Shuǐyàorì

Wednesday! So I had class in the afternoon..
woke up, showered, and had lunch while watching an awesome movie. :)
So this post is gonna be more on that movie than anything else.. ehehehe~


"Get Him To The Greek (2010)"

Now, I have to say, I was never a big fan of Russell Brand~ uhmm you know! The comedian! uhmm Katy Perry's husband? well now, ex-husband~ mehh! I just found out they met each other due to this movie. And also this movie made Russell my new fav actor/comedian right after Jim Carey and Adam Sandler of course.. but above Jack Black. ahahaha. and I'll talk more about the movie at the end of this post;


Please note that the movie review and the movie itself may not suitable for minors.
what with all the racism, religionism, drug abuse, violence, adult humor, nudity and even a couple of sex songs. :)
Please bear in mind before proceeding to the entire post. thankius~ blah blah blah~



-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

So back to my day, afternoon I went to class. it was TYPOGRAPHY class
and I swear i was half asleep through the entire class..
Didn't learn anything special.
Nothing new happened.
And overall it was just kinda boring... ahahax
makes me glad that the College upgraded their wi-fi
so that we could get a signal on the fifth floor.
but Ohhh~ it only had 2 bars :( slow-ness..
but it was enough for me to get on facebook n chat with friends awhile.. mehh~
after classes chatted with ric, greeted a few familiar faces.. blahh blahh blahhh~
overall it was a really boring school day.
mmhmm~
but then I already got my first homework and its kinda sad. :\ ahahax..
Since i'm already in the CNY mood and not the studying mood~
argh~ oh well.....



So here's the movie review :)
------------------------------------------------------------------


Aiight~ so first off we have Jonah Hill, who plays Aaron Green in the movie. He's a big fan of the rockstar, Aldous Snow (Russell Brand). works in a record label crumbling record label which is in need of some income. So during a board meeting Aaron gave his idea on having an anniversary concert on Aldous Snow to his boss, Sergio (P.Diddy). His idea was quickly shunned, as Aldous was a washed up rockstar due to his last single which had racism towards Africans. But in the end his boss was convinced and agreed to this and Aaron was in charge of bringing Aldous to the anniversary concert at the Greek theater.
And that's where the story really picks up :)

So first off, I didnt know Russell Brand can sing and damn he can sing!

as well as the Australian actress, Rose Byrne who plays Jackie Q, Aldous's ex-girlfriend in the movie. To be honest, I think that Katy Perry got her persona from this character.

uhmm~ This movie had a lot of cameo for people like Katy Perry, Johnny Depp, Mario Lopez, P!nk, Christina Aguilera, etc. etc...

So anyway~ some of the songs in these movie are dirty~
ehehe but still good, in fact they're better than some of the mainstream music we have today. Like I said its like Katy Perry's style.
The movie was a hit in the united states and thus brought forth the band.

Infant Sorrow
they released an album on all the songs used in the movie :)
and it was a big hit, despite the genre. ahaha~
though most of the songs wont make sense unless you actually watch the movie.
Its a very well thought out movie. It pretty much shows a Rockstar's rising back up to superstardom.. and all the crazy stuff in between.
Its really funny and very entertaining.
And Russell Brand is just damn funny xD
So I rate this movie

8.9/10 :)

Its just that good!

If you're open-minded enough to watch movies like this and I'll tell you that this is a fun movie to watch!


You can find the music videos of the songs from the movie on youtube.
If you just search for the in-movie singer's name :)
or just look up Infant Sorrow, for the songs.

That's it! as a closing for this post;
Here's two of the song from the movie...


Furry Walls - Aldous Snow (Russell Brand)
(it wont make sense unless you watch the movie, but its still a neat song)




Supertight - Jackie Q (Rose Byrne)
(this is definitely not for minors below the age of 16~ but who cares, our society's messed up anyway~ ehehehe~ uh hmmm~ mehh~ Enjoy? :\ )
