Movie Preview: Tower Heist

In this movie preview, I brought a colleague along to watch it with me. It had been eons since I had last watch a movie with a girl friend and when I found out that I had gotten myself 2 tickets from OMY, I knew I had to whatsapp her about it.

Before I share with you guys on my reviews about the show, here's a little synopsis about Tower Heist.
Tower Heist is a 2011 crime comedy film directed by Brett Ratner and written by Ted Griffin and Jeff NAthanson based on a story by Bill Collage, Adam Cooper and Griffin. Main lead actors are of course... Ben Stiller and Eddie Murphy. This show is about how the employees of an exclusive apartment building who lose their pensions in the Ponzi scheme of Wall Street businessman Arthur Shaw steal back their money with the help of an experienced criminal theft (Eddie Murphy).


Pre thoughts about the movie
When I first knew that I had got 2 tickets to the movie, I was really very excited. I must admit that I knew NOTHING about the movie even before entering the movie theatre but the thought about seeing Ben Stiller and Eddie Murphy just excites me. Tuesday was a really stressed up day to end with especially when my head was thinking of solutions and solutions for the whole of TUESDAY! I met up with Rika at 6.30pm after sending one last important email. She was asking me if there was an issue at work and I told her immediately that Eddie Murphy and Ben Stiller better make my day end with a good laughing moments. Eddie Murphy have been my one of my favorite comedian since Big Momma and Nutty professor days. He's just a really very talented guy. Rika and I got a popcorn set to enjoy the movie on our Tuesday Night.

Post thoughts about the movie
I pretty like the storyline of the movie. It shows how 4 noobs have to make their way through a high security building and steal  $20M out from the safe only to find out that the $20m was made of GOLD to build a CAR instead. The story in the beginning was a little too serious for the 2 comedians but I had a great laughing moments towards the end where they had to transport the big and heavy car out from a high level. It was reallly hilarious.



Even though the movie did really make my day end with a good laughter to forget the stress I had at work, I do think that this movie also did gave me some disappointments as it is not as funny as I really expect it to be.

Loudness of my laughter: 2/5

I would also like to take this opportunity to thank omy.sg for the tickets! :)
