Surrogates (2009)

Rating:	★★
Category:	Movies
Genre:	Science Fiction & Fantasy

Wasn't really keen to watch this, after my colleague's dismal critique. But one of my friends wanted to catch a show, and I can't imagine going to watch "500 Days of Summer" with a big burly guy :P The plot was decent, the CGI wasn't that fantastic.

Overall, there's no dramatic "peak", so it's felt kinda flat. There are some twists, but noting that's not been done before. Go watch on a weekday, or wait for the DVD.

Moral of the movie:
To feel pain is human...

Another serious show from Adam Sandler. More of drama than comedy, it has its funny moments. Especially Merman, and "Shm-Ira" :P Oh, lotsa sexual jokes and cussing, it's M18, so dun bring your young ones there.

Cloudy with a chance of meatballs (2009)

Rating:	★★★★
Category:	Movies
Genre:	Animation

Absolutely enjoyable! Thoroughly entertaining on the big screen, colorful, bright and silly, kids will really enjoy it. It's made for the kids, with kids' humor a-plenty. And there are enough visual gags & jokes that the adults will chuckle at. The voice-acting is superb, so you'll get absorbed into the story. Oooo, the use of pixels and nerd-jokes and cliches - catchy! geeky! funny! wonderful! so 80s!

The people who made this aren't afraid to leave their signature all over the movies, from the opening intro right up to the end credits; And they make fun of all nationalities, so nobody feels left-out; And it even got Mr. T* in it! So you betta go watch it, 'foo!

Watami Singapore

Rating:	★★
Category:	Restaurants
Cuisine:	Japanese / Sushi
Location:	ION Orchard #B3-23 2 Orchard Turn Singapore 238801

Mmmm, in terms of service, its staff are much more prompt and ready, and warrant more than 2.5 stars. However, the food selection is much lesser though, as I don't recall seeing bento sets on the menu.

Dinner at Watami (05 Oct '09)

Last night went to Ion@Orchard, to try out the Watami restaurant. The menu looks ok from the menu, and the decor looks pretty ok. The way to order your food is pretty "duh" though, cos they are no codes to identify food items when placing order. "No system "ah, as my friend puts it. Oh, this is a super duper belated birthday treat for my army buddy, hope he enjoyed the company better than the food!~ :P
