I watched Mural 《画壁》!

Story: Young scholar named Zhu, accompanied by his servant, Hou, journeys to the capital to take the imperial examinations. Near an ancient temple, they clash with a swordsman named Meng but later befriend him thanks to the intervention of a monk. Inside the temple, Zhu discovers a mural of painted fairy maidens. To his delight, one of the maidens in the mural comes to life before his very eyes. Unable to resist her beauty, Zhu finds himself and his companions, Hou and Meng, embarking on an adventure as they are transported into the world of the mural.

On the surface, the magical fairy kingdom of the mural appears to an idyllic world where men can fulfill their dreams as long as they obey the rules of the Fairy Queen. Surrounded by a multitude of beauties, Hou and Meng, each meets his fantasy lover. Zhu, however, finds himself torn between two women. But this fantasy world is actually a trap where theirs souls will ultimately be lost. Oblivious to the danger, Zhu tries to appeal to the Fairy Queen with the power of love. Determined to prove that love is merely an illusion; the Fairy Queen decides to destroy the magical kingdom...

After 3D Sex Zen, Mural was the 1st Chinese Epic Movie I have watched so far. The story line was about love triangle among the maidens and all the people kept their feelings inside (Typical Chinese Romance).

For audience who are from the western culture, the movie was kinda like "Sense & Sensibility". I would like to remind some of you might find the movie hard to understand. You might focus on checking out the fashion, animation and graphics. They were unbelievable gorgeous and stunning.

Plus, Director Chen picked the 10 actresses with distinguish classic beauty. The way they looked, talked, moved, paused and showed their emotion... very elegant and different from their personality.


"Life is a dream for the wise, a game for the fool, a comedy for the rich, a tragedy for the poor.' This is the message I have got from the movie. It reminded me "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", my favorite movie.


Don't take everything grant, too serious or careless!

Hope you like the movie too~ Thank you!

Social media is set to explode in the next 18 months and according to Jay, if you aren’t in social media now – you are socio and economically disadvantaged! This is true especially if you are trying to build brands. No matter what industry you are in, social media can help you talk directly to people and listen to what they want.
