If you have read my review of Korean movie [K-movie], My Sassy Girl, you would know that I was quite impressed with the way it was able to move me at a critical point in the movie.

My Sassy Girl [American version] movie poster

When I read that American movie makers are going to remake this movie, I was quite disappointed. I think that my Sassy Girl and Shutter are Asian “classics” that should be left as they are. Why do Americans want to come and mess up these movies, I do not know. Do they think that they could top these productions and the way they are able to touch us? I don’t think so. They have more than enough scripts to turn into movies so do that. Make NEW movies.

Of course, Shutter and My Sassy Girl are just fine examples to cite. There were quite a few Asian “classics” that have been adapted as well…..to failure, in my opinion. You be the judge!

I am sure you have noticed the advertorial on a lot of our blogs for the movie, Hancock. I tell you, this image does nothing to me and I was not even curious to check out what this movie is about. However, when there are too many superhero movies coming out this summer, I really would like to watch something different, so that was why I decided to see what else will be hitting the cinemas besides Iron Man and the Incredible Hulk.

In Hancock, Will Smith stars as John Hancock, a fallen superhero who still has superhero powers [invulnerable, superhuman strength and the power of super-sonic flight - so fake, right?]. He saved the life of Ray Embrey [Jason Bateman], a corporate PR consultant, who because of that, tries to help John Hancock stand up on hios feet again. And guess what? Hancock ends up hitting on the wife of Ray Embrey [Jason Bateman], starring Charlize Theron.

This movie sounds funny with its twists but I am not sure it is the kind of comedy that would be able to make me ROTFL., you know what I am saying? The trailer does not look anything at all funny to me. Maybe I am just hard to pleased!
