November 9, 2006 On the EdgeMan this movie was sooo boring. It fails to be clever. It's been done before so many times. There is no originality in triad films anymore these days. A good cast (except for Rain Li)...but not good enough to support the movie. Did you find this review helpful? Yes (Report This) -
Art of the Devil 2 (US Version)
1 people found the following helpful
November 9, 2006 Art of the Devil 2If you can stand bad acting and poor scares, then this movie can be watchable. The gore/effects/makeup looks pretty fake, so it's not scary and probably won't make you squirm. The ending was very unoriginal - nothing surprising about it as it's been done in many other horror films before. Did you find this review helpful? Yes (Report This) -

November 9, 2006 Failure to LaunchThe name of the film says it all. It's pretty predictable. Although there are some funny and sweet moments, it lacks originality and charm. The lead actors also possess no chemistry. A total failure...! Did you find this review helpful? Yes (Report This) -

November 9, 2006 Silent Hill.I didn't expect a lot from this movie, so I was surprised that it was actually not bad. I haven't played the game before, so I didn't know what the story was about, but it was enjoyable. Not a scary movie, but does create a creepy atmosphere and is visually stylish.

November 9, 2006 The Lake HouseThe characters don't create a spark as it did in the korean version, although there is some evident chemistry between the characters. If you disregard the logic of the movie, it's a sweet and romantic movie. 6/10. Did you find this review helpful? Yes (Report This) -

November 9, 2006 Saw IILoved it - I'm a fan of the horror genre. Expect thrills, gore, blood and more blood. Not a movie for the squeamish. I liked how the characters are trapped in a house all together at once - creates a nice atmosphere for paranoia and tension! Did you find this review helpful? Yes (Report This) -

November 9, 2006 X-Men 3Love love love the X-Men francise. X Men 3 is packed with action and adventure. Although it could be one of the weaker franchises, it still proves to be entertaining and worth watching. The visual effects are great. Hope there will be X-Men 4!!! Did you find this review helpful?

November 9, 2006 Nacho LibreJack Black is a great actor. Another silly kind of comedy from him but he's good at it. The story is sweet and endearing, but not enough to make it a great movie, as the jokes are not as funny or original. 6/10. Did you find this review helpful? Yes (Report This) -

November 9, 2006 The Da Vinci CodeI expected this film to take me on an interesting adventure of finding the holy grail - I was wrong. It was long and boring. It doesn't live up to the hype. Probably better to read the book. Did you find this review helpful? Yes (Report This) -

October 29, 2006 Winter SonataLovely drama. Loved watching it, especially the first couple episodes when they were still in highschool. Great drama, great acting. Despite a couple of flaws here and there, it can be forgiven and forgotten. Recommend this drama to anyone...^^ 9/10. Did you find this review helpful? Yes (Report This) -

October 29, 2006 Kelly & JordanIn the first few fast tracks, Kelly sings out of breath, and in some parts of the songs, she sounds like she's talking. Not good - she probably hasn't sung those old songs in a long time and be able to dance at the same time. But when singing in ballads, her voice sounds almost flawless, quite lovely. I was surprised that Kelly and Jordan only sang like 2 songs together, they might as well have been at seperate concerts. I think this album is for die hard fans only - it's nothing particulary original or captivating. 6/10 Did you find this review helpful? Yes (Report This) -
Human (Limited Edition) (CD + Bonus CD + DVD)

October 28, 2006 HumanI think you need to listen to this album a few times before the songs sound good - so it's worth giving it a chance. The songs are of good quality, but nothing stands out like it did on his past couple of albums. Still recommend this though, good songs, good singing. Did you find this review helpful?

Happy Girl (CD+DVD)

October 28, 2006 Happy GirlI think Kelly Chen lost her flavour, her spark a few years back already. Although she tries hard to reinvent herself each time, she ends up singing the same kind of songs. The album consists of the usual ballads and one fast track or two. The songs aren't particulary memorable nor original. But I think her singing is consistently good, it's just not been put to good songs. 5/10. Did you find this review helpful? Yes (Report This) -

October 28, 2006 Still FantasyI love this album! Another favourite in the car ^^
My favourite tracks would be 1, 3, 5 and 10.
Track 1: I love the use of different instruments, the violin really suits the song.
Track 3: Love the duet. Great melody.
Track 5: Lovely ballad, great lyrics. Love singing along to this
Track 10: Beautiful song, love the music - sort of sounds like that traditional chinese music fused with modernity.
Brilliant album. Great music, singing, story telling.Did you find this review helpful? Yes (Report This) -
