A Christmas Carol

Sunday, November 29th, 2009

As Christmas is approaching, more and more movies that have the Christmas theme are proliferating quickly. A Christmas Carol is one of them; however, do know that certain parts of the film may seem scary to children. Although there are the usual Christmas jingles and cheers, there are also spirits and ghouls which are aptly [...]

The Blue Mansion

Monday, November 16th, 2009

The pineapple king dies… mysteriously. Or so, it seems.   This film by Glen Goei is one of the best “local” movies in Singapore. However, since it is categorised under Singapore/Malaysia in reference to the mixed cast from both nationalities, I would leave it as that. Glen Goei’s last movie was Forever Fever which was [...]

Sinema Experience

Sunday, November 15th, 2009

Home to Local Cinematography Knowing that you have tickets to the Sinema Experience at Old School is a good enough reason for you to want to take the day off work and if you are a girl, to dress up and enjoy a cozy evening together with your other half. Singles out there can also [...]

G-Force Movie Review

Wednesday, September 30th, 2009

In my honest opinion, this film is somehow quite disturbing to me. I would have loved the film to be an animation instead of lifelike guinea pigs. But it is supposed to be aimed at children so they might look at it in a different light. Anyway, the film is still just as entertaining with [...]

9 Movie Review

Tuesday, September 15th, 2009

Harry Potter and The Half Blood Prince Movie Review

Thursday, September 3rd, 2009

Every self proclaimed Potter fan should have read the books before heading to the cinemas, and although this film is still enjoyable, it is definitely lacking in many aspects. Before I list them down and discuss about them, you may want to go catch it for yourself first or maybe, want to stop reading here [...]

UP Movie Review

Wednesday, September 2nd, 2009

The movie began with the grumpy old man (in my opinion) in all the movie posters. His name is Carl Frederickson voiced by Ed Asner. He has had a really long and eventful life, which started after he met his wife to be at that time, young Ellie (Elie Docter). Both of them started a [...]

Bruno Movie Review

Tuesday, September 1st, 2009

There is only one word to describe the film, Brüno – Satire. And one at its best, no less. Starring the intelligent Sacha Baron Cohen as Brüno, the film is poised to surpass Borat, which started screening in 2006. Brüno is gay and not afraid to let others in on it. He made his mark [...]
