Movie Review: The Last Stand

Seriously a must-watch movie. You should watch The Last Stand. Nuff said.

As usual, this is another free movie premiere screening invitation I won through ChurpChurp pulak. Went to watch #Churpremiere with Fareed Adaboyas usual at TGV One Utama yesterday. The day before, was at the same place watching #NNPremiereScreening of Mama courtesy of Nuffnang.

Synopsis of The Last Stand: a notorious yet handsome convict in a high-speed chase by the police,the FBI. Heading towards Mexico. All effort to stop him was futile due to his damn good skill driving the Corvette ZR1. Plus his superb team that knows how to break the flimsy police barricade (duhhh). The last town he need to pass thru before Mexico, is Summerton Junction-location of Sheriff Ray (Arnold Schwarznegger).

Ok la. This movie is  not that great compared to other blockbuster movie. But I find it very enjoyable. The high speed chase was nice, though I think the FBI are way too dumb.  But the jahat-ness and creativeness of the criminals- really best!

The best part? The part I personally love the most, was at Mrs. Salazar’s house!! Haha.. everybody in the cinema was laughing non-stop, we couldn’t help ourselves!! Then after that a serious moment, Dinkum was shot. But right after that, we were laughing again coz of his clanging helmet..Oh my. The best 5mins of the movie I must say.

My verdict? Recommended! I seriously enjoy the movie. I give 5 out 5 stars for The Last Stand.

 I really salute the director and the actors for being able to blend action, serious and hilariously funny altogether in the movie.

Next week, going to watch #NNPremiereScreening of Hansel & Gretel pulak. jangan jeles!

Movie Review: Mama

I’m scared of ghost and horror movies/stories. I never watch horror movies at the cinema.

But I’ve watched it 2 times because I win #NNPremiereScreening from Nuffnang. Huhu. I decided to just challenge myself, since it was free. My 1^st time: Sinister.

Sharizan with his 1st ever invitation

My 2^nd time: Mama. Aside from being a free premiere screening, I personally want to watch it coz I love Guillermo Del Toro’s work. My movie review of Mama: Beautifully scary. The sound effect, the ghost, the storyline-I love it! Eventhough I sometimes watched it behind my cardigan or closing my eyes, haha.

Just like Pan’s Labyrinth, it feels kinda like a twisted fairytale. The kids in Mama are awesomely scaring me with their act. The ending-not really a happy one. I didn’t find it surprising since Del Toro seems to prefer that type of ending.

My verdict: 4 out of 5.

Oh ya, I watched this ghost movie, with a “hantu” namely Fareed Adaboy.

Movie Review: Jack Reacher

Another premiere Screening. This time thanks to both Nuffnang and ChurpChurp. I won 2 contest. So end up winning 4 free tickets

to watch #NNPremiereScreening and #Churpremiere of Jack Reacher. hehehehe. Watch it last night dgn Fareed, Hanif and Hilmi at Tropicana City Mall. So here is my movie review of Jack Reacher yaa..

In case you didnt know, this movie is based from a novel by Lee Child, One Shot. I never read the novels, but watching this movie make me want to buy 1! An ex-army investigator trying to solve a case involving a trained military sniper who shot five random victims. 

As a mystery thriller novel lover, I enjoyed the 1st half of the movie. I felt like reading a book coz the dialogue is playing with words. You need to catch up, need to understand the mystery quickly. I'm happy to catch up with Jack Reacher's thoughts and his wise jokes.

Having said so, if your English is not that good, or you hate books, you will find the 1st half hour such a bore. Like Mr. Fareed who slept "occasionally". haha. He found it a bit berbelit-belit and talk too much.

Then when the investigation getting deeper,with more action,then only the beat picked up. Lots of shooting, action. Best!

My verdict: 4 star. This is the kind of movie yang I hope for James Patterson's novels. Sadly, all his novel adaptation failed. Sebab tu I refuse to watch Alex Cross latest movie  =(

Fareed's verdict: kepala berbintang2. haha.
And Tom Cruise still ensem.

Movie Review: Here Comes the Boom

As usual, i won another #NNPremiereScreening.

mode: berlagak tak hengat! haha. This time its for Here Comes the Boom.

Prior to watching it, I googled about it-as usual. Rotten Tomatoes rated it around 34%. Based from the review, I thought this was just another stupid funny movie. But what the heck, this is a free movie. So, why not?

Turns out, this is a really FEEL GOOD MOVIE! We enjoyed it from the very 1st minute off it! This was not just an OK movie, okeh?! hehe.

Here Comes the Boom is about a lazy biology teacher who was willing to enter Mixed-Martial Art (MMA) competition to raise fund to prevent a music teacher from being laid off.In doing so, he was beaten up pretty much in this movie.

For more Here Comes the Boom review-you can just google it. But what I can tell you, Salma Hayek and Charice are in this movie. The movie is funny. We were really laughing, clapping at some part. There was also "oohh" and "aaah" moment. Penonton hari ini sporting!

After the movie, I feel good. Puas! Which I dont feel too often after watching a movie. The verdict: YOU SHOULD WATCH IT. Highly recommended. Unless you are way too geli to watch fat guy in action. haha.

4 star. Better than Wreck It Ralph.

Yiiihaa! I won again exclusive invitation for ChurpPremiere - Soar into the Sun! Jangan jealous ya..

Actually I lost in the 1st place. Huhu. I entered the contest under Nuffnang for #NNPremiereScreening Soar into the Sun. This is my entry at Nuffnang:

What you would name your very own personal fleet of fighter jets and what would be your signature attack move?

 

When I didnt get the invitation-I straight away tried my luck under ChurpChurp pulak. Lucky me, the dateline for ChurpChurp, was later than Nuffnang. This is my winning entry:

“If you could fly a jet, what would you name it and what are you going to do with it?”

Movie Review: The Watch-Nuffnang Premiere Screening

Yes. I won again exclusive invitation for Nuffnang Premiere Screening. This time for The Watch movie. On 28 August, 9.30 pm at 1 Utama. My 3rd win in a row. Hattrick!

Reached I Utama at 8.30, but the counter is still not open. So it's a long queue for Nuffnang and ChurpChurp counter. Easy la to find the counter-look for the ChurpChurp bunting.. hehe.  The only person i know is Henry of CleverMunkey. But I didnt even say hi to him.hehe. This time i watch the movie with my Backpackers Buddies-Syida.

About The Watch movie review. Hmm, this is definitely 18PL rating. About Evan (Ben Stiller) and his gang in Neighborhood Watch to find out his staff killer. Turns out aliens who plan to destroy the area/planet. Tacky movie i must say.

Lots of sexual contents, cursing and not pleasing to my ears. It was too overloaded. OD. I do laugh here and there, but the story is disappointing. Yang paling kelakar Jonah Hill and Richard Ayoade. Ben Stiller and Vince Vaughn not entertaining me at all.

My verdict? I'm not even interested to download this movie. I will not fork out my money to see this movie. Still thanks for #NNPremiereScreening!

Review: Katy Perry Part of Me 3D Movie

Want to know Katy Perry Part of Me movie review? Want to know how to get free tickets to watch it? Read on..

I won again invitation from Nuffnang for #NNPremiereScreening to watch Katy Perry Part of Me 3D movie at GSC 1 Utama. Some of my frens were like "WTH? Its not really a movie, right?"

Yup. This is not a fictional movie, but more like a documentary of her. I didnt watch Justin Bieber's Never Say Never movie, but I think Katy Perry's is better. No offends ya Beliebers. hehe.

Here is my Katy Perry Part of Me movie review:

 

• Colourful. Really feasting my eyes on all the colours, wardrobes, displays and Katy Perry's herself. Gorgeous! My fav is Peacock performance.
• Fantastic concert! Snippet from the concerts, shows that she is really an entertainer. And what a marvellous, grand setup for the concert. I really love the part she keeps on changing her wardrobe like a magic trick.  =)
• This movie shows how Katy Perry struggles for years, not at all an overnight success.
• I'm really glad to see that Katy Perry is just like a girl next door. She is not a phony or faking it.
• I thought she is just a puppet my record labels-to create the next Lady Gaga. Believe me-it's not!

Katy Perry was crying before her biggest concert in Brazil.

• I was holding back my tears, when the movie shows how it breaks her heart when her relationship with Russel Brand failed. Especially during the concert in Brazil.She really loves him. Russell Brand jahat!
• All her songs are great! Includes Extraterrestial E.T. (my fav), Fireworks, I Kissed a Girl (her breakthrough song) and others.

 

• I love seeing her fresh face. Especially the left image when she was 17. Rosy! She looks really different without the makeup. Kinda sad seeing her face is worn out due to hectic schedule and lots of makeups.
• Her parents loves her, even though they dont really agree with her choice.

• I cant stop thinking about how handsome Katy Perry's manager: Bradford Cobb. Mesti gay. Dush!

Katy Perry Part of Me released date in Malaysia is on 30 August 2012.
Worth to watch in 3D for the colours. Money well-spent. But if you want to get free tickets, go to Free Tickets: Katy Perry Part of Me.

** Prior to the movie, it shows snippets from Grease movie: You're the One That I Want.
** Fav. quote: 

#1:"We love Katy Perry, and we don't care how old we are," said 2 mature ladies in the movie. 
#2: Katy asking her grandma how was the concert. "Loud," is all she answered.
