Just Watched: Piece of Cake

Piece of Cake? More like a piece of mess! But no, I did not regret watching it. It is a filler in the background while I finish up my work assignments this evening. I don’t pay much attention but I could see the flaws, the weak writing, and messy plots. I would credit the acting though especially between Ayano Go and Tabe Mikako in their last scene together. But really… I rolled my eyes watching them bickering for a good 5 minutes and then starting to kiss. What was the argument for?

Just Watched: Romance Doll

178902_02

When I saw Romance Doll popped up on my Netflix dashboard, I knew I cannot miss it for the world. As much as I love Issei, I love Yu Aoi more! I have been waiting for this movie ever since the announcement was made in early this year. I admit I did not really know what the movie was until I saw the title. Romance Doll? Like sex doll? *side eyes* Provocative! I knew Bel would love to watch this drama so I watched it for her and me *grin*. For only 2 hours long, I knew it would be a piece of cake to watch.

Just Watched: Hot Gimmick

Hot Gimmick popped on my Netflix. I had no idea what it was about and hit play. I regretted it. This movie is poorly written. I don’t know where to begin… I sense missing plots as soon as I started. I was left confused. I don’t know where the writer wanted to take the viewers to. For the first time in many years, I used a lot of FF button. The acting wasn’t bad but wasn’t good, either. I was led into a rabbit hole by Hot Gimmick. At one point, I found the revenge pretty disgusting.

Just Watched: The Naked Director

This drama has been in my Netflix To Watch list for quite sometime. The word naked got me worried. How naked? Well, it was so naked! Nothing soft about this show! All hardcore naked and sex! Was I worried? Yes and no! Yes, because I did not want to be caught by my child watching an erotic show! But I was not worried much because this drama has content! In fact, the content is so relevant and strategic! I am very surprised and felt educated by the porn industry. It is not an easy industry to be in. The Naked Director did it! I am impressed by this show.

Just Watched: Hibiki

A long plane ride from Kunming to Beijing was enough for me to catch a movie. I decided on Hibiki because of the synopsis. I hesitated a bit though because it is a high school movie. However, there was no hint of romance which encouraged me to continue watching. And watch I did. I was glued to my screen and released a tiny bit of scream – not because I was cringing but I felt very disturbing with the main character. Hibiki. She is savage! SAVAGE, y’all!

Just Watched: Criminal for the Prosecution

Well, another movie I saw on the plane. This time, it is called Criminal for the Prosecution. I was not planning on watching it but there were not many interesting movies onboard. I saw Kimura Takuya and Ninomiya Kazumari aka Nino on the movie poster so I thought it would not be bad. I was wrong. While the premise and the story were interesting, the loopholes were too many. I felt lost because there were many untold and unexplained plots – hoping that you would fill in the gap yourself. It is impossible for me to do so since I did not read the novel. I was a bit disappointed but the execution part by Kimura and Nino were awesome. They really put a lot of their skills into this movie.
