I managed to catch the late evening screening of The Avengers with my wife just now, and I must say, being a comic book fan boy for as long as I can remember, it was an awesome experience. I’m glad that I am part of history, that the Avengers made the leap to the silver [...]

I managed to catch Nasi Lemak 2.0 in the cinema last weekend. Word on the street was the movie is receiving rave reviews and it was difficult to get a seat. Anyways, the fiance managed to score 2 tickets and off we went to watch Namewee’s (the director/lead actor) latest movie. He shares screen time [...]

The Final Destination movies have always been formulaic. If you haven’t noticed it already, it goes like some fella gets a premonition that something bad is going to happen, and somehow barely manages to avert the tragedy, but as you “can’t cheat DEATH”, fella and his companions will one by one die horrifically. This same [...]

I’ve not done this ever, but my fiance and I watched two movies at the cinema in the course of a single week (most of the time we’re just too busy with work to do this). We caught both Captain America: The First Avenger and Rise of The Planet Of The Apes. Lets start with [...]

X-Men: First Class kick starts with a brief background on Magneto, borrowing  from Greg Park’s amazing piece of comic book work known as Magneto: Testament. I’m not sure whether First Class set off to be a character study of Erik Lehnsherr (a.k.a Magneto) in the first place, but after the movie, you would kinda feel [...]

I finally got to watch Gamer, the Gerard Butler movie that I wanted to watch earlier this year, but didn’t manage to find the time. Gamer’s premise is set in the near future, where the Internet is pretty much prevalent and gives rise to the use of real humans as controllable avatars in a Playstation [...]

The only other movie that I can compare with Obsessed is Michael Douglas’ and Demi Moore’s Disclosure. But having said that, Obsessed is a little more straightforward with a (less of a cautionary) tale of a delusional woman (Lisa – Ali Larter) going after a married man (Derek – Idris Elba), whose wife (Sharon – [...]

You know, when it comes to live-action sword-wielding vampire killers who happen to be half-breeds themselves, there’s only one who is head and shoulders above the rest, Blade. On the other hand, Saya from the recently released Blood: The Last Vampire would have been way down the pecking order if the list wasn’t limited to [...]

It was 8.00 p.m and I decided to ask the guy manning the ticket counter at the cinema on whether there were still tickets to the 8.45 p.m. Terminator Salvation screening. To our luck, there were a pair of seats (the last ones in the house) 4 rows from the back that were not claimed [...]

For as long as I can remember, I’ve always been a Star Trek fan. Starting with watching the old Trek movies on TV2 and then graduating to The Next Generation and Voyager, I’ve always loved the franchise. I was doing the “live long and prosper sign” back in primary school and still continue to do [...]
