Valentine's Day : The Movie

Managed to catch this star studded movie! And what made it even more star studded was that I even saw Marion Caunter, a local TV host, in the same cinema as well!

I liked the movie although some may say it really lacked direction as well as plot. But for me, i think its a short story of various people's lives on Valentines Day and how it unfold for them.I think every did quite well, even Taylor Swift. Although its her first time on the big screen,she can improve. But yes, I like the movie because it was light, but also the emotional bits tugged my heart strings.

My rating for the movie: 7/10 :-)

*******

Well, this year's valentines day falls on the 1st day of Chinese New year. Hence I thinkmost florists and restaurants will not be able to cash in on this day. Hey, even I dont have to spend a single cent this year (LOL!!) But of course, if i had a choice, i wouldn't be grumbling if I had to spend it on a special some1 this year.

Some people argue that Ppl should not only celebrate this 1 day, but should be doing it for 365 days a year. However, in my opinion, of course a person is expected to shower love to their loved ones 365 days a year. But on special days like Birthdays, anniversaries, Valentine's you do something out of the ordinary. And days like these break the monotony of a couple's life together.

And of course, there are some who argue its over commercialised, but which festive period in the world isn't commercialised? That doesn't mean we should stop celebrating it right??

Just my few cents worth.

In a few day time we will be celebrating Chinese New year as well as Valentine's (although Valentine's isnt an official holiday). Whatever it is, I hope all you readers celebrate this special days with the people you love and cherish.


Boodyboy, out!!!
