Later When Peter Bretter decided to go to Hawaii to release his stress, he met Sarah and her new boyfriend Aldous Snow. They both tried hard to make each other jealous just trying to get the winner.

Review:

This film is entertaining, I like Jason Segel as Peter Bretter, he is really hilarious. I liked when he cried over Sarah. Later Peter meet hotel concierge Rachel.  At first, Peter just use Rachel to move on from Sarah, but later they become engage in serious romantic relationship. Later Sarah Marshall had ugly fight with Aldous Snow that caused them to break up and when Sarah tried to get back to Peter, Peter denied her, saying they are over and she caused big damage to him.

Overall, this film is sweet and entertaining. You should watch it if you liked romantic comedy film like I am.

Film review: Best Man Down (2012)

Synopsis:

When their best man, Lumpy suddenly dies. The newlywed couple cancel their honeymoon and prepare for his funeral. They tried to gather Lumpy' special persons left to be gathered together on his funeral. Along the way, they found out the unexpected things that draw them all closely.

Review:

This film is about Lumpy and how he lived his life until his suddenly death that caused sorrow for his loved ones. Lumpy is a good best friend, he gave Mexico holiday as honeymoon gift for his best friend, Scott. Scott determined to give the best moments for his best friend at his funeral. He tried to gather Lumpy' loved ones.

Later, Scott drive to Northern Minnesota to meet Ramsey Anderson, which later we know that she is Lumpy best friend and lover. Ramsey lied that she is pregnant with Lumpy' child to confirm the couple that she wants to join Lumpy' funeral.

Along the way, they found unexpected things like Scott resigned his job because he can not stand Rick and other things at his job. His bride Kristen also addicted to xanax in order to ease her anxiety. Ramsey life is not any better than two of them, she had her mom' boyfriend that cooked crystal meth to make money. The story is complicated yet fun.

I know this film is box office failure. Yet I think this film is still funny and interesting. It makes me laugh and sad at the same time. I recommend this film if you like daily comedy drama.

Rating: 7/10

K-drama review: Another Miss Oh

Sometimes, what we do not expect will have outcome beyond expectation. This is what happen when I watched this K-drama titled Another Miss Oh.

Here is the fact: I bought a lot of K-drama, watched and finish very few of them. If I found the Kdrama is not interesting, i will stop either at beginning episode or middle. Just can not stand myself to finish it. Yet if i really like the K-drama, i will watch over and over again and hard to get over with.
The last sentence I said had done me right with this K-drama Another Miss Oh.

I have famous K-drama dvd by web browsing, like Descendent of the sun (dots), pinocchio, love rain, marriage contract, etc. Actually I even did not finish watching Descendant of the sun (dots), forcing myself watch until middle episode and I feel really bored and I can not force myself to finish the drama. Frankly said, I even did not shed a single tear when watching Dots, same as well as pinocchio, and the others. So the scene is I bought a lot of K-drama in one day and did not finish all. The reason because it really did not touch my emotion and thought.

Since then, I learnt to just buy one K-drama. So if I did not finish it, I feel not really so wasted. So, I asked the shop retailer which drama is good, she told me that the last drama she watched is Another Miss Oh. So I bought it according to her said.

I just started watch this drama few days ago and still could not get over with this K-drama, because it is so good. I was crying, laughing and smiling while watching it. This drama really played my emotion well. Its really touching. Its beyond my expectation. I just expect to watch this drama to accompany my lunch time, meaning just as I have something to watch while eating. Yet, I was crying in episode 2, when Oh Hae Young told Park Do Kyung that she is been dumped by her ex fiancee.

Sometimes, I watched Kdrama, because I like the actor, like I watched some of Bae Soo Bin dramas, because I like the actor not the drama. But this is different. I don't even know the actors/actress in this Oh Hae Young drama. I have to say that they are really good actors/actress. They suit well.

The story is pretty simple. There are two woman named Oh Hae Young. The pretty Oh Hae Young dump Park Do Kyung on the day their wedding and the other Oh Hae Young getting dumped  by Han Tae Jin. Park Do Kyung ruin Han Tae Jin because he misunderstood by thinking his pretty Oh Hae Young to be married to Han Tae Jin. This is romantic comedy stories that will not get you bored.
The soundtrack is really good too. Its just really match the drama.

I still really not fully get over this drama after finish watching it 2 days ago. Even the soundtrack still whirling in my mind. It's just really recommended, this is really good K-drama you should watch.


My rate: 4.8/5
