Poker King

CNY is always about gambling, luck, gambling, luck. So it is no surprise that all movies shown are either about Mahjong, Feng Shui or Poker eh?

Movies about gambling always amazes me.. because I don't know how to. Hahaha yeah I don't know how to play Poker, am just a beginner at Mahjong. Facinating when they call out various winning combinations.


Lol, yes yes I know this is back in 2009. I told ya I'm not up to date with entertainment..

I think Uno Cheuk's female assistant's role is the easiest to play. She barely utter more than 3-4 sentences in the whole movie. Just like a silent secret admirer of her boss. Hmmm.... weird idea.

Oh and because I don't really understand Chinese (yes, I'm a banana!) I don't understand who is good or bad lol. Uno Cheuk looked like a good guy, so pro at poker. Did he intentionally let Jack win?


... and how come Jack has a sifu at the end of the story. Was he really a naive, incapable chap?


So fickle, he was into Season at first... and in a blink of an eye, Smiley became his other half? Hmmm weird..

Entertaining anyhow.. :)

Ice Kacang Puppy Love..

Released in April last year and I only get to watch it now..
CNY is indeed a time to be lazy and catch up with movies hahaha.


The scene where Fighting Fish were teased mercilessly about not having a dad, brings back memories to me..



When I was 9, I went through the same experience. My dad has just passed away, and at school I was teased. Looking back, the boy was fat and short, just like the kid portrayed here haha.

Of course, I did not hit the kid back. I studied very hard, became a prefect at school, and constantly checked on the fat kid. I'd do so well in Maths that in many lessons, I was appointed by the teacher to mentor some weak lazy kids. Guess what.. the fatty was one of them. My loyal ruler was always with me.. and I had valid excuse to smack his hands.. lol. Revenge was sweet..

Anyway, I like this movie, but pity it ended with both Botak and Fighting Fish not being together... sad, ain't it?
