The next evolution of the Marvel Cinematic Universe brings a founding member of The Avengers to the big screen for the first time with Marvel Studios. Armed with the astonishing ability to shrink in scale but increase in strength, master thief Scott Lang must embrace his inner-hero and help his mentor, Dr. Hank Pym, protect the secret behind his spectacular Ant-Man suit from a new generation of towering threats. Against seemingly insurmountable obstacles, Pym and Lang must plan and pull off a heist that will save the world.

DC and I took time again to watch this together...
I've never heard of any ant-man, probably DC did since he was an avid reader of comics. An amazing and entertaining movie this was!
P.S. Watch out for the mid-credit scene and post-credit scene (yup, 2 scenes). I'll be back for the sequel! :)

A's birthday celebration
We had a good and relaxing lunch at Ellenborough Market Cafe, Merchant Court Hotel. Food was good and of course, the durian pengkat had many people rushing for it.
A was on his best behaviour and enjoying the attention, food and occasion.

爸爸去哪儿
Recently I don't have the energy and time to watch long dramas... I switched to the more entertaining variety shows instead e.g Running Man, 我是歌手, 一路上有你, 爸爸去哪儿. ..
Really love this TV programme 爸爸去哪儿!
Really love this TV programme 爸爸去哪儿!
It features how the groups of 5 celebrity daddies and their child(ren) overcome a series of challenges in 3D2N trips to 6-7 different states of china. At the end of each tasks, both parents and children grew their bonds and understanding towards one another. I think I could not be able to survive some of the harsh conditions e.g. staying in rural village without water supply, cooking with limited ingredients, etc. I'm better off at home or on my staycations. :P
I always bug DC to watch it, so he could learn from the other daddies and also see for himself how different daddies have their similar challenges with their child. I also showed some of the episodes to A and B to teach them to share and not to fight.
I've completed Season 1 and Season 2. Season 3 is showing this month (next week!), can't wait!

Terminator Genisys
TERMINATOR GENISYS
CAST: Emilia Clarke, Arnold Schwarzenegger
DIRECTOR: Alan Taylor
LANGUAGE: English
RATING: PG13 - Violence and brief coarse language
RUNTIME: 126 mins
OPENING: 25 Jun 2015
GENRE: Sci-Fi
SYNOPSIS:
When John Connor (Jason Clarke), leader of the human resistance, sends Sgt. Kyle Reese (Jai Courtney) back to 1984 to protect Sarah Connor (Emilia Clarke) and safeguard the future, an unexpected turn of events creates a fractured timeline. Now, Sgt. Reese finds himself in a new and unfamiliar version of the past, where he is faced with unlikely allies, including the Guardian (Arnold Schwarzenegger), dangerous new enemies, and an unexpected new mission: To reset the future…
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
DC and I enjoyed this movie, even though it garnered generally negative ratings from the international critics. I guess the locals, like us still like it, as seen from the 4/5 popcorns given by the GV Movie Club member's reviews.
What's there to expect from this movie? With Arnold Schwarzenegger and his famous line "I'll be back", it'll be enough, isn't it? Not quite, in this Terminator 5, also look out for Lee Byung-hun (DC's favorite Korean actor) who acted as T-1000, Emilia Clarke (She was Daenerys Targaryen, the mother of dragons in the Game of Thrones) as Sarah Connor.
And yes, there was a post credit scene, do wait for it...

DC and me watched this separately at cinema during our free time...
Another daddy-rescuing-daughter movie after the Taken series... almighty father and quick thinking daughter was the key to the search and rescue mission. There was action in the sky, on the grounds and waters. The good ending is worth the watch, although the acting could be better, esp the mother's.
After the movie, I couldn't help but to feel for the victims who went through the recent Sabah quake!
