Movie Review: Tower Heist

“It’s not a robbery. It’s payback.”

Caught the preview of Tower Heist on Tuesday and oh boy was it hilarious!!

Josh (Ben Stiller) as the Hotel Manager of Tower Heist runs the daily operation of the hotel for almost a decade, managing every single needs of the guests. Till one fine day, billionaire Arthur Shaw was prosecuted for stealing billons from his investors, including the hotel’s staffs pensions. Josh then hatch a plan to steal the pension back from Shaw with the help of the staff and others.

Although Tower Heist is a partly a mimic of Oceans Trilogy, with Ben Stiller and Eddie Murphy, you will definitely get lots of laughter. Some scenes are pretty cheesy but no doubt it tickles the funny bone. I would give it 3.5/5 popcorn!

On a side note, New Yorkers will probably recognize the “hotel” as Donald Trump’s property.

Thanks to OMY for the tickets! :)

My OOTD:

Fast 5

Thanks to OMY, I caught the preview of Fast 5 on Wednesday!

I was surprised to learn that it’s already the 5th installment of the series. The first movie was released in 2001, oh boy, that’s 10 years ago~

You know how films start to fail when going on to the 3rd sequel – where it lacks of story and substance. For Fast 5, it totally blew me away! The plot is ingenious! Like the previous 4 films, Fast 5 was filled with jaw dropping and eye popping actions. The film was shot in Rio, Brazil which gave the movie a very good set.

I would give it 4.5 out of 5 stars. The missing 0.5 is for the cheesy moments. It did give the movie some humor but it is totally lame! haha…

Here’s the trailer for you to catch a glimpse of the action:

Don’t miss this movie! (:

IpMan2Poster

Rating: 3.5/5 popcorn

Everyone does wish for that love and mutual understanding shared between Ip Man and his wife, don’t you?

No doubt the fighting scenes were spectacular (I cried when Master Hong was beaten to death on the ring), I still felt that something was missing.
