Battle of Wits

Sunday, December 10, 2006

Caught the movie "A Battle of Wits" 12hours ago. Exactly. Supposedly, Friday is spent studying with Christina while the guys play soccer, but I just simply couldn't resist the desire not to study that day, hence, I gave the suggestion of going for the movie, DeJa Vu. Have no idea why we ended with A Battle of Wits --- a mandarin movie.

Hereby, I'm proud to announce that that's the second mandarin movie which I caught in the theatre. Hmmm, actually after figuring that out, I think I ought to include the other 2mandarin movie --- I Not Stupid and I Not Stupid Too. That makes this the fourth then. Well, we watched it @Junction 8. Been long since I last caught a movie there. Let's see, the last movie there was Ju-On, with Azhar after CME exam. Hahahahaha, and as usual, I was freezing in the theatre.

My Two-Cents Worth:
I think that at times people just make themselves sound so nice and generous and as if they are the ones who don't mind dying when they say, "I don't want anything in return, at all." Come on, human beings are just human beings afterall. An intention is an intention, a motive. In that show, the male lead wanted to spread "universal love" (and at the same time, gather people, rather influence, to spread the msg), but he said he wanted nothing.
Ha, well, that kinda sound a little pun-ny and extreme. To be more objective, it's a worth-watch movie as long as you don't mind parts of the philosophical talks that they engaged in. Inevitably, the male lead is so so so so smart lah. It's like ohhhh, who can ever think of that. The strategies that he employed on handling the attacks. COOL.
2-and-a-half to 3 stars, i'd rate.
