Went to watch the controversial Ang Lee flick last Friday. I wasn't very interested to watch if even after reading the raving reviews. Even more so after reading the synopsis. But I went anyway.
And boy was I pleasantly surprised! I'm extremely impressed with Tang Wei's protrayal of the role! Didn't find her very pretty, so didn't go with very high expectations but she totally exceeded whatever expectations I had. I think she even stole the show from Tony Leung! She was immersed in the role. Not bad at all for someone still wet behind the ears.
Right. Let's talk about the explicit sex scenes. Though they are necessary to establish the plot, showing Tony's Leung's trust in his mistress and how there was a shift in power, they're still a bit too much for me to take. Call me an old fud. I don't care. Too much sex in a single movie.
Those who are legal can go catch it. :) It's a great movie set in the occupied China. Girls, Lee Hom looks great, as usual. Even when he's about to die. Haha!
Saw IV
Caught this yesterday with 2 of my female colleagues. Wasn't too grossed out because 1) it's expected, and 2) I like gory movies.
Which sick bastard will do this to people and why??
So Jigsaw's an engineering genius. So he feels like he can help bring salvation to those who did him wrong.
But he's sick man! Truly sick in the head!
My favourite scene was the autopsy. Forensics. I likey.
Alright. Shan't spoil it for those of you who want to catch it. 4 out of 5 stars. For the gore. And the brilliance of everything he did.
Caution: You're not going to enjoy your popcorn very much, so don't waste money.
