Black Swan & I Love Hong Kong

It's a bad idea to watch Black Swan and I Love Hong Kong back-to-back, in the same cinema, and in the same seat.

I love Hong Kong is a typically lousy lunar new year production. So, it's not a surprise. It's like 小人物的心声 on steroids.

Despite the awards this film has collected, I didn't think Black Swan was that great.

I mean... it has pretty people (Oh! Winona Ryder and that sexy Mila Kunis), loud dramatic music, great make-up and costumes, some sex scenes... and of course, the atas cultural activity called ballet. But I don't get it. Not a fan of uptight perfectionists, especially female ones. Boring.

We are gonna catch the King's Speech this evening. I hope it lives up to its name.
