So I finally watched the movie that everyone’s been talking about (i.e. those who have watched the movie and loved/hated it, and those who haven’t watched the movie but also have opinions on it). I decided that before making any comments myself, I should watch it. In any case, I wanted to recognise the huge, …
I just watched the latest Mummy movie. Overall I’d give it 3/5 because it is entertaining. However, the plot is predictable. Inevitably, the heroes are lured back into mummy-hunting, leaving a trail of explosions behind them. Potential spoilers ahead…
Just watched [The Dark Knight](http://thedarkknight.warnerbros.com/). By now this comes as no surprise, but Heath Ledger was diabolically good as the Joker. I think had he still been alive, people would have praised his performance, though being dead somehow gives an actor cult status. (Pardon me if I sound cynical as I don’t mean to, but …
I watched 881 today. I heard it was doing much better than another local movie I watched recently, Gone Shopping. The cinema we were in, at Great World City, was about half full on a Monday night All this while, it didn’t occur to me why the movie was named that way. Even though I …
What’s it really like to be a tai-tai (rich housewife), with shop assistants at your feet, a nice house and limitless credit? What’s it like to shag a Cosplay chick who calls herself Princess Hayumi?

I’m not even a rabid Potter fan but the movie captivated me from beginning to end. Apparently the movie kept mostly to …
We interrupt this busy schedule (of mine) to announce that Steven Spielberg and Peter Jackson will collaborate to produce and direct a series of Tintin films! (alerted via Digg; go vote) Fans of the French reporter and little white dog, rejoice! Billions of blue blistering barnacles! This calls for a glass-shattering operatic song of joy. …
We just watched Paris, Je T’aime, a French movie that recently featured in the Cannes Film Festival. It was delightful, and romantic as you can expect, but there were scenes that were quite out of the ordinary. The whole movie is actually made up of ‘short stories’ from various districts, or Arrondissements, in Paris. Each …
‘Watched Pan’s Labyrinth at Vivocity today. I had been warned that it had elements of horror and fantasy, and that it was set during the Spanish Civil War. Prior to this movie, my only exposure to the Spanish Civil War was going to the Musee Nationale Picasso in Paris half a year ago and looking …
