MOVIE REVIEW: THE IMITATION GAME

Image
I never really like a movie which is solely based on a person's biography, that is because I always think of it as less interesting comparing to other movie. The Imitation Game proves me wrong with their excellent actors and also superb storyline.  During World War II, mathematician Alan Turing ( Benedict Cumberbatch ) tries to crack the enigma code with help from fellow mathematicians. THE GOOD Benedict Cumberbatch as Alan Turing really takes you on an emotional roller coaster. He is assisted by Keira Knightley, who plays Joan Clarke, the love of his life. Both of them showed so much on screen chemistry and such convincing acting in their roles that we forgotten that this is actually a movie. Benedict Cumberbatch nail his role as a cryptography genius and also a weirdo almost so convincingly that I somewhat think that Alan Turing was him or his ancestors.  THE BAD The ending was badly rushed. That is because I guess most of the movie focuses...

MOVIE REVIEW: JUPITER ASCENDING

Image
The Wachowskis is back this time with a bigger much more science fiction kinda world compared to Matrix, but the big question remains is this better than the Matrix? It certainly is not, I can tell you that. This movie brings out a different feel from the usual Wachowskis aside from their absolute perfect graphics, the storyline has it flaws, lots of it. Jupiter Jones ( Mila Kunis ) was born under a night sky, with signs predicting that she was destined for great things. Now grown, Jupiter dreams of the stars but wakes up to the cold reality of a job cleaning toilets and an endless run of bad breaks. Only when Caine ( Channing Tatum ), a genetically engineered ex-military hunter, arrives on Earth to track her down does Jupiter begin to glimpse the fate that has been waiting for her all along - her genetic signature marks her as next in line for an extraordinary inheritance that could alter the balance of the cosmos. THE GOOD The whole idea of different civilisation in other ...

MOVIE REVIEW: THE WEDDING RINGER

Image
This is a show for the foreveralone, Doug Harris ( Josh Gad ) will be marrying the lady of his dreams, Gretchen Palmer ( Kaley Cuoco-Sweeting ). 2 weeks before his marriage, he has no best man or friends. So he hired Jimmy Callahan ( Kevin Hart ) CEO of Best Man Inc, a company which provides flattering best man for socially challenged guys in need.  THE GOOD The show is for the light hearted, lots of humours and also much bromance moments. The storyline sync perfectly with the havoc that is created by Kevin Hart and Josh Gad. These two clowns seems like they have been friend even before the show started filming. You can see lots of bromance and natural moments as we progress through the show. Kevin Hart single handedly carried the movie as his characteristic is simply natural for the movie.  THE BAD Like every other romance comedy, the end are much predictable. Besides that, they are some loopholes in the movie especially with Kevin Hart disguising to the be...

MOVIE REVIEW: TRACERS

Image
So Mr Taylor Lautner is back, this time not on all fours but he is real human instead. He is a York City bike messenger who is wanted by the mafia escapes into the world of parkour after meeting a beautiful stranger. Then it spiral off into romance as usual, so read up and do support me if you like it. (maybe share or comment will do :P)  THE GOOD Lots of running and more running! I personally feel it is good because this is kind of pacing is rare in a movie, started of with cycling and then parkour which is good for different change in the usual run and gun action movie. It also shows the versatility of Taylor Lautner as he grow from his role of being a blardy dog (no, not a wolf, it's a dog). The pacing of the movie and the storyline feels just nice not being too fast or way too slow. The storyline was also something believable not blown over the top.  THE BAD  While it is a parkour movie, it shows how easy for you to learn parkour. All you need to ...

GAME REVIEW: CALL OF DUTY ADVANCED WARFARE

Image
That's right, it is this EPIC. Yeah game has been out since November 2014 and I am only writing about it now. That is because I recently just gotten the urge to play the single player and throughout the whole game, no regrets. I actually finished the game two weeks back and totally forgotten about it because it was the New Year and after that I went to Krabi (going to blog about it this real soon, I promise!). This is a SINGLE PLAYER review only.  The story takes place in 2054, where the world is currently being controlled by the largest private military corporation called ATLAS. Over here, you play one of the military soldier which is under ATLAS after some mishap that leads you to lose the ability to fight as a soldier. So, ATLAS approached you to grant you that SECOND chance.  The main fun for Single Player is the grappling hook. Watch the video below and you will see the grappling action which will provide you more than enough fun throughout the campaign.  ...

TOP 5 EPIC STATEMENTS FROM MY MUM

Image
Edisi Jangan Persoal for this blogpost because it is my mum, one does not question a mum. (not all the time) When I was much younger, my mum always say things which makes you either afraid or guilty (most of the time both). Thinking back, some of them make almost close to no sense. As much as I love her, the statement that comes out from her mouth, scare or scar the hell out of me. You know what they say about mothers right, don't question them (or in the word of wise Malaysia: JANGAN PERSOAL or TAK SUKA KELUAR) 1. The Food Lies Back in the days, my mum always mention a certain food mainly vegetables and fishes which I dearly hate. If you don't eat vegetable, later your body won't be strong, you must drink this soup, it is good for your body you know. Other than that, my mum always mention these exact word when I refuse to eat fish: eating fish makes you smart, you want to be stupid issit! This is for you to grow your brain.  2. The Disciplinary Excuse If mummy ...

K-EFLECTION: BYE 2014, HELLO 2015

Image
2014 was not a strong year to begin with but throughout the year, it gotten much much better and I am thankful for that. I have compile a list of things which I learnt throughout the year, the source can be from close ones or simply just observing things that has been happening.  1. Take the chance(s) As much as you think I am in the #YOLO generation, there are more than one time I did not take the chance to leap myself forward but then over thinking got the best of me and ultimately FEAR got the best of me thus I decided to just let it slip to someone else. This coming 2015, I think I should take as many chances as I can just to you know, to compensate for whatever I miss in 2014 :D.  Took this leap of faith, but not others. Damn! 2. Keep your trust 2014 certainly showed me what type of people you can meet. If you have doubt, keep your trust. Never trust too early. Friendship can change throughout the year, it is okay if you are a little selfish towards your...
