Storm Riders review : I know~ Alot of you might have watched the movie but yesterday I went to watch the anticipated movie with my GF in GSC 1 Utama. Surprisingly the queue was not very long and we dont have to wait for long before getting our tickets.
Well, the movie was graphic intense I would say. Too much of graphic in fact. Looking at Aoran Kwok and Ekin starring Fung and Wan reminds me of the old day where I would sit infront of the television and watch their action series over and over again. It just marveled me how great an impact this movies plays in our childhood days. Back then Mr Toh would be seating in class acting all cool with his fingers crossed over his mouth occasionally grabbing Kar Lim who back then who was like a midget and still does look like one now by the head as a sparring partner (obviously you could see the size contrast immediately). Kok Hwee would be looking at some magazines and buying their miniature swords while the teacher was teaching mathematics. That was back then~
Back to the topic.. the movie was not as I expected. The story line was lame and the characters didnt talk much throughout the whole 1 hour and 40 minutes sequel. Especially Aoran Kwok who I suspect open his mouth less then 10 times. The whole movie was crappy even the fighting scenes was a great let down. This happens when the Pang brothers decided to rely to heavily on CGI`s instead of focusing on the story and characters. I still remember a part where our HK girl band Twins (dont quite remember what is the girls name) which plays the role of Ekin`s lover. She was being hit and in matrix style you could see her face started to crumbled up and drops of blood would be flying out of her mouth and I was like WTF~ Whats the point of showing this pretty lady face all wrinkled in pain IN SLOW MOTION?!
Would I recommend this movie to anyone else? Well No... Disappointed big time .
Next movie Im going to watch~ The Avatar. Yet another heavy intense graphic. Lets hope it would be worth my 2 hours and 30 minutes in the cinema.

new life, working life
Sorry readers, have not been really seating down and concentrating on my blog for a really long time. My sincere apologies, been so busy hanging out with friends and when im not, im too lazy to type. Well, the typing feeling just came to me today so I hope I will constantly keep my blog up to date.
I was once told by some friends that the moment we graduate is the moment we are unemployed. Well, I had a fair share of unemployment when I was in the UK and when all thing fails, I retreated back to my wonderful home country - Malaysia. The first 2 weeks of my stay in Malaysia has been busy busy busy. Hanging out with friends, eating all the local cuisine that I missed so much. But at the same time I was sending out my CV`s to numerous companies and also at the same time I was attending for loads and loads of interview. I rejected a few because it was not the job I was looking for or the pay offered to me was what I deemed on the low side. Until one fine day, I was called for an interview by Gluco and Albert Wine and Spirits. Both of the interview I went for was really interesting but I have to admit that Gluco was one of the hardest and challenging interview I have encountered so far. The company was offering me a really good working experience and I think I would really love to work for the company if it is not for Albert Wine and Spirit (AWS) who offered me a better pay =P not to mention that it is just a stone throw away from my house which means NO transportation fees incurred. Well, both companies offered me a job and its quite obvious I chose AWS over Gluco solely because it is located just the next "taman" from my house.
I entered AWS as a Marketing Coodinator and my direct manager is a really nice chap which has spend over 10 years abroad in the US and recently came back to be with his family. Working for AWS is a real challenge for me because it requires you to consume alot of alcoholic drinks. If you have known me personally you would have been thinking what is Marvin doing in a alcoholic company?! He cant DRINK to save his life! Well, very true... On my very first day I was brought for wine tasting and was trained the art of tasting wine and I was feeling tipsy after a glass of 40% wine. It was embarrassing ~ My face went tomato red instantly ..
As I enter the 2nd week of working life, all seem well. I cant complaint much on this job but at times it can get really boring and I would be surfing the internet aimlessly. Recently I was handed a project, and Im really looking forward to complete the project in the best possible manner I could. Hopefully i`ll get compliments for that. haha.
Well, thats all for now folks. I`ll be heading off for a YUM CHA session with my mates pretty soon. I`ll keep you guys updated ok? Hopefully ~~
