Avatar, review
First of all, I'm please to announce that the three hour long film is no dissapointmeny to me. or probably I never had any expectation to begin with, but it turned out to be exceptionally breath taking. Imagine, I was eating my favourite Cineleisure wedges with ketchup and many times throughout the movie I was basically staring into the screen with one hand holding a half eaten wedges while the other hanging in the air with the packet of opened ketchup. and my mouth was open. Yes, the movie is good enough that it made me stop eating, and no kidding, I AM greedy ok.
Well, it's good in the sense like omigodwadsnext sort of thing. and did I mention the graphic was amazingly detailed that you forgot that you're watching a movie that the whole world is made out of some briliant person's imagination.
As usual, I like to talk about angles and stuff. I think the director really likes close-up shots. I mean, who doesn't? I admire the ability of the director to make close-up shots works and bring out that emotion of the cast, plus, the shots was nicely done, in the sense that it doesn't make you feel suffocated. Not many know how to use close-up shots so frequent in a movie and still make it look good.
I wouldn't want to spoil the story for some of you out there, so I won't be telling much of the story. I can only say that the entire story was nicely done, the flow of the story was smooth, with some narration that makes the story makes better sense. However, like every other movie, this one too has some loop holes here and there regarding the Na'vi world and stuff, it sort of make you ask more question about this other world. Not much of how the world works, but the graphic sort of makes you go "WOAH" with your mouth wide open. All those pretty glow in the dark flowers and those pretty bugs that flies funnily, so you'll sort of get distracted from those scientific mattes of how come its glowing, how come it glows when you step on it, how come this how come that.. .
Honestly, I was too busy staring at those pretty things I forgot to ask those questions. haha. Well, fair enough, when they cannot give you something, they compensate with something else. Basic law of almost everything. If you have fat legs you show off your boobs so people won't realise you have fat legs, they get distracted, you see?
Ah well, it's not the best metaphor but it make sense, so it's alright. :)
Parts of the movie are pretty dry and predictable, but it's a three hour long movie so you sort of see it coming when you bought the ticket so there's nothing much to complain. This movie gave me the same feeling when I watch Transformers 1. I'd like to watch the 3D version and see how good it is. Hey, if I would spend another 17 bucks on a movie that I've watch and it's not a kid's cartoon, you can bet its good. :p
BTW, will be heading to One Utama TGV tomorrow to watch Sherlock Holmes screening, compliments of Nuffnang. :)
Will be coming up with a review I guess, since I'm sort of into writing reviews lately, plus I've been looking forward to this movie since I watch the trailer, so if everything goes well, do expect a review from me, soon.
Till then.

Helpless.
It's not easy to say this but I'm feeling so helpless at this moment, this point of my life. It's like everything is so messed up and there's so many things I'd like to do but from what it seems things are not leading me there or following my plans.
So many of them tells me to relax, to "take a chill pill" and let things go with the flow, and life will plan itself out. Oh I wish I could think like that. Really, I do. Sometimes things seems so bright and positive but this is not the time. This is the time when everything looks like a piece of crap and you have no idea where the heck you belong. This is how I feel.
There's so many things I'd like to do, I want to, need to achieve. But everything is changing, like how I planned to go to the UK and further my studies, and work there and come back to Msia as a lecturer or something, so I worked hard, I worked with this little dream in my heart leading and guiding me through my student life, now working life. Now that I heard UK does not give out Visa that easily and students aren't allowed to work there, it seems that my last hope, last resource to go there is dead. I feel like I'm here in this big empty room with no light and the only candle I have is blown off and I've dropped my last piece of match. Helpless, it is called.
Am I doing what I want? If I work hard enough, can I still reach my ultimate dream without having a proper degree and be happy of what I do? I have no idea, and fuck I hate not having a clue of what's happening. I like to be in control of things, especially my own life. But now things are exactly the opposite of what I want. I feel so terrible at times I feel like breaking down, cry and die.
This is bothering me, the path to my future seems to fade away and I now have lesser motivation to work or do anything else. I wish I can just have fun all the time and forget all this stupid things. I mean, what's the point to work so hard and save so hard when the only thing you wished for seems impossible? It's like what's the point of even walking, if you have no direction to where you want to go, or the place that you want to go is already gone?
Some people thinks that I'm still a kid, well, honestly, I act like one because I want to be one. It's easier to act stupid than trying your best to explain what you foresee and what you plan to happened, because they will still think that you're stupid and try to put you down by telling you their life experience. Not that I don't appreciate them trying to save me from this so called unreachable dream, or what ever it is called, but I'd like to think everyone have a different life. God might be nice to you so you have kids and family or lotsa money in your current account so you have no need to worry. But living with a mum that hates your guts and a dad that is almost constantly broke, you tend to see things differently but other people wouldn't understand anyway. So why waste the time to explain?
I'm rambling and complaining, but I guess this is sort of the only place I can say things as I like and have no one trying to interrupt or ask you to shut up or tell you what should you say and what should you not say. I hate being asked to shut up. It's a fucking insult.
Helpless is my enemy, it makes me weak, and when I'm feel weak I curse and curse to make it seems like I'm stronger, but it doesn't work that way. It's a lie.
Sigh.
I don't know how to do this anymore.

十月围墙电影讲评
刚看完了这部陈可辛的电影， 总觉得自己一定要写些什么的，而且还一定得用华文。。。 也许这种感觉种感觉是洋人语言表达不出来的吧！哈哈。
电影刚出炉的时候就很想去看了，却不是因为什么，而是因为谢霆锋有参演，所以总告诉自己一定要看，因为总觉得电影海报真的很奇怪，怎么看都觉得他们是想把全部人塞进去酱。哈哈。结果到了电影院才发现是陈可辛的作品，实在不错。
嗯，太久没用华文了， 所以感觉真的很奇怪。哈哈。请容忍我这超烂的文章。
好。 就从电影的开始讲好了， 一开始就有人流血了，会让人很想看些去酱， 不错， 因为很少电影一开始就会让你有种很好奇，很想知道到底是什么事的感觉，尤其是中文作品， 不好意思我看了太多电影了，难免会比较比较。不过十月围墙就真的很让我耳目一新。
不说别的，就来评评演技好了。 甄子丹的演技就让我觉得他很棒，以向来都演好好先生的他在这电影里演为了钱什么都肯做的懒赌鬼。 虽然后来很自然的改邪归正，可是我倒觉得他这回的神情，感觉和叶文里的他实在不一样。完全能感觉到他那种心里的懊悔和他那种“哎算了吧” 得过且过的感觉。 化妆师也下了不少功夫，他被打后的样子很真，很令人心痛，就真的像他被打的要死了那样，眼睛肿肿的，很厉害。
反而霆锋的演技就没什么大不了的， 不是不好，而是和平常一样好，却没什么突出的感觉。Hmmm... 也许是他以向来演技都不错吧， 所以对他的期待高了好多，加上这部电影这么多大明星，难免会有很高的期待。
让我很惊奇的是黎明竟是其中一演， 真可笑，刚开始还不知道是他的时后还觉得为什么电影会用酱新的人，演技差死了。 结果发现是黎明时还真的偷笑了， 也许是配音问题吧，不然就是黎明不适合这长发飘飘的角色吧！这我也不知道耶。
天啊， 久没用华文就是酱， 全都还给老师了，以前还觉得自己作文很厉害，现在像大便了啦。 糟糕，真糟糕。
总之，从电影的角度去看，这部电影真的很值得去看。 历史方面正不正确我可不知道了，可是身为爱电影，拍电影的人，我觉得这部戏很不错，不单演员们的演技一流，就连导演的镜头，音乐搭配，化妆效果都很棒。如果真的要说不好的，我觉得配音素质差了些，范冰冰的声音完全搭配不了她的角色，黎明的是不是配音我不大清楚，可是我总觉得他唯一有说话的部分真的很奇怪，我还以为是哪位烂演员呢！哈哈。
好了， 就酱吧。 也许我要重新用英文在写一篇了。嗯。再看吧。
