理想很丰满 现实很骨感

Recently learn a new saying. Salute to the creativity of internet citizen to always come up with these kind of new saying.

理想很丰满  现实很骨感

It means we always hope for ideal or perfect. But reality it is always far from ideal.
The creativity of this saying is that guys always wish to have a girlfriend with big boobs(很丰满) but in reality, they end up with girlfriend that almost no boobs for them to hold (很骨感).

I will use this saying to explain my experience with TGV Beanieplex.
Went to TGV Setiawalk to watch a movie. I have rather high hope or expectation for the beanie bag seat. Hoping for a comfortable soft seat for the movie but end up sitting on a very hard cushion.


The movie itself is a very nice and exciting movie.

Movie name : 逃出生天 (Out of Inferno)
Starring : 刘青云, 李心洁, 古天樂

The script is quite standard. No surprise twist or unexpected ending.
I can be picky though since the setting of the movie sound very unrealistic. An office building that have high tech fire alarm system should have a very expensive space rental. But this same office building also use to store chemical? Warehouse? Clinic? It feels like this is a very cheap commercial building and thus should not have the high tech fire alarm system that is shown in the movie.

 But solid acting performance by the 3 main character save the movie. A firefighter that need to make hard choice in emergency. Even it means helping other before their close relative. A brother who is depressed with the lost of their father because the older brother choose to follow rules instead of trying to save their father. A wife who at first cannot understand her husband till accept the fact. It is interesting to see that 刘青云, and 古天樂 partnership is becoming better. 古天樂 acting has also improved very much since his first appearance in TVB drama.
