i'm done with my e27 job, i went to shanghai and seen the expo, breathed the air in china, and got my feet back to singapore, and suffered gastric flu.
next week im heading to hongkong, with ade, no less! :D
anyhow, i watched Detective Dee with G today. I believe this is the third time i am in a theatre for a mandarin movie in my entire life. The first was this local film by Jack Neo, I think i walked out after half an hour. Not that i have anything against JNeo, I just didn't like the show. The second was also with G, which was just a few days back. Legend of the Fist: Return of Chen Zhen.
Oh wait, did Sandcastle count as a mandarin film? Then maybe this is the fourth.
Anyhow, I am just gonna give my 5 cents about these films, especially for friends who may want to catch them.
Legend of the Fist: Return of Chen Zhen
This is the first Donnie Yen film I ever caught. I give it a 3 (out of 5 cents)
Action flicks are hardly ever my type of genre because I don't like violence but I'm scoring it higher because I thought that the action sequence was really awesome as per donnie-yen style. The storyline got a tiny bit ridiculous because ChenZhen suddenly donned this superhero suit, and I was suddenly reminded of those action hero flicks which kinda turned me off a little. But then the show concentrated on his budding romance with Shu Qi and his mission at hand.
I honestly caught the movie because Shu Qi is the lead actress and I always thought she's so damn sexy-pouty-cute and i absolutely adore her. But after watching this film I have a new eyecandy. DONNIE YEN: HAS A DAMN HOT BOD and he fights so damn well. hahahaha.
K, so I'm really scoring this film higher than it should be cos Shu Qi's wardrobe was sooo damn splendid and she looked like a dream in every scene, while Donnie Yen has a bod worth watching on big screen (even only for a 10 second fight scene), and the fight scenes were really good..
Detective Dee
I give this a 2cents.
Suave Andy Lau and Tony Leung: check.
Carina Lau looking so damn freakin goood even with strange dots for eyebrows: check.
this damn hot actress: check
Fight scenes. mediocre and kinda draggy
Storyline: Mainly about spontaneous human combustion. Not new, kinda boring.
okay i tired alr. bb.
