Suka aku mengatakan bahawa cerita ini adalah cerita yg paling GEREK yg pernah aku tonton. Filem SEPI adalah filem arahan Kabir Bhatia (director yg buat filem CINTA). Dengan script yg baik dan para pelakon yg outstanding...aku salute jalan cerita yg sebegini. Something different I would say kerana selalunye cerita 'mat salleh' je yg buat jln cerita mcm ni. Contohnye filem "Babel".."Crash" dan "Love Actually."

Filem SEPI...tiga cerita hebat didalam satu filem. Sama seperti "CINTA" (Cinta is good but Sepi is better!!!). Dgn para pelakon seperti Vanidah Imran, Afdlin Shauki (aku suka kalau si dek ni belakon) Nasha Aziz dan Eja....sudah cukup buat aku duduk melekat kat depan screen tv. Lakonan yg mantap..tidak berlebih-lebih dan yang paling penting.. logik!. Soundtacknye pun baik.

Ikutilah kisah Adam...Sufi dan Imaan...tiga cerita yg membuat kita menangis..ketawa dan realise bahawa "cinta tidak datang hanya sekali."

Birth Name: Shahrukh Khan.
Date of Birth: 2nd November 1965.

Khan was born to Muslim parents of Pathan ethnicity in New Delhi, India. His father, Taj Mohammed Khan was a freedom fighter from Peshawar, Pakistan. His mother Lateef Fatima was the adopted daughter of Major General Shah Nawaz Khan of the Janjua Rajput clan, who served as a General in the Indian National Army of Subash Chandra Bose.

Khan has an elder sister named Shehnaz. He attended St. Columba's School where he was accomplished in sports, drama and academics. He won the Sword of Honour, an annual award bequeathed to the student who embodies most the spirit of the school. He later attended the Hansraj College (1985-1988) to earn an Honors degree in Economics.

Since then, he has been part of numerous commercial successes and has delivered a variety of critically acclaimed performances. During his years in the Indian film industry, he has won thirteen Filmfare Awards, seven of which are in the Best Actor category.

While some of Khan's best-known films: Dilwale Dulhaniya Le Jayenge (1995), Kuch Kuch Hota Hai (1998), Chak De India (2007) and Om Shanti Om (2007), remain some of Bollywood's biggest hits, films like Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham (2001), Kal Ho Naa Ho (2003), Veer-Zaara (2004) and Kabhi Alvida Naa Kehna (2006) have been top-grossing productions in the overseas market, making Khan one of the most successful actors of Hindi cinema.

Beauty has a price. Soraya is a young trainee nurse who is starting to feel disaffected by her life. A chance introduction to the world of glamour piques her earlier ambition to be a star. She does not succeed at first, but she is told that the forbidden practice of susuk can help. She has to make a choice whether to stay the way she is, or cross the line... Meanwhile, Suzana is a prominent diva with an air of mystery. She has long been a practitioner of the black arts due to her use of the extreme susuk keramat. Every time she violates a taboo, a human life is required. We follow the eventful lives of these two women until we get to the true secret of this dreaded charm.

Starring: Ida Nerina, Adlin Aman Ramlie, Diana Rafar, Sofea Jane, Hairie Othman and Noorkhiriah

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Setiap yang gemilang pasti ada harganya. Soraya ialah seorang pelatih jururawat yang mula resah dengan kehidupannya yang rutin. Dia ingin mengejar cita-citanya untuk menjadi bintang. Usahanya menghadapi jalan buntu, hingga dia diperkenalkan kepada amalan susuk yang mungkin dapat meningkatkan serinya. Dia harus membuat keputusan sama ada terus begini atau melintasi garisan ke alam lain. Sementara itu Suzana ialah seorang diva yang penuh misteri. Dia telah lama mengamalkan ilmu hitam akibat penggunaan susuk keramat yang amat merbahaya. Setiap kali Suzana melanggar pantang, korban manusia diperlukan. Kita ikuti hidup cemas kedua-dua wanita ini hingga tersingkap rahsia sebenar amalan terlarang itu.

Para Pelakon: Ida Nerina, Adlin Aman Ramlie, Diana Rafar, Sofea Jane, Hairie Othman and Noorkhiriah

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The journeys of the two women in their lives are driven by a good flow that takes the audience along the story effortlessly. The full puzzle power of "Susuk" is clearly unleashed at the end of the story. It's a smart way to make a good movie!

Aku terpaksa menonton dua kali utk memahami jalan cerita ini. Dua peranan penting yg dilakonkan oleh Diana Rafar dan Ida Nerina sudah cukup mengelirukan aku. Siapa dia Suraya (Diana Rafar) dan Suzana (Ida Nerina)? Tetapi setelah aku menonton buat kali yg kedua akhirnya kekeliruanku terjawab juga. Haaaaaa...sekiranya anda belum lagi menyaksikan cerita "SUSUK"...jomlah nonton...hahahaha.

Nicholas Charles Sparks was born in Omaha, Nebraska on December 31, 1965, the second son of Patrick Michael (1942-1996) and Jill Emma Marie (Thoene) Sparks (1942-1989). His siblings are Michael Earl Sparks (b. Dec. 1964), and Danielle Sparks (b. Dec. 1966, d. June, 2000). As a child, he lived in Minnesota, Los Angeles, and Grand Island, Nebraska, finally settling in Fair Oaks, California at the age of eight. His father was a professor, his mother a homemaker, then optometrist's assistant. He lived in Fair Oaks through high school, graduated valedictorian in 1984, and received a full track scholarship to the University of Notre Dame.

After breaking the Notre Dame school record as part of a relay team in 1985 as a freshman (a record which still stands), he was injured and spent the summer recovering. During that summer, he wrote his first novel, though it was never published. He majored in Business Finance and graduated with high honors in 1988.

He and his wife Catherine, who met on spring break in 1988, were married in July, 1989. While living in Sacramento, he wrote his second novel that same year, though again, it wasn't published. He worked a variety of jobs over the next three years, including real estate appraisal, waiting tables, selling dental products by phone, and started his own small manufacturing business which struggled from the beginning. In 1990, he collaborated on a book with Billy Mills, the Olympic Gold Medalist and it was published by Feather Publishing before later being picked up by Random House. (It was recently re-issued by Hay House Books.) Though it received scant publicity, sales topped 50,000 copies in the first year of release.

He began selling pharmaceuticals and moved from Sacramento, California to North Carolina in 1992. In 1994, at the age of 28, he wrote The Notebook over a period of six months. In October, 1995, rights to The Notebook were sold to Warner Books. It was published in October, 1996, and he followed that with Message in a Bottle (1998), A Walk to Remember (1999), The Rescue (2000), A Bend in the Road (2001), and Nights in Rodanthe (2002), The Guardian (2003), The Wedding (2003), Three Weeks with my Brother (2004), True Believer (2005) and At First Sight (2005) all with Warner Books. All were domestic and international best sellers and were translated into more than 35 languages. The movie version of Message in a Bottle was released in 1999, A Walk to Remember was released in 2002, and The Notebook was released in 2004. The average domestic box office gross per film was $56 million -- with another $100 million in DVD sales -- making the novels by Nicholas Sparks one of the most successful franchises in Hollywood.

The film rights to Nights in Rodanthe, True Believer and At First Sight have been sold, and Nicholas Sparks has written the screenplay for The Guardian, though he has not offered it for sale at this point.

He now has five children: Miles, Ryan, Landon, Lexie, and Savannah. He lives in North Carolina with his wife and children.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I've collected almost all of his books (novel). Except for "Dear John"..."The Lucky One" and "The Choice". Nick Sparks is one of my fav author beside Cecelia Athern. I loved most of his books and the way it was written.

I remember when I got my first book..."The Guardian"...I'd could barely bring myself to read the last few pages. And when I saw (watched) "Message in a Bottle"...I couldn't stopped crying b'coz it ends with a tragic/unexpected ending. I didn't dare read em while I'm in a train or in a bus because his books always make me cry.

Fav books:- "The Guardian".."The Rescue".."Message in a Bottle" and "Three Weeks With My Brother" (non-fiction)

Opens tomorrow : Night in Rodanthe starring Richard Gere and Diane Lane.

A cure is in reach for the world's most primal force of fury: THE INCREDIBLE HULK. We find scientist Bruce Banner, living in shadows, scouring the planet for an antidote. But the warmongers who dream of abusing his powers won't leave him alone, nor will his need to be with the only woman he has ever loved, Betty Ross. Upon returning to civilization, our brilliant doctor is ruthlessly pursued by The Abomination -- a nightmarish beast of pure adrenaline and aggression whose powers match The Hulk's own. A fight of comic-book proportions ensues as Banner must call upon the hero within to rescue New York City from total destruction. One scientist must make an agonizing final choice -- accept a peaceful life as Bruce Banner or the creature he could permanently become: THE INCREDIBLE HULK.

Cast: Edward Norton, Liv Tyler, Tim Roth, William Hurt, Tim Blake Nelson.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------

Honestly...I liked this one better than the first one with Eric Bana (I'd only liked Eric Bana in Troy). Maybe it is because I like Edward Norton more than Eric Bana or most probably he potrayed very closely to the TV series..Dr.Bruce Banner? (the late Bill Bixby)

Hmmmm...whatever it is....I found the story is great, really follows the comics and TV show.

Not even Drew Barrymore's million-dollar smile can save this humiliating comedy about a 25-year old journalist who does what the rest of us only dream about in nightmares: Relives the hell of high school. Josie (Barrymore) is an awkward copy editor at a big Chicago newspaper who, when not correcting her co-workers' grammar, fantasizes about two things: investigative journalism and getting kissed -- really kissed -- by someone who loves her. She's given a shot at the first -- which, inevitably, leads to fulfillment of the second -- when she's sent undercover at a local high school in order to find out what today's crazy kids are really up to (journalist-turned-filmmaker Cameron Crowe once did the very same thing; which led to his book and, later, the movie, FAST TIMES AT RIDGEMONT HIGH.) The problem: Josie didn't fit in the first time around -- flashbacks show us greasy-haired "Grossy Josie" getting the full-on Carrie White treatment -- and learns the hard way that teenagers don't change much. A true glutton for punishment, Josie falls for the popular jerk who won't give her the time of day (Jeremy Jordan), catches the eye of a handsome English teacher with a taste for under-aged girls (Michael Vartan), and, with a lot of help from her popular brother (David Arquette), finally manages to infiltrate the in-crowd. It's hard to believe the film really intends to endorse the shallow, in-crowd values that make Josie so miserable. But it's anyone's guess what this earnestly acted but poorly plotted film does mean to say. Watching the miserable Josie take her licks is so painful that it's a genuine relief when she's made over into a happy, bubble-headed prom queen, and she only learns self-respect after winning the approval of a bunch of cruel, vapid teens.

Starring: Drew Barrymore, David Arquette and Michael Vartan.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


I'd loved Drew Barrymore in this film. Being a 'nerd' is not something that everyone love or wanted to be. And again...it remind me of myself when I was in school back then. I was not a popular gal myself (in school), so this movie really meant something to me... ; ))

- Raven

Robby is stood up at the altar by Linda, who decides that the prospect of marrying a guy who sings at wedding receptions doesn't equal the attraction she felt when he was lead singer in a rock band. Robby finds consolation in his friendship with Julia, a waitress at the wedding receptions and bar mitzvahs where he performs. Julia asks Robby to help her plan her upcoming wedding to Glenn, who isn't interested in the details of the ceremony.Robby learns that Glenn also isn't totally interested in Julia and is marrying her because she "deserves it" after sticking with him for years and because he knows she's not marrying him for his money, since she dated him back before he started pulling down the big bucks.

With a brand new score that pays loving homage to the pop songs of the 1980’s, The Wedding Singer takes us back to a time when hair was big, greed was good, collars were up, and a wedding singer just might be the coolest guy in the room.

Starring: Adam Sandler and Drew Barrymore.


------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


This is one of my fav romantic comedy starring Adam Sandler and Drew Barrymore. I loved the music..the storyline and of coz...the year of the 80's. Remind me of my teenage year where 'big hair' and 'big earring' were popular....

August Rush is a 2007 Academy Award-nominated drama directed by Kirsten Sheridan.

About a boy named Evan Taylor (Freddie Highmore) lives in an orphanage, all the while believing that his parents are alive. He believes the music that he hears all around him is his parents communicating with him. Evan meets a counselor, Richard Jeffries (Terrence Howard), of the New York Child Services Department. Evan tells him he does not want to be adopted because he believes his parents are still alive.

Through a series of flashbacks, his parents are revealed to be a famous concert cellist named Lyla Novacek (Keri Russell), and Louis Connelly (Jonathan Rhys Meyers), an Irish guitarist and lead singer of a rock band, who spend one romantic night together and never see each other again. While Evan has believed his parents have wanted him all along, his mother only lately comes to find out that her son is alive and sets out to New York to find him. His father has never forgotten Lyla and doesn't know about Evan.

Now performing on the streets of New York and cared for by a mysterious stranger, August uses his remarkable musical talents to seek his biological parents.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I watched this movie two times. Freddie Highmore is a talented young artist. In this movie, he acted as an orphange who has a remarkable music talent. I'd really liked the music/soundtrack...

If you watch "Mr Holland Opus"...you gonna love this one too.

Nacho (Jack Black) is a man without skills. After growing up in a Mexican monastery, he is now a grown man and the monastery's cook, but doesn't seem to fit in. Nacho cares deeply for the orphans he feeds, but his food is terrible--mostly, if you ask him, a result of his terrible ingredients. He realizes he must hatch a plan to make money to buy better food for "the young orphans, who have nothing" (and if in doing so Nacho can impress the lovely Sister Encarnacion, that would be a big plus). When Nacho is struck by the idea to earn money as a Lucha Libre wrestler, he finds that he has a natural, raw talent for wrestling. As he teams with his rail-thin, unconventional partner, Esqueleto (the Skeleton), Nacho feels for the first time in his life that he has something to fight for and a place where he belongs. As Lucha is strictly forbidden by the church elders at the monastery, Nacho is forced to lead a double life. Disguised by a sky blue mask, Nacho conceals his true identity as he takes on Mexico's most famous wrestlers and takes on a hilarious quest to make life a little sweeter at the orphanage.

Starring: Jack Black (Nacho) Hector Jeminez (Esqueleto) and Ana De La Reguera (Sister Encarnacion)

I can't stop laughing when first time I watched this movie. And I'd still laugh my heart out (until tears) when I watched it yesterday (now playing on Cable TV). This is one of the funniest movie from Jack Black...

POWER GILERRRRRR!!!

Watched it last Saturday with my girl friends (the girl wonder)..hehehe. Loved the action..the storyline..the suit..the hero..hehehe. The entire movie were really..really great.

Robert Downey Jr is no longer a sissy guy like in "The Weird Science" (wore bra on top of his head) hahaha. He then returned and kill his 'boyish' look in "U.S. Marshals" with Wesley Snipes and Tommy Lee Jones.

And now he return with Iron shield on him and still look handsome as before.

If you haven't seen it yet...go now. And pls..pls..wait until the credits b'coz you will be able to meet "Nick Fury" (Samuel L. Jackson).

Aku suka lakonan Tan Sri sewaktu beliau berlakon di Jalan Ampas hingga ke awal 60'an (filem beliau). Tan Sri adalah seorang pelakon, penyanyi, pelawak, pencipta lagu dan banyak lagi kebolehan beliau yg sukar di tandingi. Filem beliau yg aku fav sekali adalah "Bujang Lapok", "Seniman Bujang Lapok", "Pendekar Bujang Lapok", "Labu Labi", "Tiga Abdul", "Ibu Mertuaku" dan "Madu Tiga.".

Nordin Ahmad adalah pelakon filem Melayu terulung. Lakonan hebat beliau adalah seperti dalam filem "Seri Mersing", "Semerah Padi", "Air Mata Duyong" dan "Gurindam Jiwa." Selain itu beliau juga dikenang dengan lakonan agresif seperti dalam filem "Hang Jebat", "Cucu Datuk Merah" dan "Raden Mas."

Penglibatan beliau bermula apabila beliau berkerja sebagai kerani di Singapura pada 1951 dan tidak menyimpan hasrat berlakon sehingga melihat iklan mencari pelakon-pelakon baru di Utusan Melayu. Atas dorongan rakan-rakan beliau menerima jemputan uji bakat bersama Malay Film Productions MFP tetapi gagal. Pengarah S. Ramanathan yang mengujinya berpendapat Nordin tidak mampu berlakon.

Namun rakan Nordin, P.Ramlee lah yang melancarkan kerjaya Nordin bila menawarkannya berlakon watak Teruna bertentang Aduka yang dilakonkan oleh P.Ramlee dalam filem "Semerah Padi" pada tahun 1956. Kejayaannya sebagai Teruna melonjakkan namanya sebagai seorang bintang filem. Nordin diambil dari studio MFP oleh Studio Cathay Kris dengan tawaran lumayan dan menjadi kesayangan Cathay.

Pengarah-pengarah berlumba-lumba untuk mengambilnya membintangi filem mereka. Disamping jalan cerita yang menarik dan pengarahan yang bagus, Nordin Ahmadlah elemen penting dalam kejayaan filem-filem Cathay Keris seperti filem "Hang Jebat" arahan Husain Haniff, "Cucu Datuk Merah" oleh M. Amin dan "Seri Mersing" oleh Salleh Ghani.

Namun yang pasti, setiap kali menyebut nama Nordin Ahmad, peminat akan terus teringat adegan-adegan dan dialog-dialog yang menjadi klasik filem-filem Melayu sepanjang zaman seperti dalam filem Seri Mersing arahan Allahyarham Salleh Ghani dengan dialog berpantun ; "Kajang Pak Malau kajang berlipat, kajang saya mengkuang layu, dagang Pak Malau dagang bertempat, dagang saya musafir lalu." Dalam filem Gurindam Jiwa (1966) Nordin berganding dengan Latifah Omar mendendangkan lagu Gurindam Jiwa dengan rangkap "Tuai padi antara masak, esok jangan layu layuan, intai kami antara nampak, esok jangan rindu-rinduan".

Nordin Ahmad juga pernah menimba pengalaman sebagai pelakon di Malay Film Productions (MFP) dan Cathay Keris serta digilap bakatnya oleh P. Ramlee, B N Rao dan M. Amin. Daripada seorang pelakon, lama kelamaan Nordin diberi kepercayaan menjadi pengarah dan terbukti melalui filem seperti "Wan Perkasa" serta "Playboy".

Beliau menghembuskan nafas terakhir di Hospital Besar, Singapura pada 15 Jun 1971 ketika berusia 39 tahun kerana menghidap demam kuning. Beliau meninggalkan balu, Salmah Ibrahim (Salmah Hitam) serta tiga cahaya mata - Asmah, Tuah dan Asnor.

Nama Penuh: Ahmad Syech Albar lebih dikenal sebagai Achmad Albar.
Lahir di Surabaya, 16 Juli 1946...adalah seorang penyanyi dan pemusik Indonesia yang merupakan vokalis dari grup musik God Bless. Ahmad lahir dari pasangan Syech Albar dan Farida Al-Hasni. Ibunya bercerai dan kemudian menikah dengan seorang artis, Jamaluddin Malik. Dari pernikahan mereka ini melahirkan seorang artis wanita, Camelia Malik. Ahmad Albar biasa juga di panggil dengan julukan Iye. Ahmad Albar pernah menikah dengan artis Rini S. Bono dan mempunyai tiga putra: Fauzi Albar, seorang aktor yang bernama Fachri Albar (pelakon Malin Kundang), dan Fadli Albar.

Awal 1973, Iye bersama Fuad Hassan (drum), Donny Fattah (bass), Jockie Soerjoprajogo (keyboard), dan Ludwig Lemans (gitar) mengadakan latihan di Puncak selama dua minggu, untuk menghadapi pergelaran musik di Taman Ismail Marzuki tanggal 5 Mei 1973. Dalam latihan mereka sepakat membentuk sebuah grup dengan nama God Bless.

Kesuksesannya saat merilis album perdana bertajuk God Bless pada tahun 1975 membuat grup rock itu menjadi grup pembuka konser grup rock dunia "'Deep Purple'" di Jakarta. Figur Ahmad Albar meroket menjadi superstar rock Indonesia dan Majalah Tempo edisi 27 September 1975 menjadikan dia sebagai laporan utama dengan memajang foto Albar di sampul depan.

Ahmad Albar yang berambut kribo kemudian membentuk grup Duo Kribo bersama Ucok Harahap vokalis AKA Band yang juga berambut kribo. Duet ini menelurkan tiga album yakni "Neraka Jahanam" (1977), "Pelacur Tua" (1978), dan "Panggung Sandiwara" (1978).

Ahmad Albar sempat mengecewakan sebagian penggemarnya ketika pada 1979 merilis album dangdut berjudul Zakia atas prakarsa wartawan majalah musik Junior, Masheri Mansyur. Maklum ketika itu dangdut masih kerap dianggap sebagai musik kampungan oleh sebagian masyarakat. Album ini berisi sembilan lagu. Enam karya Albar adalah "Zakia", "Karena Harta", "Mawar Merah", "Raja Kumbang", "Tuhan Ada", dan "Beku". Tiga lainnya adalah "Pernyataan" (M Harris), "Obral" (Titiek Puspa), dan "Raja Sehari"(Ian). Ternyata lagu "Zakia" yang diciptakannya "meledak" di pasaran. Gitaris Ian Antono-lah yang meracik musiknya sehingga enak didengar.



Lagu fav aku: "Karena Harta".."Tuhan Ada" dan "Raja Kumbang". Achmad Albar masih kelihatan fit, hansem dan 'rock' walaupun tlh berusia 61thn...hehehe.

I'd always see him as Han Solo. Then followed by Dr. Jones in his famous trilogy movies "Indiana Jones." "You cheat Dr. Jones" is my girl fav quote/tagline (used this whenever I'm trying to recall her who Harrison Ford is). I liked ALL his films and loved him in "What Lies Beneath" b'cos he potrayed as a good husband, but he is not!! (a good twist) ; ))
I'm looking forward for his upcoming action/adventure movie "Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull".

Harrison Ford is one of the greatest actor in Hollywood.
