Premiere Screening: The Maze Runner

So, I was once again, lucky enough to watch The Maze Runner, huge thanks to Nuffnang :)



The Maze Runner is a movie adaption of the best-selling-post-apolcalyptic novel written by James Dashner. I was really excited for this movie mostly because of the cast. hahahah :p The cast was absolutely PERFECT! This film was beyond amazing.

It is so pleased to see hot young cast in movie, but if you ask me did the actors/actress live up to the characters portrayed?

YES! ABSOLUTELY YESSSSS! ♥ Each and everyone of them play a super important role in the movie that make the whole movie a success. *thumbs up*

Alby, Teresa, Chuck, Thomas, Newt, Minho and Gally :) Played by Aml Ameen, Kaya Scodelario, Blake Cooper, Dylan O'Brien, Thomas Brodie-Sangster, Lee Ki-Hong and Will Poulter


One reason that I love this movie is there are no boring parts or scene where leads you to outer space and thinking 'when is this going to get interesting?' I don't wanna spoil the movie because this is not like any other movies where they leave you miserable, trying to figure out what is happening. Every details is played so well and I guess I will spoil it if I type it all out here. You just gonna watch it yourself :)

But I guess I will still tell how the movie starts, here we go:

When Thomas wakes up in the lift, he couldn't remember anything, not even his name. He was frightened, and surrounded by boys who lost their memories just like him. They were stucked in a place called 'the Glade'. Outside the towering stone that surround the Glade is a limitless, ever-changing maze. It is clearly the only way out but no one ever made it through alive. Alby, the first arrival, and Newt form the leadership team, and enforcer Gally provides any physical persuasion required to keep everyone in line performing their assigned tasks. There's also gardeners and goat herders provision the camp, craftsmen fashion shelter and tools, but the Runners get the most respect.


'Everything is going to change'


Then a girl arrives. The first girl ever. And the message she bring is terrifying.


'She is the last one ever'


'I think its time to find out what we're up against' - Thomas 


The wall where everyone carves their name.



Minho! ♥ :) Because he deserve a picture on his own :p


Too much perfection in this pic *faint*

From left, Minho, Thomas and Newt ♥♥♥

Solo pic of the wonderful cast that make this movie perfect.








Overall, this movie is exciting, fun, and thrilling. It attracts all my attention from the moment it began ♥


Remember. Survive. Run.

Make sure all of you check this movie out if you haven't! And if you wanna know why? Here you go! 

Till then, xx

Premiere Screening Review: Lucy

I am everywhere.


It's my first review of #NNpremierescreening, I know I'm lazy but I decided to write about this. No, it's not because the movie is good. If any of you considering to watch Lucy, I suggest you to watch The 100 Foot Journey instead (reviews coming up next!) 

Lucy started off with animals, and monologue which I do not understand. Or probably didn't bother to think what is all that suppose to mean. To be honest, I can hardly remember what is happening but this is how the whole story started. 

The movie stars Scarlett Johansson (plays Lucy), along with Morgan Freeman, Amr Waked and Choi Min Sik. As the poster shows, the whole movie is basically about what will happen to a person if they are able to utilize the 100% of their brain capacity.

Story starts when Lucy was forced to deliver a suitcase which contains a new type of drugc called CPH4 to Mr Jang (Choi Min-Sik). She was captured and a crazy huge bag of drug that she delivered was forcibly sewn into her abdomen. Another 3 drug mules and Lucy were sent to different part of Europe, mainly to transport the drug for sales. While Lucy is in captivity, she was harassed by one of her captors and when she fought back, the captors kicked her stomach, and cause the leakage of the drug into her body.



After the leakage, Lucy somehow realize that she can use 100% of her brain capacity, she don't feel pain and began to increase her physical and mental capabilities. She can do all the things that is beyond imagination, such as controlling others' movement. She then went to the hospital to get the bag of CPH4 removed from her body. Morgan Freeman plays Prof Samuel Norman which is a well known scientist and doctor who does researches about human brain, Lucy seek for Prof Norman's help and they worked together closely, Lucy discusses the nature of time and life and so on. 


Choi Min-sik plays Mr Jang, evil and merciless guy. He was the guy behind who send Lucy and the other 3 drug mules to different parts of Europe and when Lucy returns to his hotel, kills his bodyguards, that's when he knows that he has to do something. At the climax of the movie, he enters Professor Norman's lab and points a gun at Lucy's head from behind, wanting to kill her, but when he shoots and right before the bullet strikes, Lucy disappears! 

Want to know why? and how? It's up to you whether you want to watch and find out :p
