Real Steel Real Life

Arrived @ home 10 minutes ago from watching the movie Real Steel with my old time buddy, Arul. although i should write about my day @ the 60 RAJD recruit camp first, i want to record this before it got cold. Actually I'm not very interested in watching this movie due to a discouraging review from a reporter in one of our English newspaper but after watching it, i guess that the reporter must have different kind of interest in terms of movie genre.. A Charlie Chaplin, i think. here's my amateur review.
I've been studying something called NLP, it tell you how your mind works and how to manipulate it to get good results in whatever you do in life, and it modeled what we call successful behavior and how to put it in others. To date there's plenty of ways on how to put this thing to work. Basely it is used in the field of therapy, creatively it is manipulated in some crucial areas like politics and movies. It is not an easy subject to be mastered, furthermore manipulated. So for those that have manage to play around with this thing, i believed that they have invested a lot of time and effort, hence deserved to be respected. watching it for two hours convince me that it consist of plenty of creative hours just to plan the storyboard especially if my intuition doesn't lie to me that they used plenty of psychological technique such as NLP, subliminal message as the context of the story. the movie is very straight forward, easy watching and it deserve the every cent i paid for it. throughout the 2 hours it will play with your emotion, your state.. and it ended with you feeling very positive, motivated and energetic. It gives you the feeling that make you sometimes go back and re-watched it just to experience the pleasant feeling, once more. its like having 2 hours of motivation camp - that cost you RM 11.. and you cant refuse the motivation, like you refuse your facilitator and module! do our local film maker do these kind of study and produce the same result? i don't think so.
Its the money and market size factor, i heard you say. Again, I don't think so. This movie features robot as its main theme. They had done well.. in fact, too well. the graphic is so perfect that you would forget that it's just a graphic! and since you forget, it doesn't matter anymore. They had make it so well that you forget the fact that we don't live with robot... yet.. its so natural that we feel like we've already having them for years. so the robot is no big deal, you can exchange them with goldfish and still have the same good feeling. So money and market size is not the factor. What then?
Hot babes and pole dance? Nope. I cant recall any sexual scene except for couples of quick kiss and a hug. The heroin doesn't show much of her ....- i do not sure its fantastic or not, she doesn't emphasize it much-body. They proved that they can make great movies even when sex is not involved. I wonder why does the Malay movie maker struggling to prove otherwise.
in a nutshell ( I've learn this word from a MUET teaching teacher blog's.. hehehe..), there's a nut..
