Singapore 'star' Fiona Xie got a voice-over in here That is just so ugly ... can't see the 'real' acting But Shawn is way to coool!! ^^

Title: 3D Sex & Zen: Extreme Ecstasy Chinese Title: 3D肉蒲团之极乐宝鉴 Year: 2011 Country: Hong Kong Running Time: 118 min [theatrical] 129 min [director's cut] Director: Christopher Sun Genre: Erotic Rating: ??
The first erotic movie in 3D I can't say anything about it! Just watch it "normal" format
3D Sex & Zen: Extreme Ecstasy is a new installment of the Sex and Zen series, but more focused on drama unlike the comedic tone of the previous films.
What can I say about it! The story sucks that's for sure! Maybe the first 40 minutes was OK But after it it became ridiculous and no sense!
Penis transplantation WTH.. Well I have to say its 'old' because that was also used in Sex And Zen Part 1
The rape scene was so fake! Hello ... she's raped, but why she enjoy it? LOL
OK and the 'little brother' from The Elder Of Bliss.. Are u kidding me?! Well seems like its also adapted from Sex & Zen part 2
And the torture on the horse OMG That's looks damn painful! But wasn't it use in another movie before?
So in short.. The movie sucks! Many things are adapted from the other Sex & Zen trilogy So its nothing new or something ... Just a copy-paste It couldn't happen in real life LOL Well not everything ....
Many complain about to less nude in here And to many fighting scenes Well I'm not so sure about that Only the last part was 'fighting' And the nude part... It's a still a erotic movie and not porn!
I must say thumbs up for the Japanese AV stars Saori Hara & Suou Yukiko Also thumbs up for Leni Lan Because without them it won't be a movie in the catergry III So actually they save the movie for the nude scenes! And especially Suou Yukiko..
I feel so sorry for Saori Hara actually She got a 'sex' scene with Wong Shu Tong OMG he could be his grandfather So OMG lucky bastard LOL
Well actually very disappointed about Vonnie Lui performance Well first OMG she just got a voice-over because she plays a man And she just showed her boobs once and that is? Are u in the wrong movie? And I think her character wasn't necessary ... What she's doing here? Or only because she's representing Hong Kong? Well better get Winnie Leung! She's much better in this kind of movies!
And about Hayama Go or Hayama Hiro... Or whateva u want to call him! He's damn NOT hot in here!!
Well a message after the movie Love isn't all about sex! You can also love without sex! That's for sure

Chinese Title: 刺青
Year: 2007
Country: Taiwan
Running Time: 98 min
Director: Zero Chou
Genre: Drama/Gay
Rating: 7,9
So this one is better or Drifting Flowers?
Well I don't know but in think Drifting Flower was a little bit better.
They're 2 different stories so actually I can't compare.
Only they are both lesbian movies from the same director.
But anyway my rating is a little bit lower than Drifting Flower LOL
Interest story but a little bit weird!
It's an open ending right?
The Xiao Lu's character is a little bit similar to mine.
Only without the webcam girl part of course.
She's just a girl that living in her past.
The good memory she don't want to forget!
After watching this movie I really want to get a tattoo LOL
But I'm just so chicken!
Great performance by Rainie & Isabella
In this movie you see an another part from Rainie.
Beside the cute side you also see the sexy drama side LOL
So pity that Isabella already leave the entertainment world!
She's just a great actress!
She just fit every role!
Isabella & Rainie are from the same age.
But in the movie Isabella plays someone who's much much older!
Nice to see Kris Shen & Jay Shih
Both guys I saw in Gloomy Salad Days.
But what I can say?!
They both don't look like in here LOL
Love them much much more in GSD!
Also nice to see Ivy Chen in a cameo role.
And Pay Chih Ying, who was also in Drifting Flowers
Anyway if you curious about the kiss scene.
Go check it online LOL
I got it on the Special feature DVD under Deleted Scene HAHAHA

English Title: Inner Senses Chinese Title: 異度空間 Year: 2002 Country: Hong Kong Running Time: 100 min Director: Law Chi Leung Genre: Psychological Horror Rating: 7.6
The beginning was so good but so ridiculous ending! If they filmed the whole movie about Karena's 'vision' it was way better! The turn over in the movie wasn't on the right time I think The sound makes it a little bit creepy! Although it was more in the genre of drama instead horror!
One of my favo actress in the movie industry! Karena is the best! ^^ The last movie from Leslie Cheung before he suicide on 1 April 2003! This is also my first movie of him!
But after watching this movie: DO YOU BELIEVE IN GHOST??

English Title: Re-Cycle Chinese Title: 鬼域 Year: 2006 Country: Hong Kong/Thailand Running Time: 108 min Director: The Pang Brothers Genre: Horror Rating: 7.4
The first 30 min was really "freaks me out"! The apartment scenes were so creepy! A lot because the music I think! The sounds of the whole movie creeps me out! BUT when Angelica's character Ting Ying come in the 'Re-Cycle' world it become a little bit drama with a fantasy style! It ruined the genre of the movie! HORROR! [I actually don't mind about it] But the special effects really saved the movie! The effects in the 'Re-Cycle' world was really wonderful! Although once again! I don't understand the ending? Suddenly there are two of her? WHY? She's one of the abandoned ones? OR.....? I don't know! If someone know explain please LOL
Strong acting of Angelica & Zeng Ai Qi!
There's a message in this movie! Just watch it by yourself ^^ And try to figure out which one I mean!

English Title: 14 Blades Chinese Title: 錦衣衛 Year: 2010 Country: Hong Kong/China Running Time: 114 min Director: Daniel Lee Genre: Action
I don't know why the reviews are so bad from this movie! It wasn't that bad right? Maybe the plot is simple but I still like it!
Like the chemistry between Donnie Yen & Vicki Zhao! I never like Wu Chun! BUT he was the most eye catching in here! It is also the first movie I watched from him! Also from Kate Tsiu! After this role I hate her more than ever! She still can't act! Her voice is really irritating me! Qi Yu Wu is playing a bad guy again!!
