Movie List

It's been a long time I didn't update my movie list.

While several movies were crossed on my list, I felt many other good ones (from my point of view) I had were missed on that non-updating movie list.

Therefore, I decided to list my watched movies here, no matter it is on the list or not. I won't discuss it in details, but only say I like it or not.

I spent lots of time on movies this weekend.

1. 投名狀 (The Warlords)
It is good, my version is the mainlad version; heard the TW/HK version is better and more complete.

趙二虎's personality addressing is the weakest link in the movie.

2. Surf's Up
Not good at all, even FanFan who loves to watch cartoon didn't want to watch this one and went away in the middle.

3. In the Land of Women
Three reasons I watched this movie:
1. Kristen Stewart
2. Kristen Stewart
3. Kristen Stewart

4. Superbad
A good one, funny but full of F words.

5. Thank You for Smoking
A very good one. I like this movie and the way it addresses the anti-smoking issue in real life.

6. Jeux d'enfants (Love Me If You Dare)
I love this French movie a lot. It might be a follower to the success of Amelie, but I really think it came with its own style in the movie.

It was the #1 blockbuster in France at 2003. Surprisingly many U.S. critists gave it very bad comments, but feedbacks from COMMON people in real world were good acturally. I love this movie and will recommend it to my friends anyway.

English Trailer


The movie is about two childhood friends Julien and Sophie who have a seriously troubled relationship because they keep daring each other to do more and more outrageous things, especially to get back at each other. The phrase "cap ou pas cap ?" came up a million times. "Cap, pas cap" is a game in France, played by kids. Kids dare each other saying "Cap, pas cap", and you answer cap, you must do it.

French Trailer - I think this one is better edited than the English one.
