Ra One (hindi movie)

A video game developer's world spirals out of control when his shape-shifting indestructible virtual creation becomes all too real.
i wanted to see this movie as it looked interesting in the trailers. we don't see much of this type of indian movies, futuristic, action, science fiction, etc. so you can understand me when i say i was interested as to how our hero literally became a superhero. i wondered how the story went, what exactly was it, and why.
well, i have finally finished watching the movie and i have to admit, at no point did i feel like i wanted to fast forward it. yes, since i watched it online, there were some parts that were too dark; many in fact. but ignoring that, as i continued watching the movie, it kept me glued, made me strain my ears as to why all whatever was going on was happening.
although futuristic gizmo and science fiction is not really my cup of tea, i enjoyed myself, especially with the humor at times. especially the intro. had me there for a while, but being someone who plays mmorpgs occassionally, i began to get an inkling of what was happening. hehehe and voila, what i thought was true lol.
it also helped that the songs were really catchy especially 'chammak challo' and 'dildara'. i especially loved the latter, which is a mix of stand by me as well. the tune really went well. the former is so catchy whenever i hear it, it makes me nod my head and my fingers and legs start their rythmic disposition ;p
although i wouldn't say you must go and watch it, i'd definitely say it was worth my time watching it. at least it wasn't a waste like some which i'll not name ehehe

i saw the movie here, hopefully it still works. most links didn't work for me, only the links under vidpe did. hope you guys enjoy.

Royal Family (korean drama)

For 18 years Kim In Sook has been ignored and never regarded as sister-in-law by her husband’s brother and sisters. She’s been isolated by everybody in her husband family and she lived like an invisible person. The thing got worse when her husband died in a helicopter crash. Since then, her mother-in-law tried to turn her into an interdicted person and deprived her of her guardianship of her son. Then Han Ji Hoon, who has a relationship with her mysterious past appeared as the lawyer of JK clan. And he witnessed her miserable situation. Then he decides to help her and resets his goal of life. That is, to turn In Sook, a woman who has been treated as rubbish into a Queen. Ji Hoon leads a double life in JK clan, and makes arduous effort for the goal of saving In Sook. Accidentally he finds that his feelings toward In Sook is more than gratitude and pity. She has become the only woman who makes his heart beating faster at her sight. It’s just an untutored feeling. And he could abandon it just for the sake of In Sook. The story of Kim In Sook’s battle against all odds to rise to the top of JK Group with the help of the lawyer Han Ji Hoon, a man who has supported her since they were children.
Don't be mistaken by the title thinking it is a period drama with royalty or basically just royalty. it's not. it's actually more of a chaebol drama where it's about a reallly rich family who is very powerful. thus in that sense, they're known as royal family.
it's not often that i enjoy these types of dramas as they have a lot of backstabbing, misunderstandings, tragedy, betrayal, basically mainly negative stuff.
and yes this drama had its share of those as well. it made me wish that our hero knew what was going on and hope that he'd still support the heroine and all. i hoped so much for that part to be over that i at times, forwarded some scenes just to get the angst over with lol.
it was that nerve wrecking. hehe the main draw for me was of course our hero, han ji hoon(ji sung) who played a prosecutor fabulously. made me drool. you guys might recognise him from the drama swallow the sun.
despite all the angst and drama going on, i enjoyed this show. something about it kept me going and not stopping halfway through. although a part of me wished there was a more confirmed ending but with open endings, you can always dream your own happy ending hehe and that's what i'm doing. i just wished i could see it. anyway this drama is fully up on many sites of course, but i watched them mainly on epdrama and dramacrazy, enjoy

He enters the Midheaven, a transitory place for spirits, only to find the spirit of Yon-hwa who has forgotten about him.

City Hunter (korean drama)

‘City Hunter’ is an original script based on the world-famous novel by Japan’s Tsukasa Hojo. Since it became public that Korea would be the first remake of this story into a drama, ‘City Hunter’ has been receiving worldwide attention. ‘City Hunter’ has switched the setting from Tokyo 1980 to Seoul 2011, and according to the original story structure, the protagonist becomes a city hunter and his character develops while resolving gratifying cases.
this is one of the perfect food for me. it has the right amount of ingredients-action, romance, sadness and some slight touches on humor. sigh i definitely enjoyed watching this and i think, this role suited lee min ho perfectly. but maybe i'm biased cos i like cool heroes who can fight and all. hehehe there were some really sad parts too, parts that made me blink my eyes more often than not. sigh as for the ending, i had hoped to see a little more, it kinda felt open. with the romance, with his dad among other things.
but overall, this is a good watch which i definitely recommend for action and romance fans. not only that, it also has humor, so much revenge and twists. it's all complete and online. i watched it on epdrama. enjoy!!!

i loved this show. ko hyun jung was amazing. well i don't really know the exact reasons as to why i loved it, but i do know that i watched this show whenever i could without stopping hehehe there's so many things all rolled into one here. for example, a love between two people who have differences professionally and personally learn to understand each other. it also concentrates on prosecutors and police officers and their daily lives. they show how a team put together all of a sudden grow to really work as a team and it was amazing. there were some parts that were so real, i myself felt embarassed at some situations for soo kyung. and of course, the action, the crime solving, mysteries all put together give this show such a great action feel.
it has all the elements i love, plus the fabulous acting by the cast, and i'm hooked. it's definitely a show to watch for all those action and romance lovers. hehehehe enjoy!! you'll find most of them on dramacrazy, tudou but there were some parts where there was no sound at all. so don't get worried ur speaker is spoilt or anything. it's just the part doesn't hav sound. enjoy once again!

Ghost in your Arms Again (korean movie)

Nanami Hoshino (Nanako Matsushima), a wealthy entrepreneur, marries Korean potter Kim Jun-ho (Song Seung-heon), and they both live a seemingly happy life. Then, one year after their marriage, Nanami is killed by a biker on her way home. This tragedy leaves Jun-ho completely devastated. At the hospital, Nanami’s ghost arises from her body, and upon meeting a ghost child (Mana Ashida), she realizes that she is a ghost whose presence cannot be seen. She then realizes that her death was no coincidence and Jin-ho is in imminent danger. Unable to communicate with normal humans, Nanami seeks help from the elderly psychic Unten (Kirin Kiki) in hopes of saving Jin-ho’s life.
if you're not into fantasy, supernatural and romance, i suggest you skip this. i, on the other hand, was totally satisfied with what they were able to do in this movie. it was short but fulfilling...spoilers ahead...
i just wish that it was a happier ending instead of tragic. i can't belive song seung heon talked in japanese. he was good. all in all, it's a good movie to pass time with if you have nothing better to do. enjoy it on mysoju.

What's Up Fox? (korean drama)

Single 33 year-old Go Byeong Hee works as a reporter for a sex magazine. She wants more romance and a more respectable life but isn't sure how to get it. 24-year-old Park Chul Su, mechanic and world traveler, is the younger brother of Byeong Hee's best friend. He's a free spirit and not concerned with what the world thinks. One night the two old family friends get drunk and wake up in bed together. Go Byeong Hee wants to forget it ever happened, especially since a good marriage prospect has just made an appearance. Unfortunately for her, Chul Su has other ideas....
this was actually on the backburner for me, but when i found out that the actress was the one from 'daemul', i immediately decided to watch this series and do not regret it one bit. ko hyun jung (go byeong hee) and chun jung myung (chul soo) were so real, i had to pinch myself at times. there are some who are going through these circumstances; the leads portrayed their roles perfectly. but the mother for me, heehhe she really surprised me. watch the series to find out.
i thought i'd stop watching the series halfway as i thought the plot was cliche and all, but it was carried out really well. the relationships make you raise your eyebrows, like it did mine initially hehehe it's more of a romcom( romantic comedy) with some slice of life as well. all the cast were absolutely wonderful. the only thing was that all the episodes are on tuduo, but when i went to mysoju to watch it, some parts worked and some didn't. if that happens with you too, what you can do is what i did. and that's to type each episode part in the search box and view all the links there and look at the one which works. i did that for all parts hehe at least, i got to watch. hope you all enjoy this.

Dae Mul (korean drama)

Seo Hye Rim is a former broadcast announcer who became the first female president of Korea. It's about her life and struggles to become the first female president and the lawyer who helps her.
this drama is different from what i usually tend to watch. it's more politically inclined and so realistic. the lead actors all portrayed their roles so well, esp seo hye rim. she was so innocent and determined. ha do ya was amazing. he was so patient, waiting for her, having a crush on her for the longest time ever. i really felt for him. i thought there must be very few of these men on earth now hehehe there were some sad moments, touching moments and surprisingly, funny moments as well in such a serious drama. kang tae san especially was wonderful i felt. he had such a strong role and showed it really well. if you're in the mood for some serious drama, but with some light heartedness at the same time, this one's for you. ha do ya especially made me root for him and i bet he'll do the same for you as well. i was definitely happy with the ending so you can know what that means hehehe you can find it on dramacrazy, epdrama, dramaload, mysoju though i mostly watched on the first as there were more options.

Secret Garden (korean drama)

The drama tells the story of Kim Joo Won (Hyun Bin), a seemingly perfect man who hides an arrogant and eccentric side, and Gil Ra Im (Ha Ji Won), a stuntwoman whose beauty and body are the object of envy amongst top actresses. One day they went deep into the mountains and entered a strange house, where a strange grandmother offered them chocolate to eat. The next day, they found themselves in the other's body
 i've just finished watching this series after putting it off and my heart's a flutter. hehehe it's very romantic with so much comic humor and a touch of magic as well. but at the same time, there are some sad moments too. those really made my heart ache at times.
but for me, what i really enjoyed was the courting among the leads and there were some doses of reality infused as well. i definitely recommend this drama esp as all the characters were so wonderful here. oska was so cuteeee especially when he's shouting and pissed off lol joo won was arrogant, cool, cute and mushy all at the same time hehe ra im was very cool, pretty and so shy at times too she did the embarassed and arrogant parts so well hehehe yoon seul was beautiful and really played her part so well, bitchy one moment and then sad another moment. even ah young, secretary kim, han tae sun and the action school cast (basically that's almost all lol) were wonderful. and of course, who can forget director park. lol
even better to watch this series is because at the end, they also have a special with ngs and top ten best scenes included which is awesome. you can find this on dramacrazy, epdrama, dramaload, mysoju etc etc enjoy!!!:)

MY Girlfriend is an Agent

Disguised as a travel agent, “Su-ji” is a government spy with six years’ experience who can’t reveal her career to her boyfriend “Jae-joon.” After she lies again, her boyfriend breaks up with her and leaves without notice, leaving her struggling alone with her sadness. Three years later, while chasing an industrial spy in disguise as a cleaning lady, she happens to run into Jae-joon. He’s become an international certified accountant, and seeing him throws her feelings into doubt. Jae-joon has become tired of his girlfriend’s constant and suspicious lies. In one phone call, he tells her he’s leaving Korea to study in Russia. Three years later, disguised as a distinguished international accountant, he enters the NIS (National Intelligence Service) as an agent in its overseas branch. He’s a newbie who got a late start, but he’s highly motivated and takes off on his first field mission, chasing a Russian crime organization, when he runs into Su-ji. It’s shocking to see her now as a hotel cleaning lady, but his affections for her are as strong as ever… Lying is part of the job, secrecy is the name of the game in "My Girlfriend is an Agent".
this movie was so hilarious, it made me laugh in every episode of the 12 episodes it had. kang ji hwan was awesome here. most of the comic relief was all due to him and he did his role so well it suited him perfectly. kim ha neul as his girlfriend and a pro agent was so cool hehehe i definitely recommend watching this movie, even if it's just for the comic relief ehehe it's all complete, online with english subs and on youtube. enjoy it and laugh your heart out till your sides ache.

Patiala House (hindi movie)

At Patiala House lives the Kahlon family ruled by Bauji.They follow his diktats as he tries to hold onto his 'Indian values' in the land of the 'goras'. The younger generations at the Patiala House wants to assert themselves and follow their dreams but are held back by their respect and love for Bauji and the shining example of Bauji's eldest son, Parghat Singh Kahlon aka Gattu. Gattu gave up his dream at the altar of Bauji's biases.
His reward: For the last 17 years he has been working in a corner store.
Will Bauji loosen his hold and let the youngsters find their own dreams instead of following his?
Will Gattu get a second chance to live his life?
What's more important: family or dreams?
And why must we choose one or the other?
it seems there have been mixed reviews to this movie. for me personally, i enjoyed it. initially, i thought that maybe this was another cricket movie with some romance and all, but as i watched on, i was proven wrong. it's more of an inspirational movie, to follow your dreams when you have the opportunity. recently, most akshay kumar movies have been similar, with comedy and romance, etc but this one is more subtle.
it's sad at times, gattu's hesitance and his siblings' opinions are all understandable, it's what we have faced at one point or another in our lives.
to follow a dream, you need support. if you don't have that, it can be quite tough to hold on to the dreams. this movie made my eyes tear at some parts, seriously, and i'm not one known to cry easily. my heart was all choked up sheesh, luckily i was alone hehe
well, you may want to try if you're up for an inspirational movie to boost yourself up as well hehe i watched this on youtube and i watched the one with eng subs so it was easier to understand in case i couldn't hear some words. hope you enjoy

Coffee House (korean drama)

Lee Jin Soo is a talented novelist who shot to stardom at a young age after writing a series of bestsellers. He finds two potential love interests in Seo Eun Young, a publishing executive, and Kang Seung Yeon, the daughter of the Page One Coffee Shop who is studying for the civil service examination and later becomes Jin Soo's secretary.
After so long, i've come out of my lazy shell (just for a while) to write about this drama that got me hooked for a few days. there were so many twists and turns, and it was so complex with all the relationship problems. and i usually don't go for that, but i was attracted to this series because of the leads as well.
the cast was superb in my opinion, all did a wonderful job here, i was frustrated at times though, as i felt that maybe it was getting a little slow occassionally but other than that, it was great. and i was really satisfied with the ending, because of my bias i guess. heehe i like this particular actress so he ended up with her, although i'm not gonna let the cat out of the bag. it was sad at times too, and hilarious at others. this is more a comedy romance, i feel, but at the same time, it makes me think it's realistic too. jin soo was fabulous, his role so eccentric and kang ji hwan managed to pull it off. that role suited him perfectly hehe
for a while, around ep 12, i thought the series had ended and i thought it was like an open end and that made me really frustrated as i thought i had seen 18 eps so i confirmed and voila, it was 18 eps. so i sat down again to watch the rest of the eps hehehe
well i was quite engrossed and enjoyed it myself. it's all online and complete with english subs. i watched on dramacrazy, it has links there. hope you enjoy it.

Anego (jap drama)

Naoko Noda, who works in a trading company, is called 'anego' by her younger co-workers. What is anego? It means older sister, but in this case, it's given as a nickname to Naoko, because she is like a big sister to her co-workers, who depend on her to give them advice about everything. This drama, based on a popular novel, depicts realistically how Naoko lives her everyday life, including her love life, the problems she faces and her uneasiness about the future.
i really enjoyed this series as it is very realistic just as the synopsis describes. in some ways, i find myself fortunate that i don't have to face the problems that she faces. that's so stressful, and i believe that we find that in reality too, not just reel.
there were comic moments and serious moments too, even psychological at times. the quotes that she gives usually in the beginning of each episode is note worthy. it also helps that the cast is good looking especially with our main leads, shinohara ryoko(naoko) and akanishi jin(akihiko,or kusa something...soryyy><)
i definitely recommend this drama, it's a good watch, 10 episodes which is just nice too, with a special as well. the special has some recaps and yes it starts off where ep 10 left off so it's kind of like the conclusion to the series with an open ending which is kind of obvious probably. you can find all the episodes on daily motion. enjoy all.

Brigadoon:Marin to(&) Melan (anime)

Marin is a typical junior high school girl with a loving adoptive family. Her life takes a drastic change when a mysterious mirage is seen in the sky above the entire Earth. Killer androids called Monomakia descend to Earth from the formation in the sky, which is called Brigadoon (named after a town in the musical of the same name, that only appears on Earth at certain times) and begin to hunt down Marin. As she seeks to escape, she discovers a blue "ampoule" in a shrine; from the ampoule comes a protector, a sword-carrying, gun-slinging alien called Melan Blue. Together they must save the Earth and deal with family crises, school prejudice and the police, and come to an understanding of Marin's past and Melan's unexplained mission, as well as learn to trust each other.
well this anime is like maybe 10 years old now. it was made in around 2000 and i have to admit, i thoroughly enjoyed it. of course there are loopholes here and there but hey, it's an anime. surprisingly, not only does it have its funny moments, and believe me, there were tons, but it's also really touching and sad. very realistic in some areas. well the idea anyway. the ending was a little open ended i guess although there were hints that they were happy together although it wasn't shown, only said in text. i wish i could have seen it though but oh well. it has been quite some time since i last enjoyed an anime so much. too bad it's finished now, hope to watch more great animes soon. all the episodes are on youtube so enjoy!
