Movie Review : XXX Return Of Xander Cage

Thursday 26 January 2017



Director : DJ Caruso
Stars : Vin Diesel, Donnie Yen, Deepika Padukone, Nina Dobrev, Ruby Rose, Tony Jaa, Kris Wu & others. 
Rating : 3/10

Masa DP posted gambar dia dengan Vin dekat insta I was like k she got a place at Hollywood. With all hype of her being one of Hollywood stars with great badass Vin, everyone got damn excited. But considering her work at Btown is such a mess, I know her part just a candy eye or flower pot roles. 

When I found out that Nina also in this movie, I've made up my mind that I'll go watch it because I miss Nina so much since she have decided to quit TVD :(

& today is the day I've finally meet Nina again. She's cute as always. I miss her giggles so much. Omg I'm such a fangirl. Awww 

Okay, lets back with the review. 

First of all, who wants Xander Cage to return? I bet the answer is NOBODY.

Dia dah elok santai chillax lepak kat kampung main skateboard, have sizzling romance with hot girls there, why ruin it?

Dah 2017, USA gov still tak dapat army yang power nokharom. I mean, look at them, a bunch of clowns. Tskk pathetic. Sudahnya team XXX lawan dengan team XXX. K team diorang paling kuat. I got the point. 

Secondly, I love Deepika. When she shut her mouth. What's with her accent? Her voice, her accent sounds yuck! Like always, no soul at all. For being pretty onscreen, she's perfect. For acting, hmm baik ambik Katrina Kaif lah. Nargis Fakhri berlakon dalam SPY lagi bagus dari dia. What a shame.

Tengok gaya dia pun dah tahu tak mampu pergi jauh T.T

Storyline nokharom cliche. Kau dah boleh dah semua scene yang acah-avah suspen tu. Boo.

And no action stunts impress me at all. No exclusive scenes pun. Yang underwater scene tu, Deepika bagitahu Caruso ke suruh tiru Dhoom 3? 


Baik Deepika bagitau DJ Caruso jumpa Abbas-Mustan or Aditya Chopra open table buat action movie. 

Tambah disappoited lagi bila MMA fighter macam Donnie Yen & Tony Jaa buat stunt meleweh dalam movie ni. Really guys? MMA fighter kot buat stunt cincai. Tony Jaa famous dengan Ong-Bak kot. Donnie dengan Ip-Man series tapi tskk pathetic. Lawan dengan army pulak tu. 

Sedih bila Donnie Yen dapat ayat 'Your mom didnt teach you  manners? You forgot to zip your pants' Really Caruso? Really? 

Tbh, nak tengok movie ni pergi download je lah. Layan dekat cinema memang buang masa even the line-up stars impressive but tskk pathetic. But hey, I develop my crush on Ruby Rose! Her smile makes my heart goes awwwwww


Tips Layan Drama Korea

First of all, uolls pergi la tengok drama Goblin! Best wei! I enjoy this drama bukan part cinta dia tapi part Goblin dengan Grim Reaper tu haishhh geram je tengok. Penat gelak layan scene diorang. Gigih okay tunggu every week padahal tak pernah pun gigih macam ni. Sabtu je dah get ready nak layan.


Since Iolls memang layan drama Korea tiap tahun & quota setiap tahun ada 2, so sekarang tengah habiskan quota. Malas nak letak quota bebanyak sebab mostly lebih kurang je storyline. Goblin tahun lepas punya :')

Sekarang tengah layan The K2, sama jugak, quota tahun lepas ;P

Dulu masa sekolah rajin la nak layan drama berepisod ni. Drama Liontin tu cecah beratus pun sanggup tengok tapi sekarang tak mampu lah. Drama hidup kita pun banyak tak hadam. Actually bila layan drama Korea mesti tertidur depan laptop. Meleweh sangat. 

Masa tu geram jugak sebab bila dah tengok separuh mesti la nak layan sampai ending tapi malas nak layan part meleweh draggy dia semua. Boleh je nak skip2 scene tapi jadi tak syok la.

So haritu adik bagitahu rahsia dia mampu layan drama dalam masa tak sampai 3 hari without skipping any scene.

Rahsianya, pergi dekat setting tekan playback faster. Ni kalau VLC player la. Speed dia automatic akan jadi 2. Kalau dekat youtube, dekat setting tu haaaa. Pilih la nak 2 ke, 1.5, 1 ikut yang korang nak. Sekarang ni layan movie pun tekan faster. Jimat masa wei. Dari sejam jadi 20 minit je.

Semalam dengar OST Goblin pelik kenapa sendu teruk lagu tu pastu baru teringat masa layan drama ni speed dia laju so lagu pun jadi rancak sikit. Kekeke

Nom Nom Nom : Foodsburry Cafe

Wednesday 25 January 2017

Wow oh wow, this is my first nom nom nom segmen for this blog! So, last Sunday me and my sister went to Foodsbury Cafe at Seksyen 9, Shah Alam because my old classmate wants to meet there.

I without any expectation at all went there lenggang kangkung datang dengan gossip mak jemah since it has been 5 years we haven't met. Dia kata Foodsbury Cafe and I was like, okay Foodsbury it is.

Pergi sana memang kena pakai GPS. Kalau sesat menangis la kau pusing2 dekat roundabout sana.

'Wei, nak tempat yang parking tak berbayar'
'Okay. Foodbury Cafe'

Ha'ah memang tak payah bayar tapi nak pergi sana hmmm *isi tempat kosong*

So I arrived there and it was so crowded so I expect this cafe would be good at least. The decoration is pretty. The couch is comfy but the pillows hmmm basuh ke tak? Kusam teruk.



Idk whether tingkat atas open ke tak since nobody went up there. Masa kawan tunggu pun dia tak kabo atas tu available. Bad service tskkk. Nak lepak lama pun tak syok sini since ramai yang datang. 

Harga for one meal quite okay la kot. But I guess The Grills/Pelpero better la kalau nak makan western yang sedap and affordable. Why? Jap, I nak rant.

Nak tunggu waiter datang ambil order pun lama for about half an hour. Its not like we didnt call anyone or what. We did but they just don;t come. Its peak hour, its okay la. since bergossip can reduce the hunger kan, so I let it slip away.

By looking at the menu, yes it was fancy and such because the menu is vary but I tell you what, you will get this line

'Sorry dik, menu ni tak ada.'

Too bad. 


So kitorang order Tray 1 : Lamb Chop, Cajun Tomyam, Aglio Olio, Spaghetti Carbonara, French Fries, and Fried Dori. Tapi tak pasti lah fried ke tempura. And and and an ice-cream. :)

My friend ordered Spicy French Fries sebab lapar sangat so boleh la makan sementara menunggu main dish. Tapi nak tunggu yang tu punnnn hak alahhhh sampai setengah jam. T.T

Beverages, Honey Lemon, Lemon & Lime & Caramel Ice Blended. Buttttt Caramel Ice Blended tu tak sampai langsung. Peak hour. K.

Andddd the tray arrived. I expect tray dia besar k since dalam menu for 3-4 pax. What do u expect? Haruslah besar kan? Rupanya hek elehhhh macam pinggan dekat rumah cuma besar sikit je. Tell u what, not worth it. You're fooling yourself with the cheap price on the menu. Me and my sister makan 3 suap je k. 1 suap untuk 1 jenis pasta. Ada brader tu makan dia sorang je for 1 tray. T.T


Kalau bukak IG dia hek elehhh penuh satu tray okayyy. IRL, nak hulur duit masa bayar pun berat hati. Tak mengenyangkan langsung. The lamb chop paling disappointed sekali. Dapat bahagian tulang. U expect me to eat what? Air rebusan tulang kambing?

The dory omg hanyir nokharom. Part oily tak payah cakap la. U better eat at Manhattan Fish Market. Serious talk.

But we all love the pasta. Semua sedap. Tak tahu la memang sedap or sebab lapar sangat bcs we've wait for 50 minutes for the main dish. Makan tak sampai setengah jam. Tapi kesian la kau kalau makan yang hujung2 sebab berjelaga. Tak la banyak tapi cukup untuk menghancurkan nikmat.

Remember I said bad service earlier? Now I tell you why. We've already been through a longggggg awaited for the main dish kan so I told them Caramel IB tak sampai and they just did what? NOTHING!

Eh, u said sorry pun dah sejuk hati la. Ni buat muka ketat je as if nothing happens at all. Lepasni no more Foodsbury Cafe. Idk why people love to go there. Kalau sebab decoration, I tell u its superb but can the decoration satisfy your tummy? If can, then go. If no, find a better place to eat.

The bills of the day...

 

Anyway, I'm quite happy la that day sebab dapat jumpa balik member lama and pot pet sana sini sampai balik pun tak reti menapak ke kereta pun nak gosip zahabedah lagi. Lepasni dah susah nak jumpa dah so bila jumpa kena la berkualiti ;)

 

Cabaran 25 Hari Blogging #1 : Siapa Saya

Sunday 22 January 2017

Blogwalking hari ni terjumpa Cabaran 25 Hari Blogging dari blog Nuraini Hanis. Terus kucar-kacir nak join sebab dah lama tak update blog ni ;)





So for the first day topic is 'Siapa Saya'

Siapa saya? Saya Farhana Jafri of course u guys know my name but danggg not my story.

Since I haven't properly introduced myself as a part of this blogging site, here I make a quick update of myself. :)

I've started blogging since 2009 and this is my third blog and I really hope this is the last one. Penat lah nak cari networking balik after buat baru. My blog is all about my personal stuff, I mean not my personal life but my view or my thoughts on something. Kalau dulu sembang pasal banyak benda merapu, this time around lebih kepada jadikan blogging sebagai side income & cari networking.

I'm 91's generation so yessss I am older now and currently working at construction company although I'm a BBA (Hons) in Finance and diploma graduate in Islamic Banking. Nope, my work not related at all with business thingy. All about construct and material. Lewlz. I wonder what am I gonna be in next 5 years.

My life is quite a journey so far. Maybe I will be a fashion designer or a lecturer since these two are my dreams but lets see where my life gonna take me.

And oh my blog will have lots of movie review or posts related with Hindustan stuff since I'm a Bollywood lovers. But don't worry ni semua bergantung pada tahap kerajinan dan kelapangan masa. Hewhewhew

Anyway, I really hope my blog will expanding better than before. Have a nice day ahead people :)

Challenge accpeted!

About Me

Sunday 1 January 2017

Hey there!

A blogger by passion, a reviewer as freelance. To be frank with you I don't even know if reviewer actually and legally exist. I can't self-appointed as movie critic am I? The level is too high to achieve but hey nothing impossible for a dream!

Often the difference between what is miserable and that which is spectacular lies is the leap of our faith - Sushant Singh Rajput

Farhana Jafri, nama pena dan nama sebenar selama 30 tahun. 
I start blogging sejak 2010 dan menggunakan niche Entertainment sebagai niche utama sebab suka layan movie tapi tak tahu nak rant dekat mana. Dari bermotifkan nak meroyan, jadi blogger part-time lepastu belajar pasal SEO untuk kikis duit dari platform ni. 

Alang-alang nak kikis, I improve skill menulis dan ambil kursus yang berkaitan dengan filem. I belajar pasal review, dunia perfileman, penulisan, muzik, film distribution, fashion dan beberapa kursus yang berkaitan dengan industri perfileman. Untuk setakat ni I dah pernah bekerjasama dengan iflix, Astro Originals, KRU Music, Awesome TV, Imaginal Pictures dan Ace Talents. 

Kebanyakan movie dalam blog ni lebih terarah kepada movie atau web-series Bollywood sebab minat dengan Hindustan dari kecil lagi. Salah satu objektif rajin update dekat blog ni juga sebab nak ramai orang keluar dari kepompong #TheKhans dan layan movie Bollywood yang lebih bagus skrip dan kualitinya. Selain Bollywood, ada juga movie dari Korea Selatan, Indonesia, Thailand, Hollywood dan lain-lain.

Stop And Stare

Friday 1 November 2013

Assalamualaikum people. :)

Ever stop at a crowded place and watch how people busy doing their things? Just sit for a minute will do. You can see kindness, love, smiles, rudeness, anger, frown, sadness and lots of people's behavior and act. Observing their interaction with other people, their body language and facial expressions. Guessing their perfume's brand or adore their fashion. It's fascinating.


I don't quite remember when this start. I was exhausted and sitting on a bench alone while waiting for my friends done with their shopping. I look around me. It's so crowded. I saw a happy family and in my mind, I wish that was my family. Not because I'm not happy with my family but I wish my family was there at that time with me doing family stuff. So, I sat there a little longer and watch others. Happy kids playing. Lovers argue over childish things.

Watching some happy moments makes me smile. Embarassing moments will makes me laugh. But lots of time when I'm observing, I have watched people with bad attitude. All I can do was feel sympathy for them because own so many negative vibes.

People watching can helps an author to get a story for her books, a film director to create a scene or new characters for his story or an artist get an inspiration to start draw on his canvas or maybe for a singer to make a song or for an ordinary people like us learn about life. An actual life.


Here's some tips to do this activity. You simply can't do this when you're not in crowded place. It will turn out to be nature watching. When doing this, stay unobtrusive. People maybe misthought you as some stalker or scary pedophile because nowadays so many bad things happen. So, try prevent that with eating or reading or maybe you can wear sunglasses but please don't wear it when you're in mall or indoors. Looks stupid and you're not even a famous celebrities. Just keep it low. This activity can be fun if you have a partner. Laugh together and share toughts can be awesome and deeply connecting friendship ritual is it?


That's all I guess. Till then, happy watching guys. :)

Felt In Love

Thursday 31 October 2013

Assalamualaikum dearest people!

I love handmade stuff. I love to create something with my own hand using my own creativity. That's what I want to share with you guys about my hobby. I start this when I was kid, I build a stronghold with cushions. I create my own robot with clippers and so on. You guys for sure do the same things when you guys we're kids because kids love to create and explore the world. When in secondary, I start making card instead of buying em whenever I want to give it to someone. I love it so much because I am able to produce my own and I want them to realize I put a lot of effort on that. Even it was just a card but it gives deep meaning isn't it? I'll use anything to decorate my cards.

Google own this
I still do this things until now. I love it so much. Another thing I love to do is handmade brooch. It's become a trend  nowadays when girls falls in love with cute stuff like this. It quite easy though and it's super cute. Even if you're not an expert when it comes to sewing, you still can create one.You can decorate it the way you want with buttons or beads.

I made these! :)

Before I start doing this brooch, I search for lots of  tutorial video because I can't follow the steps shown in pictures. I go to youtube and search all kind of handmade brooch. Starting from the easiest one till the hardest from any material types they use. Some of them use felt material while some of them use lace or ribbons  and others use remnant fabric. Using remnant fabric is the best because the source easily found and doesn't cost much money. Ribbon is the hardest because it's smooth and hard to shape. I fail to make a rose from ribbon. After I've tried for how many times, I've done it but it's ugly. Serious talk. 

Google own it. :)

I also have made a patchwork blanket. It's super hard and took me a week to finish it but the result made me smile from ear to ear. But to compared it with my aunt's work, mine was a disaster. But I'm glad my family use it because it's comfort and warm. I myself love to sleep with it rather than normal blanket because my previous home was located at Felda. The temperature at night was super cold and we had to use thick blanket to prevent us from shivering. We don't even use fan at night. I remember when we use two thick blanket because that night it was raining heavily. 

Google :)

Here some tutorial video for handmade brooch. Hope you guys enjoy doing this and maybe who knows you guys can even makes money from this. I did once and it was worth it! :)

Others, you can search at youtube. Just type anything you want which related to this handmade brooches. Goodluck in creating a cute one! Till then, have a nice day :)




Photoghraphy

Sunday 27 October 2013

Assalamualaikum people. :)

I'm not one the owner of a DSLR. Walking around with it hanging on your neck. No, definitely not me because I don't have one. I just love photoghraphy so much. Pictures can give 1000 meanings to us. What my hobby is, collecting pictures. I have tons of it in my folder. I collect it from many sources. Facebook, Google, Flickr, We Heart It but most of them comes from Tumblr.


Just type any label you want and many pictures related will appear. I usually will search for weddings, travel, animals, places, quotes and DIY. I start this hobby at 2010 when I love anime so much and start searching for the fictional character's pictures as collection. As time goes by, I change my collection to these types of pictures and develop it more when I owned Tumblr account. But, Tumblr is quite heavy to load and requires strong network connection thus makes me rarely open it. But when I open this site I can't stop and I don't even realise how much time I spent for it.


I share my hobby with my younger sister when actually we develop this hobby together. She have her own collection and I have mine. Sometimes, we will exchange our collection. It such a great feeling when you see an amazing pictures. Without words, it shows a story. Whatever people find the story was, it's depends on their side of view.

That's all about my favourite hobby. Stay smile and create your own memory. Till we meet again, readers :)



Wanderlust

Assalamualaikum people.


Nature and places. Their beauty silence me and worship our creator more and more. It's been one of my dreams to travel around the world. Get a passport, grab a bagpack and lovely clothes and go wherever I want to. London, India, China, Australia, New Zealand, Rome, Italy, Brazil and I can keep listing all places for entire day cause I'm eager to go out there and watch the culture, foods, view, religion and so on. Everything!

Since little, my dad love to brought us everywhere just to create great memories and visited places. He loves nature as much as I did. I think I took some of his genes and spread it to me. Haha. I envy my dad because he had been like everywhere in this country. He got a happy face with a nice scenery and places and yes, with some nice people. Every pictures he had have their own meaning. 


I have that kind of pictures too but not as much as my dad because I didn't really have that chance. I once thought, I want to be like western people which travel other country, visit all places, have part-time jobs to make some money and travel another country and keep repeating till they're done. It seems nice to have a life like that. I had a dream to travel in my caravan with camera in my hand and yes, a journal to keep those memories alive. 

I love the idea when young people fill up their times with go travel and go for adventure rather than waste their money at shopping mall buying CD's collection of Korean singer or spend their money duplicating their idol from top to toe or busy pleasing their partner with this or that stuff. Why don't they go for a trip and get new experiences? Learn some and dig more.

'Please be a traveler not a tourist. Try new things, meet new people and look beyond whats right in front of you. Those are the keys to understanding this amazing world we live in.' - Andrew Zimmern
I will travel the world. I will. Night people and dream about great places. :)
