Secret (不能說的秘密) Movie & Soundtrack (OST) By Jay Chou

Secret 不能說的秘密 as in translation which means a "secret could not tell", was a movie released recently by Jay Chou. After featuring in two successive movies such as "Initial D" by Andrew Lau and Alan Mak where he was winner of the best new artist at 25th Hong Kong film awards, and another epic movie "Curse of the golden flower" by Zhang Yimou.

Jay Chou as Jay a new student at Tamkang High School follow a mysterious piano tunes to the musical classroom where he meets with Yu(Kwan Lun Mei). It was a love at first sight. As their relationship getting more closer, Jay wanted to know Yu deeper but she insist that it's a secret.

As graduation day approaches, Yu decided to tell Jay all about her secrets where they promise to meet at the musical room one night but she never turn up from that day, leaving Jay a confusion in his mind. Everything seems a mystery for Jay as when he search for her throughout the school. But nobody is able to answer Jay's questions, he can't even find her name on the student registered list. To his surprise, he found Yu standing beside her father in an old photograph. So he determine to find out what the secret really is, no matter what it takes. So the rest story you need to go and watch it. I respect his request to keep it SECRET as not to review here.


A lovely-dovey scene on bicycle rides.
Also feature in Secret was veteran Anthony Wong (Chiu) who also starring as Jay's father too in "Initial D". The chemistry between these two actors seem to spark out. According to Jay, the hardest part on shooting the movie was during the piano scenes where it was a straight recording and if got a single wrong note keyed, it needed to be retake.

A man with high ambitions, always a good thing since he widen his career from a song composer/singer to cinematic career. Beside directing and writing the movie script, he also self sponsor of this movie. Hope he will win the best director awards which will be a record breaking as the youngest director amongst the all.

Rush Hour 3

After working shift this morning around 10 am, suddenly i felt like going for the movie again since Musa eager to go for one. So we make an arrangement to go for movies where as Jared also joined us. For sure, we gonna chose the latest movie released on 9th August 2007 which was Rush Hour 3 by Jackie Chan and Chris Turker.

Okay, what's so good about this movie? This time i think they both did another great jobs in making the audiences happier by creating so much funny scenes and dialogues. Well, so this time what were the missions that they need to do? Of cause still related to the previous series, where consul Han (Tzi Ma) was nearly being assasinated by Jackie's childhood friend Kenji (Hiroyuki Sanada) from the ophange home.

So they need to find the root cause which lead to a triad organisations where there was a list of 13 names of the leaders gang of triads that called (Shu Yen) that was being tatooed on the head of Genevieve (Noemie Lenoir).

The gorgeous Zhang Jing Chu, Jackie Chan and Chris Tucker.

What's more impressed me was that Consul Han's Daughter Soo Yung (Zhang Jing Chu) have grown to teenager where she was so cute on the scene.I remembered on previous sequels that she was still a little gurl. I'd post a few photos of her here. She also starred in Seven Sword as Liu Yu Fang.

Movies Crazy..

Since i was off on monday and got nothing to do, so i might as well went for movies. I watched 2 movies in 2 days. They are the Rise: Blood Hunter and Border Town. Both movies were not so worth the price, maybe low budget movies.

This horror/thriller film was directed by Sebastian Gutierrez. Main cast are from Lucy Liu as Sadie Blake, Michael Chiklis as Detective C. Rawlins and the bad guy James D'Arcy as Bishop. From the beginning, after 20 mins watching, i was already feeling that this film was some kind of a movie of Blade by Wesley Snipes.

Sadie Blake as a reporter who was killed by vampire cult seek revenge when she woke up on a morgue finding herself of becoming one of them. Her mission was to hunt them down one by one until she found Bishop that causing her death. She was helped by Detective Rawlins whose daughter was also slaughter by the same vampire cligue.

The best part of this movie was when she found out that no matter how hard she tried to commit suicide, she will still come back to life, as her mission was not revenge. Well, my ratings for this movie gonna be 5/10 only.

Border Town featuring Jennifer Lopez as Lauren Adrian and Antonio Banderas as Alfonso Diaz, both reporters trying to solve out the mystery between the numerous women that are raped and murdered in Ciudad Juarez.

They were trying to protect the sole survivor Eva (Maya Zapata) that ever escaped for the series of slaying which involved young factory women that required to work long hours for little money in order to produce mass quantity products for a compay near the mexican bordertown.

They also try to find the two killers to bring them prosecuted but, of cause, the bad guys sure are in good position and wealthy too. So in order to catch them, Lauren need to starts working in the factory as bait on the bus ride because they sure'll follow the same routine as how they did on others. It's lucky for Lauren to escape also as Eva had told her all the routines she had been through.

Diaz which in the film got few scenes only get killed after Lauren plans the published her news since she got proof already, but she need to get back to america. Everything seems to start chaos for Eva, because she felt no more safety beyond the border as she tried to fleed to the US, together with the others migrants in the trunk of a car. She got caught and was sent back.

Finally, Lauren was back but she can't find Eva, as she had been missing from Teresa's house. So she might as well went back to Eva's hometown and tried her lucks where the ending of the story stops there by overcoming the main mastermind. My ratings for this movie, 4/10.
