There are some movies which you don’t need to see the trailer to want to watch. This is one of them ~at least for me. I guess it’s just my fascination with Ninjas ~ these unfathomable and almost mystical killing machines and my movie instinct that assured me it was going to be very entertaining [...]

Hearing that this movie has already been circulating before it was even shown, didn’t stop me from making sure I watched it the first day it premiers on cinema. Truly the only way to appreciate this film was to view it on the Big Screen. It’s action packed and entertaining from start to finish. Hugh was outstanding and everything [...]

It’s almost 2 weeks since I last saw a movie. After spending 10 days in my beloved Taiwan, I came back to Manila in need of my movie-fix. It was pleasant to watch a marathon movie on a hot Easter day at Tri-Noma. First up was Fast & Furious 4. It’s nice to have a sequel that [...]

When my sister watched this film few months ago, she encouraged me to watch it especially since I travel a lot. Then one of my good friends was able to watch it too and told me I should definitely watch it as I travel extensively and maybe this movie will scare the s&*^ out of me [...]

Well Underworld: Rise of the Lycans turned out to be a very interesting film that didn’t take much of your time about 1hr [...]

Ok….Front row to the first second film I’ve watched in 2009 was Transporter 3. Frankly, I didn’t expect much from this movie to begin with…obviously because it’s already the third sequel and we all know very well that sequels never truly outshine the original one. But I went to see it anyway for two reasons: [...]

Finally I was able to watch a movie last weekend after what seems like a long respite from my weekly dose of motion picture extravaganza. It has been mentioned over and over again that this movie is from a remake of the 1951 classic sci-fi flick. Well that was not my generation and so I [...]
