Movies based on true story

The Blind Side. – directed by John Lee Hancock

Sandra Bullock won Best actor for the Oscar award. Very good acting. The Blind Side is based on the remarkable true story of Baltimore Ravens offensive left tackle Michael Oher. A homeless black teenager, Michael Oher (Quinton Aaron) has drifted in and out of the school system for years. Then Leigh Anne Tuohy (Sandra Bullock) and her husband, Sean (Tim McGraw), take him in, transforming Michael’s life and theirs. With help from his new-found family, tutors and coaches, he realizes his potential as a student and football player.

The real kind Touhy family. They are really a very kind rich people who not being racism and change a kid’s life.

Next was The Invictus – directed by Clint Eastwood

The film tells the inspiring true story of how Nelson Rolihlahla Mandela joined forces with the captain of South Africa’s rugby team to help unite their country. Mandela’s life was taken away for 27 years in Ruben Island prison for being arrested and convicted of sabotage and other charges. Newly elected President Mandela knows his nation remains racially and economically divided in the wake of apartheid. Believing he can bring his people together through the universal language of sport, Mandela rallies South Africa’s rugby team as they make their historic run to the 1995 Rugby World Cup Championship match.

The real Nelson Rolihlahla Mandela. The president of South Africafrom 1994 to 1999.

He was a prisoner who became a president. To unite his country, he asked one man to do the impossible.

The real Francois Pienaar

A former rugby player who captained and played flanker for the South African Springboks national rugby union team.. He led the Springboks to victory in the 1995 Rugby World Cup with inspired by Mandela.

I likey one sentence of Invictus Poem by William Ernest Henley.

Out of the night that covers me,
Black as the Pit from pole to pole,
I thank whatever gods may be
For my unconquerable soul.
In the fell clutch of circumstance
I have not winced nor cried aloud.
Under the bludgeonings of chance
My head is bloody, but unbowed.
Beyond this place of wrath and tears
Looms but the Horror of the shade,
And yet the menace of the years
Finds, and shall find, me unafraid.
It matters not how strait the gate,
How charged with punishments the scroll.
I am the master of my fate:
I am the captain of my soul.

Movies that worth watching

Had a movie marathon

1st was up in the air by Jason Reitman
I feel like I become more motivate do things that I wanted to long time ago after watching it. :) there’re some qoute and lines in the movie which I find it quite interesting and nice.

Went into wonderland. Alice in the wonderland by Tim Burton

It wasn’t the same story like what we watch Alice when we are young. It is actually some sort like part 2 of alice of wonderland which telling the story of grown up 19-year-old Alice returns to the magical world from her childhood adventure, where she reunites with her old friends and learns of her true destiny: to end the Red Queen’s reign of terror.

Storyline okokler but I like the make-up of Helena Bonham Carter. Nice. Whenever there’re Tim Burton’s movie we will definitely see his wife Helena Bonham Carter and Johnny Depp as the casts wan :)

Hachiko: A Dog’s Story by Lasse Hallström
It has been a while I never see Richard Gere. Mummy’s idol hehe
Akitas, a japanese dog which very loyal to the owner. Yee U can consider of getting urself an akitas after Max end his life. :P

A true story about An American adaptation of a Japanese tale about a loyal dog named Hachiko. This very special friend would accompany his master to the train station every day and return each afternoon to greet him after work. Sadly his master departs one day, passes away and never returns to the station. Hachiko faithfully returns to the same spot at the station the very next day, and every day for the next nine years to wait for his beloved master. During his daily visits, Hachiko touches the lives of many who work near and commute through the town square. He teaches the local people love, compassion and above all unyielding loyalty. Today, a bronze statue of Hachiko sits in his waiting spot outside the Shibuya station in Japan as a permanent reminder of his devotion and love.

2012 Rating : 6.4 (IMDb)
So far this surprise me. It does. The rating for this movie is like so damn low. hmmm the reviews are not so positive. to me was okler. but the 3D effect from Industrial Light & Magic really awesome.

District 9 Rating : 8.4 (IMDb)
I tell ya this is fcuking awesome. FCUKING AWESOME. so damn good and the review and rating are all so high I dont know why there’re still so many friends around me said not nice, fcuking shit movie??? hmmm….. so good man. I felt like puking after watching it. It shows the hopes from the other side. The main actor’s acting is good.

Inglorius Basterds Rating : 8.5 (IMDb)
Fuh Quentin Tarantino sipek keat. I watched District 9 in the morning and Inglorius in the night fuh double the feel of puke-ness
But the show is good. After that I had a history class by *me love* about the Jews and Nazi; Between the white and the black; and also Malaysia ( luckily last time I didnt pay attention in the class or study hard for History class because I just get to know that alot info from history text book are fake one ) Racism and discrimination is still everywhere right now aikss…. What’s the point? All this reminds me of the Japanese and the Chinese last time.

After all the violence best movies of course there’re some romance.

The Classic

It’s a korean romance movie. I was having my menstrual pain that night I couldnt focus and pay attention on the movie but so far still ok for me :)

500 days of Summer Rating : 8.2 (IMDb)

誓約 歷遍世間轉化
善惡 未報最終需要代價
平步震驚天下 綢緞如鏡玉砌似畫
眉目未算未染細沙 請你 留下

日抱住 別作夢 未得寵
看到的 聽到的 不要信
遺憾是 閉起眼時 至望到世間多少暗湧

愛得深 說得真 別感動
再錐心 再刻骨 不覺痛
無奈是 兩手相擁 也是覺得冰凍


紅風車 轉一轉吧 福來我家
求風生 雨點降下 花兒別怕
紅花開 笑一笑吧 福來我家
雲飄飄 聽風說話 娃兒別怕

月缺月會順時 下雨下雪聽天
念掛像風箏 不見面 有著線牽

紅風車 轉一轉吧 福來我家
如分開 雨點降下 娃兒別怕

Then born rich is about brothers story. Quite good also.
富貴門


I love this sentence :
天堂在哪方
我怕就怕 失望
其余一切也不枉
所有代價 通通舍割。
心血都流光

okler the stew of life is more relaxing series ler so didnt really follow every episode but quite a not bad series also. :)
