Life of Pi

Life of Pi

We watched the latest movie by Ang Lee yesterday: The Life of Pi.

How do I feel about the movie? This was what I posted on my Facebook this morning:

The thing I like about The Life of Pi is because it’s a story – we get absorbed into the story and don’t notice the passage of time (the movie is 2 hours long!). It’s like listening to a master story-teller weaving a tapestry of beauty. I may not agree with everything in the story but it didn’t prevent me from enjoying the story simply because it is a good story. Only 2 very annoying cinema-goers felt the need to check their FB repeatedly during the movie (usually it’s 5 times as many) – I already cursed these 2 with chronic dysmenorrhea.

I think it’s refreshing to watch an engaging movie which does not have sex, blood gore, machine guns, fast cars, sexy women wearing very little (although Tabu was really stunning!), emaciated effeminate vampires that glitter in the sun, and cheesy lines and music.

Go watch it and see if you agree with me.

 

The Dark Knight’s RISES!

 

Geddit?!

Mammary Fury

Every once in a while, in my pseudo-ultra-conservative-everything-is-taboo country, some one makes a mistake and the result could be rather hilarious. Like this advertisement I saw at the local theatre this morning when I went to get tickets for the movie, Battleship.

I can’t wait for the sequel: Wrath of the Other Tit.

LOL!

Made my day.

John Carter

We went to watch John Carter at the theatre the other day. The film is Disney’s latest summer release and carried a PG12 rating (children below 12 had to be accompanied by a parent).

I’m not going to spoil it for you by revealing the plot, although you can read it here. Suffice to say that, while my 9-year-old son thoroughly enjoyed the movie (he laughed so loud, we were almost embarrassed), the rest of us thought the movie was only “so-so”. Sitting through 120 minutes of the movie was quite a torture and truth be told, I was almost overjoyed when it finally ended. Thankfully I did not develop pressure sores.

Not that the movie was bad in any particular way. It just lacks the ‘WOW!!’ factor. You know, the feeling one gets when one sees a scene like perhaps the light-saber duel in Star Wars or the first glimpse of Pandora in Avatar.

I think I would have enjoyed the movie more if:

1. Dejah Thoris, the warrior princess of Helium (her city on Mars) did not look like a man in wigs on anabolic steroids. (If I were John Carter, I’d rather not go back to Mars).

2. Helium wasn’t called ‘Helium’. I’ve always equated ‘helium’ with funny voices after inhalation of the gas.

3. John Carter had more testosterone than Dejah Thoris, or perhaps less estrogen.

4. The space crafts did not look like they were stolen from the set of Avatar and fitted with cropped grasshopper wings.

5. Tars Tarkas, the leader of the Tharks, did not look like an ectopic character who wandered off the set of Star Wars.

6. Those cute little green creatures which hatched on Mars did not look like they were offsprings of Shrek.

7. The hyperactive-super fast Mar’s version of a dog that became John Carter’s pet did not look like a juvenile version of Jabba-the-Hutt in Return of the Jedi.

8. The music score wasn’t so uninspiring or cheesy.

9. Shang, the busy-body celestial-but-mortal Thern, did not looked like he overdosed on SKII and Fair & Lovely facial cream.

10. The plot in parts, did not make me feel like I was watching Cowboys vs Aliens.

11. The people in the cinema did not include infants who whined and yelled intermittently throughout the film, idiots who did not know how to mute their blardy hand phones, imbeciles who had the need to check their FB updates every 3.5 seconds or the lovey-dovey couple behind me who giggled incessantly while whispering sweet nothings in Chinese loud enough to be heard in the next cinema hall. I almost wished I had a real light saber.

It was very annoying to watch John Cater romancing his testosterone-laden love interest accompanied by the unappreciated background noise of mobile phones, whiny babies and loud oriental foreplay.

I read it’s going to be a trilogy. Frankly I’m not holding my breath in anticipation.

How to spot a pirated DVD in Malaysia

Here’s how you spot a pirated DVD. Below is the front cover of the latest installation of the ‘Final Destination‘ movies:

Now look at the back cover and focus on the right upper corner.

I don’t think anyone who has seen any Final Destination movies would actually think they are ‘A Hilarious Must-See!’. LOL! (Unless they are really sick in their minds).

DVD pirates these days don’t even bother to print correct captions or plot summaries on their products anymore! I have seen horror movies described as ‘hilarious must-sees’!

*eyes-roll & face-palm*

X-men First Class

I watched X-men First Class in the Xtreme Theater recently. The Xtreme theater costs AUD 4 more than the usual discounted Tuesday tickets at Hoyts Melbourne Central (I accidentally bought it when I clicked on the wrong button online) and is extreme in a few things: the hall is extremely big, the screen is extremely big, the seats were (relatively) extremely comfortable and made of extremely faux leather and the sound system was extremely loud (it’s designed to make the deaf hear and those who can hear, deaf).

What made me poorer financially, also made viewing the next installment of the X-men a bit richer.

Almost everyone from the previous movies were back this time, although in their much younger form (this is after all, a prequel). So Prof X wasn’t a prof early in the movie, he could walk and he wasn’t bald. Magneto was actually a pretty cool guy back then before he turned into the sour old man that he was. Magneto and Prof X were even BFF then! Mystique was a bubbly and a little too chubby confused teenager. The Beast wasn’t a beast until a self-administered experiment went all wrong (lesson to be learned here – always practice on mice first and get the blardy FDA approval first!!!!). Hugh made a 5-seconds appearance as Logan and mouthed off 4 words – one of which was an expletive. Rebecca Romijn made a 2.5 seconds appearance as the matured Mystique ~ I think she put on weight!!!

There were new mutants introduced of course including a very short-lived adapter named Darwin (guess he couldn’t adapt very well after all), a teenage girl with dragon fly wings and spits burning lava balls, a guy whose shrill voice would put any Irish banshee to shame, a guy who can whip up typhoons, a red-complete-with-pointy-tail teleporting badass and a sexy telepathic with powers almost equal to Prof X’s and heaps more sexy!

And since there were all young, they all behaved badly. The origins of the various monikers of the characters were revealed in the movie which makes a comic-universe-virgin like me go, “Ah, so that’s how the names came about!”. It also revealed how
Professor X became wheel chair bound and how Magneto came by his ridiculous looking made-in-Russia anti-telepathy helmet!

Kevin Bacon played a post-Nazi era energy-hungry villain whose aim was to dominate the world with his team of rotten mutants. Spin the story into the Cuban Missile Crisis and we have one heck of a roller-coaster ride!

So, was the show good? You bet it was! It wasn’t awesome but it was good. I still liked the first X-men best. I totally enjoyed this movie and for the first time in Melbourne, the people sitting around me did not have the urge to update their Facebook status multiple times throughout the movie! I guess people who pay more to watch a movie are more civilized.

I didn’t get as much adrenaline rush as I did when I watched Fast 5 but it was quite good, nevertheless.

If I am given 3 wishes, I would wish for:
1. Wolverine’s retractable adamantium blades!
2. A session in the chamber that transformed a puny stick of a man into Captain America!
3. And no world peace, of course! To have such super powers and have no badass to kick would be tragic!

I rate the movie 7/10.

I’m gonna watch The Green Lantern next but will probably skip Transformers 3 (I’m allergic to pouty silicon filled lips unless those lips belong to Angelina Jolie!)

Pirates of the Caribbean 4

I went to watch the 4th installment of the ‘Pirates of the Caribbean’ franchise from Walt Disney Production. The tagline this time was “On Stranger Tides” but really, at the amount of (sexual) innuendoes in spewed out in the movie, it should have been named, “On Stranger’s Thighs”.

Most of the old favourites were back this time: Jack Sparrow with his idiosyncratic talk and catatonic walk, and…er…the monkey (only this time it was kept in a bottle), and er.. er…I just can’t remember the rest.

See how unmemorable the characters are!

There are new characters of course: Captain Blackbeard which wasn’t one bit terrifying, his bad-ass pirate daughter (played, unfortunately by Penelope Cruz), the oh-so-divine mermaid and a missionary whose best use of his Bible was to provide ventilation for a suffocating mermaid (see it to believe it).

Ho Hum…

You can guess by now, I was unimpressed with the movie. In fact, the first 40 minutes of the movie almost bored me to tears (that plus that blardy idiot (from Malaysia) sitting next to me who felt compelled to check and update his FB status every 6.35 minutes hurting my delicate eyes with the light of his iPhone – I almost wanted gouge his eyes out).

I must say this sequel was the worst of the lot. Sure, the funny one liners were there but they were few and far in between. The pirates were too clean – Captain Barbossa (Geoffrey Rush) looked worst cleaned up as a one-legged servant of the King of England than the dirty unkempt pirate that he was in all the previous 3 ‘pirates’ movies. Captain Jack Sparrow (Johnny Depp) looked like he had a face-lift with microabrasion done and now a spokesperson for Oral B dental products!

The background music this time was decidedly uninspiring and some how came out wrong in many sequences. The plot was paper-thin and chemistry between Jack Sparrow and Angelica (Penelope Cruz) was non-existent. I think Cruz did to this movie what Keira Knightly did to the last ‘pirates’ movie – she sank it.

Maybe I had too high an expectations for this movie. Maybe it’s because I watched it alone and not with my kids (who loved pirates!). Or maybe it’s because just the night before, I watched Penelope Cruz playing an unconvincing role as a doctor with WHO in the movie, Sahara, on TV.

I just didn’t like the movie at all!

I honestly think that movies about pirates are best shown with most of the action on the high seas and not the other way around. Otherwise, they wouldn’t be called ‘pirates’ in the first place, would they?!

The only highlight of the movie was the scenes where mermaids are shown.

Sigh….

I gotta get myself one of those mermaids ~ the non-biting variety, of course.

Furious at Fast 5

Yesterday I decided to watch the latest installment of the ‘Fast and Furious’ franchise – the 5th one (Rio Heist). Other than the 3rd (Tokyo Drift – which I thought was awful) I’ve followed the original and sequels avidly.

The action came on err….fast and furious and although the actors (Paul Walker and Vin Diesel) now look much older and spotting the beginning of a beer belly and double chin, watching them in action was an adrenaline rush! I had to remind myself to breathe a couple of times throughout the movie.

I’m not gonna give out any spoilers here. Frankly, there wasn’t much of a plot and a lot of the scenes purely defied logic but who cares!

I do, however wanna vent my unhappiness (fury, actually) with my fellow movie-goers.

Next to me sat 3 barely-post-pubertal Chinese who decided that the best way to watch the movie was to whisper into each others ears all the time! I really dislike people who whisper in an attempt to keep silent. The ‘whisp, whisp whisp’ sound annoys me greatly, reminding me of Voldemort’s pet snake.

And so, I moved to the end of the row.

And then, the Indian couple in front of me started to annoy me as well. I knew they were Indians because they WERE SPEAKING HINDI LOUDLY ON THE PHONE DURING THE MOVIE!!!!! What asses! Once the annoying conversation was over, the female half of the couple decided that checking her Facebook status was of more interest than the movie and continued to check her status throughout the movie. I don’t know about you but I found it annoying to have the light from her iPhone distracting me in the darkness of the cinema. It made the movie a whole lot less enjoyable.

Gaargh!!!!!!

I didn’t expect to encounter such unpleasant people in Melbourne (admittedly, it’s worst in Malaysia ~ there was a time I was watching a particularly emotional scene on the screen when an idiot’s phone went off with the “For He’s a Jolly Good Fellow” ring tone!!!) and I’m really disappointed. I guess people are the same everywhere.

Movie Marathon

I don’t really spend a lot of time watching movies these days. At my age, I find I have a shorter attention span (so any movies above 40 minutes can be quite a struggle – hence short clips like ‘How I met your mother‘ or ‘The Big Bang Theory‘ are a hit with me. Leave your brain outside, spend 40 minutes and you are entertained, happy ending included.

The other reason is because, at my age, 2 hours spent watching a movie can be considered a waste of precious minutes ticking away. So, I choose my movies carefully, preferring to watch movies that are deemed worth spending 120 minutes of my life on.

But of course, that rule is not set in stone. When I fell sick after coming back from Lorne 2 weeks ago, I was confined to my room for several days. There weren’t a whole lot of things one can do in a 10 x 10 feet apartment room.

And so I watched some movies. Seven of them in fact. Here’s what I think of them: (Beware! Spoilers ahead)

I watched Limitless at the movies on a day when I wasn’t feeling too sick. The movie starred Bradley Cooper as a down and out writer who could not write beyond the first word of his new novel. His girlfriend left him and he’s broke. In other words: Total Loser.

Enter his (ex)girlfriend’s brother who’s a drug dealer and the latter passed him a pill promising a ‘change’ when consumed. And oh, btw, the latter gets bashed to death in a most gruesome way.

Our guy takes the pill and thus began his roller coaster ride from the pit’s bottom to the pinnacle of success! Thereafter the movie moved at a rapid breathtaking pace, showing our ‘hero’ achieving one success after another (including getting back his ex-gf and running for president!) while running away from people who are after the same magical pill. I could do with one of them pills.

I thought it was pretty entertaining although the abrupt ending was a let down – a bit like not climaxing after 1.5 hours of foreplay. I give the movie a 5/10.

The next movie I watched was The Adjustment Bureau which was much touted as “Bourne Identity meets The Matrix” or something like that. The movie is about a guy (Matt Damon) who met a girl and fell in love with her in the men’s toilet (love at first sight it seems can happen anywhere, even in the loo) but was thereafter prevented from ever seeing her again by a bunch of men dressed like Mafia goons and running around like rabbits on heat.

As it turned out, these clumsy Mafia clods (and they were really clumsy) were angels working for ‘The Chairman” (read: God) and their job was to prevent the two love birds from falling in love and taking it further (read: copulate) because it was “not according to plan”.

Good grief! WALOC! (What a load of cr*p)

I hated the movie on so many levels. Matt Damon had a BMI of at least 30 kg/m2 in the movie (so any allusion to the Bourne Identity was purely fictional) although his co-star was divine. As for the Mafia goons, if I were an angel, I’d be insulted. And worst of all, the Chairman was portrayed as some one high up there who really doesn’t have a clue about what’s going on and seems to be losing the plot! He seems to make plans on an ad hoc basis! I’d rather be an agnostic than to believe in a God like that!

I give this movie a 2/10. Bleh!

The next movie I watched was Buried. Now, I like Ryan Reynolds. I thought he was cheeky-cum-awesome as DeathPool in Xmen Origins and I thought he was funny in The Proposal. And I’d give my left kidney to have a body like his.

But seriously, his one-actor effort in Buried should be, er…buried. Preferably 60 feet under. Let’s face it,  Ryan is no Tom Hanks in Cast Away (heck, Tom even had a Wilson soccer ball in his movie, so it wasn’t strictly a one-actor gig). The story about a truck driver who got buried in a casket by terrorists in the Iraqi desert for ransom with only a mobile phone as the only means of communication with the outside world and a lighter got illumination was about as exciting as watching grass grow. Even Colin Farrel did a better job in Phone Booth.

I give this one a 3/10.

I watched Surf’s Up on Aussie TV, mainly because there was nothing else to watch that night. The story was  about a penguin (voiced by that Transformers guy) who dreamed of being a world-class surfer dude but failing miserably until he met a surfer-has-been who taught him the ropes with the has-been-dude finding some sort of redemption and vindication in the end.

Ho hum… one could see the somewhat-happy ending a mile away.

Still, it was better than watching grass grow, so I give this one a 3/10.

Despicable Me was a delight to watch. I was actually quite taken in by the story (the 3 little orphan girls in the movie were collectively a major heart string puller). The story about a big-time-thief in his twilight years and his effort to pull off one last job (read: stealing the moon!) only to be challenged by an IT savvy, much younger and arrogant thief on every turn. The 3 orphan girls were in the story because they were connected to the old thief’s effort to steal a device from his younger counterpart which is used to shrink the moon into a more steal-able size. In the end, the old thief lost his despicable-ness and gained a heart.

All in all, it was a very delightful heart warming story. I loved it! I give this movie a 7/10.

I’ve always wanted to watch Pay It Forward but never got around to it, mainly because I’m not  big fan of Kevin Spacey (I always remember him as the sicko serial killer in Seven, although he played his role brilliantly in The Usual Suspects) nor am I a fan of Haley Joel Osment (I always remember him as the unbearably wimpy kid in AI). Helen Hunt, on the other hand is divine in all her movies. Anyway, I digress.

When this movie came on TV, I watched it while nursing a cold, a bad cough and a massive headache. Some how I managed to get through the story about a kid who dreamed up a novel ‘social experiment’ that had a domino effect in changing people’s lives. The trick is simple – do something for 3 other people that they cannot possibly do it for themselves and these 3 recipients of the benevolent acts will in turn do the same for 3 other people. It’s a bit like Multilevel Marketing, really.

The story line was good although I hated the ending – which sorta tells you that you run a risk of being killed while trying to do good! Okay, the kid dies at the end.

I give this movie a 6/10.

And finally, this was the movie I watched while being sick:

I generally shy away from watching horror movies because life itself is scary enough (you know, income tax, bills, Rare Earth Processing Plant, BN, C4, window exits at high rise building, sex videos etc etc….Malaysians will know what I am talking about) without having to add to it. That said, I didn’t feel one bit horrified when I watched this movie starring Sir Anthony Hopkins (one of the finest actor alive in my book) as an American Priest cum Exorcist assigned to coach a young Catholic priest on the fine art of casting out demons from possessed people. Did I tell you that the young apprentice does not believe in the Devil nor God?!!

And therein lies the dilemma. How do you cast out something that you don’t believe exist? And eventually when he was convinced that the Devil really does exist, where on earth does he get the power to cast out the old goat?! No way, unless he also then choose to believe in God, who alone has the power to overcome the evil one! Yeah, the devil got one hell of a whacking in the movie at the end.

I thought the pace of the movie was good, building up in suspense slowly until its climax. I know this movie was panned by most critics, some even suggesting that Anthony Hopkins was insane to play a role that is deemed beneath his acting prowess and reputation. I thought he did a great job portraying the broken priest, although there were moments that I half expected him to pries open the young Catholic’s skull and make sushi with his brain, ala Hannibal Lecter the Cannibal style! Heh heh!

I give this movie an 8/10.

There you have it! I sincerely hope I won’t have to go through another sickness-induced movie marathon anytime soon.

Movies!!!!

Being on (forced) annual leave together with the school holidays provided us with many opportunities to sit together and watch a movie, something quite difficult to do on normal working/schooling days. This time round, we really went on a movie marathon. Here are some of the movies we caught either on the big screen or on DVD at home.

Warning: Don’t read if you haven’t watched these movies!

The first movie we watched was a remake of the animated movie, The Princess and the Frog. Disney went back to the ‘classical’ way of making animated movies with this one – it being in 2D and (gasps!), a colored princess! Anyway, I really can’t tell you much about the movie, mainly because I fell asleep for about half the movie (I was post call and dead tired). What I can say, however, is this: it’s a little boring, the songs were not-memorable (unlike the opening sequence of say, the Lion King!) and the characters were only s0-so; no one really likable nor despicable. The twist and counter-twist at the end was a let down. I give it a 4/10.

Next, we went against popular negative opinion and watched ‘The Storm Warrior‘ – the 11 years late sequel to ‘The Storm Rider’. I must say my son, Ryan, was totally entertained and wishes very much to grow up to be like ‘Cloud’ when he grows up (efforts at telling him that looking buff and wielding a sword ain’t gonna bring food to the table was in vain). Personally, I was awed by the overuse (and abuse) of CGI effects! Some one lamented that the movie should be called ‘The Storm Posers’ instead because of the ridiculous amount of time both Aaron Kwok and Cheng Ekin took to post. Even Horatio Caine (CSI Miami) will be put to shame!

The 2 hapless and helpless beauties in the movie would have served their role better if they became part of the props! It was agonizing watching these 2 oriental bimbos trying to emote. It was like  saucerizing a carbuncle. Unfortunately, only one of them died (the other should have followed suit and be killed). The latter’s name was Er-Moong which means ‘Second Dream’ but she was more like a recurrent nightmare or a chronic non-healing ulcer.

The fight sequences were almost seizure-inducing. I really missed the graceful fight scenes like movies like ‘Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon’. This one was like watching comic book pages being turned at 120 km/hour. Sigh…

All said and done, I found the movie entertaining. I give it a 6/10.

Since we were in the Storm Warrior mood, I went to purchase the original part 1, ‘The Storm Riders‘ which was released 11 years ago and we watched it at home on DVD. I must say we enjoyed this one a lot more than part 2. At least the actors actually acted, a bit!

Next, once again, against popular negative opinion, we watched ‘The Proposal’, starring a very haggard looking Sandra Bullock, proposing to a very hunky and dashing Ryan Reynolds. Age disparity aside, we found immense fun and satisfaction watching this ‘romantic’ flick at home (so far we have watched it twice). There were no ‘F’ words spoken at all throughout the movie (okay, the ‘sweat drippin’ down my balls’ part are a bit suggestive)! We laughed till our belly aches and when they finally got together, we all went ‘awwww’. I loved it! I give it a 8/10

And then we took a trip on Nostalgia lane and watched the ‘Back to the Future’ series, Part 1, 2, and 3 at one go! The series starred a very young Michael J Fox and Christopher Lloyd. I used to remember back when I was a teenager, I eagerly waited for Part2 and 3 to be released in the cinema and each time it came, it was better than the last one! Totally awesome!

Despite being such an ‘old’ movie, my kids totally loved it! They loved everything about the characters, the plot, the twists, the time travelling….awwww….such such FUN!!!! I give it a 10/10!

And on Christmas eve, we watched a terribly videotaped version of  ‘A Christmas Carol’. The scenes were so dark we could hardly make out what is what. I am sure the original thing would have been quite a blast. My kids got a little frightened by the dark theme throughout the movie but I think they got the message in the end. I don’t think we will ever watch it again.

And then there were some movies that we watched after the children has gone to sleep. Here were some of them:

‘The Perfect Getaway’ was a good suspenseful watch in every way. The action was intense and throughout the movie, there was a palpable tension as we tried to figure out who is who. I am pleased to say I figured out the bad guy midway before the movie ends. My wife and I totally enjoyed the movie. I give it a 8/10.

And then there were movies which my wife found to be ‘so nice’ while I barely could keep my eyes open! Like this one:

We watched ‘Twilight’ on DVD and personally it was such a bore. I mean, if I am a girl like Bella, I wouldn’t fall in love with such an anemic looking guy. Oh, and another thing, I wished the girl’s name wasn’t Bella because Bella was the name of my wife’s dachshund back when we were teenagers. Imagining a dachshund falling in love with a vampire was just too much for me to bear.

My wife, on the other hand, totally loved the movie! She ‘oohed’ and ‘aahed’ over the panaromic scenes, the romantic nuances and etc etc. If I had my way, I would get the vampire to just bite the dachshund, errr, I mean, the girl and get it over already, instead of looking positively anemic and pained 92% of the movie. I give it a 2/10.

And if ‘Twilight’ was bad, ‘New Moon’ was beyond redemption. It was very painful to watch the dachshund, errr… I mean, Bella the girl trying to emote throughout the movie. It looked like she had constipation and dysmenorrhoea all at the same time. Gosh! And the werewolves? Other than taking every opportunity to show off their buff bodies, they were pretty redundant. I really suffered through this one. (Oh yes, my wife kinda like this one too….must be something to do with estrogen or something). Yuck!!! I hated this one. I give it a 0/10.

Next, we watched ‘The Butterfly Effect Part 3 – The Revelation’. I have watched the first one a long time ago which starred Aston Kutcher and I must say it was pretty revolutionary and good. Imagine this, the slightest alteration to the past would create a totally different future (a bit like a ‘Back to the Future’ remake). It was a novelty then.

Fast forward to Part 3 and frankly, I think you should not bother watching this one unless you wanna see how a coffee table may be used for some very intense sudorific coitus! I give it a 2/10.

‘Gamer‘ was a show whereby real criminals are used in a violent video game by super-spoilt and rich brats in what they thought to be just another video game. Gerald Butler plays one of the criminal who’s nickname is ‘The Slayer’ for his ability to survive the many stages of the game.

And the story line?

What story line?

Think ‘300 in a video arcade’ and you get the picture. I didn’t like the show at all. I give it a 2/10.

And finally, there’s the show that never quite made it to Seremban. We managed to get hold of a good DVD copy. Everyone said it was good! Everyone said it was ‘damn funny’ and everyone highly recommended it!

We watched ‘The Ugly Truth’. Yeah, we had some laughs.

But for most of the time, my wife and I were just plain disgusted with the movie.

Personally, I think this movie has brought the romantic comedy genre to a new low. I do not think that one has to resort to such crass to elicit some laughs.

Think ‘A romantic 300′.

The ‘vibrating panty’ scene might be good to those who have not watched ‘When Harry Met Sally’ but to me, it was a poor imitation of the latter.

Yeah, I laughed. I liked the twins in the jello pool! I didn’t like Gerard Butler in between the twins in the jello pool.

I disliked the movie. Romantic comedies should not be made like this.

I give it a 4/10.

There were other movies of course, which we are watching again; such as the Indiana Jones Series, the Jurassic Park series and some other nice movies we have tucked away to watch over and over again.

Next, we wanna catch ‘Sherlock Holmes’ on the big screen. Is it any good?
