[69] I Spied....

Well... Got myself a job today...
Dunno whether i'm getting myself into trouble again like last time..
But i'm not going to discuss this today...
See how i'll be doing in a few weeks' time...

Went out with Kok Chow to catch a random show in cinema today...
TIGER WOOHOO had a full house... For 4 CONSECUTIVE showings!!!
So there's only 3 to choose from:
1- The Toothfairy, starring Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson
2- The Spy Next Door, starring Jackie Chan
3- Legion, starring... ar who???

Well.. We eventually went for The Spy Next Door...
But i'm not giving up on the other 3...
Probably gonna watch them next week... By all means...
Even if it means watching them alone...


Back to The Spy Next Door...
It's everything you could expect from a Jackie Chan show...
From laughter to action...BANG!!! BOOM!!! POW!!!
Just imagine a hybrid between previous Jackie Chan shows and The Pacifier (starring Vin Diesel... ring any bells?)...

Babysitting... What a pain in the a*s...

But... (OK... There's always a but!!!)
It does seems that Jackie is getting old...
All the moves and kung fu are, indeed, getting rusty...
Less intense... But nevertheless cool!!!
Recall all those times where he uses stuffs from the scenes themselves to wipe out the bad guys??
They got some of those too!!!

Now... To the good stuffs...
There are a few things which i really like bout this show...
And one of it is how the villains are portrayed...
The strong Russian accent... Huge ego... Hot outfits...
Yeah... That's what we're talking bout!!!
Who want's a sloppy lame geek as the bad guy anyway....

The one thing that shocked me the most was this guy...


Oh man!!!! Seemed familiar???
You could have seen him in Hannah Montana...
Billy Ray Cyrus!!!!
Yup... Cyrus... Sounds familiar???
Miley must be damn proud of her dad... Or is it the other way round???
Anyway... His appearance was really unexpected...
I admit it... i didn't looked at the poster properly prior to the show...
His deep country accent and language really added a whole new twist to the show...

And... Last but not least...
You can't forget the most important thing in SPY shows...
Gadgets!!! Try recalling movies like Spy Kids and Cody Banks...
Even at the beginning of the show i was already amazed by them...
They're portable.. Simple to use (no thick instruction manual needed)...
And... They are daily-usage-friendly...

See what i mean.... Toasting bread with a flame blower!!!

It's indeed a great show to watch...
Again.. Just try the show for yourself for at least once before giving any comments...
Different people might have different taste...

3 pats on the back:

the pacifier is better or this one?
i think his stunts are a bit rusty since rush hour 3...
but still he's my favourite actor la.. looking forward for the karate kid..

 

Well... You can't substitute Jackie with any other actors... His creativity is off the charts... Both The Pacifier and The Spy Next Door are equally good i would say... in terms of action and humor...
But i guess The Pacifier has a slight victory over The Spy Next Door because the soundtracks in The Spy Next Door sucks!! James Bond-like soundtracks!! (Ya... I totally hate James Bond!!)

 

actually Jackie Chan is so predictable.. he will make funny funny movement while fighting the bad guy
