Groin Kick -Ouch

Lol this one of the most funniest of pictures I have seen on the internet for a long time now. Just got me cracking up. Thought I'll share it with the world:D

Here you go:

Old Boy - Reviewed

With blood spilling out at almost hook and crook and corner of the movie, an incredible live octopus eating feat, teeth smashing and emotional vengence intensity, Old boy easily stands out as my personal favourite movie of the year 2005. Infact one of the best in the past 5 years that I've been watching movie, with Hero standing out a close second.

I'm just following on from a previous post of mine, and this is the review of it, although I wont be including any spoilers, as I want all good cinema fans to watch this movie. I RECOMMEND it! Go watch it, if you havent yet.

I loved the movie simply because of its breathtaking camera work, perfect acting and ofcourse the intensity of the story. Once I sat, I didnt wanna move my eyes away from the screen lest I miss something. Just perfect.

All I can say is.....go watch it! (My rating 5/5)

Oman Wins - King Cup International Soccer Tournament.

Omans national squad with fresh faces and sans chief coach Srecko Juricic made a stunning start to their campaign in the 36th King’s Cup International Football Tournament notching a 2-1 win over North Korea. Information received here from Thailand, said that Oman playing the lung opener of the tournament played well to score a thrilling 2-1 win over the North Koreans yesterday.

In the match that followed, hosts Thailand struggled to a 1-1 draw against Latvia, which put Oman coached by Mohammed Juma Al Khalasi on top of the standings.

Oman, now plays hosts Thailand tomorrow in the second match of the evening and Latvia on December 28.

Looks like Oman National Team is heading into a new direction with a new coach and new style. They beat North Korea! That's great news. So we've now beaten both the korean teams. Next is Japan and Qatar. We gotta beat them! Let's wish Oman the best in the tournament and let's hope they win and gain confidence for future tournaments.

Tom Yum Goong

Yes I finally saw the movie, thanks to the P2P world! And I must say I wasnt let down. Action, Action and Tony Jaa kicks ass! Although the story and direction was a big let down, I didnt give a bollocks....Tony Jaa's action was more than enough to watch the movie alone. This guy has got to be spoken to in the same breath as Bruce Lee, Jackie Chan and Jet Li together! The first time I saw Tony Jaa was in "Ong Bak" and for that first time, I was one of his his biggest fan already! Awesome Muay Thai and ancient fighting skills.

The Story:

TOM-YUM-GOONG is the story of a young man named Kham (Tony Jaa) whose life is turned upside down when an international mafia syndicate, based in Australia , captures his two beloved elephants and smuggles them thousands of kilometers away to Sydney . The two elephants are far more than mere animals to Kham and his father. They are part of his family and were being prepared to be presented as a token of devotion to his Majesty the King of Thailand. The only way Kham can possibly save the animals is by venturing into a foreign land for the first time.

If you havent watched Onk Bak yet.....DONT WASTE ANOTHER MOMENT. Get the dvd! And then after that watch this one. Tony Jaa wont let u down.

R Kelly - Slow Wind Video

This is one of those amazing R Kelly songs, the pied piper of R'N'B. I just fell in love with this song as soon as I heard it the first time around. The song "Slow Wind" is taken from his album TP.3 Reloaded and the video is very well shot, probably shot in the Caribbean Islands. Watch it!

The Video has now been removed. Will put it back on request.

OldBoy

This is one hell of a movie that I've not yet got to watch, and I so can't wait to watch it. It's been mocking hollywood on it's toes since it won the best film at cannes. I tried all tricks on the P2P hulla, but alas could not get it. Tried torrent, too slow. Im one of those who dont bother buying DVDs since it's nothing but a complete waste of money, when free options are available! So yeah, havent been able to download the movie, but hopefully soon, I'll get hold of it.

The Story:

An average man is kidnapped and imprisoned in a shabby cell for 15 years without explanation. He then is released, equipped with money, a cellphone and expensive clothes. As he strives to explain his imprisonment and get his revenge, he soon finds out that not only his kidnapper has still plans for him, but that those plans will serve as the even worse finale to 15 years of imprisonment.


What draws me towards this or any other South Korean or Hong Kong movies, is the style and substance used in all of their work. It's like watching a painter painting a great masterpiece. To name a few would include, my favourite "The Hero starring Jet Li", "House of Flying Daggers" and ofcourse most of Jackie Chan's hong kong movies, not forgetting "Ong Bak" with Tony Ja as the new Jackie Chan on the horizon. (Just got hold of Tony Ja's new movie Tom Yum Goong and will be giving the reviews soon after I watch it.)

For now, I'll keep dreaming of Old Boy.
