A disgrace to criminals everywhere!
For the past 3 days I'd watched 3 movies each. lol (Now people starts to wonder how free am I~ xD)
Firstly, is the Ghost Rider. Hmm, it's either the show was too utterly boring or I was too overly tired, I found it rather boring. Perhaps it's because the introduction and lead-in was too draggy, which made me doze off after about half of its run-time. But I find that the storyline was abit of a déjà vu from other movies. I could be wrong but it's a so-so flick for me. 6/10.
The 2nd movie was Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels. One of a rare movie that I would watch. It comes all the way from the UK. It's about 4 lads getting into a illegal card game after they had illegally 'earned' their first ₤25,000 and eventually was in a ₤50,000 debt without knowing they were cheated. They had to clear their debt in a week, so they tried to rob their next door neighbour (thieves). In the end, everythings go haywire. Quite a clever comedy, but their humour is more on their cultural basis, quite difficult to grasp. 7.5/10.
Lastly, I watched 300 today with hk, zy, les and quek at GVMax. Come
to think of it, I really can't find any different grand cathay from this one. That aside, this war movie was between the Spartans and Persians. With just 300 spartans soldiers, its King, Leonidas, lead them to fight for their land and glory against Xerxes' 1 mil. strong army (with some weird creatures/monsters). The ending was abit unfinished as I felt that they should at least just show us that it'll all end up with a victory and a happy ending or vice versa. =x However, the visual graphics was quite pleasing to the eyes. The projectiles of the blood to astronomical numbers of armies to historical landscapes. 8.5/10.
