Movies time..

I have actually watched Nick & Norah's Infinite Playlist last month.. another late update.. haha.. too busy lah..

this movie has the same style as Juno.. same lead actor.. haha.. same kind of indie movie about teenagers.. and its soundtrack plays a great part in flow of the movie.. becos this movie is about music.. Nick and Norah's favourite songs and indie bands.. this is also the part that I like about this movie.. I am a fan of indie music and rock bands!

anyway.. not to get carried away.. haha.. the actors and actresses are natural in the acting that you find it fake at all.. it touched on the issue of gays.. whom I always believe that we should not view them differently.. what's wrong with being gay? It also talks about college relationships and the boyfriend or girlfriend for benefits.. sometimes you feel so lonely that when someone treated you well and be there for you, even if it is for benefits, you will don't really care about it and accept this kind of relationship.. till you met someone that truely likes you as you are and not what riches you have then you will find out how silly you are in holding on to a relationship that is so empty..

I also watched another movie called 12 lotus.. everyone should know this local production by Royston Tan.. when it was released, all my friends say it is not nice at all.. boring compared to the same time released Money Not Enough 2.. I haven't watched Money Not Enough yet.. but I have my own take on 12 lotus..

This movie is similar to 881.. becos it also talks about the live on getai.. but this time, instead of talking the life a pair of sisters, 12 lotus is about a getai singer who has a hard and bitter life.. 12 phases of her bitter life was presented.. and it also ended sadly.. it is a sad story which is punctuated with some happy singing.. due to her silliness and mental illness, funny things happened.. guanyin needs to cut hair?? haha.. the boring parts maybe are the singing of hokkien songs.. so drama like in 881.. but I think that is royston's style bah..

anyway.. this movie is also about love for benefits.. which is not true love.. all the men in Lian Hua's life always have motives to get near her.. for her body, for her money.. except for astroboy.. who really cared for her but will inevitably have to leave her after he has grown up.. in the end.. she was killed becos of the love that she has held on..

The kid actor and actress are the most outstanding.. they sang hokkien songs so well and acted so naturally.. even better than some of the adult actors.. haha..
