Feel like Jumping on CJ7
Well when all hope seem lost for the recent movies, I expected CJ7 to perk me up. After-all, with hits like Shaolin Soccer and KungFu Hustle, how wrong can CJ7 go. I was wrong. Yep, I know, Stephen himself said that this will be a different movie from what he has done. But the story-line is not that fantastic, neither is Sweeney Todd's storyline. The cinematic is great and the people can act well. However, similar to Ah-long Pte Ltd, the show failed to produce anyone memorable other than the leads. At least from KungFu Hustle, I believe most audience will clearly remember the Rental Lady.

Ah-Long Pte Ltd
Did not reach expectation. If only this movie can be so easily summed up with these 4 words. The disappointment reaches beyond this 4 words. As much as I would like to enjoy the show as it is like "鬼啊！鬼啊！” or even like "Pleasure Factory", I cannot forgive my cinematic self if I should say I enjoyed it. True, this show was not as bad as the two I have mentioned, each given 0.3/5 and -2/5 movie reviews, but there is a tinge of pity. Afterall, I have waited a year for Jack's work. I really enjoyed "我们在政府部门的日子". To see the level of entertainment plunged to like that. Aiyo. SBJL leh. And the censors really did their part. OVERLY. There were so many censored parts that I believe accumulated to another movie by itself
Cinematic-wise was disappointing. The production seemed amateurish. I am not professing that I am an expert. In fact, a greenhorn I am. But just look at "我们在政府部门的日子" and this. Tell me the difference. Many it is the fact that this production involved too many foreign elements that somehow, diluted the true value of it.
As Jack said, he is sincere about bringing new stuff to the masses. So..... do I fault him?
Probably, a little.
Cinematics: 2 out of 5
Acting (excluding Lee Guo Huang's acting): 2 out of 5
Lee Guo Huang's acting: 3 out 5
Overall: 2 Loser Ah-longs out of 5
~~~I have much to say about this show. Stay tune for an update. I am getting ready to leave my house, hence the short introduction. ~~~

Sweeny Todd dancing to the tune of KUNGFU Dunk
Sweeney Todd should be the first movie for me in the year 2008. It is the latest offering by Tim Burton and I must say, I really enjoyed it. Johnny Depp has brought Sweeney Todd alive and together with Tim Burton's cinematic and directorship, this musical is eerily alive. The use of gray color mostly throughout the show brought a sense of misery and a surreal effect of gloom and dread.
