[Movie #] 6 Underground

 

Movie Name : 6 Underground

Country : USA

Genre : Action / Thriller

Rating : 5/5

Comment : It's a bit confusing in the beginning, because the way the storyline unfolds is in an irregular sequence. Each character is with an extreme contrast of their own background, you wouldn't want to risk going to the washroom in the middle at all because the development of the story happens so fast, missing that one minute would leave you figuring why and how. Overall, it is quite an entertaining movie with appropriate amount of action scenes to enjoy.

[Drama #] Kakafukaka

 

 

Drama Name : Kakafukaka

Country : Japan

Episodes : 10

Rating : 3/5 

Comment : It's like watching a real life anime with a twisted variation of soft porn LOL. No character development and the storyline was just plain flat, showing about 4 adults with various emotional and psychological problems living together. And as a result, messing each other up with their screwed-up-ness. There is sexual content with issues of a sexual nature raised. The only thing I like is the guy looks kinda cute and the drama is short with just 25 minutes of airing time per episode.

[Drama #] Before We Get Married

 


 

Drama Name : Before We Get Married

Country : Taiwan

Episodes : 13

Rating : 5/5 

Comment : It's been a while since I last watched Taiwan drama. This was introduced by Cindy and I love the storyline very much. Short and straight-forward. Reflecting about toxic and one-sided relationship in the current society. Minus the drama-coincidence-scenario-effect, most of time they are quite on point realistically and has a good depiction of murphy's law. Everything possible started to go wrong because of one intervening party's opinion. The story was well written and the acting were excellent.

[Movie #] Hustlers

  

Movie Name : Hustlers

Country : USA

Genre : Comedy / Crime / Drama

Rating : 4/5

Comment : The main reason I watch this movie is because I have watched how JLO prepped up and trained to Pole Dance for 2 months prior to this movie filming. Her pole dance shot in the movie was probably just a mere 5-10 minutes but it's damn fabulous. And I was quite surprise to see the girl who acted in 'Crazy Rich Asian', Constance Wu to be starring in this one as well. Overall, I find the movie quite touching and entertaining but they did not focus on the storytelling. It has a missing sense where the story only focus on a continuous loop of the crime rather than getting to the root of why it really started in the first place.

[Movie #] Underwater

  

Movie Name : Underwater

Country : USA

Genre : Action / Horror / Sci-Fi

Rating : 1/5

Comment : It's just another typical survival and creature feature without any wow elements. Not being good or interesting at all, the main actress have below-average acting and parts of the horror is just plain and repetitive. The sound is a disaster and the cinematography is foggy which is just not worth to watch at all.
