What's up, readers!
Today is the last day of my September holidays and are you ready for school, Singaporeans? To me, I don't think so because time goes by quickly and this whole week I have been going to school for remedial and CCA. I had Maths remedial and CCA sectional practice on Monday, Physics remedial on Tuesday, Maths and Mother Tongue remedial on Wednesday, Mother Tongue remedial regarding composition on Thursday and CCA combined practice on Friday.
September holidays is the time where students do their homework, revision and play. Instead of revision, students have to go back to school and have remedial or CCA. By the time we reached home, no one has the mood to study or finish homework at all, unless if you are a serious, hardworking, diligent student. My whole holidays have been spazzing on Chinese–South Korean 12 members group, EXO and watching movies through phone.
The recent film that I have watched was The World's End starring Simon Pegg, Nick Frost and Martin Freeman. The film was about how the group of five back in their teenage days where they had a quest to drink all 12 pubs including The World's End which was their last stop. However, the group did not managed to finish the quest due to drunkenness. Years later, Simon Pegg as Gary King wanted to reunite the members and finished the quest where they started. During this period, the four members have their own job, house, car and family. As the members reunited and continue their 12 pubs quest, a strange phenomenon happened and they decided to teamwork in completing the quest before anyone reached the last stop. I had a great laugh while watching this film because most of stunts were hilarious, similar to Jackie Chan's and the actors were able to hold the film till the end. Though Simon Pegg is a comedian who brings in dirty jokes, he was a brilliant lead. Although there isn't really much storyline except alien invasion and a quest to The World's End, the overall of this film was not dull. Therefore, on a scale of 5 stars, I would give 3.5 out of 5 stars.
Another film that I have watched was The Bling Ring. The film is based on true event of the real Bling Ring who invaded high–profile celebrities' house and took their jewelries and other belongings from 2008 to 2009. With newbie cast and the well known Emma Watson, the film did not leave a lasting impression until the ending. The story was too slow paced and boring, especially if you have read the case of The Bling Ring, then I see no point of you trying to watch this film. Without Emma Watson featuring as Nicki, the audience would probably dozed off while the film is on. With a boring, slow paced and uninteresting scenes, I would rate this film 2 out of 5 stars.
I shall stop here and I hope everyone has a good weekend! For Singaporeans, it's time to "chiong" your homework and get started with revision since End-Of-Year examinations are coming! Have a great, wet Sunday!
