Young Detective Dee:Rise of the Sea Dragon
no.. not exactly surrounding investigation
more like a science fiction in disguise
pretty new elements found in oriental period piece
rock climbing fight, sea monster, “Frankenstein”
packed with heroism-martial action
set in a quite realistic and meticulously designed
Tang Dynasty setting
the plot is just alright,
doesn’t really give you that
“bang”impressive effect
and i somehow was like
oh okay, it’s about insect poisoning... again,
similar to the first Detective Dee movie
i don’t know
probably I am a little sensitive
the theme surrounding at war with Korea
Japanese baddies are kinda political
agenda-setting sort of theme
sci-fi is not my kind of thing
but the visual effects are up to something
although it doesn’t offer too much of surprise
in theme of storyline
at least I didn’t walk out of the cinema
with the what-the-heck-is-this feeling
have to admit that
“idolism”effect is the one which
attracted me into the cinema in the first place
Mark Mark!!!
have been watching all his movies and drama
the one and only drama he has back in Taiwan
and his career just boomed all the way
but this Mr. Dee isn’t exactly my favourite
of all the characters so far
and there were too little space for him to actually
act it out, pouring his killing emotions
plus the goatee is kinda, arrgh just don’t like it
if I could just get hold of a pair of scissors
and his very plain contemporary accent
doesn’t quite fit in Tang Dynasty
ha what cha asking for, boss
mad if there is dubbing
and original voice doesn’t sound ancient enough
and the idolisation of Feng Shao Feng 馮紹峰
probably there are tonnes of audiences like me
oh my goodness, still can’t get over
his role as Lan Ling Wang 蘭陵王
given the action packed scenes
he stole more space to act, compared to Mark Mark
in his eyes, the look of jealousy and contempt
towards Mr. Dee
his eyes are just MESMERIZING!!!
Lin Geng Xin 林更新, the Mr. cutie
quite eye catching
i didn’t really watch the palace-romance drama
he acted in
《Scarlet Heart 步步驚心》
but he was the best looking prince, i think
among them all
I still like Feng Shao Feng among the boys
just that he has this disadvantage in terms of height
when three of them are standing side by side
hey stop rambling on
height and wisdom and charisma are not co-related
and could anybody tell me
why is this character of his in red hair,
even the eyelashes and
light-shading eyes
Angelababy is so so pretty, as usual
goodness quite a poor-thing
despite of the top-ranked position as a prostitute
kidnapper who almost molested her
made to kiss “Frankenstein ”and
came to discover that’s her boyfie
the scenes where she were flung around in danger
i was like… arrgh will her bone break
cracccckk… just like that
poor baby
overall, good
living up to the expectation of Hua-Yi Bros production
visual effect, costume design, etc
and not forgetting
Mr. Director, Tsui Hak who kind of
specializes in costume movies since
way back when they were
99.9% Made in Hong Kong
i can’t help comparing it to Tai Chi series
although i prefer the latter, in terms of storyline
and if Mark Mark is given more space to act
it is going to sell well, for sure
in conjunction with the cinema peak season this week
a week-long break for Chinese Independent Day
almost hitting box office of
150 million RMB within three days
happy belated 29th birthday to Mark Mark
what.. he is not even 30 yet!
and apologies I simply love calling him Mark Mark
I don’t really stalk him like
how I have been stalking Eddie
but somehow following each and every movie of his
and I just came to know
Mark Mark and Lin Geng Xin
are filming 《Black & White 2 痞子英雄》
woohoo, looking forward
