I've always loved Malay titles of movies! They are just adorable!
The most memorable one would probably be the movie "Eraser", where the initial Malay title for it was "Pemadam"... till i think a lot of people noticed and all, only they changed it to some other title!
Nowadays not a lot of movies have their titles translated to Malay, but i've always like to change the title myself!
For example, Eagle Eye would be "Mata Helang", whereas Painted Skin would be "Kulit Berwarna"! Isn't it hilarious??

Ok, maybe only I find it hilarious (= =")... but i seriously find it cute lar, and it amuses me to no ends! One of the perks of being Malaysian =D!
Went to watch Kulit Berwarna... i mean, PAINTED SKIN, with A and B today (no, i'm not C)!
And this movie proves that i *really* dislike Chen Kun. He had one slight chance at redemption when his character refused the temptation of the "demon" because he loved his wife a lot and all... i was like, "wow, such man are rare"... but it was all gone the second he told the demon "i love you, but i already have my wife..." like... what the hell!! So do you love your wife or not??
If he say "i really like you, but i already have my wife..." it's a different story. Wording matters. Because from what i see, the demon is only a "temptation" to him as she seduces him. I don't see any prove or reason where is the "love" he felt for her lor. It's more of lust. If having perverted dreams of her makes him *thinks* he loves her, then i can only say how i look down at our chromosome XY. Seriously.
Sorry, i think i'm too influenced by fairy tales of true love and Edward and Bella (sorry not Romeo and Juliet; i think it's damn stupid to die for love.). I know it doesn't exactly exist nowadays, but it's nice to at least be able to hear/ watch/ read about them.
So all-in-all, i still don't like Chen Kun... actually, even if he didn't did what he did, i will still don't like him lar. Maybe i was just finding excuses to dislike him?
Anyways, i think it's face problem. Like Rainie Yang's case - i can never muster enough enthusiasm to even like her no matter what. And i think Chen Kun's case is partially because he always acts as slightly hamsap character with lotsa bed scenes... very kialang, me scared.
Conclusion, Painted Skin is kinda a good movie, Zhao Wei is a good actress, very touching story about love and sacrifice... if only they can get another actor as the lead... hehehe...
Ooh, btw, High School Musical can be "Sekolah Menengah Musikal" don't you think XD!!!
