影評:
身為上班族的我每天上班或下班時,看到身邊有不少上班族每天都營營役役為生活及家庭努力工作及奮鬥,心裡真的很佩服他們。剛踏進社會的我並沒有不適應現在的生活,只是有時候會認真思考一個問題:我的目標是甚麼?以前在大學時代聽講座時講者常常會提出這個問題,可是當時我和朋友們都會覺得很無聊,沒有人可以預計將來,反正十年前跟十年後的我們想法會不一樣,就到時候再算吧!到了現在,我反而覺得這些問題是很實在,人生是我們自己的,為將來打算也是應該的;人只有一輩子的命,當然要訂下一些目標才能激發自己,活出有意義的人生。我曾經有過不同的夢想,只是這種東西會隨著時間而有所改變,而實現夢想更加要配合天時地利人和。電影是改編自真人真事,主角就是懂得抓住機會,才能真正做到自己想做的。Paul Potts(James Corden飾)小時候並不是受歡迎的小孩,他對歌劇的興趣導致他經常被欺凌。他一直與父母(Colm Meaney及Julie Walters飾)同住,長大後他成為一名銷售員,他的老闆Braddon(Mackenzie Crook飾)是他唯一的好朋友。他在網上結識了一名女生Julz(Alexandra Roach飾),素未謀面的他們決定進一步發展他們之間的關係,經過不少的風浪後,二人最後成為夫妻。Paul最後能夠入讀夢寐以求的音樂學院,他失準的處男作令其他同學不願意和他合作,但到最後他和拍檔的表現卻震驚全場。Paul和Julz在財政上遇到困難,Julz便幫助Paul在網上報名參加電視台的才藝節目,Paul的目標也是為了冠軍的獎金。經過幾輪激烈的比賽,他最終脫穎而出得到冠軍殊榮,全世界的人都對他刮目相看。

James Corden是一名很多才藝的演員,他參與過舞台劇、電視劇、節目主持及電影,其歌藝更得到大眾的認同,現時他更擁有一個屬於自己的清談節目,帶給觀眾很多歡樂。他的代表作有Twenty Four Seven、The Three Musketeers及Begin Again。他的演出充滿喜感,為整個故事增加不少有趣的元素,雖然是次演出算不上非常精彩,但的確證明這種演譯方法是適用於大銀幕,同時他為他帶來更多機會。他的下一部推介是The Lady in the Van,電影屬於正劇類型,James Corden應該可以展示他的另一面。Alexandra Roach於2011年出道,她是一位來自威爾士的演員,並已經參演過不少著名的電影,包括The Iron Lady、Trap for Cinderella及Anna Karenina。她演出經驗不算豐富,不過她的喜劇演出和James Corden的相輔相成,兩者的默契成為電影的重點,更配合輕鬆歡樂的氛圍。她的下一部推介是The Huntsman,看她能否把握這次在國際舞台表演的機會。

電影的改編其實保持忠於原著,但導演的表現手法很特別,一般傳記片都會以敍事形式為主,不過這齣電影幾乎大多數都以喜劇元素包裝,最令觀眾意想不到的是電影沒有刻意賣弄林林總總的歌劇,令電影的吸引程度大大增加。演員並不是甚麼一線紅星,平實的演出反而令電影更有說服力,讓人相信電影主角是真的過著這樣有樂趣的生活。電影表達的角度其實對我們而言也是一種啟發,夢想路途是遙遠的,努力是必然要付出的,而調劑就是從生活中的小點滴中尋找及感受的。

Mamma Mia!---媽媽咪呀! "我捨不得妳"

暫時來說,呢部係我在16年以來,最喜愛既一部電影,佢既地位,直乎超越左《仙樂飄飄處處聞》(The Sound of Music)在我心中佔據多年既重要位置。在我眼中,呢部戲幾乎沒有任何既缺點,但在這裡,我當然儘量用中立既態度評論這一部電影。
在演員方面,Meryl Streep、Julie Walters 及 Christine Baranski 既配搭,簡直係最佳拍擋,尤其Meryl Streep 既唱功,都仲可以媲美同劇既Amanda Seyfried。與此同時,刻中既氣氛是其中一個賣點,因為做得好既原故,呢部戲成為左二零零八年全球票房第五位既佳績。唯一要批評既就係d眼角釨高既觀眾,基本上一個原本唱歌經驗既演員,唱得咁既水準,都算係咁,我覺得Pierce Brosnan 都真係幾慘! 評分:
場景:8/10
效果:25/30
內容:20/30
演員:28/30
總分:81/100
