I am dying to catch this movie for three very simple reasons:

1) Vin Diesel is the lead actor.
He is one of my all time favourite Hollywood actors. When it comes to action movies, he is THE man! Saving Private Ryan, The Fast and Furious and xXx are some of the great movies Vin Diesel has acted in, and I definitely do not want to miss this movie for anything.


2) Michelle Yeoh, the other lead.
I don't think she needs introduction. She is the pride of all asians, the pride of Malaysia. One of the most successful chinese exports to Hollywood. She has been involved in too many good movies, but the most memorable one (IMO) was her Award-winning role in Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon. I love her acting, she is natural, her accent is just nice, not too "flowery" and suits both the asian and caucasian market.


3) Its a Science Fiction film. And this is one of my favourite genre of movies. I am a big fan of all Sci-Fi movies like Matrix, Men in Black and Independance Day.

I can't wait for this movie to be released in Singapore!
