Movie Review!

Latest movies watched:

1. Iron Man

2. What Happens in Las Vegas

Who would've thought Robert Downey JR was actually quite a good fit to play the annoying self-involved weapons designer cum ladies man? Perfect amount of smug and seriousness and drywit, I applaud the consummate actor for being perfectly believable as Tony Stark. Not the usual, kazillionaire-by-day and drowning-in-angst vigilante by-nite (Batman where art thou?), this superhero actually loves being one and thinks nothing of flaunting the must have outfit and gadgetry, which in this case, is very probably not made of iron, in broad daylight. My mother would have approved of the colour combi. Very auspicious.

Poor Gwyneth though. Pepper Potts really dumbed down this smart blonde. No wonder they dyed her hair red for this movie. Also very auspicious lah. I'd say all the ang worked. Look at the amount of money the movie made at the box office.

On the chick-com side, What Happens in Vegas is the usual cute but perfectly predictable rom-com starring the perfectly likable Ashton and Cameron. All perfect hair and perfect teeth and both very tall. But Cameron looks like she overdid the spray tan. What issit about the ang mohs and their obsession with "sunkissedness"?
Dounch unnerstand. Pefectly forgettable movie. I felt a mite ripped off cos it felt like a lame movie by 2 stars capable of better stuff but decided to boost their bank accounts by having a lot of fun on-screen at our expense.
