Maybe life is too short;
For us to watch all the movies in the world.
I've decided to do away with the ranking as it's pretty cumbersome during updating. I'm gonna just put up reviews of movies according to the date I watched them, starting from the latest!
Seabiscuit (2003)
Gary Ross
A rags-to-riches story, except that this is a true story, and a very inspiring one. Probably one of the best adaptation from book to film genre I've ever seen. It captures the rhythm and tempo of the movie so acutely with its music and transition between the "chasing" scenes and "close-up" scenes. Every second of the movie conveys so much, and to pack this much into a 104 mins film is remarkable. And kudos to the lead actors Tobey Maguire (Spiderman), Jeff Bridges and Chris Cooper. They've handled each of their characters so well, bringing out their personalities and emotions.
Public Enemies (2009)
Michael Mann
Witty lines, charming lead actors, intense build up to the ending. However, there were some parts of the movie which could have been extended slightly longer and the timing was slightly off i felt. And at times, the shakiness of the camera seemed unnecessary. The ending probably saved the movie.
Funny Games (2008)
Michael Haneke
This has to be it! The freakiest psychopathic movie I have ever watched in my entire life! Mind games, psychoanalysis, how we humans perceive and believe things, act and respond, all covered in this awesome movie.
Sell Out! (2009)
Yeo Joon Han
Kudos to the Malaysian film director who made a breakthrough in the Venice film festival! He also wrote the songs for the movie and some other stuffs which is really incredible. The story revolves around the topic of "Dreams" and "Reality"... How "dreams" are being condemned by "reality" and also questions the practicality of "dreams" without a balance of pragmatism. At times, I find the movie slightly draggy but it doesn't really take away that spark off the movie. Support local movies!
Butterfly Effect (2004)
Eric Bress
J. Mackye Gruber
Gripping storyline, in fact, it's one of those very complex plots but very well taken care of. Definitely worth a watch! And I like the meaning behind this whole movie too... the "what if"s and the if we really can change what has already happened...
Milk (2008)
Gus Van Sant
Let me get this STRAIGHT! (pun intended) I'm not gay, but i really loved the gus van sant's techniques... wathc his other movies like "paranoid park" and "elephant" and u will understand why... and this movie should hav won the oscar for best film instead... lol inspirational documentation of how human beings fight for their rights!
Requiem For A Dream (2000)
Darren Aronofsky
Firstly, the soundtrack - AWESOME! one of the things that is going to be stuck on ur mind after watching... Secondly, the quick-cut scenes of the drug-taking... simply brilliant! and how the different stories all culminate to a climax in the end... absolutely PERFECT.
Lost In Translation (2003)
Sofia Coppola
For all those who have felt the sensation of being sucky or empty or lonely or basically lost on ur own in a foreign land... OR NOT.... worth a watch!
Ladder 49 (2004)
Jay Russell
I cried watching this one. The tempo of the movie moved the audience and resonates well. =)
The Diving Bell annd The Butterfly (2007)
Julian Schnabel
Beautiful cinematography. Filmed from the point of view of the protagonist who happened to be paralyzed, left with only the left eye which works. I actually watched it in the cinema as a homework!
Cashback (2006)
Sean Ellis
Probably the thought of stopping time has occurred to us at some point of time in our lives. The vivid scenes when the protagonist used his imaginations to transcend the passing of time and the witty transitions of scenes will definitely captivate the viewers' minds.
The Lives of Others (2006)
Florian Henckel von Donnersmarck
Voyeurism at its best! The virtually non existent privacy state in East Germany then... and watch how the story of spying on the lives of others unfold...
The Pursuit of Happyness (2006)
Gabriele Muccino
Touching movie! and of coz the will smith factor! I dunno what to say, watch it!
Match Point (2005)
Woody Allen
"I rather be lucky than good". A movie which points out the sad(?) fact that luck plays a role, big one, in determining our lives. A 9/10 for the plot.

There are things that I've to say;
Because I have opinions.
i kinda have this strange feeling that i don't want to start posting anything until i get my new website ready. which is taking forever because i hav to learn to create one. and then purchase the domain name. and then yada yada yada.
so yea.
and everybody was so caught up
in the illusion of the sense of time
yet we never wonder what we were after
for what we could only see
and only see
the bait
life's like so packed with everything and everything. perhaps after next week. i get the chance to revamp everything and showcase a new site and new works! im not abandoning this place! lol. js very passive.
Went back to KL for a few days after two months, only to realise how much have changed. Firstly, there are new bus lines running around in my housing area but I have yet to find out more. Maybe in december (in which i would have become an uncle liao.. muahaha!) anyway, there's this thing I'm not sure if i should be happy or sad about, it's that rapidkl buses have finally changed its system (thanks to my post on their loopholes perhaps?)Now, it's somehwat like singapore, with the zonal bus fares system. In which people take tons of time trying to ask for the fare price (no ezlink on buses) and then trying to find the right amount... like below..


As I ventured further that day, I got to Mid Valley, with some new shops here and there, I went to Art Friend... and I swear to god I didn't photoshop this... There it was... NON-HALAL brushes. nice.
it's holiday now.. and im preparing to make some major changes to the site. very soon. i hope. it's gona be very exciting!
sometimes i wonder why people are so reluctant to share and show their artworks.
i mean, you've drawn it, spent hours doodling and drawing, you can't possibly be just wanting to keep it all to yourself right?
wait, that's not quite right.
when are we ever ready to share our works?
why was i so confident to share my math answers? because i know it's right. because it tallied with the answers at the back of the book.
because i am 99% certain of acceptance.
what abt art?
it probably comes with confidence.
and please people....
the heart is a fragile thing...
especially the kids.
dun discourage them, dun criticise them...
or you would have just shattered an artist in the making.
give them the encouragement they need.
and we are no different.
Because I have opinions.
