The Dark Knight

Watched The Dark Knight 2 weeks ago. I would say I'd give it 5-star rating. In fact, the movie is the best I watched so far this year. The movie was very long though, about 2 hour and 30 minutes, but I was able to stay awake throughout the movie though I was a bit tired. The soundtrack was amazing and give me the feeling of this is the sequel to Batman Begins. Christian Bale really did a good job reprising his role as Batman, and the late Heath Ledger got it right as Joker. The movie focuses more on Joker trying to turn good guys to bad and finally bringing down Harvey Dent - the DA, who has the mission for justice. If you notice the DA's name, you would know that Harvey Dent is the Two-Face and now I know why the Two-Face has the tendency to flip his coin - fair and because the coin was the coin that he gave to Rachel. The Joker, was terrifying and share his characteristic with classic villains such as Hannibal Lechter. Famous quote from the Joker - "Why so serious?" was in fact on of the song's title. Well, that's all for now. Waiting for the next Batman project from Nolan again.

Mission Impossible 4: Ghost Protocol

Anyone who has already watched Mission Impossible 4: Ghost Protocol would have notice that Mission Impossible 4 is a little bit different from the previous three Mission Impossible(s). I am not sure why there are many critics on Tom Cruise acting, but to me, he is ok. I mean, I know a lot of times, they are saying that Mission Impossible is like talking about himself, but I really beg to differ. Mission Impossible is not really about Tom Cruise alone, I mean he is the leader, he do most of the dangerous work, but behind him is a group of capable secret agents who can support him in all the missions. Anyway, back to Mission Impossible 4: Ghost Protocol. The story started with a chase on a roof in one of a building in Budapest and the agent look so cool when he jumped down and look upwards to shoot the chasers.....but however, was later assassinated by a female assassin. Then we have Ethan Hunt break a prison from Russia with the help of IMF agents and proceed to accept a mission to infi...

Zirkzee's Late Heroics Ignite Manchester United's Premier League Campaign with Victory Over Fulham

Manchester United got their Premier League campaign off to a promising start with a dramatic late 1-0 victory over Fulham, thanks to debutant Joshua Zirkzee’s 87th-minute goal. The £36.5 million summer signing from Bologna stepped off the bench to deliver a moment of magic, securing three crucial points for Erik ten Hag’s side in front of a jubilant Old Trafford crowd. The relief was evident as Ten Hag celebrated the winner with both fists clenched, knowing how much the result meant after a challenging preseason. United struggled to convert their chances for most of the match, with Bruno Fernandes deployed as a false nine. Despite the pressure, it was Zirkzee who emerged as the hero, providing a much-needed spark and focal point in attack when introduced in the 61st minute. Ten Hag was quick to praise his new striker, saying, "It’s important for a striker to get off the mark quickly, and Zirkzee did exactly that. The win is satisfying, especially at the start of the season. We’re ...
