Back after a LONGGG hiatus

Hey hey Everyone~ How have you all been????
Man, it's been a while since I blogged... 'My Name is Rin' has become rather dusty uhuk uhuk~~~~ I shall clean it up immmmeeeediatelyyyy!

May has been an increadible month so far~ I watched 3 superb movies! I guess I shall put some reviews here for you guys, so that you can check it out or maybe watch it for yourselves~ *Beware, this blog post may contain spoilers :p ahaahahahaha* Aside from reviews, I shall also post some activities and events happening in May~ Hopefully these events shall interest you cause it definitely made me super excited! har har har

Okie Movie reviews here we gooo~

Movie num. 1: The Avengers
I admit, this was a GREAT movie! It was not only action-packed but it was also filled with hillarious scenes! This movie caught my full attention at the very beginning, and made me glued to my seat until the very end (I tried my very best not to go to the loo cause it was THAT good).
I liked how all the characters had their own parts and roles in this film (although Tony Stark was sort of the main dude in the movie hahah) and bits of each characters' pasts were slowly revealed along the way, making viewers that have not seen the previous Thor, Captain America and Iron Man series not to lose out in the story at all. In a sense it had both the past and present shown in this movie which I thought was a very clever tactic by the director to make viewers fall in love with their favourite superheroes all over again~ Renewed love or admiration as they say~ kekeekekekeke
I truly think that the Avengers deserve a 5 star rating, cause it did make me go WOW throughout the whole movie.

Movie num. 2: Safe
If you like the sound of gunfire and mafia gang fights, then this is the perfect movie for you~ This movie has a blend of Chinese, Russian and American cultures and to top it all off, it was a blend of mafia business cultures! There were lots and I mean LOTS of gang fights, shoot outs and killings in this movie. And the Chinese 11 year old girl (Mei) saw all of it happening right in front of her eyes! Man, imagine experiencing something like that at such a fresh age. Being a genius 11 year old is not always fun and dandy. You get kidnapped on your way home from school, forced into memorizing numbers and market values for a scary Chinese mafia gang leader and then captured and chased around a city in the US by Russian mobsters and American cops... WOOOO.... The best part is, Mei befriends this ex-American cop with incredible shooting and fighting skills in this movie. So what caused the relationship between Mei and Luke (the ex cop) to sprout? What made the girl so precious to these men? Well now~ U gotta watch the movie to find out~ heeeheee~
Overall, the storyline was impressive. The little bond between Luke and Mei really touched me, and the dark disturbing truths of the mafia world and political corruption made this movie even better~ :) I would rate it 4 stars.

Movie num. 3: War of the Arrows (Korean)
This movie was actually released a year ago under a different name (Arrow, The Ultimate Weapon). It was very popular in Korean movie charts and later gained international recognition. I found this movie to be one of the best historical korean movies of all time. It doesn't have your typical war movie ending (peace is gained, lovers reunited... etc etc) which to me was a major bonus for this film.
The sister-brother bond and husband and wife loyalty portrayed in this film was very heart tugging- imagine your brother fighting with just a bow and some arrows through swarms of enemies just to get you safely home and your husband sacrificing his all in order to be reunited with you (his wife) despite being in a different hostage camp miles away.
The arrow duels were also amazing to watch. The normal war movies I have watched have mainly sword fights and the typical charge and attack strategies. But this movie was about a chase between 2 parties from different sides, using bow and arrows as the main weapon of destruction!
I rate this movie another 4 stars cause it was unique in storyline and battle methods.

So what do you think of my reviews?? It was my first try at reviewing movies~ Hopefully it'll get better in the future :D

Now then, activities and events of the month of May:

1) Mother's DAY
Are you guys ready to spend this special day with your moms??? getting presents are not the only things you can do for you mom on her 'day'... Just spending some quality time talking to her, watching dramas/movies/tv shows together, or even having/preparing a meal for her are just some of the simple meaningful gestures that also shows just how much she means to you~ Sometimes being simple can truly make a person happy :) 
  
2) U-kiss at Hari Belia 25th May
Location: Putrajaya, Malaysia
A free concert for all Kissmes out there!!!!!!! But I warn you of the crowds though~

3) Block B at Kenanga Mall, Kuala Lumpur -26th May
A little surprise for Block B fans out there~ Your boys are coming to Malaysia!!! Details about this event can be found in Block B Malaysia Fans on Facebook~

Alright then folks~ I hope that you enjoyed my blog post after such a long hiatus. Sorry if it seems rather bland... my blogging brain has not yet quite activated itself especailly when I am fresh from my final exams hahah~  I promise i'll bring in more events and interesting feeds in the future~ till then Toodles~ and take care~~~
