movies: the Asian Sniper tries to Kill off Mall cop and doing it pretty good in Asia.











I’m just off the movie screen today with the chinese’s The Sniper and Paul Blart: Mall Cop.
The Sniper is an interesting story to watch. Although the whole set up is very Chinese, it’s kinda board the whole police academy, sniper in the good and bad side of the fight and the psychotic killer and the Matrix-esque special effects. It’s all a bit old really.
You just can’t help to feel the little bitterness when you watch it because it’s the very movie that’s taken off the 2007 line up when the Chinese star photo scandal break.
Not that it meant much but audience personal expression aside. It is not really an out of this world movie experience. And it still kept me wondering if the Chinese movie production ever going to get any more creativity out there?
I have the best wishes and prayers that they’d do better.

As for the latter, Paul Blart: Mall Cop is a movie long time coming really. I wouldn’t know how would it be compare to Observe and Report, another hyped mall cop theme movie by the oh so popular now Seth Rogen but hell it is great to see Kevin James back on the big screen strutting his comedy action.
It’s witty, funny and really cool. I’m not always the best friend of comedy because there’s just too many brainless stupid one out there that just left me empty rather than laugh my heart out. This one is pretty cool. What would be cooler is that Malaysia theatre would show it in the Christmas rather than in the hot, hot pre summer season.
So fancy a fat mall security inspired to be a cop stopping all the cool action flying bad people in his natural habitat, the Mall? Yup, catchy right. The story is as catchy and funny as this.
