Coming Soon!

Greetings fellow movie-philes! As you can see from your calender, we are nearing the end of the year again! Holy cow, time flies and an eventful year is about to end real soon. Hold on, before we end 2006 with a bang, let us see what are the movies coming to a screen near you this month.

1. After This Our Exile (7 Dec)
This big winner in the Golden Horse Awards this year stars Best Actor, Aaron Kwok, and the youngest Best Supporting Actor, Goum Ian Iskandar. Not only that, this movie also won the Best Picture award. Expect some serious and stellar performances by the star-studded cast. And remember to carry a pack of tissue paper.

2. Eragon (13 Dec)
Are you having The LOTR hangover? Need some fantasy to boost your mundane life? Fret not. Eragon, the dragon rider is here. This film is based on a novel by Christopher Paolini and aims to carry on the fantasy genre. Will Eragon emulate LOTR? The jury is still out.

3. Confessions of Pain (14 Dec)
Girls, stop gushing! Book your tickets for this film now! This movie stars two of Asia's hottest guys: the brooding Tony Leung and the picture perfect Takeshi Kaneshiro. Personally, I am anticipating this show for a long time because it is from the makers of Infernal Affairs (Andrew Lau and Alan Mak). As a fan of Infernal Affairs, I expect some quality work being churned out here!

4. A Night At The Museum (21 Dec)
Ben Stiller is back! Brace yourself for more laughs and gags from Hollywood's funniest man ( Some of you might not agree). Just in time for the festive season and this is one perfect family movie.

5. Borat: Cultural Learnings of America For Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan (28 Dec)
Expect many crude jokes here as Ali G stars as Borat, a reporter from Kazakhstan who is trying to marry Pamela Anderson (crazy stuff). A mad cap movie of enormous proportion (no pun intended), I must say.

6. Blood Diamond (28 Dec)
After a successful outing in The Departed, Leonardo Dicaprio is back in Blood Diamond. Blood Diamond is about the chaos in 1990's Sierra Leone and how a diamond can transform the lives of the people. Jennifer Connelly also stars in this politcal charged film.
