I think it's a good movie which's taken from a very French point of view~ Of course I m not a French nor knowing French very well... but it's a very French thinking that I observed from Stephane and some other movie~ Yea~ I do think it's a very good movie to show what kinda environment of ppl grow up from some other countries~ and how different is our culture compare to others~ If you think, yea, it's just a movie, and I can tell you, it's actually true and it's probably quite common in some other part of the world. :)

Élève libre (7.5)
I think it's a good movie which's taken from a very French point of view~ Of course I m not a French nor knowing French very well... but it's a very French thinking that I observed from Stephane and some other movie~ Yea~ I do think it's a very good movie to show what kinda environment of ppl grow up from some other countries~ and how different is our culture compare to others~ If you think, yea, it's just a movie, and I can tell you, it's actually true and it's probably quite common in some other part of the world. :)
Bodyguards and Assassins 十月圍城(5)
Um... I actually think it is not a good movie at all that no one really need to see it... It's just a movie that fit all into the boundaries from China not stepping any lines, trying to please some stupid ppl who blindly love their country without thinking what's better for their country. I m sorry to say but it's a typical, non-creative, a-lot-of-stars kinda movie. And the visual is not even nice. The story is boring, the actors are not acting that great... yea.. it's a lot of movie stars in the movie but it;s just not right. The director spends 10000 piece of films to tell how the ppl contribute their life to protect the "father of China", and each single film was trying to tell us how moving and tragic it was~ isn't it a bit too much? We can see they have plenty of budget to make the thing looks nice but that's all money can buy. Money can buy a lot of hardwork from people. But what money cannot buy (for this movie) is a tiny creative thought which pretty depends on the director I guess. It's just simply a boring movie without any deep thought behind it. Unfortunately, It's for the general public who don't give any thinking to what they see.
Btw, the scene that Leon Lai act in it, who looks like a crazy person speaking and acting like crazily, is probably the only not-as-boring part. He does add some value to the movie but the director who put the Lee Ka Yan shot at the end of the scene that reiun the whole thing (does he actually think it's a sense of humor?!), making the whole movie even worse! 6 points is for the hardwork for the whole movie, and minor 1 is what the director does to the movie.
Avatar (7.5)
Um... I've seen this movie twice. the first time I saw it, I did find it a very good one. From the CGs to the........ um well... I think this movie is all about CGs, I dont really know what can I comment other than CG~~ hahaa... and I didn't expect this movie more than that anyway. A lot of scenes are very very beautiful and the story is super simple. I guess that's what make it a very popular movie. Obviously, marketing does help a lot. The 3D must-see movie kinda strategy lead the whole huge successful is doubtless for sure.
Okay, the first time I saw it, it wasn't a good seat at all. It's pretty much at the very right side of the screen and it's kinda hard to see very clearly what's happen in the movie especially with the 3D glasses. I guess it was the whole atmosphere and the pretty scenes, I did found it a very good movie to look at. But when I saw it the second time, I do find it not as good. t's looking very much like computer games scenes and they don't really look original.. Well I guess it's not that important indeed... as long as most of the people find it original, who cares about those gamers... haha but then I kinda dislike the acting quite a bit, although it's not much in the movie. You know the bad guy looks really bad...
Btw, I m not sure if it's true, but the later close up scenes of the Avatar were probably done quite a bit later than the wide shoots. haha... they looks much much better than the wide shoots really...
Yea, if you haven't seen it yet, go and have a look. At least you know what everyone's talking about. And when it's not even a talking point no more, um... yea... it's nice to see it but not a must-see movie really~~~ haha...

Synecdoche, New York (?)
It's a story about a drama director. He's got an drama award (with a massive prize) at the very beginning of the movie which allow him to prepare another creation and that's what the whole movie about. It's taken like all the rest of his life to prepare and never really ended.
I don't really know how to rate this movie seriously. I just found it a cool idea and super complicated thought in this movie and I did enjoy most of the movie especially the middle part of it, feeling I can't miss any single conversation in it. But when it come to almost the end I guess it's just a bit too long and seems to be never ended. I did find it a bit boring at the almost ending part.
It does lead to a lot of thinking after the movie. If you ask me weather I like the movie, I would give it a yes but when you ask me what if I think about it, I would probably say complicated and a bit boring at the end~ haha... doesn't seems to be some reasons for liking a movie, but that's quite true... Okay ... if I have to rate it, I would give it a 7.5...
:D:D~~~
The Storm Warriors II, 風雲II (7.5)
People keep saying this movie is kinda disappointing. I guess it's more about what do ppl expect before going in to the cinema for this movie. Well I never really see a single comic of it and I guess I can't really judge its story which I never expect from this movie. What I expected from this movie was a lot of nice CGs and stuff and probably some cool sounds effect, etc and I do think this 90 mins in the cinema didn't upset me at all. No matter how much similar effect we've seen from "300" shown in this movie, I think no one can say, they did a bad job on the CG part here... and they do have some nice effect I never seen on other movies on some fighting scene.
Well, the acting for Tze Ting Fung and ah Sa do bother me a bit :P but other than that, I think everything are quite reasonable and kinda cool. And again the CG does help... I think, when you have some extra time, wanna have some not-too-much-brain-exercise entertainment, go for it~

釋懷~
Indeed I'm not sure if I really did~~ I think i was a bit too much in love with my illustration project~~ yea but really thanks Louie spent time to talk to me trying to explain or comfort me watever~~ it's not the best ending but at least I know I didn't waste time and pissing ppl off~~ it's not that I can't do it but all abt communication. And it's wrong move from the beginning. That guy called Calvin, I understand but shame on wat you did as a creative~~ it does show how narrow minded you are as a person!!!
Apollo 13 (9)
Finally I could spare a quality 2 hours for this movie and it didn't disappointed me! I think I've seen a part of it long time ago and I did think I had to enjoy it when I really hv the time to~~ it's such a good movie! Although it's been taken like 15 years ago, I do find all the details and special effect as good as the Star Trek last year~~ I guess it's all about how much efford and how serious the director and all the crew treat the quality. Its such a great story that had really happened (has it? Haha it's looks like it dose~~ lol)

插圖記
點解要咁?!係咪當一個人變成係客戶(其實今次都只算係合作)就會變得唔駛對自己講過嘅嘢負責、唔須要理人感受同專重人?可悲嘅係呢一種對人嘅唔專重,响我哋個社會已經變成一種何等普遍嘅事情!本來,對自己所做嘅決定負責係多麼的天公地義呀!幾時開始,遇到一個咁樣嘅人已經變成一種幸運?對客戶嘅呢種不負責任,大概大家都已經感到盲目,但係就連一啲自己做創作嘅人都唔例外,我真係有啲唔舒服。係咪因為呢啲事過於普遍?角色一換,大家都忘記晒責任同要專重創作者。其實响呢度已經不只一次遇到呢啲事情,一句商業決定/考慮,就可以將之前嘅所謂「決定」、甚至係協議都推倒~ 就可以置別人努力嘅成果於不顧。(我想話,我啲客都唔會咁架!我真係要對佢哋好啲!)我哋呢個地方所謂做創作嘅人真係值得其他人專重咩?可能我重係太偏執,面對呢啲事情,我都真係會訓唔着。唸清楚啲,真係無問題?真係真係無問題?希望我自己以此為鑑、時刻警惕,唔會俾你哋同化!!
