"Ice Princess" Movie Review - By Nurlea Laurielle

Ok... so, like, this is the first time ever mek nak buat movie review, in my own words; so peeps, bare with me ok! Ehehehehe.



Hari itiew, couple of days back, I watched Walt Disney Pictures' "Ice Princess". It's basically a story how a high-school, Physics geek, bookworm, that turned into a perfect swan on the ice.

Barisan pelakon:
Michelle Trachtenberg as Casey Carlyle (teringat mek kejap si penyanyi 90s dulu tu, sapa nama dia, Belinda Carlisle? Ehehehe)
Joan Cusack as Casey's mother (dia nih kakak keeee adik kepada actor Jack Cusack itiew? Apa apa pon, memang ruper diaorang, haiyoh - dedekat nak sama. I think kalau Jack Cusack drag, mesti jadik macam Joan Cusack, kan? Eheheeh)
Hayden Panettiere as Gen (yes, pronounced as JEN - like no, tak sama macam Ginger ke Jinger... tu different!) one of the elite skating prodigies.
Kim Cantrall as Tina, Gen's mom and coach, a disgraced former skating champion who has serious attitude problems
And
Trevor Blumas as Teddy, Gen's brother, Tina's son... (asal nama dia teringatkan mek kepada Bulu Mata palsu ek? Hmmmm)

So anyways... it's about this Casey, who secretly simpan this fantasy of becoming a champion figure ice skater, after she did this science project one day about movements of the skaters (so be it called Physics la kan) - She at first studied the steps and movement and what not her project tu, which, kalau meletop, will land her a scholar to Harvard (as her mom yang strong-willed wanted her only child to be in Havard). Later, she discovered the passion for skating; as she memang skate pun, but just mere skating, nothing more than that.



So the drama begins when she has to dash her own mother's hopes and reams to pursue her own dream. Banyak lah bende she had to go through, selain dari her mother, she had to face the three elite skating girls who are ruthlessly competing on the US Figure Skating circuit. And she also had to face the fact that reality bites too.



And when dlm citer2 cam nih, you cannot put aside love stories nye pulak, kan? Yes - Casey not only fell in love with ice skating, but she fell in love with hunky Teddy too. Sweet la mamat tu. Sungguh sensassi dengan mek also. Ehehehehe I can only wish.

So anyways, kalau ade rate, mek kasik 8/10 kot. So so jugaklah, ade part lawak, sedeh, drama, element sakit hati, tapi yang mek suke, ending yang tak semestinya happy tu yang selalu tinggalkan impact. Not to say citer nih sad endingnye, tak. Tgk la sendiri cam mana endingnya :)



Citer nih also tells you about friendship, family ties, love, hate and lies... semua Disney combinedkan. Very good ah... cuma ade some part yang memang hanjeng sangat2.

Part paaaaaling hanjeng yang mek leh detect.

Dalam movie nih, ade one part tu, sort of like a contest thingie, competition should be the word for it. Ok, so apparently, ade lah this two skaters yang mek noticed wore baju masing2 la kan. Akan tetapi, later later dlm movie tu, ade another contest, nahhh! Those two skaters masih berpakaian sama, dan danced music and steps sama on ice. Cam mana? Like... these two girls buat shooting utk scene earlier tu. So for the next later scene tu, they used the shots yang they took in the previous earlier scene. Macam, like, hello!? Apa these directors malas nak direct scene baru ke, thus, nak cut cost and time, terus amik jer shots scene earlier tu, thinking audience tak perasan. Like, duh!?!? I prasaned ok!!! Please lah. Its just such a turn off like "Eh, bukan tadik dia pakai baju yang sama and danced the same number and steps? But I thought that's another contest and this one is another contest?" Duuuhh! Na ah!! Soooo I cannot accept ok! Ehehehehe...

Well - percubaan pertama mek buat movie review, ok dak? Comments please... :)
