It’s all about a “lads’ holiday” among four socially inept teenage boys in Malia, Greece – when one of the them got ditched by his girlfriend. And we all know what kind of getaway four 18-year-olds could be lusting after, “Two weeks of sun, sea, sex, sand, booze, sex, minge, fanny and tits. And booze. And Sex.”

However, the reality wasn’t anything close to that. It was made up of tragedy, humiliation, doomed and drunken pursuits of the female gender, dodgy dance moves and a dilapidated dorm.

My favourite scene is when the lads strode into the airport in slow motion wearing the same T-shirts with rock music in the background (like a typical Hollywood scene) but then the music came crashing down when they were told that their flight had been delayed for seven hours, and to take off their shirts. LOL.

It was a love-hate relationship with these bunch of losers, as they send you cackling with their crude humour.

A lil’ research revealed that this movie was actually a continuation of The Inbetweeners TV series. Fret not if you hadn’t watch the series before, cos’ I didn’t, and I enjoyed it nonetheless.

Catch the trailer here!

I replied “yes” to the preview simply because boyfriend was into Greek gods and I was into visuals and muscles. As bimbotic as I sound, guess who I bump into at the screening?

Cousin Peimin! She was also there with her boyfriend with probably the same reason, so I presume I’m not alone! :\

Anyway, post-movie discussion led us to conclude that Immortals lack a good storyline but is drop dead gorgeous in visuals. A quick lookup on the Twelve Olympians also reveals the historical inaccuracy of the film, because they only showed us six. I have no problems with that though. Like I said, I was solely in for an action adventure ride and Immortals didn’t disappoint. Jam packed with daredevil stunts and state-of-the-art effects enhanced in 3D, there were more than enough justification for the ticket price.

As quoted from the producers of 300 and Immortals, “We’re not playing it safe. History is not safe. Mythology is not safe. And we’re really not interested in safe.”

Thanks to United International Pictures (UIP) and omy once again for the tickets! Check out Immortals’ official site now.

It’s Johnny English….. REBORN.

I grew up watching Mr. Bean’s shows, and I believe that a lot of you, like me, also got to know Rowan Atkinson through Mr. Bean. So naturally, I was instantly drawn to this show when I knew it was coming. Thanks to United International Pictures (UIP) and omy, I got a pair of tickets to the preview!

This time, Rowan Atkinson plays the role of a improbable secret agent who is obviously oblivious of fear or danger (read: stupid). Watch him as he goes on a mission to stop a group of international assassins before they eliminate a world leader and cause global chaos.

It is a comedy spy-thriller jam-packed with Rowan Atkinson’s classic humour, action, high technology, wee bit of romance, and more humour. This guy is just so capable of making you laugh even at the most tensed moments.

If you’re looking for something lighthearted this week, don’t miss Johnny English Reborn!

Was having pretty low expectations of Bridesmaids but turns out it was one of the best comedies that I’ve seen this year. Kinda average plot with INSANE HUMOUR LEVEL. Never was there a moment during the movie where I felt bored, and never was there a chance for my best friend to doze off (because she can even fall asleep watching Transformers).

Perfect show for a movie date with your girlfriends, or even boyfriends. I swear I could hear the roaring laughters of the two guys beside me the whole time. And it’s not really just about humour, there are also meaningful elements of love, life, and friendship which I like.

Thanks to Shaw and omy for the tickets!

Well, it had been a close fight, but the judges came to a decision and the winner has emerged.

Guess who won? ME ME ME!!!!

Yah, I wished. Anyway, that was my submission for the contest but I didn’t get shortlisted. *Runs to one corner and emo. Okay, kidding.

Back to the design contest, we have 10 finalists, and I’ll take you through all 10 artworks (provided by Kit Kat^®). Forgive me if my two cents’ worth get critical, because it’s an occupational disease and I can’t quite help it.

Artist: Abu Suphian.
The office buildings in the blue area portrays stress and probably Monday Tuesday everyday blues, and the sudden breakthrough in warm colours and representation of activities in a happy face brings out the life. However, the overall design feels a little abrupt to me.

Artist: Chuan Chee Sing.
Simply toss back your hair and go with the music. The idea is simple and straightforward, but it is relevant because I believe a lot of us do this very often, even on the MRTs when you dance your soul out in your mind.

Artist: Rukkiye.
Illustrated after the metaphor, “smell the roses”, this piece gives off a sense of tranquility and a scent of floral perfume I don’t know why. A very feminine piece.

Artist: Chua Ai Ni.
Oh, a mobile circus! I want to jump on board already. The welcoming colours and theme instantly brought me back to my childhood days where I wished I could “fly” like everyone in the circus.

Artist: Julienne Tan.
Abstract looking, and it took me a while to figure out. As explained by Julienne, “With my imagination, I can find new worlds in simple things once again. A puddle becomes an ocean, the sky or an entire astronomical study.” Sometimes, it’s all in the mind. Change the way you see things and you can discover joy in the stickiest situations.

Artist: Joan Chong.
I love the concept of this – lifting off in the skies with balloons, a booster, camera, and literally birds’ eye view. Capturing beautiful moments while traveling is definitely THE ultimate break for me.

Artist: Lorraine Tan.
I see all things random in a whimsical world, and I think this is what it should be like when one sets his or her mind free, because imagination knows no limits.

Artist: Leon Yeo.
I can’t help but notice how “stock vector” looking this artwork is, and the use of a disco ball seems seems typical IMO. Good effort on the use of red though.

Artist: Joanna Leong.
My personal favourite, and yep, she got my vote! Defying gravity from the reality world, Planet Lollywood is a fantasy land filled with chocolate and candies – perfect for a sweet tooth like me.

Artist: Wei Hong.
Last but not least, an illustration done by a dad featuring his son and his favourite animals attempting to snatch his favourite chocolate bar while asleep. Hmmm, sweet dreams or nightmares?

That’s all! Now, it’s your turn to participate! Simply VOTE to send your favourite artwork to Kit Kat^® Stardom, and you might win yourself a $50 Kit Kat^® hamper!

Voting ends 31^st July, and official results will be announced on 5^th August, so hurry!
