Hello to you... Let me ask you a simple question, what does your alarm clock sound like every morning? Is it the 'RRRRrrrrriingggggg' one or the 'Ring...Ring...' type? Well, if yours is either one, I really pity you because my alarm is absolutely lovely. It doesn't sound anything close to an irritating bell but it instead it plays soothing orchestral musics, sometimes it would be high pitch opera songs. Yes it is such music that is set into my alarm system which turns a typical alarm clock into something else, a 'sleep improver'. Ok so guess who woke me up at 8am in the morning? Definitely not my alarm clock, but my MUM!!! Gosh, only if I had a sound proof window to shut her mouth. Well, in the end I went back to sleep with the 'alarm' still on. ____9.30am____yawnz... I then crawled out of bed and took my black coloured bread with dried up ham. Sometimes I just feel like killing my damn maid, my mother pays her and yet she gives me such lousy food. I tell you, nowadays maid agencies just love to lie to you about how good their maids are and then they will go to their country and pick up some lousy maid from the country side and force them to become maids. Oh by the way if you didn't know, Singapore's maids are all first hand products which undergoed NO training and only after they worked for 4 years will then they be able to go to Hong Kong to work and the Hongkies need not worry about teaching these damn maids. Some say what you are is what you eat, I believe I am becoming more and more depressed due to the everyday food I eat. Guess what I ate for lunch? Fried Rice! Guess what is in the rice? Yes there was egg, a little vegetable but worst of all! FISH!! Oh you might think its a full fish, no no its not, its slices of fish with small little bones all mixed into the rice. Whats worst, the food stinks.

-Comments-
This film is actually really good if you have really high appreciation on such art films. However, in my own perspective, I feel that it lags the juice to the storyline and the impact onto the audience was very poor. I was in the theatre sitting next to some Jury members and while watching the film, I was amazed to hear someone snoring. Then I looked to my left and found a Jury member falling asleep! Oh it was a wonderful sight, just wished that I could take a picture of that person and post it to the director of the film. Ok I don't blame the film for being too slow as it is a art film after all. What is bad about it is the conversations that the film actors/actresses have in the film that sometimes does not make a single sense to the development of the storyline. So its like a wasted line or a line made in the film to just extend the time of the movie so as to make the run time of the movie a little longer. Haha yes I am being quite rather crude at this area but oh well, time is money after all. What is strong in this film is not its filming techniques or the story but instead the actors and actresses. I was quite impressed by their acting.
In conclusion, my final verdict and rating....
RATING
