I LOVE FROZEN MOVIE!

Assalammualaikum and Happy day!



Hye peeps! Though Frozen Movie has been released in cinema for the last two months ago, I still wanted to update about it. Even now, I am still crazy about the movie and the soundtracks in the movie. Can't deny, there's still a child inside me. I have gone through a hard time just to get a ticket to watch the movie a month after it was being released (always full seated at all the time, sigh~ even weekdays forgetting that I have to compete with the kids which they were on school holiday) and finally got to watch it alone in not so empty cinema in January 2014! Yoooosh....

Below are my reviews about this movie which I rated for 4/5.


Frozen is something new for Disney: A movie about sisterhood. (Well, newish after Lilo & Stitch). The two main characters are Anna (Kristen Bell) and Elsa (Idina Menzel), the former a delightfully weird princess the latter a Queen who’s suffered isolation her whole life because it’s thought—first by her parents, then by her—that being around other people will make it impossible to control her ice bending. 

Watching the trailer it’s easy to assume that Elsa is the villain of the story, a sorcerer-gone-bad who has to be convinced by her pure hearted sister, Anna to return to the light side of the Force. But that’s not how it is at all. Elsa is the protagonist of her own story, one in which well-meaning parents taught her to rein in emotion for her own good. Frozen got on my good side by doing several things I didn’t expect (there was a plot twist about three-quarters of the way through that made everyone in the theater gasp), and the way it portrays family is one of them: Elsa and Anna’s parents aren’t evil. They’re not the stepmother from Snow White. They genuinely think they’re doing what’s best for both their children. 

It’s an unusual (but welcome) message to put in a Disney film: Sometimes your parents mean well, but each person has to take charge of their own life and decide what’s best for them. It’s similar to what we saw in Brave (Love the movie too), but it takes it further. Merida eventually brings her parents around, but the legacy that Anna and Elsa’s parents leave in their daughters’ lives is physical and emotional isolation. For a Disney movie, it’s pretty dark.
 
Though, we can have a movie about sisterhood, but there still has to be a romance. Frozen is absolutely a step in the right direction, but I hope the studio will one day reach a point where they regularly make movies where the Princess doesn’t end up with her One True Love by the time the credits roll (there's a twist stories about the romance in the end of the movie). But Frozen is a good film, and diversity and/or a lack of “Protagonist finds the man she wants to spend the rest of her life with!!!!” would’ve given it that boost to “Frozen is a gift to humanity, let me snuggle it to my bosom and love it forever.”

The was funny part where Olaf, a snowman that created by Elsa desperately to experience himself in a summer and nothing is possible with the magic, he able to make his wish came true. And how this movie ended, " an act of a true love can melt the frozen heart"! This love quote is quite applicable for me in process to find a true love, wahahaha! Feeling like I am the frozen heart princess.. (hiks)

It is the best for you to watch it your own. May be your reviews will be different with mine.


This soundtrack of the Frozen movie, Let it Go! is so inspiring song. If u feeling down, serve the song to your ears. You will get to be positive in no time.

Reviews on Istanbul Aku Datang!

Assalammualaikum dan selamat beristirehat, peeps!

Last Saturday night (17hb nov), aku and member aku tetiba buat ad hoc plan nak tengok muvie after grab our dinner. Macam ada tiket kan tengok malam weekend, walk-in beli tiket kat kaunter plak tu. Sesungguhnya aku memang suka buat idea gila last minute ni.  Even dalam study and research aku pon, most of the time last minute did work out well for me. Sebab tu, kalau bab2 last minute punya kerja ramai campak kat aku dengan reason aku species yang flexible leh tolerate ngan kerja-kerja last minute (kepala hangguk kowg la). Trust me, don't follow my foot steps, it will turn out disaster if u can't manage well with last minute thing. Not many people are gifted to do so. 

Okay back into the base story, at 1st we decided to watch paranormal activity 4. Al-maklumlah, malam2 ni baru ada feel tengok horror movie kan, pastu tidur malam nak berteman (alahai..pompuan..pompuan). Tapi showtimes dia tak de yang fixed dengan masa kteowg yang duduk kat kolej ni (ada curfew, tak boleh balik lambat sangat). Sekali tengok, "Istanbul Aku Datang" dah keluar la kat movie. Sememangnya, movie ni memang dah ada dalamt target list movie yang wajib tonton. Haha, my feveret artis Lisa Surihani and Beto Kusyairi, digandingkan as main actors in this film. There were also special appearance from Tomok and Aizat in this film as support actors.



If you yet want to watch this film, here is the trailer!


Synopsis:
Dian (Lisa Surihani), a sweet and naive blogger, travels along the way to Istanbul in hopes to convince her medical student boyfriend to propose her within her language short courses duration. She did a lots of tactics so that Azad will soon fall and propose her. She has to search a room to let because it was not proper for a muslim boy and girl stayed in the same house. While she was desperately searching a room, luckily she found the local guy who claimed that his father had an apartment that will satisfied Dian's need. Unknowningly, she had been tricked, Dian's apartment already leades to quirky and shy artist, Harris (Beto). Despite the unwanted roomate, Dian tries to make the most out of sticky situation and conceal it from Azad. But soon after Azad finds out, he insult her without a brief explanation and leave her. Dian has to decide either she should run and fight for Azad after insulting her or stay and discover if Harris is the one who meant for her.

This film was directed by a young director, Bernard Chauly with cooperation of Grand Brilliance and Redfilms. People who seek for a different and fresh romantic comedy, this is the film that you should watch. The storyline was simple but yet give a big impact in the ending. A credits should be given to main actors and supporting actors who has gave their efforts in acting to make the film going real-life.I should give 4 out of 5 stars for this film. This is one of the proves that our local film-maker evolves a lot in producing their master-piece that can be comparable with the outsiders film-maker. 

" Bila dua hati dah sebati, is susah untuk dipisahkan"
- a line from Istanbul Aku Datang! that make me thinking and thinking-

Okay, peeps! Have a happy and great weekend. Stay peace and dont forget to pray for Gaza and all muslims so that we can be strong in and out under HIS protection!

Just for gag: Some of the lines in the scripts banyak gak kasi sentap untuk couple yang bercinta. Hiks! I love the sarcasm though!

Ice Age 4..Awesome!

Assalammualaikum dan Selamat bersahur, kalian ^__^!

Pejam celik pejam celik, dah hampir setengah bulan umat Islam menunaikan ibadat berpuasa pada bulan Ramadhan. Secara tidak langsung ini memberi peringatan bahawa masih berbaki 15 hari lagi bagi umat Islam masih berkesempatan meningkatkan ibadat terhadap Allah Taala supaya mendapat keredhaanNya. Remember this, "whose beginning is Mercy, whose middle is forgiveness and the whose end is freedom from fire". Jangan lepaskan peluang keemasan ini terutama pada 15 malam terakhir bulan ni kerana terdapat satu malam yang sangat istimewa iaitu Malam Lailatulqadar. Insyallah, kita akan menjadi muslimin dan muslimah yang lebih baik dari masa ke semasa.

Kowang dah tengok movie Ice Age 4: Continental Drift (2012) yang released on 13 July? Agak musykil di situ macam mana aku boleh lagging pasal muvie ni dah keluar rupanya sebab kurang feedback pasal movie. Mungkin disebabkan aku kurang mengikuti perkembangan semasa atau sibuk dengan persiapan puasa (macam la aku ada family nak buat persiapan berbagai kan..APTB). Finally dapat jugak tengok walaupun boleh dikatakan agak ketinggalan. Better late than never (Batman pun x dpt tgk lagi :'(..huhuhu).

For those who are not watching this movie yet or don't have any planning to do this weekends, I'm highly recommend you all to watch this movie! Sure, you won't be disappointed. Great opening followed by non-stop humor and hilarious continuity of the adventure cartoon features till ending. All of the cartoon features played their strong character to make this movie one of those relaxed and yet super watching with worthwhile value massages delivery (family bonding, friendship, love, teamwork and harmony living though have different backgrounds or species, survivorship on nature disaster and etc). Suitable watching for all age groups. So, parent out there, take this opportunities to bring your children and had quality time with your family.

The movie starred by Ray Romano (Manny), John Leguizamo (Sid), Denis Leary (Diego), Queen Latifah (Ellie), Keke Palmer (Peaches), Jennifer Lopez (Shira), Nicki Minaj (Steffie) and more talented actor/actress

I found this the most funny and hilarious when Louis which seem to be puzzled about the cheerful+fearless+possum Crash and Eddie (twin opposum brothers) who seem very happy though they are facing the critical problem of continental drift, then Louis asked them:
Louis: Why are so happy though in this situation?
Crash and Eddie: Should we tell him our secrets? (they nodded to each other, then continued). we are happy because we are very, very....stupid! 
(LOL)

Okay, guys, wish u have a great and fun time watching this movie. For all muslims, don't skip to perform your sunat Terawih prayer although you watch it at night! Stay peace and happy! 
with a lots of love ^_______^

My Daddy, My Hero!

Assalammualaikum and salam 1Malaysia, guys ^_~

Yehaaa, it will be my record if i successfully update this entry within 11 hours since my last update. Last Monday, i've been watching a western movie entitled "Happy Feet 2", a continuity of its 1st movie (i didn't watch its 1st movie but still you can follow the story of its 2nd movie). I bet the 1st movie was about a life of penguin called Mumble which been alienated because of its different appearance from its species due to unintended mistakes by Mumble's daddy accidentally drops the egg (Mumble), briefly exposing it to the freezing Antartic temperatures. As the result, the egg hatched a penguin that has blue eyes, everlasting down feathers and a terrible singing voice (every penguin sings an unique song called "heart song" to attract a mate). However, Mumble has a talent that no other penguin ever seen before, the tap dancing. Interested to know more about this, you can google it and many results will appear. What i can finalize from its 1st movie, every single small thing to big life creature was born with its own unique and special features or characters to complete the cycle of life. So, why be bother if you are not perfect, being perfect was not all about for being great, hehehe.


Okay, enough the story of that, let's focus on the 2nd movie. The movie is about, the heir legacy of Mumble+Gloria=Erik (copy-cat of his dad's appearance), reluctant to try dancing as most of the penguins in Emperor land did. Erik's 1st attempt at dancing embarrassed and outcast him from the rest of the penguins. So, here the part where the conflicts begin where Mumble as a dad having a dad-son talk to convince  and motivate Erik (it's not easy being a dad, dough!! It was cute somehow when a man try to butter up his child=added-value-character). But Erik decided to follow Ramon (another penguins who felt himself don't belong in Emperor Land) to pursue its own dream and calling, accompanied by his friends, Boadicia and Atticus. The went to Adelia Land where they met Sven (penguins that can fly...actually he is a bird who really-look-a-like a penguin called a puffin), who became a fraud and false idol in Adelia Land including to Erik and his friends. At the same time, Mumble try to find his lost son by tracking the footsteps along the way to Adelia Land. Eager to know more? Hahaha, go and spend time with your family, kids or friends to watch the movie. It's a good movie for family and kids because it taught a lots a value to be a family and community like the value for self-esteem, helping each others and the importance being an an individual as part of life. (every creature has its own role in life). 

For me, the best part of the movie is when Erik's sang a disappointment's song towards Bryan (an elephant seal beach that was saved by Mumble after trapping in the iceberg when falling from the moving wall of ice) because Bryan refused to help them (Mumble and his son, Erik came along the way to Bryan place to asking for help due to the collapse of ice land of their home, where all the penguin in Emperor land trapped), whist he has promised Mumble to return a favor at any time as an honor for helping him. Let, hear the song. Very deep and touchy song with superb vocal, made me tears in my eyes, hehehe. "MY PAPA, MY HERO" i want to dedicate this song to my daddy, Mr RAMLI for being a great father and all papas in the world. 


Haha, that's all for my reviewed for this movie. Have a good time watching the movie. There's a lot of good inspirational and motivational quotes in the movie. A hug for Erik (soooo cute and fluffy, geram!!). Remember, being perfect wasn't about being great. Always be and believe in yourself, from there you can find your calling to achieve your dream. Peace yah!!

Just for gag: I have a dream to join a musical theater, hehehe. I bet it was difficult to perform in theater because i've experiencing to perform a stage a theater during a my 1st year as a junior in college for minggu tautan siswa as a nyamuk (tangkap muat). Can you believe this, hahahha, i still cant believe i did that.. but that was awesome to experience something you never did before.
