cinema on9


Angels & Demons will put u on u'r edge of u'r seat! can't wait to read the literature.


Frost/Nixon showed good acting chops and a thriller drama surely enjoyable.


Make It Happen is like a poor make over of Step and any other teenager dance movie. the story lacks depth and strength.


Dragonball is mediocre. consider watching this only if u are hardcore fan or just plain doesn't know what to do with u'r free time...

Queens of Langkasuka


since Suriyothai, Thai movie makers seemed to launched a craze in making epic movies with this as a latest edition of unsuccessful follow up. is ananda heading to a flop streak now?

a movie on langkasuka's queen with minor details on the trial tribulation of them. character registry is not that strong.

Star Trek : The Journey Resumes

seldom a movie meets its expectations. I went to watch the movie with high hopes, and the movie really did deliver. brilliantly done, rewriting the whole history of the movie and possibly launching a successive franchise ahead. go watch this!

having said that, I still share a little let down so as this writer.

a JOYFULL read an AWFUL watch


though I still can't grasp the overwhelming accolades the movie received, the book was actually a joy to read. a page turner and full of life. seeing the movie, it seems that the book was given no justice and making award given for its screenplay writing is a total nonsense!

a movie where I enjoyed both onscreen and on page is Ayat2 Cinta. having said that, the book is still far fetched from the movie.

no wonder most writers are reluctant to give up their treasured piece to be made as a movie. the 'creative license' was almost always overused. and now I know why most bookworms go out of 'book-turned-movie devasted.

p/s: am looking forward to read angels and demons and laskar pelangi. hoped that angels and demon is not badly treated as the da vinci code was.

fast paced, action packed. pity gambit's character was too brief!
