The Dark Knight Rises

This is gonna be my first movie review in this blog. Actually, I have planned to do this long time ago but I'm just waiting for the right moment. When 'The Dark Knight Rises' came out, I was thinking "Why not make a movie review on an epic-ly phenomenal franchise superhero film. The movie is so epic that people thought they hold real guns and shoot everyone else in a theatre is like waiting for Batman to save them. For those who have not yet watched the movie PLEASE DO NOT CONTINUE spoilers alert.


The movie begins set in time 8 years after joker was put away and 2-face under everyone's perception that he is the hero of Gotham City. Bane, the badass appears 5 minutes into the movie as a kidnap victim (I wonder how he got there? Don't people already realise it's him when they take him prisoner? I mean, come on, that mask is huge and obvious). However, I did like how Bane crash the plane like it's from a Bond movie.

Meanwhile, while everyone is rejoicing, our main, Bruce Wayne is sulking over his death of his ex-girlfriend that died 8 years ago. Oh come on, it's not professional man, everyone would have thought you're the Batman that failed to save your girlfriend and killed that 2-face guy. Anyway, on with the review, besides everything I mention above the transition from Dark Knight to Dark Knight rises was smooth. The storyline overall is good although screen time is 164 minutes but it doesn't feel like it, this I have to give credits to Chirstopher Nolan for able to do this almost every movie he made.

The main crisis however did clash with Iron Man's plot. The one where they discovered a reactor on 'clean' energy. Hello?? You found the reactor like Iron Man, Bruce I got 6 words for you!!!


Imagine Batman suit would be able to detonate Gotham City with it's core. End of story. Imagine Batman introduce it to the city, people will join forces and patch the security and safety of that reactor long time ago. But no you wanna take it with your flying Bat and go Boom!!! So that Robin can come out and play with you.

Conclusion, Dark Knight rises is an awesome movie. I would give 4 out of 5 star for this movie.

 It really shows Batman fallen and rise again. Catwoman being evil and become good for the sake of Gotham (or maybe Batman). However, why it lacked one star is because unlike the Joker, I don't seem to have a sense of fear for the villian Bane or the girl he protected (SPOILERS!!!!). Everytime I watch Joker act, I don't know when he wants to kill someone. Bane is sooooooo predictable. One question, where is the Joker??

Aluba

Image
For some of you not living in Asia, you might not know this but Aluba is a famous 'offering' one MAN has to 'deal' with. This normally occurs to male high school students in Asia and not recommend to perform on a female. Origins of the name came from Japan, other parts of Asia called it differently like Aruba in Taiwan and Happy Corner in Hong Kong. I'm surprised that they even has a wiki page for this (if you can read mandarin) Here comes the definition: Aluba is a student prank where you need to gather at least 4 person on pounce on a particular victim. Grab hold of his arms and legs. Spread his legs wide and ramp his groin against something thin, hard, rod-like and able to take a beating of the groin like a lamp post, a supporting cylinder wall or even the edge of a door. Repeat the 'ramping' process until all of you (except the victim) are satisfied. Sometimes the offering does not ends here, you may offer the victim to your "Holy" ro

Sun Tzu and The Army of Concubines

This is actually a moral story which I think everyone can adapt this... Not by it's violence but similar situation. For thos e who knows who is Sun Tzu and concubines then you may skip this paragraph. Sun Tzu, an ancient Chinese military general and strategist who is traditionally believed to have authored The Art of War , an influential ancient Chinese book on military strategy considered to be a prime example of Taoist thinking. Today we can still see many people using it culturally, politically or simply for job purposes like sealing a deal or getting higher chances for promotion. Concubines are meant as...well... wives in a not so official sort of way. Their purpose is to entertain the emperor and fulfill the emperor's sexual pleasure. In the Wu nation alone stands 180 concubines and the concubines who manage to persuade the king to sleep with her for the night gain popularity points in the palace. As the popularity points rose higher, you're more respectable by ot

So High vs. Sohai

Yes! First test 1 paper is over and inspirations starts flowing in again. After having read one of my good friends blog post. I realised that Malaysia and Singapore have many differences as well. In Singapore, you're not given a chance to speak your own preferred language like Hokkien. However, in Malaysia, it is not that I have no one to speak Hokkien dialect to but the thing is when you go Kuantan, most of the Chinese there speaks Cantonese and this became very difficult for me and my friend to order our food. We sounded weird...well... mostly not me (Thank you TVB drama) with our Hokkien mix English mix Cantonese words that came out from my mouth. From there, I have decided to put my best effort to learn how to speak fluent Cantonese in my 4 years in UMP. So, why the title gotta do with this. Well, first of all, my new friend here always annoy me with these words "I'm so high"... Ya, "geli" and annoying but then again it really make me reflect upon what i
