Throw Down....unbelievable bad too!!

I couldn't believe how many bad films came out in the same year in HK. Here's another film you shouldn't watch and probably shouldn't buy it either. Here's another film with a decent cast (Aaron Kwok and Louis Koo, with upcoming star Cherrie Ying). The Story is about some Judo guys wanting to take on one another. There are so many missing holes in this movie, so many crappy editing and just a bad story line. It almost feels like they ran out of money and just decided to put together what they had. Only decent thing is the background music. (No I'm not talking about that awful song the lamer guy sings in the film either...)

Twins Effect 2 - HK film - Unbelievable bad...

Don't watch it. I was going to browse for some pictures to add to this post, but then I decided it wasn't even worth my time. I'm taking the time to comment on this film so that everyone out there doesn't suffer the same two hours of torture of this really bad film. First of all, Twins effect 2 is suppose to be the sequel to Twins effect 1 (makes sense doesn't it?). Well the story is completely different, the characters are different, I think the only thing that is similar in anyway is the cast of actors. By the way, the twins effect is really the effect of the twins (a girl duo of Gillian chung and Charlene choi, yeah they're not even twins...lame huh)
This film had a major all star cast and did not even come close to any of its hype. As cute as the twins are, they cannot sing or act....the film also stars jaycee chan (Jackie chan's kid), and many guest appearances of other actors (Jacky Chan, Donnie Yuen, Tony Leung ka fai, edison chen, etc). So I've already mention that the acting is bad, I forgot to mention that the setting is crappy, the outfits are so-so, special effects are terrible. Even the camera view is crappy. There's one scene where the twins fight each other on a bridge, and the camera decides to go around them in circles...twice...for no reason, nothing special beneath them, nothing special above them....so I guess that was more of a time killer...oh on a last note the martial arts in the film is totally lame, only one scene was worth watching at all, and that was the fight between Jackie and Donnie (which was a good 7-10 minutes)....

I can't believe how any of those people could even consider the film good....

A Tale of Two Sisters

Since it's October, I figure I'd start with a horror/thriller film. I don't have much time right now, so I'll just post two pictures....Finally got a chance to add to this post. Well I have to say that this thriller/horror film is one of the best ones I've seen. It's unbelievably beautiful. Sounds wierd huh? I've watched this film several times (partly because there were some things that I didn't catch, partly because I enjoy the film). The actresses were so great in the film. All three were amazing...and I have to say the music works so well with the rest of the film. (I ended up ordering the OST...from Yesasia.com). I just realized I've talked nothing about the film itself -- well keeping it short, It's a tale of two sisters, who finally goes home and meets their step mother...

Start of another blog...

Just to kick off things, this idea is meant for those of us who have so much free time that we'll do reviews on asian media --- the idea came up from 3 of us (Krystal, Robert, me). Robert doesn't know Krystal, nor does Krystal know Robert...but hey that'll make it interesting to see all points of views (I'm sure we'll all meet someday)...maybe I should've called this the Krystal.vs.Robert.vs.Luc Blog. oh well, anyway I hope we get a lot of people's opinions up on this one - Reviews of their favorite/hated films/singers/songs/models/pictures....
