Review Filem : Real Steel

Salam.. hari ni 17 hb Oct 2011.. aku amik Annual Leave dan berkesempatan menonton wayang di Berjaya Times Square bersama Housemate aku..citer Real Steel lakonan Jack Hughman.. Mula2 ingat kan filem ni berkenaan dengan orang yang jadi robot.. rupanya tidak.

Ianya mengisahkan tentang perjalanan kisah hidup Charlie Kenton / Jack Hughman yang menggunakan robot untuk bertinju ataupun lebih mudah dengan kata lain nya SUKAN ROBOT BOXING.. Charlie menggunakan robot untuk mencari sesuap nasi apabila kerjayanya sebagai ahli sukan tinju tidak berjaya..

Perjalanan Filem ini mengambil masa selama 2 jam sedikit pun tidak membosankan apabila susun atur perjalanan filem ini disusun begitu kemas dengan sinematografi yang cukup cantik. Paling mengkagumkan robot yang menggunakan alat kawalan ini kelihatan begitu hidup di layar perak. Patutlah komen2 yang aku baca kat Facebook mengatakan filem ini tersangat best.

Kalau nak diungkapkan filem ini dikategorikan sebagai 13 PL kalau tak silap tapi bagi aku filem ini mempunyai inti pati sebagai sebuah filem yang cukup sesuai di tonton oleh seisi keluarga. Nilai kasih sayang antara Charlie dan anaknya yang diabaikan begitu menyentuh perasaan sehinggakan beberapa scene yang simple berjaya membuatkan penonton mengalirkan air mata.. no doubt.. tak percaya? tonton sendiri filem ini ya?

Bagi aku filem ini simple, kreatif dan menyentuh perasaan. Pergilah tengok tak rugi.!

Real Steel is a 2011 American science fiction action film starring Hugh Jackman and directed by Shawn Levy. The film is based on the 1956 short story "Steel" by Richard Matheson, though Levy placed the film in U.S. state fairs and other "old-fashioned" Americana settings. Real Steel was in development for several years before production began in June 11th of 2010. Filming took place primarily in the U.S. state of Michigan. Animatronic robots were built for the film, and motion capture technology was used to depict the brawling of computer-generated robots and animatronics. Real Steel was publicly released in Australia on October 6, 2011 and in the United States and Canada on October 7, 2011 to mostly positive reviews. It will be in both conventional and IMAX theaters.

Synopsis
In 2020, humans have been replaced by robots in boxing. Charlie Kenton (Hugh Jackman) is a former boxer who attempts to get money in illegal boxing matches between robots to pay his debts to loan sharks. During a fight, Charlie's robot, Ambush, is destroyed by Black Thunder, a bull belonging to Ricky (Kevin Durand). Having made a bet that Ambush would win, Charlie now owes Ricky $20,000, which he doesn't pay before leaving.

Charlie is informed his ex-girlfriend has died, and he has to attend a meeting to decide the fate of his preteen son Max (Dakota Goyo). Max's aunt Debra (Hope Davis) and uncle Marvin (James Rebhorn) want full custody, and Charlie gives it to them in exchange for $100,000 from Marvin, $50,000 of it in advance, on the condition that Charlie takes care of Max for three months, while Marvin and Debra are away on a second honeymoon.

Charlie and Max meet with Charlie's friend Bailey Tallet (Evangeline Lilly), who runs the boxing gym of her deceased father, Charlie's old coach. There, Charlie buys a secondhand WRB league robot, the once-famous Noisy Boy, and arranges for it to fight the illegal circuit's champion, Midas, at a venue belonging to his friend Finn (Anthony Mackie). Partly due to his inexperience with Noisy Boy's combinations, Charlie ends up losing control of Noisy Boy and Midas destroys it.

Charlie breaks into a junkyard with Max to steal scraps that he can use to put a new robot together. There, Max falls over a ledge, where he is saved from doom after being snagged by a lodged and buried robot arm. After Charlie pulls him back up, Max uncovers the entire robot, called Atom. On Max's insistence, Charlie takes it back to Bailey's gym, where they discover Atom is an obsolete Generation-2 sparring bot built in 2014. Atom has been designed to sustain massive damage, but is unable to deal out much damage itself. Max convinces Charlie to get Atom a fight, and upgrades it to take vocal commands using spare parts from Noisy Boy and Ambush.

Charlie and Max take Atom to fight an unsanctioned outdoor match against a robot called Metro, and Atom wins, earning back some of Charlie's money. Atom's string of subsequent wins and high speed humanoid boxing maneuvers which are rarely seen from a robot, attracts the attention of a promoter from the World Robot Boxing league (WRB), who offers Atom a professional fight against a robot called Twin Cities. Charlie accepts, and Atom wins again, thanks to Charlie's knowledge of boxing, which allows him to locate a design flaw in Twin Cities. Taking advantage of Atom's subsequent novelty attention, Max challenges WRB champion Zeus, designed by arrogant genius Tak Mashido (Karl Yune) and sponsored by rich Russian Farra Lemcova (Olga Fonda), who accepts, but first tries to buy the upstart Atom.

As they leave the Twin Cities fight, Charlie is attacked by Ricky and his men, who beat him severely, assault Max and steal their money. Feeling guilty, Charlie returns Max to his aunt and uncle so they can protect him, but Bailey convinces him he can be a better father to Max. Debra allows him one more chance, and Charlie takes Max to the Zeus-Atom match. Zeus severely damages Atom — while also getting injured, a first for Zeus. In addition, by the end of the first round, Ricky ends up being led away by Finn and some of his men to pay up and presumably beat him up (earlier, he bet $100,000 that Atom wouldn't last the first round). In the last round of the five-round match, Atom's vocal receptors are damaged, and Atom must fight in shadow-boxing mode, copying Charlie's moves from the aisle. Zeus, now controlled manually by a very furious Tak Mashido, expends energy on pummeling the defensive Atom. After Zeus runs very low on power, Atom begins to heavily damage Zeus, even knocking the seemingly invincible champion down once, but doesn't win before the round ends, and the judges declare a winner on points. They favor Zeus, but his reputation is tarnished, and Atom has become famous as "The People's Champion".

Salam satu Malaysia..

Okaylah jum citer pilihan movie kali ini.. di saat kanak kanak lain memilih menonton transformer dan harry potter siri ke15 aku memilih menonton larry crowne. Citer ni membariskan pelakon gred A+ iaitu Tom Hanks dan my lovely Favorite Actress Julia Roberts.

Filem ini mengisahkan Larry Crowne yang telah diberhentikan kerja atas sebab downsize kerana dia tidak mempunyai kelayakan sijil, diploma mahupun ijazah.. Dalam citer ni Larry seorang yang rajin berkerja. Kira2 best employees lah.. tapi kekurangan nya tak de kelulusan. Errmm situasi yang biasa dan terdapat di mana2 kan?


Sedih la sebab dia ni banyak hutang tiba2 kena berhenti kerja.. so korang akan dapat tengok macam mana Larry bergelut dengan masalah ni.. dalam pada masa yang sama dia mengambil keputusan untuk sambung belajar.. Anyway aku tak menyesal tengok citer nie.. Julia roberts memang pandai memilih skrip sekarang.. Filem ni bagi aku sangat classy.. comel dan menghiburkan.. jap2 aku tepek review untuk korang faham jalan citer ni k..

Sinopsis
Until he was downsized, affable, amiable Larry Crowne (Hanks) was a superstar team leader at the big-box company where he's worked since his time in the Navy. Underwater on his mortgage and unclear on what to do with his suddenly free days, Larry heads to his local college to start over. There he becomes part of a colorful community of outcasts, also-rans and the overlooked all trying to find a better future for themselves...often moving around town in a herd of scooters. In his public-speaking class, Larry develops an unexpected crush on his teacher Mercedes Tainot (Roberts), who has lost as much passion for teaching as she has for her husband. The simple guy who has every reason to think his life has stalled will come to learn an unexpected lesson: when you think everything worth having has passed you by, you just might discover your reason to live.

Review dari internet:
Saw it at European premiere. Overall it is a nice comedy. Not for hard laughs, but a somewhat sentimental story about an excellent salesman who is fired, because he doesn't have a college degree. Hence he goes back to community college and ends up falling in love.

So far so good. The entire cast is good and Julia is excellent as a hard drinking disillusioned teacher. Tom's direction is a bit slow. So is the build up of the story. It seems to move endlessly among A story, B story trying to please everyone.

Tom decided on a strange, sepia colored 70s look for this one. It's so unreal, or maybe real, I quiet was turned off by it. I suppose for a mature adult audience in their mid 40s this one works. Teenagers will see the Transporter CGI nonsense, while their parents will have a good time with this love-comedy-drama story.

Anyway gie la tengok citer ni memang kelakar tau... korang akan puas la ketawa

Nur Kasih The Movie - Review

salam.. Lama tak update dengan review filem. Satu je alasan.. yakni malas. So tak leh kata apa la.. Tapi filem terbaru Nur kasih The Movie memanggil aku untuk menulis.. Filem ini adalah kesinambungan drama Nur Kasih yang ditayangkan di kaca tv sebelum ini.

Filem ini masih mengekalkan pelakon yang sama iaitu Remy Ishak, Fizz Fairuz dan Tizz Zakiah. Sebenarnya secara jujur aku tidak lah mengikuti plot yang ditayang kan sebelum ini yakni dalam bentuk drama. Tetapi memandangkan tertarik dengan review dan ajakan teman aku gagahkan juga untuk menonton Filem ini di wangsa walk pada hari pertama tayangannya.

Agak mengejutkan filem ini fully booked walaupun masa tayangan hampir pukul 12 malam dan hari berkerja. Cuma yang tak besh nya aku agak kesejukan, batuk dan dapat tiket 3 row dari depan.. memang tak selesa. tapi sebabkan ingin juga menonton filem ini aku cuba tenangkan perasaan dan menikmatinya.

Secara jujur dan ikhlas secara keseluruhan bagi aku filem ini dari segi senimatografi sangat cantik. Anda akan berpeluang melihat background / latar belakang sawah padi di kampung, pemandangan indah padang pasir di jordan dan beberapa lagi shot menarik yang boleh membuatkan anda kagum dengan keindahan yang terdapat didalam nya.

Dari segi lakonan Tiz Zakiah dan remy ishak biasa saja bagi aku. Tak der feel pun. Remy lebih bagus dalam filem Cun lakonan beliau bersama maya karin. Adakah kerna dah bosan dgn nur kasih atau memang kehendak skrip aku kurang pasti.. Tiz Zakiah juga dlm filem ni biasa2 saja. Tak real lah bila kehilangan suami tapi lakonannya mcm hilang kwn sahaja. Babak Remy Ishak sakit juga mcm kaku dan nampak tak real. Sorry guys ini pandangan aku.

Tapi bagi Fizz Fairuz lakonan nya okay dan bolehlah.. nampak peningkatan walaupun masih belum boleh dikategorikan sebagai superb.. Dari segi skrip memang hebat cuma lakonan dan kesinambungan filem ini tak sampai "rasa" bagi aku.. Habis cerita ini tak rasa sedih, tak rasa happy rasa biasa saja. Bagi aku setiap filem yg kita tonton perlu ada rasa apabila kita habis dan selesai menontonnya.

Bukan nak hentam tapi kepada mereka yang nak tonton pergilah ke panggung dan rasai lah sendiri.. tepuk dada tanya selera.

Wasalam

Tsunami, Gempa Bumi dan hari Kiamat

Salam semua... salam satu Malaysia.. Lama jugak tidak update blog.. sedar2 dah hampir 20 ribu kali blog aku ini dibaca. terima kasih yang tak terhingga..

Sekarang yang hangat diperkatakan ialah berkenaan dengan gempa bumi berukuran 8.9 skala rektar di Sendai (betul ke ejaan nie) di Jepun.. Ya Allah.. betapa kuatnya gegaran tersebut diikuti ombak tsunami yang melanda... Kepada orang kat luar yang belum tahu tsunami dan gempa bumi tersebut berlaku pada hari Jumaat - penghulu segala hari... Anda perasaan tak tsunami yang sama berlaku di thailand pada 26 Dec 2004 juga berlaku pada hari Jumaat..










Adakah ianya satu kebtulan atau memang di rancang oleh Yang Maha Kuasa.. Aku juga dapat BBM Message dari seorang kawan yang mengatakan bahawa segala yang berlaku adalah kuasa yang Maha Esa terutama bencana yang menimpa manusia adalah segala balasan kepada penduduk yang bumi yang melakukan kejahilan...dan juga disebabkan hampirnya hari kiamat..Wallahualam.. tetapi yang mengejutkan dia juga ada menghantar satu gambar lahirnya seorang bayi yang bermata satu yang dinyatakan oleh Al-Quran apabila dekatnya hari kiamat.

Lihatlah Gambar dibawah nie dan anda nilailah sendiri kekuasaan Allah SWT .. Bayi ini dilaporkan dilahirkan di Israel dan tepat di jidatnya... Semoga Allah memberikan hidayah kepada saya dan juga pembaca.. Salam.

Shaolin Movie Review~2011

Salam satu Malaysia..huhuhu lebih dua bulan tak update blog.. hampir terlupa sebenarnya yang aku ada blog.. Yerlah nak menulis mood tak dtg jer.. selalunya bila ade je movie baru aku rajin update blog. Ade dua tiga movie yang aku tak sempat nak update. Sebab nya satu je malas.. Bukak pc, pc yang tengok aku. Paling kuat pun dengar MP3. Tu pun lagu yang sama je aku dengar ulang punya ulang sampai jemu. Apsal ntah mungkin dah menapous agaknya. Hahahah.. ade dua tiga movie aku rasa mcm mendapat seruan ..eceh seruan katanya.. untuk menulis. Yang paling teruja aku nak ulas berkenaan dengan cerita Cine.@cina@china yang rasanya bertahun aku tak tengok.. Cerita lain yang aku belum ulas ngankung, Kak Limah balik rumah dan Khurafat.

Sebelum tu jum baca tentag cerita yang paling aku teruja, Cerita yang aku maksudkan ialah...cerita yang bertajuk Shaolin lakonan Andy Lau, Nicholas Tse dan abg Jackie Chan. Cerita nie memang superb untuk diulas apatah lagi kepada korang yang belum tengok. Kalau sapa2 yang belum tengok sempena Gong Xi Fa Chai ni pi la tengok.. memang best.. Betul aku tak tipu. Asyik2 tengok cerita Melayu je apasalahnya korang tengok cerita Cina plak kan? tak salah, kata satu Malaysia? hehehehe...

Cerita nie aku boleh bagi A sebab dari segi aksi yang memang menggerunkan. Korang akan rasa aksi yang dimuatkan memang tahap ganas gilo2. So kalau rasa nak bwak anak sedara, anak sepupu atau anak jiran sebelah yang umurnya ala2 anak ayam baru menetas tak payah la yer sebab filem ni agak ganas aksi nya. Ade aksi bunuh2 mcm kat Bosnia dan palestin. So tak digalakkan. Lagi satu dalam filem ni tak ade aksi2 romantik mcm sembilu 1 atau Cinta kolestrol. Sapa yang sukakan aksi dan dramatik action memang hangpa semua akan teruja.

Dari segi kostum memang ok kot cuma aku tertanya2 apsal masa zaman pemerintahan Andy Lau pakaian nya mcm pakaian barat. ? kantoi di situ. Kalau bab sedih.. memang sedih jugak so kepada mereka yang dalam hati ada taman astakona atau taman rashidah utama boleh lah bawak tisu tuk lap air mata okay. Kalau takde, lap je kat kusyen wayang tu. Sedih tengok Andy lau yang dikhianati dan bagaimana keluarganya hancur disebabkan perebutan kuasa dan wang.

Tapi ape pun p la tengok yer.. aku nak tulis lagi dari segi skrip, senimatografi, kesinambungan tapi member umah aku ajak makan nasi lemak pulak. adess.. tak dapat nak ulas lebih lanjut walaupun aku bukan pakar nak ulas.. tapi aku peduli apa kan? ulas je la buat2 pandai... hahahahahaha.... makan dulu okay

jap2 lupa nak bagi tahu.. abg jackie chan merupakan bintang undangan.. so ade la dia kung fu tapi tak banyak .. sebab dlm cerita nie dia kaki lawak dan tukang masak... so dia tak reti sgt katanya nak kugfu.. abg jackie chan dan tua la.. so bagi dia relak2 sudah... hahahahaha
