Most critics disliked the movie, but they are just a minority among the masses who generally loved how they put together the movie with familiar-sounding yet lovable song tunes. Yes, the story line is extremely weak, but definitely because they intended to make the movie … continue

Les Miserables the Movie: How Bad Does It Get?
I first heard and saw the Les Miserables movie trailer in November 2012, and despite my love for the musical, I did not think highly of the movie version. And I was right. I only decided to watch the movie because I wanted to know … continue
Inception: The Movie Review
What caught my eye to catch this movie yesterday (the first day of public screening in Singapore) was ST Life’s 5-star review. Is it that good? Well, let’s just say that I was mentally prepared that this movie would be extremely mind-boggling, so I really … continue
The Sorcerer’s Apprentice: A Post Before I Catch the Movie
The first thing that came to my mind when I hear “The Sorcerer’s Apprentice” is the old cartoon where Mickey was the apprentice. Next thing is I wondered if Disney Pictures is going to remake that cartoon scene-by-scene into an action movie. I guess they … continue
Iron Man Mark 3 Battle Damage 12-inch collector’s figure
I recently added another item to my collection of toys and figures. When I buy a toy, an important criterion is that it must fully resemble the character on-screen. Most of the small Iron Man figures have terrible paint jobs and awful details that make the … continue
Movie Insight: A Single Man
On Wednesday night, I watched “A Single Man”, starring Colin Firth and Julianne Moore. Not many cinemas are screening the movie, and it’s rated R21 for homosexuality content. Tom Ford produces and directs this artistic film that was nominated for several film awards and won … continue

Mile High Movie Club
Watched 2 movies on the plane, to Hong Kong and from Hong Kong. The first movie was “The Time Traveler’s Wife”. Although it’s a rather far-fetched tale, it brings a fresh perspective about love and relationships that literally transcend time. What I find so surreal … continue
Blood Ties – The Movie 還魂
I would like to recommend a film here. It’s called 還魂, written and directed by Chai Yee Wei, his debut full-length feature film. This is the first film that is funded by Singapore Film Commission’s Feature Film Fund, co-produced by Oak3. It is not a … continue
District 9
If you have watched the District 9 trailer thinking that you know what the movie is about, you are wrong. The trailer doesn’t reveal anything about the plot, except the fact that the guy who got exposed to the “alien matter” seems to hint something. … continue
TAKEN The Movie
I was deciding what movie to watch over the weekend. Wolverine is not out until Wednesday, and there wasn’t any must-see movies in my list. Initially I decided to catch The International because I thought it must be a nice movie, not from the story … continue
Movie Marathon Month
I’ve watched more movies this month than the entire 2008 year (I think). My way of celebrating the holidays. Twilight. It’s more of a teenage fan movie. Nothing fantastic and bombastic, just a glamorous vampire love fantasy tale. Personally I felt that the screen adaptation … continue
The Dark Knight – finally
After almost 2 weeks of the islandwide theatrical release, I finally watched the Batman sequel, The Dark Knight, today. I’ve read so many blogs about how good Heath Ledger is. I felt that his performance is overrated, partly because he didn’t hog the screen time … continue
Neil Humphreys – The angmoh who was here
Father’s Day was just another day, which is perfectly fine. We had lunch with my family with guest appearance by Angie’s mum at Peach Garden at OCBC Centre. After a usually-delicious meal with a mouth-opening view, Angie and I went to catch the movie, Kungfu … continue
Indiana Jones
Today I caught Indiana Jones And the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull in the cinemas. I can’t even remember the last time I watched the franchise movies, but with George Lucas and Steven Spielberg and Harrison Ford, you just have to watch it, no matter … continue
What is our National Treasure?
When Nuffnang asked me “what is our national treasure”, the first thing that comes to my mind is: Love. As corny as it sounds, love makes everything and anything possible. With the power of love, we achieve. Nuff said. National Treasure 2: Book of Secrets … continue
More Than Meets The Eye
Before I start, I have to show you this funny video clip, Bollywood ‘Thriller’ with English phonetic subtitles! What do I mean? Just watch! It’s ingenious, they even have my name in it! After 2 months of planning, I finally watched TRANSFORMERS with good friends … continue
Shrek!
Shrek is probably one of the most successful animated motion picture series. Each of the movies are supported by stellar cast and none of them is replaced since the original movie. The formula works because Shrek incorporates many fairy-tale characters that are dear to us, … continue
