new sparring partner & movie reviews

played W last friday and drew 2-2, didn't play very well. always felt like i was chasing. played again on tuesday and won 3-1! quite fortuitous to win the first set but then the last two sets, guessed he just crumbled, heh. looks like i got a new sparring partner! =P

some movies that i've watched recently, hot fuzz and oceans 13. i'd rate both of them 4/5.

hot fuzz was very funny in a brit humour kind of way, balancing action and a witty storyline. its about poking fun into the stale british police force and the story of this over-achieving cop who lands himself a promotion to a sleepy, perfect village. but underneath that exterior of perfectness, there's a sneaky conspiracy going on.

oceans 13 was a more sophisticated storyline, i liked it not only for the star-studded cast but its overall storyline, witty remarks and sudden twists. how did you get even with the most ruthless man? this very talented team is back to show us how ;)

transformers was better than i had expected. the action was thick, fast and furious. clearly an action flick, as the storyline was quite flat. well, not as if its meant to have lots of dialogue. pity the transformations between normal vehicles to their bot forms could have a bit slower, it would have been a lil more cooler. i'd rate this 3.5/5 btw, for girls, the army guy guy in the show is hot (as claimed by a few girls i've spoken to) and i will say that the female lead was hotter! ;)

now back to my essay =P

btw, i'll be meeting Ronnie Alcano tmrw for his private clinic at Duxton Blue :)

i'd easily recommend those two shows to anyone.
