[Movie Review] God of War (NC16)

Starring martial arts legends like Vincent Zhao (best known for playing Chinese folk hero, Wang Fei Hung), Sammo Hung (Ip Man 2) and Yasuaki Kurata (Fist of Legend), this film is ready to impress. God of War is the second movie that I have watched this week involving pirates. The first movie was the blockbuster, Pirates of the Caribbean. I have to say, God of War is as exciting as Pirates of the Caribbean and should stay on the ‘To Watch List’! The story sets in Ming Dynasty during the 16 th century. For months, the Chinese army led by Commander Yu (Sammo Hung) had repeatedly failed to defeat the Japanese pirates who have taken over Cengang in Zhejiang. The attacks by the pirates were analysed and planned out by the astute samurai leader, Kumasawa (Kurata Yasuaki). The situation remains bleak for the Chinese, until a newly promoted shrewd and strong-principled general came along. General Qi Jiguang (Vincent Zhao) pushed the authority to allow him to build and train up a...

The Landmark – Halal Buffet!

As its name suggests – The Landmark is a gathering place that is hard to miss. Situated at level 5 of Bugis Village Hotel, it is 5-minutes’ walk from Bugis MRT and serves up the fine flavours of international cuisine with Western, Asian, Indian and Mediterranean influences. Diners may choose to dine indoors in the exquisite dining hall catered for large groups and families, alfresco by the poolside or at the cosy romantic balcony, set against the majestic Sultan Mosque. Known as an award-winning Halal dining venue, with credits to its two celebrity chefs, Chef Amri and Chef Bob, it is no surprise that the restaurant draws a crowd and largely Muslim diners. While we thought, we were early for the 6.30pm dinner buffet, there was already a line of diners waiting to enter the restaurant. Advanced booking to reserve a table will be highly recommended. If you prefer less crowd and a view while savouring your meal, you may like to opt for alfresco dining by the pool or f...

[Movie Review] Love off the Cuff

Have you reached a point in a relationship where you are pondering, “Is he/she right for me?” Here’s a refreshing and excitingly unpredictable romantic movie that makes you wonder if the 7 years’ relationship between Jimmy and Cherie can be salvaged. The movie is filled with scenes of tears and laughter. When the show begins, you may wonder if you stepped into the correct cinema as it started off with a horror beginning. Yes, just like a horror movie, but it is quickly continued with a funny, cute and light-hearted scene. Just like many couples, Jimmy and Cherie are in a long-term committed relationship. Though they have been living with each other for some time, their relationship was encountered with strains from external factors such as Jimmy’s childhood female best friend who’s returning from Canada and asked to stay in their apartment and Cherie’s philandering father who is marrying a young girl. Though Cherie seemed like a matured-thinking and independent lady,...
