Yesterday, I finally found the time to watch "Love Matters" on Thursday, at Bugis Junction that is. Henry Thia and Yann Yann share good chemistry, hilarious to the max. Yet some of the topics covering underage sex and the publicising of sex videos on Youtube may seem a tad too sensitive and disturbing (hence the NC-16 rating). The part where Benny was stripped and about to be castrated by Lai Ming and Rosalind Pho was bone-chilling yet hilarious. One scene you cannot miss out is the one where an Indian parking attendant speaks in fluent Chinese (!!!). Rating: 7.5 out of 10.
Earlier today, I went to watch "Punisher War Zone". It was sort of a last minute decision, esp since I was already at EW Suntec deciding on what to watch. It was better than the 2004 film starring Thomas Jane... unlike the first one which was rated NC-16, this Marvel-comic based film is rated M-18, and stayes true to the origins of the Punisher comic. The new guy named Ray Stevenson who plays Frank Castle kicks major mafia butt. and he shows no mercy in breaking necks and blasting away his victims' faces!! Plot is a bit thin in regards to Jigsaw's rampage and FBI agent Donatelli's widow and daughter trying to survive, but the film is still violent and action-paced at best. Not as good as Iron Man or Hulk, but it's not a major disappointment. Not recommendable to fans with weak hearts!! Rating: 6.5 out of 10.
Next possible movie to watch... Inkheart. :-)
