The Holiday


http://www.sonypictures.com/movies/theholiday/

Quite a new concept in exchanging the house online. I would like to try that too if I got my own flat as an adventure journey..!

2 women had similar reasons to leave, but they experienced different things and met different people which were around the original house lord. Such as drama....

It's a novel and a fantasy for sure. Jude Law is handsome, Cameron is old (looks like Goldie Hawn), so as Kate Winslet (how many years from Titanic?).. Jack Black just being in comedy again, but the old guy acted as Arthur Abbot was a star...saying words of wisedom in the movie that I wished to jog down.. The storyline of Alice (Winslet) was developed with more varieties and meaningful to go on whether Amanda (Diaz) has as tougher decision to make...

The soundtrack will be another great hit again for Christmas. Personally, I still like Love Actually as it is more realistic somehow, except the prime minister part for sure..!

The movie surprised me, approximately 2.5 hours without smooth finishing (think there would be more scenes behind being edited). What a busy movie month at the end of the year..!

The Nativity Story


A movie about the birth of Jesus with careful research, resembled the ancient view of lands in Judea. The story is well known to Christians so the viewing was something like debug any errors or defects from the passage of the Bible.

The main focus was Mary, that is fair enough as Jesus was still in the womb but not particularly made to satisfied the Catholics. Most of the plots followed the original text in the Bible. Surely there were scenes that weren't shown as the Bible contains 2 to 3 chapters to describe things happened at that time from the 4 evangelical books in the new testaments. These missing parts were filled up smoothly in the movie.

The selling point was how the film described the inner-self of these characters. Especially Mary the virgin who got pregnant without marriage could be a death sentence sin at that time. The struggles between the family, Joesph and the villagers in Galilee were a logical responses. That suggested why Jesus later was not welcomed back to the village during his preaching life.

The filming was take part in the same site as the other movies: The Passion of the Christ and the Gladiator. These similar era would bring people visual images so that they understand more about the background of the Bible. For instance, how worse for being taxed by the Rome government and how desperate a messiah was expected. The pace of the film was a bit slow as in the journey from Nazareth to Bethlehem. Surely, you won't expect any "Hollywood elements" in this movie such as chasing, explosions or combats. This is more like a documentary of life, biography or drama as a pilgrimage.

I don't think The movie would create a big hit as The Passion of the Christ since there was no debatable issues in the presentation. It's just peaceful as silent night somehow. But that was a well researched film for those who had faith to have a better understanding of the passage and also an introduction for non-Christian about how Jesus was born.

A good tool for introductory Christianity.

Happy Feet


http://www2.warnerbros.com/happyfeet/

So that's an early morning outing for a cartoon..

A real cartoon for for kids? Nowadays cartoons don't do the same thing, they deliver things that
is really deep in themes and educate both adults and children.

At first, I was thinking of a Lion King setting, but indeed there's a much difference thing
behind...

What themes does the movie has? Obviously with self-accpetance and acceptance of what you have. Strong family issue in forgiveness, friendship and BGR, challenge on tradition and most
importantly, ecology protection.

Again, human is selfish.

Other than Finding Memo, this movie creates another beautiful ocenic scene and great computer synchronising which boarden one's view and enjoyed. The sound tracks could be interesting as well with that many songs to sing...

Not bad to watch it and make one's happy, good voice-over with the scene behind..!

Song of the Heart, what could that be representing? dream? vision? purpose of life? motto?
Expedition... an essential part for personal growth..

ps. Forgot what Mumble always say in his mouth.... something about "finding it out.." or what..

The amazing race


I was an hour earlier to be there and shooting all these scenes. The weather wasn't too bad, not hot and cloudy without direct sunlight. I was too atmosphere...









The sun wasn't rise until 6:45, therefore the runners for Full-marathon started without seeing sunlight..


I was not one of those as 10k is my physical limit at this moment.

So I was stayed with the sign, and waited for another hour...

But finally, I realised one of the biggesdt enemy in electronic photo-shooting... battery..!
Ended up I couldn't take any photo during or after the race....
The marathon photo site hasn't update any new photo in this race yet. So, no luck to see how my face went in the finishing line..

The track was easier than HKG as it is so flat (only a bit fly-over and underpass), but my time was slower (within 56 min on my watch) than the one I did 2 years ago, possible due to lack of training and aging . ^_-
Feel good indeed as I enjoyed the process and making fun with the drinking cup I jogged pass.

Will I do it again? Possible in another route with different organisations... 'cos the pair of running shoe I am having is quite $$.. In other words, dun want to waste it..! :)

Good health, wish you all..!
