Movie Review - Secret

Watched the movie “Secret” yesterday… din really intend to watch the show in the 1st place… my fren asked me to watch with her a few days back but I rejected her with a “I’m not a Jay Chou fan.”… then yesterday NIE frenz’ gathering… dinner then go movie… even “quarreled” with the previous fren when I told her abt it… she’s quite angry… oops…

Well… the show was beta than I tot… I like the lovey-dovey parts… have “初恋的感觉”… brings back memories… portrayed young student couple’s r/s quite well, I tink… conversations that sometimes sound lame & corny but at the same time, so sweet & romantic… silly little actions… trying to make your partner jealous… ahhh… those were the days…

But I din really like the twist at the end thou… the whole time travel thingy… to me, love stories are the most touching when u can actually relate to them… the first half of the show managed to do tat… but when they try to throw in the fantasy factor in the second half of the show, it’s sort of like splashing a bucket of cold water in your face and telling u “Hey… wake up, it’s juz a movie… it’s not real”… sometimes, some stories/shows should juz keep it simple… trying too hard to add twists & plots to increase the “entertainment value” of the movie can end up spoiling the whole thing…

Overall, I still tink the show is quite good lah… above average… without the Jay Chou factor… hahaha… u know one of the reasons why I din want to watch tis show in the beginning? I was turned off by the thought that a movie-viewing session could turn out to become like a fan club gathering… a lot of people (esp gals) flocking to watch the show because of Jay Chou… there’s one hard-core Jay Chou fan sitting behind us yesterday… she giggled and laughed at almost every line Jay Chou said at the 1st half of the show (and some parts aren’t even supposed to be funny)… and she cried like someone close to her died near the end of the show… these are the type of people who realli spoils your mood during a movie… so f**king irritating… lucky there’s onli one such case in the cinema yesterday… if have more, tink I’ll leave in the middle or shout “Shut up!”… hmm… then again, I wouldn’t shout at a gal… so tink I’ll juz leave… hahaha…

I’m watching the movie AGAIN tmr… no lah… dun misunderstand… it’s not THAT good… I juz feel 过意不去 for rejecting my fren earlier and then later going to watch with other frenz… so I’m 陪ing her tmr… and it’s my treat… haiz… pocket burn hole again… sobs…
