Movie Mania

Been feelin' very lazy to write... watched quite a number of movies online lately. Not the 'download' type but the streaming type. Don't have to download wan... just wait for it to buffer and then can watch already. Very easy. No mah fan at all. Three movies which I found that are already ching (clear) :



The Bucket List (2007) is a movie starring Jack Nicholson & Morgan Freeman. I quote the plot synopsis in IMDB:


Edward Cole (Jack Nicholson) has worked hard his whole life to build his hospital corporation into a Fortune 500 company. As CEO, Edward is on top of the world when cancer comes knocking on his door. In the hospital, Edward is put into a room with another cancer patient, Carter Chambers (Morgan Freeman). The doctors have given both the news that they have six-months to a year to live. Carter just blocks out the bad news and continues watching Jeopardy on TV, because he knows all the answers. When Carter was young, he was able to attend the first year of college, but when his wife got pregnant, Carter found work as an automobile mechanic. Carter remembers that in one of his classes the professor gave them an assignment to fill out a Bucket List of the things you want to do in life before you kick the bucket. Carter starts writing his list of things to do. Edward sees the list and writes some other things to do like skydiving and race car driving. They both decide to leave the hospital and embark on fulfilling all the things on the bucket list.

This is a very sad drama, but it was a good watch. Of course, it was because of the two main man. Arrgh! I don't know how to describe it. This movie touches the core. The feelings. Yeah, it made me feel. What did I feel? I can't put it in words. All I know is that I felt it... good script.

I watched it here.



The second movie is a romantic comedy starring Ben Stiller, The Heartbreak Kid (2007), coincidentally, it's a remake of a 1972 title. The synopsis found in IMDB:

Eddie is forty, owns a sporting-goods store, and is still single. After watching his ex-fiancée walk down the aisle, he meets Lila, an environmental researcher, who seems too good to be true. Pressured by his father and best friend, Eddie pops the question and marries Lila after only 6 weeks. However, as he almost instantly discovers, his new bride is a nightmare with more baggage than he can handle. She's immature, foolish, a monster in bed, owes a tremendous amount of money to various sources, and as it turns out, is only a volunteer and doesn't actually have a job. While on their honeymoon in Cabo, Eddie meets Miranda, a down-to-earth lacrosse coach who is visiting with her family. Sparks fly, and Eddie falls for her. Now comes the tricky part of breaking off his marriage to crazy Lila, all while keeping the truth from Miranda about why he's in Cabo in the first place...

No, not quite Love Actually... The funniest part is the bed scene... poor Ben Stiller... and the moral of the story is - don't get married after knowing the person for only 6 weeks. For the husbands out there, there's this phrase worth your thought - Happy wife, happy life! *grins*

But I think the ending wasn't quite an ending... watched it here.



The final clear movie found online is I Am Legend, starring Will Smith. A lotta people said that it wasn't worth watching. Prolly because most of the time, it was just him and himself, and the dog. Not much dialogue, just some in-between flashbacks and him talking to mannequins... very kesian, ok... The synopsis on IMDB:

Will Smith plays (as far as his character knows) the last man on earth, our hero, Robert Neville, a sole survivor of a world dominating virus created by man, that initially takes out 588 million people in 2009, and was originally created to somehow cure cancer. In 2012, Neville (a former scientist) dedicates his life to surviving for the sake of the human race, since he's somehow immune to the virus and those who have been infected, and attempts to find a cure. In order to find a cure, he seeks out the infected beings at night, who seem to have completely forgotten how to act human, their instincts and survival skills have become non-existent, and either takes them out to survive, or in some cases, drags them to his underground lab for research purposes, in hopes of correcting humankind's mistake.

I was surprised to find a clear copy here.

I watched the "I m Legend" yesterday, quite good leh. But one thing I don't like about american movie is that they always make themselves looks like hero, where other nation ppl are not. Very common in american movie.
