My Last 5 Movie Escapades

by DeM0NiCk on June 16, 2009, under Tidbits

Of late, I’ve been going for movies quite often. It’s because some movies I really want to watch, while the others was just an excuse to go out to kill time and be entertained. Well, these are the last 5 movies I’ve watch in chronological order..

		Angels & Demons Watched this movie with Chui Mae and Mike on a week night a few weeks back. I thought this movie is brilliant, and although I didn’t read the book, my friends who did also thought it was better than “The Da Vincci Code”. Well then again, I haven’t come across a movie based on a book which is considered great or perfect for that matter. Would I recommend it? Hell yes! I would watch it again too!


		Monsters Vs. Aliens It was a Saturday night, and I just wanted to get out of the house somehow. I called Zara and we decided to catch this animated movie just to have some laughs and not to look too sad on a Saturday night. Well for one thing, I’m not really a huge fan of watching animated movies on the big screen because I think it’s a waste of time and money (most animated movies are only 1.5 hrs long). But when you really got nothing to do..why not right? (beggars can’t be choosers). So anyway, Dreamworks did a pretty good job in the animation for this movie. Even though the storyline is kinda lame, but it was damn hilarious! But I don’t think a 5 year old can understand some of the jokes in the movie. Lots of dry no-brainer humor. Really good for laughs. Would I recommend it? If you want to kill time or feeling depress, this is the movie to go watch.

		Night At The Museum 2 Sylvia was back from her Europe trip, so I thought we met up for dinner and go catch a movie. It was a Sunday night, therefore there were a lot of movie goers that night too. We had no choice but to catch the midnight movie then. Since Sylvia had the day off the next day, we figured why not…boy how I regretted. Ben Stiller being himself in comedy roles, you can already imagine how it’s going to turn out. I don’t know…but somehow this movie is so bad, it kinda scarred me a little. Yes it’s THAT bad! To add insult to injury…it’s only about 1hr 40 mins! So NOT worth it! Would I recommend it? If there is an asteroid that is going to hit earth to end all of mankind, and for some reason they force you to watch all of Ben Stiller’s movies, I would still give this a miss!

		17 Again Chick flick alert! Last Friday night, I met up with Jacqueline and Samantha to watch Zac Efron. Yes…I went to watch a chick flick with 2 chicks…so you can imagine what happened during the scene where Zac came out from his Audi R8, with cool shades, leather jacket and tight jeans walking in slow-mo to the school… Girls: Gasp! I can’t breathe! He is so cuteee!!” Me: “Shhh! And please stop drooling on my hands!” While I know full well that it’s a chick flick, I got to admit…I’M A SUCKER FOR CHICK FLICKS TOO! (NOT Zac Efron btw! >.<). Would I recommend it? I always like watching chick flicks with the chicks…because the chicks would like it and would like me for taking them to watch it! So win-win situation :P

		Hannah Montana The Movie Now now, before you gasp and go WTF?!! This really isn’t my idea. Michelle wanted to watch this movie and I had no other choice because I’ve watched everything else prior to our “date”. I proposed Terminator Salvation but she didn’t want to..so..Miley Cyrus it is then…GAH! Just so you know, it’s a Disney production, meaning lots of singing and dancing. Haven’t seen an episode of HM prior to this so I have really NO IDEA that Hannah is Miley and vice versa in the movie. I always thought it was Miley that plays Hannah in the movie..err..nvm. I even took extra precaution and Twittered that if there are no updates from me soon, please call the cops! Just in case I die or faint. But actually, it isn’t as bad as I thought it would be and I think some of the songs (not all) were pretty decent and catchy. But it’s also a chick flick nevertheless…but as Miley says you get the “Best Of Both Worlds”. hehe….remember..win-win! Would I recommend it? Hmm…HM?…seriously?…Hmmmmm
