END OF MSK
I feel like screaming after the end of Musculoskeletal System. Yesterday's exam marks the end of the most tiring and demanding system of all time in IMU since starting the medical course. The Nervous System beckons with even more demanding and difficult things to study which I currently don't want to know....
So obviously, we decided to do something after such a tiring 5 weeks. Some guys decided on watching a movie. John mentioned Dead or Alive, DOA.
Somehow, when I heard it the first time in cinema ads way back months ago, I know that this is one of those low budget shows which offer nothing more than predictable plots, cliche scenes, dialogues, bad scripts, and CGI to spice up the show, which happens to be nearly 100% true. So why do I wan't to see this, cause I haven't been to a darn movie for the past 5 weeks and I hope my assumptions were wrong or at least partially wrong.
But before, I comment on the predictable slew of words on the quality of the show, let me first start elaborating on my journey to MidValley.
The time was about 1.45 when I left my house, which wasn't too bad cause going to MidValley from my place would take about 15-20 minutes. Unfortunately, the moment I drove off to the junction at the Kuchai lama junction near the Saujana School, a massive traffic jam lasting 20 minutes started which is normally there but would only take 5 minutes but was compounded by idiotic Indonesian workers (working on the Putrajaya highway) who have no idea that squeezing a busy part of Seri Petaling into one lane isn't a very wise thing to do.
After, enduring the ridiculous jam created by the road blocks, I thought the next part of the journey would be smooth sailing and jam-free. Thankfully, this was the case at least for a while...
To my amazement, there was another massive jam which wasn't at the junction to enter MidValley but within the parking bay itself. Little did I know, that 2.30 in the afternoon, would result in such heavy traffic in the carpark, people coming in more than coming out. This time I knew that I may have to miss a bit of the show but thankfully the jam lasted about 15 minutes, thanks to some really excellent traffic wardens.
So what's the relationship??
The jam was a sign that I should not have watched the show....FULLSTOP!!!
Coming back to the show....the show gets a C from me, like I said...everything was predictable, except for some weird moments where guy fantasizes about being with girl like "Public Affair".
Apart from focusing on the action/fighting scenes which I have no qualms about....director likes focusing on underwear....and Cory Yuen introduced the World's First aerial bra slot...
Boss appears good but boss is the bad guy, bad guy has some hidden agenda, becomes evil and powerful( like those bad guys in movies/cartoons who dreams of taking over the world) become superkungfu master and decides to fight them..
Bad Guy could die so easily but scriptwriter decides to let the "chicks" fight him with his state-of-the-art sunglasses on even when they could have tried an alternative which would lead to his early demise and save some time b4 a self-destruct sequence in the show. But no... they decide to sweat it out until the last remaining seconds and kill him. With apparent "stylishness" they jump off and dive into the sea and boy gets girl/girl gets boy and it's a Happy Ending....Blah Blah Blah..
Well anyway, though I didn't enjoy the show but at least the fighting scenes were better than I expected.
