Da Vinci Code


The movie was quite slow... but I liked the intertwined "past" & "present" scenes when Robert Langdon & Leigh Teabing were telling Sophie Neveu about the history of the Holy Grail, the Knights Templar... so beautiful!!! Ahh..... how I wish I could go back in time to look at what's happening. The scenery was breathtaking! I thought the Rosslyn Chapel was simple yet magnificent.

I thought Tom Hanks didn't do a good job as Robert Landgon... hmm... dunno why... I've always liked Tom Hanks. But in this movie, I think the role doesn't suit him. I think Sir Ian McKellen did a very good job! : )

I also liked the part when the police were chasing after Landgon and Sophie and they were in this mini "smart car". The car really was compact and agile!! It was on reverse while the police were chasing, and it managed to squeeze into the tiny space (but the side mirror broke) created by the 2 large trucks. Simply beautiful! How I wish I own a car like dat!!!

I am glad they didn't take all the details in the book and made it into a movie or else I would be bored to tears... Saw the trailer for "Silent Hill" and thought it was so CHILDISH! haha... horror flick? Nah..... the scenes made me feel like laughing... cos the trailers showed everything you need to know about the movie! And its not scary at all! Chey!

I am looking forward to my spa treat this weekend : ) The one which I won from my company x'mas dinner last year. I will be going with my sis-in-law 'cos we had intended to use that for our birthday celebration in April. But because of her arm infection, we had to postpone till June. Its going to expire on 22 June anyway. Hope the spa and hotel stay would be enjoyable... cos on Sunday, I have to go and helpout at my brother's stall... Eeeekk..... imagine the relaxing spa, and then later reek of the smell of curry......................... ARGH.....

Juzbe is OUT!

Last night's results show was really 'gan cheong-ing'...

The best groups obviously scored the lowest votes from the audience!! Mi Lu Bing & Soul scored the highest at 37 marks, Qinobe got only 34 (I think) and Juzbe got 32.4. I must admit Juzbe's rendition of "Ye Lai Xiang" is quite bad last night, and when Qinobe & Juzbe were the only 2 bands standing, I felt for sure that Juzbe was going to be kicked out.

True, Qinobe is very predictable... but I think they are quite marketable. Their music is very much like Linkin Park, Limp Bizkit, where the noiser they are, the 'higher' the audience.

I liked Mi Lu Bing. I was so nervous for them last night. The 3 young lads are really talented. Soul was quite good last night too. Must admit the dance steps last night for "Da Yan Jing" was really cute! and the fashion was really retro!!

The office is very quite today... Jenn, Becks & Junie are all on MC. Boss came in late because she's on AM leave, Kristl flew off to Europe yesterday. Bet she's enjoying herself thoroughly there right now!!! I am waiting for my turn to come!!!

Really need a break... but I don't want a Kit Kat : P
