I have watched 2 movies in 2 days ( Prestige and Death Note), and i am absolutely tired. Been coming home at 11 plus for this few days, hanging out with friends everyday.
Death Note was not a bad movie, but compared to the manga and anime, it was like heaven and earth. The manga and anime had a more complete version of the story as the movie skipped some parts of the plot, also, some of the plot were not from the manga. The begining of the movie was extremely boring as it was about introducting the characters and only after that then the plot unfolded itself. I cannot blame the director, for he has anticipated that some of the movie goers would have never heard of the manga Death Note, much to say read it before. I admire ‘L’ for his thinking is different than other people, he is able to think more deeply than other people, maybe thats why he needs so much sweets and snack to keep himself awake. You can also see Light changing from a person who wants to save the world into a person who is able to sacrifise everything he loves for the sake of defeating ‘L’, which shows his immaturity.
I had something more out of Prestige, which was about 2 magicians fighting for the honour of being the best magician in Britain. One of the character was actually living a life of lies, which made me realised something about humans. Everyone one of us has this side of us deep down in our hearts which does all the ‘dirty’ things and we would never show this side to anyone. The reason why people do not show this side to others is because even they themselves feel ashame of that side of them. Also, showing this side to others would immediately make them avoid you, for this side of you is too horrific. The plot of the show was quite complicated, with lots of flashbacks and illusions being shown. The movie also shows what is the price to pay for too much fame and glory. It really is a movie that excites the mind into thinking more about human behaviour, and this is the first movie i saw that does not have a fairy tale ending.
Was taking bus home today at night when i saw my ex-classmate’s boyfriend, i said hi to him and as we talked, i found out that he had broken up with her a month ago. I was amazed at how fast the relationship changed, 2 months ago, they were still together holding hands, and within a month, the relationship has turned sour until the point of needing a breakup.
Love is not just saying to the person ‘I love you’, its more than that. Love is about commitment. For once the novelty of a relationship wears off, one of the things that would support this relationship would be how committed you are in keeping your promises such as “I’ll love you forever” or “We’ll never be apart”. If you are not able to commit to your relations, than do not love a person so easily, get to know her better in person first before taking it one step further. Why are more and more young couples divorcing while their parent’s relationship are still going strong? This is because youngsters nowadays jump into a relationship too quickly.
And i now leave this to let you ponder about your own life.
