Indulged in one of Singaporeans' favourite pasttimes on Saturday night and last night--caught The Incredibles and the French movie 5x2.
The former was a hoot! Brilliant and creative animation which made for a very fun watch. I love all of Pixar's productions and this one was no exception. Love this Superhero family! Now if only I could have such powers! The characters are utterly adorable!
The latter on the other hand was somewhat boring. It's basically a romance drama told backwards. It starts off with the couple in the lawyer's office finalising their divorce and then it goes chronologically backwards from there. The last part of the movie shows us how they meet. We see five different stages in their relationship hence the title I think. I didn't think very much of it 'cos there wasn't much suspense or intrigue. However I must say that the lead actress put in a very good performance. One could really feel her hurt, pain and happiness as the film progressed. Overall though, it's an OK movie but one which I thought I could have given a miss.
