Dukes of Hazzard – General Lee is Back!

For anyone that wasn’t aware, Dukes of Hazzard[/url] is a well known TV series from around 1979, around my parents generation. I grew up seeing the re-runs though (Along with Starksy and Hutch and the series from my generation like the A-team!).. Who didn’t have a little orange General Lee when they were growing up […]

Sin City – Black and White Violence!

This is a funky film, sex, highly stylized violence from Frank Miller stories. It’s already reached the . Almost a work of art rather than a film, it’s a pleasure to watch, even though it doesn’t really have any plot so to speak, it’s just a story about a bunch of good/bad/beautiful/ugly people in a […]

Some thought he might bring out the power, unleash a new classic like Iron Monkey or New Dragon Gate Inn or Butterfly Lovers. But well he didn’t […]

Tae Guk Gi: The Brotherhood of War

This is a truly great movie, I’ve heard a lot about it and have been meaning to watch it for some time. I bought the DVD in Brunei, but honestly the quality there sucks, perhaps it’s why they are cheaper than in Malaysia.. It stalled at chapter 9, so I went out to SS2 and […]

Joss Stone is the pwn!

Just got addicted to this girl.. I remember when her music first hit the UK before I left in November 2003. Her song was played SO often on the radio but it was just cool as hell. I think they were playing Fell in Love with a Boy back then. She was so young but […]

There was another War of the Worlds made in 1953[/url], which although not totally faithful to the book […]

Deception Point – Dan Brown

Dan Brown[/url] seems to have mastered the whole suspense/thriller for the masses thing, he writes gripping books with good fast paced stories, nice plot twists and excellent character development. I’ve also read DaVinci Code (who hasn’t?) and Digital Fortress, I’m just left Angels and Demons. Catching the LRT does have it’s advantages, time to read […]

I-Robot – OMG THEY ARE TAKING OVER

I’ve been meaning to watch this movie for a long time, I missed the cinema release as I was away in some mud-hut somewhere, so I picked up the DVD which I just managed to watch last night. The movie is kind of based of Isaac Asimov’s 3 laws of robotics: 1. A robot may […]

Mr and Mrs Smith – SEXY!

Mr and Mrs Smith[/url] is a sexy, stupid, popcorn fluff movie, and it was good fun. It was exactly what it was supposed to be, it wasn’t pretentious, it wasn’t ‘clever’ it wasn’t deep or thought provoking, it was funny, action packed and there was good chemistry (almost electric) between the super good looking couple […]
