10 Things I Hate About You (1999,  PG-13)
10 Things I Hate About You 5.0 Stars
The first time I saw this movie I never ever forgot about it. Never forgot the love I had for Patrick Verona ie. Heath Ledger. It took me years to find the movie, and I still love it the second time, and the subsequent times after that. Man I just love this movie to death.

Formula is just right. It is a teen comedy that's pretty predictable but it is by far the most intelligent one (the main characters that carry the movie, the supporting ones are still pretty shallow), but I absolutely love the dialogue, the wit and the sarcasm was just the way I like it.

then you have Heath Ledger singing.
always ALWAYS makes the fangirl in me giggle hysterically.

Amelie (Le Fabuleux destin d'Amélie Poulain) 5.0 Stars
Such a simple story of a girl finding love. Audrey Tautou is absolutely charming as Amelie. I just love this French film, I'm sure anyone else will! But you need patience in redaing thru the subs, not unless you speak french.

I lost all feeling in my arms when I watched this. Funny enough, I watched this with a friend on Valentines Day, it is about love of family after all. haha.

Superb direction. It was absolutely sick and twisted, which makes it so damn good.

Little Miss Sunshine 4.0 Stars
I'd say this movie was a little overrated, but I did enjoy it. It was a family movie, just not for kids. XD

I enjoyed all of the major casts' performances but I have to explicitly say that I really really liked the character connection of Paul Dano and Steve Carell.

What's weird was I found the other Little Miss Sunshine contestants (you know, the ones that looked like mini-me(s) of hollywood plastic surgery patients) more disturbing than Olive's striptease. XD

It wasn't what I expected, actually, it was better. Made me laugh.

Visuals were great, pretty vibrant colors. (This is actually the first video I uploaded in my Ipod nano 3G, just to test it out, and despite the small screen, I really thought the cinematography was excellent.)

The story is quite simple enough. But the characters were almost polar opposites, yet it wasn't weird seeing them becoming friends.

Saibogujiman kwenchana (I'm a Cyborg, But That's OK) 4.0 Stars
from the title, to the poster, you can tell right off the bat that this is not your normal movie. and when you start watching it, it just pretty much shouts WEIRD.

and I expected it to make sense as the movie progresses and though it did (somehow) it wasn't the in a way that I expected.

But of course this movie is bound to be that way. It's directed by Park Chan-Wook. duh.

Very interesting film, about a love story blossoming in a mental asylum. Beautiful visuals. And for a first time big screen actor, Rain was great. I'd recommend this movie, but it's certainly not everyone's cup of tea.
