The Dark Knight

It's good, though abit long ..

Hah hah Edison Chan appear for all of one second , blink and you'll miss him..
watch out for him When Lucius Fox (Morgan Freeman) goes to HK..

Like everyone says Heath Ledger did a great job as the Joker , though I think his joker is as good a villian as it get it's note quite the classic Joker I always had in mind.
His joker is abit too "sad" ,depressed and even abit too philosophical..

Red Cliff

Most early print/online reviews have been positive for this movie, some even glowing..
Methinks the reviewers aren't very versed in Chinese history /3 kingdom lore or care enough ..


Cos' if you VERY into the history or Novel , I meant REALLY into , You'll very likely vomit blood , which my friends and some in the online chinese history/3K online community did.
I'm no expert but I have more chinese history/3K lore in the arse than some singaporeans have in their head...Though not oblivious to the "creativity" of the production team, I can tahan if the changes made for a better movie..
Personally, I felt it could be better , the butchering of the story/characters and historical inaccuracies aside , the pacing of the movie is uneven, some fights/battles are over elaborate/stylized and the execuation of the tactics/strategies, which is suppose to brilliant is kinda lame.


Don't get me wrong, I actually like the movie , it's living history and a masterpiece compared to Andy Lau's 3K flick "Ressurection of the Dragon". And despite the attrocites commited to the source material by "ressurection of the Dragon". I kinda enjoyed it and there's no wayRed Cliff could possibly be worst..



Just finished this ..

Dun ask..

I aslo duuuno what it's suppose to be..
