「我離港前到過一間精神科醫院。當時有位病人禮貌地問,一個以作為世上最悠久民主政體而自傲的國家,如何能夠將此地交給一個政治制度非常不同的國家,且既沒諮詢當地公民,又沒給予他們民主的前景,好讓他們捍衞自己的將來。一個隨行同事說,奇怪,香港提出最理智問題的人,竟在精神科醫院。」彭定康 金融時報

“During a visit to a mental hospital before I left Hong Kong, a patient politely asked me how a country that prided itself on being the oldest democracy in the world had come to be handing over his city to another country with a very different system of government, without either consulting the citizens or giving them the prospect of democracy to safeguard their future. Strange, said one of my aides, that the man with the sanest question in Hong Kong is in a mental hospital.”Chris Patten Financial Times

年終有冇嘢想:CLICK - your life forward, backward, pause, slow and ......

年終有冇嘢想:
CLICK - your life forward, backward, pause, slow and ......


My cousin brought back many movie DVDs from overseas, one of them is called "CLICK" . Since, I am not an Adam Sandler fans, so I didn't pay to see this movie in the cinema when it was being shown, but I watched that DVD recently. This morning I read about several people's blogs that they wish TIME can be frozen................these triggered me to write the movie review about it.


CLICK sourced from yahoo movie dot come
命運自選台

Starring: Adam Sandler, Kate Beckinsale, Christopher Walken.

Directed by: Frank Coraci


The story is about, a workaholic architect, who has been overlooking his family in favor of his career, comes across an universal remote that allows him to perform fast forward, fast backward, pause, to look at his LIFE, just like all functions on our DVD player. One thing he can not change is his age he can not revert back to be a kid with the backward click, but he can see as a bystander.



So with his remote control, he could click pause or slow to keep the best moments, also he could play fast forward to skip the bad times and just living the GOOD times of his remaining life. By doing that he overlooked many important events in his life, like the growing up of his kids, the death of his father. His kids grew up without his involvement and knowledge. His wife divorced him but he didn't know that because it was being skipped by playing fast forward too far. So he grew old TOO fast and was dying TOO soon. HOW could he revert back??? by playing fast backward to rewind his LIFE ??? NO...... he couldn't.



I like the message Adam Sandler wishes to bring out in this movie. If one just seeing the end results without going through the procedures ONE shall/ will miss too much in one's life and being incomplete. Without the difficult times and failures one can not learn from them. So either good or bad we must live through it. Furthermore, people should put aside their work after working hours and should look after the family more. ONE should strike for a balance between his/her career and his/ her family life.

多謝回應,Adam Sandler
千方百計想不做諧星,
但都不成功。

Click 之前有幾部都是慘淡收場

其中有:
Spanglish, 是一位五星級大廚,但老婆仔女卻問題多多,令他十分煩惱。

後尾來了個祇識講小小英語的新移民家傭,發生了微妙的關係,雖然沒有越軌行為。

說的是不要為小小歡愉,放棄大好家庭。

結果老婆子女都納回正軌。

你睇好多dvd喎,
有些戲院無上嘅你都有看,
家裏一定有好多dvd收藏了!

系囉!

小弟冇乜多,書多,Cassette 帶多,VHS錄音帶多, VCD DVD影碟多。 睇完就幾年都唔再睇, 又唔捨得棄掉,或送給別人,慌佢地扭手拋入廢物箱。

三個書架,擺到七成滿嗮!

遲啲要再買多個 『宜家』 Billy 大書櫃了。
