Review :
Actually felt very amazed by the amount of data numbers scrolling thru the movies, its so 'digital'.
Everything seems so powerful n amazing w DNA ;o
From one suspect to another, to the final actual killer, its amazing how the director guides suspense and tension from one character to another.
The prime suspect is really a bishounen too!
Given a petite frame, it makes him easy to dodge n run into hidings from the cops~ Really felt the actual murderer is kinda sick someway... Do catch this movie! I really enjoyed them a lot ^_^

What I did today before the movie, Korean food to start the day!

After that headed to Bugis+ Film Garde for the screening in a rush, successfully smuggled a cup of her fav Gongcha in lol! The movie was really nice!!! I dont know if its just us, but Japan movies are really awesome with lots of unexpected twists to it! The best part we love is that the movie is originally voiced, not dubbed! (cringe*) Sitting in the theater watching a total different language, just makes one feel to be in Japan for a few hrs!

Dinner time was settled at Plaza Singapura! Yummy OMU RICE~

Thats all for the review! Hope you catch the movie! It is screening exclusively at all Film Garde Theaters! 

Signing off with love~
