Yesterday, I went to JJ Bukit Tinggi with lovely F and XY.., :) We went to watch movie - I explain in details later..., my planned to go for book haunting was totally ruined.., because by the time we were out from the movie theater, we were too tired.., especially me since I slept at 5am.., the night before...
Owh.., regarding the movie, we watched 'I am number four', and yeah.., I'm also thinking the same thing that you are thinking now, what's up with the title. hehehe :) well, by the way.., the movie was ok, Alex Pettyfer (John Smith) was terrific in it, but the love story between him and Dianne Argon (Sarah) was lacking. In terms of the chemistry and how it was being put in the story. I read the review of the book (the movie was adapted from the book with the same title) and it seems that many readers find the love story as awesome and almost can be at the same par with Edward- Bella (Twilight Saga) and Sam-Grace (Shiver) couple. Owh, really? But.., somehow it is not being convey accordingly in the movie, and the combination of the elements of sci-fi and the love story make it a bit weird and somehow the love story become tasteless, its just not there, not good enough maybe..??? or probably its because I'm not a big fan of sci-fi story. Ohh well..., I just don't know whats wrong, but somehow, somewhere, something is wrong.
Nonetheless, there are some quotes that I found adorable from the movies... :)
John: [Reaching for book] What's this?
Sarah: Umm... That is kind of private, actually.
John: It's amazing!
Sarah: Ok, that's enough.
John: Seems like you want to run away.
Sarah: Just be happy when I can get out of here.
John: don't know - been to a lot of places...
Sarah: You don't have to give me that "there's no place like home" speech, I've heard it.
John: No - You can go wherever you want. See whatever you want to but, um... a place is only as good as the people you know in it.
"A place is only as good as the people you know in it" :)
I can't wait to watch Red Riding Hood and Beastly* this march..., I watched the trailer.., seems promising...
*Beastly is also adapted from a book with similar title by Alex Flinn. I'm so excited by this one, I wonder how Flinn retell the story of Beauty and the Beast and modernize it in Beastly, so I made my mind to read the book first before watching the movie..., can't wait to go to MPH and get my copy of the book.
