Movie Sunday

My eyes went back to normal after a good night's sleep, lucky I'm not going blind! Since I've lost a day of this weekend, decided to join a friend and see the new Mummy movie (which got some very poor ratings). After an over-filling lunch, we wondered around the shopping centre for a bit, then headed for the movies. The movie's action and effects were good, but that was pretty much all the high lights. Although Alex was very cute when he was speaking Chinese hehe.

Although the story line of the movie were kinda too typical and somehow didn't connect (can someone please explain the part why did the witch cast the "mummy" spell rather than the immortal spell when she thought the emperor granted her wish to spend her life with the general??). However, I did notice one quotable quote from it, when Rick had an argument with his son, after his son stormed out, his wife said this "We spent our lives looking for priceless artifacts yet we have lost the only precious thing we have" (or along the lines of those, I could not remember it word to word after an hour of movie). Although family and love stuff are not my cup of tea, I found this piece of dialogue was very well done and brilliantly played out.
