BROKEBACK MOUNTAIN ~ 断背山

First of all, let me say that 3 aunties sitting next to me spoiled my viewing of the movie. From beginning to end they talked non-stop. And the comments they passed were like DUH.... They were like laughing at so many parts (yes, laughing!! At what though, I have no idea). Beginning the 2 lead actors were bringing sheep up the mountains, exclaimed "wa! so many sheep!". That wasn't so bad, till the next statement "sheep are very stupid animals, they just follow" came out. Like where in the world did that come from? SHUDDUP AND WATCH THE MOVIE ALREADY!!! See the scene where the 2 guys were making out, they were like "eeee". LIKE WHAT WERE THEY EXPECTING??!!! Gay movie?? R(A) rating?? HELLO AUNTIES!!! In fact, the scene was not all that graphic. Pretty dark and all... Last part of movie should have been touching, they laughed!!! I had tears in my eyes and they laughed??!! ARRGGGHHHHH!!!!!

Most of my friends warned me about the movie being slow-moving and even to the extent of boring... Basically I read the story first and well, like my friends said, a 30/40 something page story can drag for over 2h, you can imagine. Interesting story and well, closet gays like most in our Asian society (reminds me of how a few of me friends seem to be bordering between bi and gay. Think even they themselves are unsure.).

Wonder if the movie actually brought out the gay tendencies in Heath Ledger and Jake Gyllenhaal. Heard they're really close now and Heath Ledger has asked Jake Gyllenhaal to be the godpa of his kid. Kirsten Dunst used to complain how boring her boyfriend was, this oughta spice things up. Haha.

Pity Heath Ledger's character's wife in the movie. Well, that's the saddest thing that can happen to a woman, losing out to another guy. I kinda know how that feels. It's bad enough losing to another woman, but when it's another guy, what chance have you got at all?

Recommend this movie to those who haven't watched it yet. But if you're looking for something of a no-brainer, I've been strongly advised to watch "The Pink Panther". Just laugh laugh laugh laugh laugh.

TO THE 3 AUNTIES WHO WATCHED BROKEBACK MOUNTAIN AT PLAZA SING ON 1ST MARCH 2006, 645PM, SITTING AT SEATS L13-15, PLEASE DO NOT WASTE OTHER PEOPLE'S MONEY NEXT TIME. JUST GO WATCH NO-BRAINERS OK??
