A plot to assasinate the President of the USA. Nuff' said
I’ve got to say that this is another movie that TRIES to be groundbreaking. Whether it proved to be or not, that’s totally entitled to the viewer’s personal opinion. Majority of the first half of the movie is told in a certain time frame, from 12 noon to 12 something, from 8 different perspectives. Throughout that 1st half, you’d probably be groaning nearing the end of it because of looking at recurring incidents over and over again. I know the audience that I was with wasn’t all that pleased when they saw the clock on the screen rewind itself.
The purpose of the rewinding of time to show different perspectives is to show the viewers different puzzle pieces of the tragedy that had unfolded in Salamanca, Spain, where the movie takes place. Eventually we’ll find out the roles these characters play in due time and the amount of lead they get to pump or get pumped with later on.
Characters were quite stereotypical but not to the point we’d want to throw our caramel popcorn at. The usual car chases, deceit, lies and guns are used, nothing special there. Seriously, I still can’t believe Dennis Quaid still has enough in him to do such high octane movies. Should’ve left the action to Matthew Fox, man. Yeah, Doc Shepard’s in this one. He still doesn’t get the top spot in the movie, even if he did get stabbed in Smokin’ Aces.
That was a good movie, Smokin’ Aces. Another movie showing the serious action hero in funnyman Ryan Reynolds. Anyways, this movie is worth a watch. The ending might seem a bit zha dou, but the storyline is solid.
Rating from ‘Ol Spiky: 3.75/5
Catch it if you got dough and have nothing better to do.
Starting Off On The Right Foot
Uni started yesterday and I must say that it’s meeting up to my expectations: Terrible. With a capital T at that. Somehow that it bypassed my head that practical classes and tutes don’t start until the 2nd week. So I went early for class and got disappointed for wasting my time in uni of all places.
Luckily I and Kang Wei bumped into Veri and Xiao Xuan at the orange coffeeshop after we wandered and scoured the foyer and cafeteria for familiar faces to dine with. Had a nice chat and all that and went to attend our fist ITP class. Our lecturer seems to be a nice guy. Possibly middle-aged, definitely balding and most likely that his marker pen leans a bit to the left, if you know what I’m saying. We were in grief when most of the class seemed devoid of any eye candy but the Indonesian Goddess (allow me this exaggeration as there were nothing but hags in the room) walked in and sat down in the front desk.
Praises to God were given like Armageddon was averted by divine intervention. The class was cut short since Mr. Jason Cheah had only a few things to go through and events to tell us straightaway.
Grand start, I suppose, by ignoring countless flaws in the day.
Alrighty then. Probably gonna catch Step Up 2 today after class. Peace out y’all.
