The Leap Years.
ok. tis post was supposed to be typed ytd. but i was too tired to do it. (even now i feel damn tired to do tis. still, i'll type it.)
The Leaps Years was a totally fantastic movie. Anyone who hasnt watch it, shld really catch it while u can. if not, buy the vcd/dvd lor. you wun regret watching the show. whether u watch it with that special someone, ur frens, family, or alone, it's still a great show.
ok. mayb the start was a little boring, a little anti-climatic, and not much of strong illustration of the story. but. BUT. hold on to ur seats. keep watching. it's the later parts that are those powerful ones. those fantastic, marvellous scenes of the movie with impactful and meaningful content that will intrigue u, that is if u understand and are able to feel the emotions (i'm not sure if those who hav watched find that the show has a tinge of abstract meaning, well taz wad i think. some juz might not understand.)
the potrayal of the storyline was done very well. not sure if it's the director's effort or the artistes' one. but i think it's the artistes that did really well in the acting of each of the roles, esp Li Lin(as Li-Ann) and Ananda (as Jeremy). The supporting roles did a great job too, adding humor, ties, and strong frenship to the show. even though i nvr read the novel at all, i can even feel the movie was a well done one. (hmm. mayb i shld start reading. thn soon i'll pick up reading. hmmmm. man. i cant imagine myself picking up reading as a hobby.)
and last but not least. the music. A PERFECT SELECTION/CHOICE of songs used in the film. most of the songs were by corrinne may. and one or two by some other singers. dno who either. the songs were fitted exactly to how it shld feel during the movie. and with the smooth tune and soothing voice, waz there more to ask.
and in a way. the movie was pretty inspirational with all the sayings by renowned writers/inventors (arhh...renowned pple lar. heck with wadever occupation they were.)
The best novelistic film I've seen thus far.
