Caught these 2 movies in early 2014 and they are pretty good movies in my opinion.

The Secret Life of Walter Mitty.

Didn't have a single idea about the storyline but Ben Stiller is the only reason for watching. He is one of my favourite actor. His shows always crack me up pretty easily. 

I was sharing with Hong how sad Mitty's life is. He spent so much of his time dreaming, dreaming about the possible adventures, dreaming about what could happen if he slapped his bastard boss but all dreams and no actions.Then Hong enlightened me 'Didn't we all spend our life dreaming as well?' Yah!!! We spent our life dreaming! How many of us get to do what we really love and want to? The harsh reality of life does not allow us that luxury. We have to make sure we are sufficiently educated and qualified so that we can get a proper job to earn our own keepings. Then the social constraints will deter you from fulfilling it as well. Come to think of it... This is our life, right? Why do we have to listen to others and the society? Why can't we have absolute control over our life? What's the point of living? Like no point la.

Delivery Man.

Hong wanted to catch this and I was like 'simi show? nice anot?'. Hong's verdict - I will like and I did! 

Mainly about a loser who is trying to find his life/ purpose of life after twist of events. Inspiring and unrealistically positive. But then again, movies can be unrealistic and super duper positive. If our life is already so miserable, isn't it worse if movies only show that aspect as well?
