2011 December : Up in the Air Movies with Singapore Airlines

The past few months before December 2011, I got so busy that I wasn’t able to have my regular dose of movies. As much as I was eager to take my vacation to Paris & Switzerland come December, I must admit that I was also excited to be on that long haul flight from Manila [...]

Back to Back ~ Mission Impossible : Ghost Protocol & Sherlock Holmes : A Game of Shadows

After more than two weeks of movie draught, there is no way I will miss the first day showing of Sherlock Holmes or the re-showing of Mission Impossible.  So as early as Saturday morning, I booked my seats via the ever reliable Shang Cineplex. First up is Mission Impossible : Ghost Protocol.  There’s a lot [...]

Rise of the Planet of the Apes

Captain America : The First Avenger

Transformers : Dark of the Moon

The good thing about action adventure films is that you don’t really need to ‘think’ or to ‘analyze’ the story. Because if you do, there are so many loop holes that it will just give you a headache.  This third Transformers sequel is one such movie.  The moment it started, I just made my mind [...]
