Wondering what the shit I'm refering to?

[Sponsored Post] TOWER HEIST *movie review*

Thanks OMY , I was invited to TOWER HEIST movie preview screening with boy yesterday~~ and the movie is hilarious....

NOT SURE WHAT AM I TALKING ABOUT??!??!

This???!?! I believe you saw this poster around cineplexes.

MOVIE SYNOPSIS :
Ben Stiller and Eddie Murphy lead an all-star cast in Tower Heist, a comedy caper about working stiffs who seek revenge on the Wall Street swindler who stiffed them. After the workers at a luxury Central Park condominium discover the penthouse billionaire has stolen their retirement, they plot the ultimate revenge: a heist to reclaim what he took from them. Queens native Josh Kovacs (Stiller) has managed one of the most luxurious and well-secured residences in New York City for more than a decade. Under his watchful eye, nothing goes undetected. In the swankiest unit atop Josh’s building, Wall Street titan Arthur Shaw (Alan Alda) is under house arrest after being caught stealing two billion from his investors. The hardest hit among those he defrauded? The tower staffers whose pensions he was entrusted to manage.
With only days before Arthur gets away with the perfect crime, Josh’s crew turns to petty crook Slide (Murphy) to plan the nearly impossible…to steal what they are sure is hidden in Arthur’s guarded condo. Though amateurs, these rookie thieves know the building better than anyone. Turns out they’ve been casing the place for years, they just didn’t know it.

Alright.... I know its long~ so just watch the trailer here:  


So....... This movie is indeed funny!!
When I first saw the movie trailer in cinemas, I've already wanting to WATCH~
Come on.... its starring the 2 comedians: BEN STILLER & EDDIE MURPHY !!!  I love their movies~ they are so hilarious, and NOW..... they are both in the movie!!! *ting ting - double point*

I find it rather draggy in the introduction part that did not catch my attention... *opppx.... I'm actually day dreaming* BUT....when the revengeful mind started, it is just so FUNNY!! and nice~ 
Even though it is predictable... BUT it is still eggciting !! The planning.... the learning of becoming thief and most importantly their first attempts of stealing!!! It is just so funny~

You guys should catch it~ =D


AKEMI RATING: 4 STARS!!!  


TOWER HEIST coming to you in theaters starting from TOMORROW!!!! 
SO..... you know what to do lah~

Are you a fan of boxing? or a fan of robots?

How about: BOXING + ROBOTS???!?!
 - The chemistry is just AWESOME.................. after you've catch REAL STEEL!!!! 

YES!!!! Upcoming COOL & AWESOME robot boxing movie " REAL STEEL" !!! 

" A gritty, white-knuckle, action ride set in the near-future, where the sport of boxing has gone hi-tech, “Real Steel” stars Hugh Jackman as Charlie Kenton, a washed-up fighter who lost his chance at a title when 2000-pound, 8-foot-tall steel robots took over the ring. Now, nothing but a small-time promoter, Charlie earns just enough money piecing together low-end bots from scrap metal to get from one underground boxing venue to the next. When Charlie hits rock bottom, he reluctantly teams up with his estranged son Max (Dakota Goyo) to build and train a championship contender. As the stakes in the brutal, no-holds-barred arena are raised, Charlie and Max, against all odds, get one last shot at a comeback."

From there i bought a purple Casio watch @$25 (X got the same one when he was very young and he got it at $25 too!! well the price did not drop!)



and we headed down town to catch World Invasion:Battle Los Angeles !!


I tell you, this movie is DOPE SHIT!!!!! Simply COOL~

MOVIE SYNOPSIS
:
" For years, there have been documented cases of UFO sightings around the world – Buenos Aires, Seoul, France, Germany, China. But in 2011, what were once just sightings will become a terrifying reality when Earth is attacked by unknown forces. As people everywhere watch the world’s great cities fall, Los Angeles becomes the last stand for mankind in a battle no one expected. It’s up to a Marine staff sergeant (Aaron Eckhart) and his new platoon to draw a line in the sand as they take on an enemy unlike any they’ve ever encountered before. "

When the moment their ass are off their comfort zone to fight against those freaky aliens, there are simply no moments of rest!! Literately, I'm so on my guard for them. LOL~ the enemies is like 10 times stronger than mankind? and I've never so nervous while watching like a damned MOVIE??!?

At the back of my mind i know that they will succeed (movies are like that ALL THE TIME) but there will always "never ending" aliens especially their space ship!! IT'S BOMBASTIC!!!

I'm a very sentimental person..... This is a movie of sacrifices and i cried in some of their scenes~ this time round i will not be a bitch and spoil people mood. Good if you've watch it and understand which are the scenes i meant. For those who don't better CATCH IT NOW!!!

Hope you guys will like the movie as i DO!!!

[Sponsored Post] MORNING GLORY movie review~


Thanks OMY , I was invited to Morning Glory movie preview screening with X on Monday.




MOVIE SYNOPSIS
:
From director Roger Michell ("Notting Hill," "Venus"), producer J.J. Abrams ("Felicity," "Alias," "Lost," "Star Trek"), and writer Aline Brosh McKenna ("The Devil Wears Prada," "27 Dresses"), comes "Morning Glory," a new romantic comedy set in the hilarious and dysfunctional world of morning television. Rachel McAdams, Harrison Ford and Diane Keaton star along with Patrick Wilson and Jeff Goldblum.

"When hard-working TV producer Becky Fuller (McAdams) is fired from a local news program, her career begins to look as bleak as her hapless love life. Stumbling into a job at "Daybreak" (the last-place national morning news show), Becky decides to revitalize the show by bringing on legendary TV anchor Mike Pomeroy (Ford). Unfortunately, Pomeroy refuses to cover morning show staples like celebrity gossip, weather, fashion and crafts – let alone work with his new co-host, Colleen Peck (Keaton), a former beauty queen and longtime morning show personality who is more than happy covering morning "news." As Mike and Colleen clash, first behind the scenes and then on the air, Becky's blossoming love affair with fellow producer, Adam Bennett (Wilson) begins to unravel – and soon Becky is struggling to save her relationship, her reputation, her job and ultimately, the show itself."

* Watch the trailer below!!*


Hmmmm.... This movie is GOOD!! Not as boring as i thought it might be~
There are so many moments that i busted out my laughter without thinking about my etiquette.. Wahahahahahaha.... Because its simply, HILARIOUS~ I felt so good and happy watching it!! I felt so "fluffy" LOL~ like how Harrison Ford said so.

TUA SEH KAI movie review~

I was still having my CNY break and we decided to watch Tua Seh Kai ( it's a great great world) !!! I always want to catch it ever since i watched the "in the making" of this movie and know that is about a legendary amusement park of Singapore.


Well obviously I'm not from that era but i definitely love watching movies that is connected with the past~

" IT'S A GREAT GREAT WORLD is set in Singapore's legendary amusement park - Great World, which was also affectionately known in Hokkien as Tua Seh Kai or . Spanning the 1940s to the present day, the film tells the stories of a multitude of characters who lived, worked, played, sang, danced and fell in love in Great World. "





Booked the tix the day before, its rather hot selling~ Hah.... *to the elderly*

It was my first time watching movie during weekdays at 1.15 pm and yet it is still FULL HOUSE. When we went in the cinema, surprising, WE ARE THE YOUNGEST AMONG ALL!!!

The cinema was packed with the elderly, aunties,uncles. I guess they like to reminiscing the past when great world is still around~


Anyway, thou I do not know how was it like in the past but it is really interesting to know and realize from this movie!! The mixture and the use of dialects made it very heartwarming-ly funny..imagine it is all spoken with mandarin, it will definitely look fake and boring~

ME LIKE!!!! 5 STARS~


Learn and feel lots of things while watching, compared to us ( the current generation), its of world of difference. Naively, i feel, if we could remain some of the past characteristic and thinking in that era, wouldn't it be nice ??!?! 人人为我,我为人人 ....

Overall, its a watchable movie if you are interested to know more about the past (there are also photography of the past to add the taste!!!) !!!

Coincidentally, during the CNY visit later in the night, nai nai (ting's granny) told me that, her 相亲 with her hubby was at GREAT WORLD!!! and she told me her story of the 相亲 ....See, how nice! I do not know how could i describe my love for knowing the past of singapore and people.... It is just basically SO INTERESTING compared to NOW!!!! *guess i belonged to that era*


CIAO~ time to sleep now!!!
This marks the end of my TAI TAI DAYS!!!! =(
*back to reality*
