Movie - The Taking of Pelham 123

A day before Mrs Sam reaches Malaysia from Korea (Cheong Pyeong), he wanted to watch a movie as a single-lonely guy.

Venue: GSC, Mid Valley
Date: 5th August 2009; Wednesday
Time: 9pm

Originally we wanted to watch G.I Joe cause it was 8.30pm (its earlier) but...
Its was a Wednesday where ticket price is cut to half. RM14 divide 2 [you do the math]
So before reaching mid valley Close to 8pm (we were rushing!)
My head was fill with my nonsense/useless/overly reacted imagination of the situation @ GSC

"Long line (cause it wed ticket cheap and its at nite!), Definately no ticket (since GI Joe was like new), and we are gonna waste our time there...... no movie..."

I kept saying to to God "Let there be movie to enjoy~"

Honestly when we reached the place (we park the car across the road @ jusco side - long walk =.=) i was seriously surprise~

Good news: There was barely no line!
Bad news: GI Joe seat left 2 (very ngam~) but its the front front row =.=

In the end we decided on Pelham 123. Which is @ 9m (while waiting went to MPH and bought a book!)

The Taking of Pelham 123 - Review

This movie is full of action and honestly whe it is rated PG18 i was expecting something more...exposed???
This movie is definately not a love movie. It does not even have love essence. Except for one couple who was snogging each other through the internet =.= other than that ziltch! (which i totally love~)
I would say the reason its rated PG18, is because 1) its Malaysia~ 2) its because of the foul words which they(m'sia) muted the majority of it 3) because of all the shooting people John Travolta did which was cool~ not that i liked seeing people being killed but hey he's the bad guy. If he don't kill someone how is he gonna be one awesome bad guy?
Anyway, this movie has 2 major actors. Denzel Washington and John Travolta. 2 great actors. One on the good side the other on the baddie side. Both were awarded @ Academy Awards more than once!
This movie revolves around just the both of them, so i can't said who is the main actor. Both are the major ones who makes the movie super intense.

Pelham 123 is a named of a train that John/Rydar and his minions raided. Holding 17 hostages and demanding New York city to pay them the ransom of USD 10 million. Communicating with John/Rydar is Denzel/Garber who only Rydar will talk to. There were lots of action packed when the police were transporting the USD10 million from the bank to the train in time.

I always wonder why is John Travolta akways the bad guy but after watching his peformance in Pelham 123, i finally understood. John really was immersed in the character. you can tell. His acting and expression was splendidly expressed and not to mentioned his lines were awesome (i give credit that to the script writers)

Denzel Washington in this movie... i can't really say he's the total 100% good guy after all he did take a bribe but then he invested it all to his daughters. His character, Garber Walter is truly a guy with guts. Being in the train thing for years he really is a person who loves trains XD. But then Garber character really shown out with the help of the bad guy. Honestly, i truly felt Garber won't be exciting without Rydar.

Other roles in the movies are seriously minor ones even without them they can't really influence the intensity and the awesomeness of the movie. But they are still considered important.They are the ones who is in between the good and the bad.... like the mayor who really is a people person and yet the citizens of NY hated him. Garber's boss... the jack*** who neither good nor bad, he really dislike Garber and puts him in a difficult position and yet still have a reason to....

Anyway, overall this movie have been totally great with action packed and cheeky lines and the intensity between the good guys and the bad guys....

fyi, Rydar's personality still even after movie still remains to me a mysterious aura....

i give this movie 8/10 stars

Dae Mo Nim's words

Last Night while thinking of doing something

::idea::
Lets read~

So i went to the bookshelf and look for a book.
Then at the corner, sandwhich between 2 huge book lies a small blue ultra slim book called
"2nd Generation's Beautiful Culture"

Its the 3rd vol of DMN's speaches.

It really helps a lot to me.
It shows many thing need to improve and do.
DMN event teaches 2nd gen how to be a good child.

A quote from the book;

God said that 2nd gen is the flower of all flowers. The are the flower of all flowers that were born without original sin. He said that "the 2nd generation is the life of all lives. They are the love of all loves and the jewel of all jewels"

there is 11 point that needs to be engraved into our hearts

1)The value of 2nd generation
2)Build a True Family
3)Never Drink, Smoke, and use Drugs
4)Don't look, touch or take and eat
5)Our culture centered on God
6)Don't abuse public money
7)Don't abuse people's heart
8)Life of attendance to True Parents
9)Culture of reporting to True Parents and your parents
10)Don't tell lies
11)Let's keep promises we make with God

To me these thing are like the commandments in my live.

What strike me the most the the 9th point.
the culture of reporting.
It is utmost important to trust God, True Parents and our parents.
As God too wants and needs someone who he can trust.
So in order to keep a close relationship with Gd, True Parents and our parents always do reports.
Like when we are awake in the morning,
first greet God and True Parents
"Ah~ i had a wonderful sleep and am awake now. Good morning Heavenly Father and True Parents"
then you greet your parents,
minor thing like reporting small matters is a good thing as it helps to reflects upon ourselves if we did anything bad today. Self reflection helps us in becoming a person of good qualities...

Experiencing KK

Ok...

Like 3 days ago (wednesday) i wne to meet yui cause its the day i get my Yukata~~~
So i decided to take this time to stay oer her house and also watch movie ----> Harry Potter!

Yui invited 2 of her frinds. KK and Ben (nice to meet you~...ben)
Ben a 20++ year old guy who is really nice and he can speak japanese~
KK akak Khareeza. Yui's erh... ex school mate who studies in the UK now and is in malaysia cause of summer break.

So... I was totally the alien there... hey! no prob i got my yukata~
But seriously. I heard alot of kk from people and i wanted to know so i 'observed' her and seriously!
I am sooo speechless...
She's in short a s***!

She who met Ben for the 2nd time that day was.... literally ALL over ben.
Sure the stories i heard of her hugging guys and over reacted whenever she sees a guy...
I never thought of it as serious!

In any case. So Kk was all oer ben seriously.
I couldn't even the time of intro like
"Hello~ Im Christine yui's friend. Nice to meet you,ben!"
Seriously =.=
In the end of the day i didnt even know ben's name until i asked Yui and he also didn't know my name till he asked yui. No ones fault there...

Khareeza. A Chinese who looks like a indian malay.
Talks non stop. Never seen someone talk so much in my life.
Miss know it all.
Definitely very very cain type =.=

Sigh... better stop. Not nice to talk about people....
So, Ben was nice. tho he thought i was seriously quiet.
Well... i didnt have the chance to talk right??? kk was talking non-stop and she even cuts my conversation when there is one.
She's the limelight....
But hopefully we'll meet again ^_^
=.= minus kk of course =.=

but in any case.
Ben have been a real gentleman ^_^v

Sorry Sorry

I know its been centuries since last posted.
Words cannot describe how busy i have been not only in terms physically but also spiritually.
Right now i am standing in between FFWPU and UPF.
Honestly really i find it awesome- to be able to gain new experience and learn more and to be able to be some help to others.

To be able to be productive. That is what i want to invest.
But things sometimes... most of the time can be confusing.
Not because I am helping and investing to nothingness but because i don't feel it.

Do you get it?
Ever felt that you don't have the it factor?
Doing something and feel not appreciated?
Feeling not really connected to people?
Its a bit of what i have been feeling.

Helping in events and co-coordinating Youth Ministry all this requier outer and inner energy.
Doing 2 things and rearranging my schedule to fit it all so that i can focus it one at a time.
That needs double the energy.
Most of the time i find my life full of dull colours.

Its the same i guess, a full cycle.
Me looking for something - tried doing it - ending becoming dull...
One thing is that i realize more about myself.
And i gotta improve myself more. Learn more.
Life to me is such a blur still...
Really... i don't really know how to describe it.

Being me.
I feel through all these years...
The more i grow...
The more i feel....
The people i know who used to have so many hopes on me looks dissapointed.

I KNOW!!!
I know i am a dissapoinment to this nation.
Not being able to grow beautifully and greatly.
Not being able to be greater.
Not being able to be very well connected to everyone.

That's why i want to improve.
I know i am truly slow ....
All i can say is sorry...

Truly I am so sorry...

I am sorry for being the way i am...
i am sorry for being a very bad leader...
i am sorry for everything i have done....

i have to find my complete self.
So that, other 2nd gen would be better...
research, that is what is need for youth ministry...
trust, love and care as well...

That is all i can say for now...
a alitlle part of my heart.
