Movie Review: Apocalypto & Metrosexual

Hey hey, it’s my 2 cents worth of movie review agn..!! kekeke…not tt I’m rich (coz it’s my 3rd movie in as many wks..kekek…n 2 r over e WKEND…bloody exp!!), but there’re TRULY TOO MANY movies not 2 b MISSED!!!…n there’re more 2 come, such s 300, Law sth (Jack Neo’s film) & many others…ok! Now’s my honest review..


Movie #1 - Sat: Apocalypto
Director: Mel Gibson
Cast: Virtual unknown
http://apocalypto.movies.go.com/

Set way b4 e great Christopher Columbus discovered tis island, 600 yrs 2 b exact..a rough guess, roughly b4 1000 A.D…history’s not my strong subj… :p

E main flaw abt tis show is, e plot’s not strong..there’s nth much left 4 imagination…everything’s been expected..it’s a simple plot, period! Not worth my $8.50…may pay abt 4 bucks jus 4 e elaborated details on e prop set-up, costume n make-up…e make-up n costume were great!! V intricate design…well done, make-up artists!!…n 4 e hot blooded males, there’s SOME tits jiggling ard in e start in e first 15-20mins..coz e Mayan ppl r raised in e jungle, so tt explained y..BUT dun expect much aft tt, coz there’s a civilization alrdy evolved wearing clothes…

Since it was rated M18, I expected more gore n blood…there’s v minimal…v disappointed..e most should b jus NC16…nth much 2 worry abt…mayb they shouldn’t edit so much away…ttl time was 139 mins…kinda smooth rhythm…not much extreme ups n downs…so it wouldn’t keep u at e edge of yr seat… :p

Well, given e costume n make-up effort, 2 ½ popcorn…keep workin hard Mel, my brother...Oh ya! chk out its website for its amazing downloads n webbie design...it's wicked!! hv fun!! :p


Movie #2 - Sun: Metrosexual
Director: Yongyoot Thongkongtoon (The Iron Ladies)
Cast: Unknown in Singapore..hahaah…but gd-lookin nonetheless..

As e name implies, it covers subjs on being Straight n Gay guys…hmmm…once agn, disappointed…e show doesn’t justified its M18 rating…e topics r normal everyday chit-chat agenda…no tits, no nudity, no taboo subjs, no NTH!! Even e talk abt taboo subjs r delivered in an indirect way..so there is should jus b NC16..these censorship board dun knw nuts abt putting ratings…stupid!

Anyway, on e flip side, it talks abt friendship, dun obstracise gays or any other sexual identity..but I think gays r more badly hit than butches/lesbian…u can easily c girls walkin hand-in-hand but u dun get weird stares…but when guys do tt, u get tongues waggin…unfair rite!! Pity those gays sometimes…despite e uncomfortable stares, they still hv 2 face these ppl head strong n put on a façade of being funny n nice…tt speaks sooooo well of our society…in e US or European cities, things r way diff…so gay ppl (lesbian/gays n trans), if u hv e money, go 2 US..think u’re b treated better there than anywhere else in e world, esp Asia…mindset still can’t change…

Ok ok…digress too much…keekek…anyway e show only worth 2 bucks (abt ½ a popcorn kernel)..n only if I rented it..no way I’ll watch it in e cinema..totally waste my time…abt 2hrs u knw…As 4 its wbesite, it's in Thai, but it's easy 2 navigate...jus place yr cursor over e word, n look out 4 e english language at e bottom of yr screen!! Easy!!...n it's beautifully designed s well...nice n cuty..hahah..chk it out!!

Alrite! There u hv it guys…my reviews…hope it wil b of some use or ref…till e nxt blockbuster!!

Muack!!
