Screen | Saw 4 Only

First on my plate was LITTLE BIG SOLDIER. I wanted to see others but all movies are so packed except this one. I wondered why? It has Jackie Chan and Lee Hom. These 2 should be the pull-factor.

How did I found it? It's funny, actually. With Jackie as the Little Soldier, the coward soldier trying all ways to survive even without dignity. Lee Hom was the Big Soldier, the General, the one that 'i die for my country' type. So, serious! Even during the NGs' he didn't crack a laugh.

Next on the line was Percy Jackson & the Olympians: The Lightning Thief. That was a mouthful!


I know this is not a CNY movie. But I liked it! The story goes saying that Zeus's lightening bolt was stolen and with this he wants to start a war with the Gods. Percy, a human aka Poseidon's son. Yeap. He's half human and half God! He was framed as the thief. He needs to find the bolt and return back to Zeus to prevent the war and get back his mom from Hades. Good watch ~ good watch!

Finally got to see Donnie Yen! He's so cool in 14 Blades! Aka 'Gam Yee Wai'. It's a secret task force during the Qing Dynasty to service the Emperor and is above all laws. But Donnie (Qing Long, the best of the best) was betrayed and hunted by his own brothers. You CANNOT miss this!


Movie marathon of the day ~ True Legend. Aka 'Sou Hat Yee' If it's not for Jay Chou, I won't be seeing this. But he was just as a special appearance. If you really plan to watch this, do watch this first before watching 14 Blades. This is totally different. The fighting scenes are good but the story are a bit normal. And I didn't know that Drunken Fist was from 'Sou Hat Yee'. Hmmm... Think twice before watching this.

What to watch next? Valentine's Day, 72 Tenants of Prosperity. A maybe for All's Well End's Well Too 2010.

Screen | Shinjuku Incident


Finally got a chance to hit the cinema. I've been really busy during weekdays and weekends. Sigh... *need a vacation!* But let's not start talking about that.

Shinjuku Incident. As a Jackie Chan fan, *I believe that most Chinese is a fan* how can I miss out on this? Yeah. It's not entirely in Cantonese. It's more to Mandarin and Japanese. I've never seen Jackie acted as this character before. He's like a gangster that takes care of illegal China immigrants to Japan. And most of all, he can't really fight!

I feel that this is a sad movie. Jackie and the other immigrants are just trying to make a living at Japan. But instead he unintentionally mangled himself and his friends into triads and drugs. Don't worry! This is not another Hongkie triads movie like "Hung Hing", it's more than that.

I know it's a bit late. Most people already seen this movie. Bit for those haven't, it's not bad. It's a Jackie Chan production anyway :)
