Hi there...haven't write for some time now...maybe it is because of the lack of time, or lack of ideas..I dunno.
Actually I just got back from GSC in Mid Valley, went to see a movie with my friends, and the movie that I have chosen was "Once A Gangster". Remember "Young and Dangerous"? The movie about Chinese triads rivalry in Causeway Bay in Hong Kong. Did it ring a bell to you? No? How about Chan Ho Nam, Chicken, Tai Tin Yee, Pou Pan and Chow Pan from the Hung Hing Triad? WHAT??You never heard of them?? Where have you been all this time man? Ridiculous!
When I stumbled over the poster of this movie, suddenly I felt the excitement. "Wah, selepas 14 tahun, dorang buat wayang ni balik?" I have to admit, I idolized them when I was growing up. Please do not blame me, blame it on the angry teenager inside me.
Ok, lets just cut the story short. From the beginning, I felt something different about this movie, and it is not what I expected. It is not worth a penny at all! Damn!
The appearance of Ekin Cheng and Jordan Chan as heroes can't hide the weak plots that they got in this movie. The reputation of Chan Ho Nam and Chicken of Hung Hing Triad have been tarnished....
I wanted to write a short synopsis about the things that I hate about the movie, and I know that I got a lot of that. But because of the 'side effects' from watching it, I made a decision that I won't write any. I just want to vent my anger, my disappointment. If you didn't believe me, go and spend RM12 of your hard earned money and see this movie. I can assure you that you will regret it.
Five last words from me: THIS-MOVIE-WAS-A-JOKE!
Ciao.
