Enchanted is an entertaining, heartwarming, creative, meaningful and delightful romantic comedy which suits people of all ages.

1. I'm deeply impressed by the creative hybrid of live action, classic Disney 2D animation and the CGI 3D chipmunk.

2. The postmodern mixture of fairy tale and reality makes me ponder on the nature of love. LOVE should not be too simple (like what happens in fairy tales). Neither should we treat love as a very complicated affair. The message is that people who are desperate for love should stop day dreaming all the time, but at the same time, we should believe that one day we may find true love and remain positive. Both the princess (fairy tale) and the lawyer (reality) affect each other and experience personal growth. The Princess becomes more humanized and the lawyer becomes more romantic. What they discuss in the restaurant, law firm and park nearly moves me to tears. Do you believe in true love? Can you now still remember why you first fell in love with a person? Can love last forever? The film also reminds us to say "I love you" to the people whom we love.

3. Amy Adams performs so charmingly that the fascinating princess becomes 3-dimensional and convincing.

4. Some gags are hilarious (e.g. the CGI chipmunk, singing in the park, etc) and I'm also pleased by the slapstick jokes.

5. The OST featuring Disney Music is uplifting. I love True Love Kiss and So Close. ^^ The dancing at the end is well shot and well edited.

6. There is a very surprising and unconventional twist in the end, though a few critics may find it too syrupy and prefer an authentic solution to a clean, fairy tale one.

Do you believe in fairy tale and true love? This film makes me laugh, cry (maybe not you) and think. 4 / 5 Highly recommended.




Juno is a humorous and heart-warming coming-of-age movie which is about growth, sex and love.

1. The message is that we should not judge a person solely based on his her appearance and the film also creates a contrast between the adults' complex love affairs and teenagers' simple puppy love.

2. I love the jokes. Some are lousy, while some are subtle.

3. Most characters are well-developed & three-dimensional.

4. The OST is great. I love "Anyone Else But You", "Tire Swing", etc. There are many GOOD songs. Kimya Dawson's voice is mesmerizing!!! She reminds me of Cheer Chen, My Little Airport and Mejessic Dreams. Very dreamy and relaxing music... I just love the OST.

5. The drawings add much to the depiction of the teenagers' simple & carefree lives.

6. There are lots of smells, e.g. frat, perfume, pie, tic tak & his step mom's "TINA WATER".

Who can love a person for the whole life? Does real love really exist? Yes it does!!! 4 / 5 Highly recommended.

  5. 2月21仲有套no country for old men 上阿~真係多好戲!!!正
    [版主回覆02/07/2008 19:45:00]It is a visually stunning, frightening and unconventional movie which talks about the evil inside human beings. I do love it, but am not sure if the mainstream audience will like it. We will talk about There will be Blood next Tuesday and No Country for Old Men on 17/2. ^^

  7. Thanks for your message! I love this film too.  It is really a touching film.  I was touched but not moved to tears as the story is sweet.  The sweet moments made me smile while the funny moments made me laugh.  To be honest, I can't find suitable words to praise this film.  Just highly recommend!!!!
    [版主回覆02/10/2008 00:16:00]I hope I have read your mind. You mean it is a film moving the audience in a subtle way. Its black humor is subtle. So are the touching moments. It is not a 100% commercial film. I also love it. I love the characters there. I love the message. I love the music. Perhaps it reminds me of the past... ^^

  8. 我看了《 L之終章︰最後的23天》,kenji你有看嗎?看完會介紹嗎?我寫影評去了....
    [版主回覆02/10/2008 23:05:00]I won't watch it. Indeed, I have watched 12 films in JAN and 2 in FEB. I should strike a balance between my work and my interest hahaha. I will try to pick the ones with good reviews and those that interest me. I have seen L1 and L2 and think they are entertaining. However, once I left the theater, I forgot some details and went home with nothing. So I think I will skip this one ^^. Let me know how you feel please. THANKS!!!

  9. 用 youtube,條clips好甩,甩到聽唔到.....
    小小建議︰繼續用window media player 播放clips。另外,可以再整一個youtube link。係影畫絮語按「收聽」會連接到window media player的link,而youtube link的網址可以在你blog上公佈。
    [版主回覆02/11/2008 23:26:00]Technical stuffs hahaha will send your advice to the person in charge. THANKS
    very much Jason. By the way, my friends and I do not have this
    experience. Need to consult experts and investigate the matter. THX My friend also suggests you load the whole clip once without turning on the speakers. After loading it once, you can listen to the whole clip smoothly. ^^

  12. Right.  Good movies often reflect our lives, make us introspect and inspire us. Just read your commentary about Sweeney Todd. Seems interesting. Try to allocate some time to watch it. Really envy you being able to watch 12 films in a month.
    [版主回覆02/12/2008 22:23:00]Agree. Good movies should be able to make me think and feel. Thanks for visiting our website and blog. Watching 12 films a month can be tiring sometimes hahaha... The special screenings are usually held at 9:40 and so we may sleep late sometimes. ^^

  14. Happy new year!   The scene that chipmunk mimes the bad guy and the princess is my favourite!    I also love the songs in the movie, they really add to it.   Makes me want to buy the soundtrack. It’s a good movie to watch at Chinese New Year and also Valentine’s Day.
    [版主回覆02/14/2008 14:32:00]Kung Hei Fat Choi ar Fu Fu. ^^ Three of the five nominated songs in Oscar come from this movie. The OST is great and So Close makes me cry ^^
