I think I bought Angelina Jolie for $8.50.

500 Days of Summer


Caught this movie over the weekend.

Don't we all know somebody with the "summer" effect? The kind of effect which brings cheer and good fortune to all those around.

The movie makes one think. At the end of the day, I reached two conclusions (which I have reached even before watching the movie)

1. That sometimes, its about meeting the right person. Then everything falls in place. Until then, you are like a rudderless ship.

2. That as much as fate plays a part in life. Its also about grabbing chances.

The movie was quite good. It seemed slow at parts, but it all contributed to the completeness of the story. In some ways, it seemed like an art-house indie film, with animation used, characters addressing the audience... not all Hollywood.

Would give it 7 out of 10. Should watch.

Julie & Julia


The ST reviewer was almost right. The 2 actresses did SAVE this movie.

But he was wrong for giving it 3.5 ticks.

What was the movie going-on about? My friend YSW summed it up perfectly after the movie. IT HAD NO PLOT!

Sure, the director tried to link the lives of 2 women, from 2 different times, who started their affair with cooking in order to find themselves...

But thats it!

The movie was 2 hours long, and you could feel every. freaking. minute. of. it. In my opinion, it could have been cut to 1.5 hours and not made a difference to storyline. I mean, it was so slow and bland that several people in the cinema walked out to take toilet breaks.

YSW made a point about Meryl Streep's acting. I thought she over-acted and perpetually looked drunk. YSW said that perhaps this movie would have been appreciated better by Americans who grew up with Julia Child, and perhaps, Julia was such a character as portrayed by Streep.

Perhaps.

But in my opinion, the worst "based on a true story" movie I have ever seen.

Flip the bird at some people.

And to top it all off...


And as if to top off a rubbish week... I had...
1. One shitty conversation with a snake in the carpark on Friday
2. Got an epiphany about how I might have majorly read someone wrongly
3. One birth, One death. Which conflicts me.
4. One shitty experience at the public pool on Sunday.

Tired.

Defending the Cavemen


This show was touted to be the longest running 1-man show in Broadway. This was its second run in Singapore.

It angle was to explain to women why men do things or act in a certain way, which can be explained by them being remnants of cavemen evolution. In a light-hearted way, it explained why problems arise because men are so different from women, just by the virtue of men evolved from hunters and women gatherers.

"Defending the Cavemen" took 2 seperate meanings.

1. Defending the actions of the Cavemen for what we do because of our evolution.

or

2. How women, by being better at information gathering and attention to detail, defend the Cavemen who can be too focused on something, and ignoring all threats around them.

However, I think I'm not a big fan of monologues.

Like how I did not enjoy the Hossan Leong show, I didn't quite enjoy this one either. I thought the lines fell flat from delivery and weren't very imaginative.

Did the actor want to involve the audience or not? Maybe its because we Singaporeans are not used to interacting in a play - but the response was muted. But then again, a lot of foreign faces were spotted as well. And they were silent too. Perhaps then, it was because it did appear to be just a monologue, which did not want an audience to participate.

Only after the intermission did it pick up the fun-factor. But thats only cos he moved on to sex.

I must say, the play did hit the nail on the head on many points. And so, it wasn't unpleasant.

5/10 - the run is over, u can't watch it even if u wanted to. but then again, you ain't missing much =P
