It's definitely not intentional. Speed Racer is, but G.I Joe isn't. You could see that they wanted to make it good but failed. And even if they "intentional" made it look cheesy, it turned out to be lame.

Superman Returns is a great movie, I totally agree.

I thought 30 days was a very weak movie. Some of the scenes were good but there were lots of plotholes (i can't remember them now though )

The ending was alright i thought. Cliched though. A unique vampire story will be like the swedish movie Let The Right One In, you should watch that.

I would love to have more Hitchcock conversations here, any time.

I actually didn't really like Rebecca. Sorry, old man.

Surrogates - One of the most cliched movies ever, not a great movie but it does has its own entertainment values. 3/5.

kobe8 is now kobe24?

Event Horizon was quite an awesome movie as far as I can remember. I shall watch it again some time soon.

I just watched Moon, and my, what a movie.

I'm just overwhelmed right now as I'm typing this. A mixed feeling that I've not experienced for awhile now. Best movie of the year? Personally, yes. How can I actually put my feelings into words? For one, it is heavily influenced by 2001. The spaceship interior, the pace, the intelligent robot (just that this is not evil). Add some 21st century touch into it and you get Moon. Outstanding display by Sam Rockwell, and to Spacey as well even though he's just a voice. Well, we can't expect him to stay monotonous all the way.

Visually-wise, it is very pleasing. The texture was very well balanced and damn it should look really awesome on the big screen. It was shot with a 70mm IINM. The bluray release should be out end of the year and I'll be watching it again then. But what takes the cake is the storyline. Come to think about it, it isn't really groundbreaking or anywhere near original but it's just the way it was executed. The suspense and the mystery works so well it makes it a thriller of its own. The way I see it, this movie has different layers which slowly unfolds itself, naturally, without feeling out of place. It makes you think back and forth until the truth is revealed and it was a real treat to my brains too. Soundtrack worked perfectly with some scenes, adding to the already depressing, tragic story.

Just awesome, 4.5/5.

Interesting fact: Duncan Jones, the director is the son of David Bowie. Hah.

you watched it in the cinema right? how was it?

I agree with you. I was pretty pissed that it was even compared to Hitchcock's movies.

I've recommended (500) to my other friends who are suffering the same fate as Tom and they love it. We do random talk about the movie sometimes, that proves how much it relates to us as guys. In some ways, it is a romance movie for the guys.

Ah that explains it My girlfriend hates Tom because she thinks he's useless. Girls, what do they know about boys like Tom?

Well, from a girl's point of view, acting childishly when you can't get over a girl is considered weak.

I won't place NCFOM in my top movies list of the decade though, at least not in the top 10. Great movie, I love it but the ending is still so vague, I still don't get it, or maybe it's best not to know it? I don't know.

Last movie: Brothers.

Stellar cast, great performance but mediocre movie. I've read comments about it being a complete rip-off of the original Danish movie. Since I haven't watched the Danish one, the American one was good at best. Tobey Maguire finally pulled off a serious role and aces it. Natalie showed some maturity with her acting and I'll always love her. A little bored with Jake's role though, it seemed like I'm watching a repeat of his performance in Zodiac, nonetheless a good one although I can think of a dozen of actors that is capable of playing his role. 3.5/5.

Precious - 4/5. Very inspiring and uplifting movie. Great movie if you want a tearjerker.

Up In The Air - 4/5. What I don't get is the hype it's been getting. Yes it's good, well acted. Very well acted indeed. But George Clooney didn't really brought the best out of his character the way Vera and Anna did. And that for me didn't quite sell it. I wished Reitman would have gotten someone else like Aaron Eckhart. He was amazing in TYFS, the best Reitman movie for me still.

Yea, that's what I thought too, 1 take but look closer there's one scene where there's blood stain on the camera and it disappeared next. So it wasn't really one take.

Moon is the best movie of 2009/.

Will do. What happen to your blog lah?

I honestly don't get what's the big deal with Up In The Air. Will watch it again soon though. And I rather it to win BP rather than the over-rated The Hurt Locker.

So italic works huh?
