    … Continued… Ratatouille When the teaser for this movie came out last year, I was excited, and I told anybody sitting next to me at that time, “this is the movie I’m going to watch”. But when I can’t even remember most of the characters’ name after exiting the cinema, I was heartbroken. How can’t…

    It’s been a while since my last movie review, so I guess, it’s time that I did some. I didn’t find anything that good except for Bourne Ultimatum. I guess this year is the time for over-hyped movies. Even long awaited ones (Transformers, Ratatouille) failed to live up to (my) expectations. The Simpsons Movie. This…

    Went to the Malaysian International Fireworks Competition yesterday at Putrajaya yesterday. It was quite a spectacle that lasted about 20 minutes, although we had to wait for almost 3 hours. And the brilliant me had to drive out to Alamanda to buy some food, resulting in me watching it from afar, rather than our reserved…

    Okay, I’ve lived with watching Transformers all my life. I’ve gotten to know their basic storyline (G1), and religiously followed their cartoons (given the time), and collected some of the figurines. I loved Transformers, because of the ingenuity of the idea, a normal machine transforming into a gigantic robot. But, when I watched Transformers last…

    On the verge of Hollywood‘s lack of new ideas, and reverting to old and foreign ideas, including those from other mediums like comics nowadays, British movies are arising fiercely. Although their international screenings are small in numbers, as compared to Hollywood‘s offering, we can see it in their quality, especially in their story writing. Brit…

    I’ve had the privilege to watch Afdlin Shauki‘s 4th film, sometime this week. Was planning on doing this review for quite some time, but to no avail, thanks to Streamyx. Funny, Streamyx belongs to TM, the owner of Celcom, whose logo, ringtone, advert, and even personnel was spread all over almost every scene. Something that…

    2nd May, 2006. I walked briskly within the heart of Berjaya Times Square. I noticed a long queue, something not quite out of the ordinary, considering it’s a public holiday, and the my destination was also the destination of hundreds more. I walked right past the long queue, looking for the word “reservations“. Ah, there…

    I know I’m late, but I only get to watch Children of Men yesterday night. I had to say, I was thankful i didn’t watch it in front of others. My jaws were hanging 3/4 of the movie. I was awed! If Nell has her 300 to drool to…I have my Children of Men. It’s…

    This latest project by Yasmin Ahmad, is something for all. Despite using kids as the main casts, adults would enjoy it because of the story, and the nostalgia it brings. Mukhsin, in a nutshell, is about a naive love between 2 matured children. Orked is a 10 year old girl who prefers to play with…
