Watched Tekken today with Michelle :) It was exciting because Tekken was a childhood ps1 & ps2 game I used to play with my brother and guy cousins. Yes, I practically grew up with the play station and gameboy like how they did. Thing was, I thought that the movie was going to be another letdown like D.O.A., but it turned out to be quite good cause there were barely any changes made to the characters' appearances (though Jin's hair should be spiked up a lil more) and the cast have perfected their fighting moves to mimic the ones in the game.
Yoshimitsu used to be my favourite character because he was one of the strongest. I would use him incessantly when I had to virtually fight against the boys, and the move that I would always perform would be the one where he levitates in a sitting position and spins round with his sword. In the movie however, Yoshimitsu was easily defeated, and Mishima didn't really get a chance to display his skills. That was the movie's only flaw I guess.
Rating : 7/10
P.S., My bro is now playing the latest version of the game on PS3 =D
Verdict : RDJ. ScarJo. Loaded machines. This movie just screams the word sexy. Nuff said. Rating : 7.5 Venue : Summit GSC, tics @ RM6 (student price) Company : Uni mates =)
Verdict : One word. Awesome.
Rating : 9.5/10 (-0.5 cause as usual, in HK shows, the enemies attack you one by one while the other 'konco-koncos' are busy dancing in the background with their weapons)
One of the actors captured my attention from the very start of the movie. The guy who played Ip Man's first deciple bore an uncanny resemblance to my China tour guide, Louis =P The choreography was so good. I don't think I've been this obsessed with a movie since 1997's Titanic (and I was barely 8 years old at that time) ...A funny thing happened after the movie though. I decided to 'wing chun' one of my friends on the shoulder by hitting him repeatedly and jumping about like a monkey ... In the process, the strap of my bag (containing my laptop) broke off and the whole thing crashed downwards. The only thing that got wing chun-ed in the end was my big toe.
