Edge of Tomorrow, Uncle Jang, and Bonjour Garden

[F&B]

 

MHB’s Shelyn and Fione came down to KL the day after H-Artistry and I took the opportunity to bring them around for a couple of days. First stop was Uncle Jang in Kota Damansara which said they must visit.

 

Oh yeah and do put on the bib that is provided (even though you might think that only babies wear bibs) to prevent the oil/ sauce from getting on your clothes. Actually I suggest moving away as far as you can from the hot plate while the server prepares the dish.

Pricing wise it was acceptable. The portions were pretty generous but I found that the taste was just average. Not bad…just nothing special to shout about.

We did go to one more restaurant during their little trip and that was Signature at The Roof, First Avenue Bandar Utama. Look out for that post which will be coming soon!

Edge of Tomorrow

[Movie]

 

　　　　Tom Cruise (“Mission: Impossible” films, “Collateral”, “Jerry Maguire”) and Emily Blunt (“The Devil Wears Prada”, “The Adjustment Bureau”) star in the sci-fi thriller “Edge of Tomorrow”, which is directed by Doug Liman (“The Bourne Identity,” “Mr. & Mrs. Smith”). 

“Edge of Tomorrow” unfolds in a near future in which an alien race has hit the Earth in an unrelenting assault, unbeatable by any military unit in the world. Major William Cage (Tom Cruise) is an officer who has never seen a day of combat when he is unceremoniously dropped into what amounts to a suicide mission. Killed within minutes, Cage now finds himself inexplicably thrown into a time loop—forcing him to live out the same brutal combat over and over, fighting and dying again…and again.

But with each battle, Cage becomes able to engage the adversaries with increasing skill, alongside Special Forces warrior Rita Vrataski (Blunt). And, as Cage and Rita take the fight to the aliens, each repeated encounter gets them one step closer to defeating the enemy.

Liman directed “Edge of Tomorrow” from a screenplay by Christopher McQuarrie and Jez Butterworth & John-Henry Butterworth, based on the novel entitled All You Need is Kill by Hiroshi Sakurazaka.

tomcat says –  Think of this one as “Groundhog Day” combined with [insert your fav alien invasion movie]. The editing is pretty good though and you won’t get bored as the day is repeated again and again and again. The plot will keep you on the edge of your seat as Tom Cruise tries to figure out how to defeat the aliens with the help of Emily Blunt. Eye candy for girls and lots of action for guys. Catch this one in IMAX to truly appreciate the movie.

 

Edge of Tomorrow opens in Malaysian cinemas on 29 May 2014.
