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 [...]

The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet’s Nest

The last of the Millennium trilogy you will surely want to see especially since it’s very much connected with the second installment.  This film doesn’t contain a lot of action, but followers of this series will still be captivated by the plot and can’t wait what the ending holds.  All in all, viewers must realize [...]

This film is about childhood friendship that turns into teenage love and a very long engagement after the war broke, hence the title.  A lot of people are comparing this [...]

Sucker Punch & Limitless

There are three things similar with these two films : uniqueness in execution, creativity in storyline and amazing visuals.  Sucker Punch’s CGI effects are awesome and I highly recommend to watch it on the big screen.  Limitless’s visuals are transporting and really gives you a 3D feel even though it is not. Now that says [...]

Unknown

A great film and with a creative plot.  It’s nice to see Liam Neeson getting some good scripts for someone who is almost 60 years old! And doing action movies to boot! He’s believable, doesn’t look  awkward and still has his charm. Unlike…Nicholas Cage who looks physically harassed in his recent films.  It was also [...]

Inception (in 2D)

This movie is sheer genius and a sci-fi masterpiece!   Kudos to Christopher Nolan for his great imagination & dream on writing and directing this film.  And of course, as always; another notable movie choice for Leonardo DiCaprio.  James Franco & Rachel McAdams were suppose to play the other lead characters but was replaced by [...]
