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.

Somebody is giving Angelina Jolie a run for her money…but probably its more of…FINALLY there is an ACTRESS who can play this kind of action role aside from Jolie. I [...]

Sherlock Holmes

I wonder if Robert Downey Jr., have foreseen his comeback when he was serving time in jail in the late nineties.  I always deem he was a remarkable actor, but even that didn’t stop me from wondering if he will ever get back on his feet.  Well I guess we have to thank somebody in [...]
