  2. 我想我入場看的大約有60多套吧,但好戲真的是買少見少,好多時候都被騙了進場,真正好睇又值回票價真的不多,希望下年有更多好戲吧。

    回覆刪除
  3. Agree that 好戲真的是買少見少... I will try to choose some good ones next year. Listening to radio programmes on movies and visiting the website Rottontomatoes can help me decide on which movies I should see. Happy New Year

  4. Rotten tomatoes 我都成日睇,不過有時東西方觀眾口味不同,有時又好難作準,當係參考下。但係我多數都會睇報紙專欄,或者聽電台既電影評論節目,邁克、畢明同登徒、紀陶講得都唔錯,簡直一矢中的。

  5. The reviews in Rotten Tomatoes are comprehensive and I learn how to write film reviews there. Very often, the reviews accurately reveal the truth and I have been disappointed "just" a few times. It is a useful tool from my perspective. I also listen to the radio programmes hosted by 登徒 too. His review is quite objective, but I may disagree with him sometimes. Where can I see the reviews written by 邁克、畢明同、紀陶? Thanks!

  6. You can see 邁克(everyday)and畢明(only on Sun) 's review on Apple Daily.I dun know 紀陶's articles , I just listen his radio show but he seems not show up very often, or you can buy the U travel magazine every Thu, the guy called 何文龍 attend the radio show every Sat.

  8. 睇咁多戲,正! 我今年在戲院看的電影不多,主要係冇乜時間,不過也在家裏看很多影碟

  9. I really enjoy watching good movies in cinemas. I can be away from the place I am familiar with and things annoying me, purely concentrating on the story. Psychology calls it a climax experience which leads to self-reflection. Surely, as I am busy sometimes, I have to watch VCDs too. ^&^

  11. Thanks for your reply.

    I think Crash is a good and, to a certain extent, entertaining movie, but the tag lines are too intentional. I prefer Brokeback Mountain to Crash as it is more natural.

    生命的飲歌 is fresh and 戀愛夢遊中 is creative, but I think their plots are flawed.

    兩生花 is disappointing to my mind. Do you know the message of the movie? Why should I relate myself to the main characters in the movie? Is there another ME in the world? Even if there is one, why do I bother to know him?

    Gloomy Sunday is just so so to you? I think cinematography is gripping and the story is impressive.

    Agree that 花樣奇緣 is excellent. It was actually my second best last year.

  12. 慕尼黑 同 油激暗戰係咪2006上?呢兩套我都好喜歡。 Gloomy Sunday .... 唔知點解,唔係太感動我,戀愛夢遊中 反而好有共鳴,因為好"我",電影就係咁,hit 唔 hit 到,好難講。正如剛看了"the holiday " , 好開心,好講到女性的感情弱點,佢hit到我囉。

    回覆刪除
  13. YES 慕尼黑 & 油激暗戰係2006上, but I have not watched them. Gloomy Sunday is a beautiful film and I felt very sad! GOOD to find movies which can touch you. The experience is satisfying... "The holiday" is cosy, but the ending is a bit disappointing!

  14. There shouldn't be ANOTHER me in this world.   However, the world is not as simple as I see it.  Forever the visionary Kieslowski.

  15. The opinions on this movie are very extreme! ... I do feel that different individuals have some connections when they do the same thing.

  18. Wow, i estimated i had seen at least 70 movies in cinema last year when i counting my movie ends. And had also seen the same size of movies DVD at home, but can't remember what is it about on some of them. The movie i seen most in 2006 was brokeback mountain and Hidden (Cache), i saw brokeback mountain many time beacause i think it really good, i became a fans of Ang Lee since then; But i saw "Hidden" many times because i had fell in sleep in the middle of the movie everytime and can't finish it, so i saw it again and again, till now, i still not know how the ending was, hahaha.  i think the the casting is good, I just not in the right mood to see that movie. Bytheway, my most favorite movie is still "Seven", i thought i already saw it more than ten times. The story is really good, and Kevin Spacey is brilliant, he is really a great actor! Hey guys, are you all Broadway Insight Pass member? I am think of a constant movie gethering, so we all movie fan can enjoy good movie togther and talk about it in the dinner aftermath, like what we are talking about in my blog, right Kenji?

    1. I am quite sure I will watch more than 80 movies in cinemas this year. 2. I know there will be some good ones in March. Let's watch them together if we are free. 3.
    I do not have an insight pass, but I may sometimes get free tickets
    from different websites. If you also get free tickets sometimes, we can
    watch two movies for free. You may contact me at mov.reviews@gmail.com (Of
    course, the free tickets from the film distributors are only for
    the critics of our online radio programme which will be launched soon.) Thanks for your support Leo!

  19. but do you have many free tickets for few people? i mean we all movie fans here in our network can go movies together. It's nice, right, occupy the whole row in the cinema and what a nice moment we all discuss about the movie in a nice restaurant or cafe togehter.kind of mini movies club. may one day we all can lunch a private member club somewhere, donate our movie or music collections and share to each other. May be there will be another Fran c ois Truffaut in between. Bytheway, i think there is a coming one called " pan's labyrinth 魔間迷宮" seems quite nice, is any guys have interest to see it together?

    回覆刪除
  20. I am looking forward to seeing 魔間迷宮! It is a great film having won several awards. I am interested... Any other people? About the free tickets, I mean only two people can watch two movies for free.
