Seven Pounds and Red Cliff II



Seven Pounds is a touching story about how Will Smith sets out to help 7 strangers in difficult circumstances out of his way. Shall not reveal the reason behind doing so cos that's the part that really matters...

Always like catching his shows because the scripts he chooses are not just for block-busters, eye candy but that there are usually stories that captures the human soul and makes audiences realise that there's more to life than it really is. Do catch it while you can!

Also caught Red Cliff II (Sorry Val!) with GY and Ivan at the Cathay. Cathay's been one of my fav places to catch partly because they have great seats and there's my fav adidas store as well. The staff there kinda know me by now because of my frequent visits. Heh~

Red Cliff II's a great finisher to the first part which I'm sure left people wanting their money back after seeing "To be continued..." at the end. This is where all the action comes in, with generals pitting their wits against each other. (The bet between Zhuge Liang and Zhou Yu is quite interesting). Putting the warping of the original story aside, the plot's decent for a newbie to The Three Kingdom Classics, but now i'm sure these classics have certainly gained more fans than before, till they find out that the movie's different from the actual story!
