Movie Review: Sex and the City
I have been SATC-ed a few hours ago. Although I haven caught any episodes of SATC, I love this show. It was so visually appealing and I am not referring to the 4 ladies in the show. But the clothes they wear, the bags they have, the Manolo Blahnik heels they wore is enough for me to drool. :) Love it. It's such a girls' show and therefore, best to watch with your gfs. Many funny scenes, extremely funny analogies.
Nope. I wont want to be a spoiler but there's some lessons i have taken home with me.
1. A walk-in wardrobe (like Carrie's new home) serves much purpose than a diamond ring. Something which I really really want in my future home - a walk-in wardrobe fills with many clothes for all occasion, shoes of all sorts.
2. Your gfs are always there for u. And be there for them too.
:) Enjoy the show!

Movie Review: Iron Man
I was not a big fan of Iron man. In fact, no recollection of how Iron man looks like during my times (referring to when I was still a kid.) But nonetheless, I enjoyed this much anticipated show just as much. 3.5/5
As usual, a superhero movie always sticks to the same recipe: good triumph evil and the flower vase damsel in distress. The evil: the terrorists and the father's friend who wants to kill him and desire to take control of the business empire. The flower vase damsel in distress: Gwyneth Paltrow, who goes "Oh, what's that small thingy device?", referring to the bomb to blast open the door. So bimbotic can?!
This movie is slightly different. Lesser action flick, very little romance, many cool technologies. I called the first prototype of his amour the "Tin man". The focus of the movie is more on the process of how he constructed his amour. Nice amour not made of Iron. If you did stay after the credits, you will know what to expect for the sequel. :)

Movie Review: Accuracy of Death
Accuracy of Death (a.k.a Sweet Rain 死神の精度) is the new movie offering by Takeshi Kaneshiro. In this movie, he acted as a Shinigami (Grim Reaper) called Chiba (named after the area he is in charged of), who judged whether his subjects are worthy of death. Everytime he "works", it always rained and he never get to see his sunny day. He loves music, "the greatest invention of humanity". In the plot, he has 3 subjects: the first being a OL with very low self-esteem, second is a gangster and the third is an old hairdresser. His boss, the black dog, always wondered why he bothers to judge when he usually go ahead with his subjects' death. For your information, no voice was dubbed for the dog. Only words come out in the form of subtitles. So when the dog laugh, the word "laugh" will appear. Haha!I love this movie and I am giving it a 4/5. Besides the fact that Takeshi Kaneshiro's character is funny and so yummy-looking, it is a "feel-good" movie and of cos, meaningful theme behind the movie. Although there was no climax, the funny scenes worked just fine for me. As the Grim Reaper was not from this world, he always created a butt of jokes with words and complained why there's so many new words to learn.
Watch it for: its "feel-good" plot, very handsome grim reaper, the funny scenes, the very nice theme song "Sunny Day"
Here's the theme song by the actress(the OL, Kazue Fujiki) in the show:
"Someday, I will see my sunny day like Chiba."
