movie everyone already told me it sucks. My point of view? yea is sucks.

Rendering pretty screw up. All the fishes rendering look pretty plasticky, specular map too big to be technical. Animation pretty normal, decent. I mean, we been watching PIXAR and Dreamwork masterpiece every year and compare to them, this is nothing. The animation, movement, character performance pretty plain and no exaggeration like PIXAR and Dreamwork.

Bad animation, bad rendering, ok i still can accept it. The only thing no excuse for me are the storyline and sound. Seefood failed to delivered both of this. Storyline pretty plain, draggy and bored. Sound is pretty sucks, doesnt blend well and give the appropriate mood. The only thing I appreciated from this movie is the character modeling.

Perhaps kids will like it. For us who grow up watching PIXAR and Dreamwork animation hardly accept it. But nevertheless, this is huge leap for Malaysia to continue produce 3D Animation. I believe they need more man power and budget, maybe.

Next movie is John Carter!

JOHN CARTER OF MARS brings this captivating hero to the big screen in a stunning adventure epic set on the wounded planet of Mars, a world inhabited by warrior tribes and exotic desert beings. Based on the first of Edgar Rice Burroughs' "Barsoom Series," the film chronicles the journey of Civil-War veteran John Carter (TAYLOR KITSCH), who finds himself battling a new and mysterious war amidst a host of strange Martian inhabitants, including Tars Tarkas (WILLEM DAFOE) and Dejah Thoris (LYNN COLLINS).

Pretty interesting storyline and concept. Visual art, matte painting, modeling, texture all are perfect and up to disney production quality. Looking on those setting and environment remind me alot star wars and some final fantasy.

However, the movie is pretty draggy in certain part actually. Some are speed up quite fast especially towards the ending. I wish they could explain more about Tharks tribe too especially the baby born thingy. Same goes to the 9th ray which doesnt speak much of it except being a powerful ray that can destroy this and that.

Catch up John Carter at cinema if you love fantasy style movie ;)

The Fortune Buddies Movie

Went to watch this movie with my love 1 yesterday :) Another TVB movie production which remind me alot their movie during CNY.

Lam Luk (starring Wong Cho-lam), Jit Sau (starring Johnson Lee), Fook Cheung (starring Louis Yuen) are laymen who do odd jobs for living. Luk proposes to his girlfriend, who readily accepts the proposal. However, his future father-in-law wants Luk to make the down payment of a flat to show his 'sincerity' of wanting to settle down. Despite their attempts, they are nowhere near to their goal... out of desperation, the trio decides to busk at Mongkok's Sai Yeung Choi Street by performing 'the impossible' of Wrestling on Concrete!

Storyline pretty simple, easy to predict. Entertainment yes, as usual are there especially with this 3 joker, Fuk Luk Sao. However i felt there are to many disconnected shot that doesnt contribute to the story building. Most wtf scene would be the angry bird, hahaha

 

 

Nevertheless, what attracted me most are the awesome hair by Fala Chen and lovely + sweet looking Fiona Sit! ;)

 

Not one of the best entertainment show, but at least it'll still make u laugh :) and awww, sweet looking Fiona~~

Mr Popper's Penguins Movie

Went to watch movie with classmate yesterday, a day to relax after stress for few weeks ;) Mr Popper's Penguins is awesome yo!

Mr. Popper's Penguins follows the story of Mr. Popper (Jim Carrey), a high-powered New York business man who suddenly inherits six penguins and finds his life turned upside down. Taking care of the animals is no easy matter, and he quickly hits major hurtles both at home and at work. But along the way, he learns the value of family and friendship - human and otherwise.

Another awesome movie from Jim Carrey! Love most of his movie, his acting never fail to crack us up ;) This movie has a very nice plot and heart warming especially family and friendship was display. Obviously, one of the unique selling point of this movie would be those penguins! 6 of them had differences traits or personalities and of coz, name! Thumb up to the penguins CG and animation, it look awesome :)

 

 

Catch this movie in cinema now. It wun fail u i bet! :)

X-Men : First Class Movie

Finally got chance to catch up this movie with my friends ;) I am not X-Men fans to begin with but i watch it since everyone said nice and awesome.

X-MEN FIRST CLASS charts the epic beginning of the X-Men saga, and reveals a secret history of famous global events. Before mutants had revealed themselves to the world, and before Charles Xavier and Erik Lensherr took the names Professor X and Magneto, they were two young men discovering their powers for the first time. Not archenemies, they were instead at first the closest of friends, working together with other Mutants (some familiar, some new), to stop Armageddon. In the process, a grave rift between them opened, which began the eternal war between Magneto's Brotherhood and Professor X's X-Men.

As i said before, i never watch anything related with X-Men before, but i do knew who is Prof X, Magneto, Wolverine, Cyclope etc etc. So this movie, is pretty good i would said ;) but in d same time draggy as well. But well, since it was X-Men Saga, the draggy part is acceptable for me. Not much fighting scene as expected by definitely the CG was heavy. Again, i dislike how the boss (Shaw) died so easily piff.

 

 

 

Heard the X-Men Saga gonna be trilogy movie, which means gonna be 2 more movie? Hope they'll reveal more characters such as Cyclope and Gambit, my fav character from X-Men ;P

Della Ding Dang <丁噹> promote her album Soulmate <未來的情人> in Leisure Mall, Cheras

Della Ding Dang <丁噹> was in Cheras Leisure Mall to promoted her fifth latest album, Soulmate <未來的情人>. As a huge fans of her, i purposely went all d way there to meet her :D. Been loving her voice since d 1st time i heard when she duet with Ah Xin <阿信> from Mayday <五月天> on Zou Huo Ru Mo <走火入魔> song. Not to mention the first time i actually watch her live performances was during Mayday DNA Concert last year.

 

Well, gotta spam alot her photo here :P

 

 

 

As soon as her arrival on the scene, she performed Yi Ban <一半> song. Next followed by my most favourite song in this album, Hen Ai Guo <很愛過>. She also eager to dance with everyone when performing rock song, Chuai Lai Gong <踹來共>. Finally, the final song performed by her was none other than her popular song, Wo Ai Ta <我爱他>. Overall, it was great and satisfaction to be able to watch Della performed live! Her voice was as beauty as usual and marvelous! I seriously will go her concert if she gonna had one soon in Malaysia!

 

 

 

 

Not to mention, tmrw is her birthday :D organizer and fans prepared cake and present to her. Yea, a Doraemon pillow hahaha..she make a wish that hope she able to have concert in Malaysia soon. Lets hope so ;)

 

 

 

Great Day 天天好天 Movie

Just back from movie with my classmate. Another piece of film by our local production, same with last year, Tiger Woohoo movie :)..most of the main cast was DJ from MyFM.

Great Day tells the story of two Uncles who live in an old folks home. Aggravated by an argument, the two men decided to escape from the old folks home to find their children just to show off whose children is better with the help of Ah Hock and Ultraman. The fun catches in with odd circumstances, but in the end of the day it's going to be a big reunion at the old folk's home.

Is a very nice story revolving parent children relationship :)..previously i never watch the trailer before thus from the beginning of the story, the main focus was relationship between father (Jack Lim) and son.

However, i'll say nth much about them actually. Their relationship was all the way good and no conflict happen. Unlike the Uncle Lim who came all d way from perlis to kl to find his daughter and grandchildren. He face alot conflict from his family from the beginning.

However towards d end it is very warm feeling especially when his granddaughter went all d way alone from KL to perlis, the old folk home to find her grandpa because she realize she only manage to meet her grandpa 10 times more by assuming her grandpa can live until 80 years and only get to meet 1 years once.

In the same time, director tried to make the ending into simple form and harmony. I kinda like it but mayb is too simple..could b better i think :) Overall it is a good movie but i think if they could focus on the Uncle Lim more on the whole movie, the impact might b better :)



Watching this movie seriously make me cried abit in cinema. Because it is touched! it even make me reminded my grandpa who pass away 4 years back..all d memories juz pop out out of sudden T__T

Anyway, do watch this movie :) i alwiz love local production with very warm family feeling type!

Btw found the theme song of the movie and wanna share wif u guys ;) pretty good song. and some movie footage was in d MV

Phua Chu Kang The Movie Movie

watch this movie yesterday with my classmate. I am not hardcore fans of PCK and i din reli chase the series.

The plot revolves around Phua Chu Kang (Gurmit Singth) being persuaded by his mother Ah Ma (Neo Swee Lin) to bid for a contract to renovate the Heaven Can Wait old folk's home owned by the unscrupulous Lim Lau Pek (Henry Thia). Although he is not sure why Ah Ma wants so badly for him to get the job, he agrees to do it anyway when he finds out that his arch-rival Frankie Foo (Lim Kay Siu) is also bidding for the same contract.

To b honest i felt this movie not good enuf. The joke was kinda lame and it seem i am forcing myself to laugh on it LOL..but storyline wise still acceptable for me. no bloody scene or violence, so is safe to watch.

some scene are kinda bad in montage-ing and editing until v can c it was a montage. Oh well, mayb i work too much on this field and i can easily figure out. I dunno whether u could onot..heh

Well, if u r PCK hardcore fans, probably u'll find out that this movie not as good as tv series.

Legion

Went to watch this movie today at Leisure Mall with unimate after class. Gosh..it seem like once a week i watch movie with them now. But they are generous enuf to treated me this movie for today since i have no money left after some...*secret-to-be-reveal-soon*..hehe

As usual, a short summary about this movie :

In the supernatural action thriller Legion, an out-of-the-way diner becomes the unlikely battleground for the survival of the human race. When God loses faith in Mankind, he sends his legion of angels to bring on the Apocalypse. Humanity's only hope lies in a group of strangers trapped in a desert diner and the Archangel Michael (Paul Bettany). Legion also stars Dennis Quaid, Lucas Black, Tyrese Gibson, Kate Walsh, Adrianne Palicki, Charles S. Dutton and Willa Holland and is directed by Scott Stewart.

To be honest this movie abit bored for me. Not reli impressed me. Effect wasn't as cool as i though. Action wasn't as good as i though. I do believe some christian wun like this movie..LOL..anyway love Archangel Gabriel weapon! Multifunction wei! Can drill, can expand and can grow large (if i not mistaken). Same goes to his wing! Can chop ppl! like steel..LOL!! However, those angels send by God look dumb!! They look more like zombie rather than angels..and they die with gun shoot..wtf -__-...i rather watch Resident Evil than this movie..LOL!~~

* Most of the main character *

* Cool opening..however..it turn out not as cool as i expected *

* The nanny that can said FUCK YOU like nobody business. Believe me she will be ur favourite character in this movie because... *

* She can crawl on the wall like SPIDERMAN!! Opss..more like cockroach for me actually XD *

Somehow, i felt a similarity in terms of armor and wings in between Tooth Fairy and Legion angel. Except black and white...could it be they sharing the same armor? XD
