My Super Ex-Girlfriend - movie review

My Super Ex-Girlfriend - starring Luke Wilson & Uma Thurman, about a man trying to befriend a lady in an underground train. Unknown to him, the lady was the city's supergirl....appearing from nowhere saving the day.

They got along fine and a close relationship developed and the supergirl has to share with him about her secret about being the supergirl. As time goes by, the man found it hard to live with her and decided to break off. Supergirl couldn't live with that and started to follow him and disrupted his personal life. A colleague of his caught his attention later on. His new girl was also exposed to the same meteorite rock one night and caught the super strength too. A fight erupted between 2 supergirls now for this guy. Hilarious movie and quite entertaining.

Few more movies to go........maybe 5

Nacho Libre & Click - movie review

Nacho Libre – starring Jack Black (of School of Rock too) & Hector Jimenez. Nacho is a man who grew up and worked as a cook in a Mexican monastery. After seeing the earning potentials of a wrestler seen in town, he tried to groom himself and a partner of his to make it big in the local wrestling arena. As times goes by, he was able to earn some money through tickets sold in fights involving him as the crowds loved them. Good food were bought by these money for the orphanage in the monastery. Nice, hilarious movie.....listen to those punch lines which will make you drop from your seat.

Click – starring Adam Sandler, Kate Beckinsale (one of the most beautiful ladies in the world), Christopher Walken & David Hasselhoff (yeah, the guy from the Knight Rider TV series). Adam, having the ambition of becoming a partner in his architect firm, drove him to neglect his family and parents. Eventually, he bumped into a gadget, a universal remote control, which could ultimately change anything/event in his life (fast forward, next chapter, mute) just like a normal TV remote control. But soon he regretted the use of it as it works intelligently according to usual clicks. Life went past him in few moments with him missing his whole life (due to too many fast forward)......... one of the better movies watched recently......

Snakes On A Plane - movie review

Snakes On A Plane – starring Samuel L. Jackson, Nathan Phillips, Rachel Blanchard, Julianna Margulies & Flex Alexander. An eyewitness of a murder scene was to be brought from Hawaii to Los Angeles to stand in court. To stop the witness, the suspects somehow were able to transport boxes of different kind of poisonous snakes onboard. The boxes self-detonated via a small explosive device and the snakes (too many to count) wriggled their ways throughout the plane and started attacking everyone onboard………too exciting!!

World Trade Center - movie review

Another movie done during the nice Friday afternoon.
World Trade Center (9/11) – starring Nicolas Cage, Michael Pena, Maggie Gyllenhaal, Maria Bello, Stephen Dorff & directed by Oliver Stone. A re-collection on the actual 9/11 tragedy where the movie zooms in to the lives of a group of policemen. A true story where a group of Port Authority policemen was amongst the earliest to be at the rescue scene. They despatched in a rescue team into the WTC and just before they could conduct their rescue, the 2 towers collapsed on them. Following parts of the show will see the anxieties, sadness (including me) and relieved of the family members that waited, heard or seen their loved ones being saved from the rubbles……thousands of innocent lives lost in a tragedy.

The so-called cause fought by the so-called terrorists (which is giving a bad reputation to muslims around the world) unacceptable to me. An archive of the September 11 tragedy is available here.

Man Utd to Malaysia - Summer 2007

Yahoooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!

My favourite team of last 24 years, Man Utd, will be making their way to Malaysia next year as announced in a press conference held yesterday. Summer 2007 means during the months of June/July/August. Hopefully I'll be in Kuala Lumpur then or will ensure that I'll be there to witness their matches. Their last trip to Malaysia in 2001 was excellent. A crowd of 67,000 watched them played the Malaysian national team (Man Utd won of course, by 6-0) in Kuala Lumpur. Even their training session was attended by about 20,000.

This Man Utd's travel in 2007 was made available via a club sponsor contract signed between Man Utd and Malaysia Tourism Minitry which is also in conjunction with Visit Malaysia Year 2007 and Malaysia's 50th Independence Anniversary.
David Gill was joined at the press conference by Sir Alex Ferguson, AirAsia chief executive Tony Fernandes and Malaysia's Minister of Tourism, Tengku Adnan Tengku Mansor. Paul Scholes and Wayne Rooney also attended a photo-call.
