Nice Girls Don’t Get Rich - 75 Kesalahan Perempuan dalam Mengelola Uang, oleh Lois P. Frankel, Ph.D, adalah sebuah buku yang saya beli karena saya sebal dimarahi dan terus menerus disebut - sebut sebagai ‘The Big Spender’ oleh suami saya (Saya kan seorang Istri! Seorang Ibu! Saya memang diciptakan untuk menghabiskan uang bukan?!). Saya lebih sebal lagi karena menurut saya, saya juga turut memberikan kontribusi bagi kondisi... 

I must say I still feel the void after watching the premiere. Casino Royalle in Martin Campbell’s hand had clothed James Bond in a new and fresh tuxedo. Many had doubt Daniel Craig’ ability in performing this new image. I remembered looking at the commercial and decided that Pierce Brosnan was so ‘much more handsome’ and fit my Bond image than Craig. Surprise…surprise, Daniel Craig blue eyes and strict lips... 

I started to believe that one can’t expecting too much from a movie based on a game. In The Name Of The King, is definetly a disapointment. I guess Max Payne is another one so close to the upper grade; almost ok. I blame Max Wahlberg as the biggest magnet for me to watch it. His latest hits if not achieved excellent point from critic, at least entertaining. Most of them are a mixture of action, comedy and a bit of drama. One thing... 

I can’t talk much about Eagle Eye since I’ve got the 3rd rows from the big screen in its premiere. With so little space between me and those faces and speed and movements and trying to keep up with the story…the best I can say about the Eagle Eye is that you will have to pay close attention to not loosing the details. Michelle Monagan looks a bit older than Shia laBeouf, which goes quite well with the storyline until they... 

Saya penggemar Blitz Megaplex. Sejak pertama kali menonton di Blitz, kami (saya dan suami) tidak pernah lagi menonton ditempat lain. Konsep ruang dan pelayanannya, saya pikir, yang jadi nilai tambah buat mereka. Namun saat ini saya ingin menuliskan beberapa point yang menurut saya sangat disayangkan dan sebaiknya diperhatikan, tidak saja oleh Blitz manajemen, tetapi juga bagi siapa saja yang bergerak dibidang usaha jasa dan pelayanan.  Read More →

Leonardo di Caprio has proved his professionalism in mastering a character, though his character was obviously need to learn so much more about fall in the same hole. We’ve seen him being used in Iraq, again in Jordan…but still believed in his boss so much to deliver a new plot and share every single detail with him…seemingly a little bit contrast for what a smart field agent such him should do! Russel Crowe was definetely... 

The trailer was cleverly made. I imagine a movie filled with wars and some small stories tucked along the film. Remember how Gengis Khan described in Night at The Museum - Shawn Levy as a barbarian who love to torture his hostages but actually being so lonely in his childhood (and ended up crying on Ben Stiller shoulders)…well, never occured to me that those line were ‘in a way is actually a summary’ of Gengis Khan’s... 

Even only to pronounce it soundlessly, I can’t stop myself to sing it in a tone ABBA had sung years ago. Mamma mia, the latest released movie of 2008 surely filled my time with joy, I didn’t expected. Maybe because the presumption that it was only a comedy, an easy to watch, and a musical one so I weren’t expecting too much. The boldness and intensity of ABBA’s lyrics claim just the right path on every screen, every... 

Dalam waktu singkat judul buku buah tangan Andrea Hirata ini sudah begitu terkenal, khususnya di Indonesia. Artikel mengenai buku dan film yang baru saja dirilis dengan judul yang sama itu secara komprehensif sudah dapat dilihat di wikipedia. Namun jika anda ingin melihat buku ini dari sudut pandang yang berbeda, mungkin ulasan pada  qyu.blogspot.com dapat menjadi salah satu titik tolak. Seringkali kita terpaku pada isi buku yang begitu...
