KAMI The Movie

Caught it @ METROWEALTH CINEPLEX, KUCHING
Its 1 HOUR & 5o MINUTES of TEEN CONFLICTS!!
You should catch it because you LOVE THE SERIES, AND YOU WANT TO RETHINK ABOUT YOUR LIFE.
You should not watch this movie if you THINK MALAY MOVIES ARE LAME.

If you love One Tree Hill, then this is sort of a Malay version of it. Maybe comparing it to One Tree Hill might be a little to much, but the plot and the story line does reflect on the infamous teenage series from the US. The story overall reflects how teens today cope with family issues, friendship, social interest, and drugs, and how they generally take life for granted, but treasure friendship more than their own family.

The acting was adequate, and there was a few introduction of Malaysian indie groups here and there. Nonetheless, the recording of these indie groups was kind of awful, making the songs sound too noisy and distorted. In addition to that, the song selection was horrible, and did not match the scenes appropriately, making it hard to have the feel and the sentiments of any scene.

I think adults would be worried to see the way teens behave in this movie, as it does show how teens could easily get involved in all sort of things including drugs.... but that is the hard fact of life these days, and I'd say that whom ever does not understand teens these days should give this movie a watch. Overall, its not one of the best malay movies this year... but its worth a look at.

Eagle Eye

You should not watch this movie if you ARE NOT INTO HI-TECH CRAP.

The trailer would suggest that this is one of those 'must see' movies, but I'd like to rebuff that. I had a typical different idea of the movie from the trailer, and looking at it made a whole new meaning. It was a typical 'robot domination' movie, and I think I have seen a movie similar a few years back. There's a few elements which made you think this is an X-men movie, but there is also some pretty lame stuff, especially when it comes to cops chasing the supposed to be bad guy.

The ending was typical, and as far as the plot goes... it wasn't that amazing. I actually loved the idea that someone mysterious was able to give instructions to some random guy/girl through the phone, but as the story progressed, I was left dissapointed due to its typical storyline which pretty much reflected guy gets chased as a bad person by authorities, guy tries to prove his innosence, and everything is forgiven once the culprit is know. Nonetheless, the good effects covered the ordinary plot, and this was a movie I enjoyed. Nevertheless, I don't hink this is a movie I'd like to see for a second time due to its ordinary storyline.
