Being one of Paul Walker’s fan, I don’t miss any of his movies. I was excited when this was shown finally. I rushed to Ayala Cinemas here in Cebu, Philippines.
The story according to what I’ve read is an interquel from the second and third movie.
The movie was …
Troll 2 movie

The plot is essentially about Goblins that turn humans into plant-like matter …
The Long Weekend
The Long Weekend is an underrated movie that not many people would know about. I’m not sure when the movie was set, but there are just lots of DVDs lying around my home, brought my siblings or my parents, rented, bought; you name it, there are just a whole …
The Sentinel movie
When the actor, Michael Douglas chooses to do a thriller, 99.9% it is a guarantee that is going to be a good one. “The Sentinel” confirms this theory. Douglas involvement in this project is simply great. His on screen sparks with Kiefer Sutherland are a guarantee to make you …
Drowning Mona
Drowning Mona is a very funny movie inspite of the fact that a lady dies in the very opening scene. The woman is Mona and Bette Midler played the character in a very convincing and powerful way. She dies in the very first scene when her car falls in …
Valentine movie
Valentine with David Boreanaz and Denise Richards.
This horror clone of Friday the 13th is an entertaining flick, but since it has been preceded by many similar works of the same pattern it loses its attraction. Generate an unknown masked killer with a grudge. Insert …

16 Blocks

Rabbit Hole movie
Rabbit Hole is the best drama that I’ve seen this year. The film has to offer that quality of that the drama watchers want and they will love it. A very sensitive issue is exposed in a way that makes your bones shake, and the professionalism of the …
Angry Beavers
“Angry Beavers” was a Nickelodeon cartoon which used to air on the channel Nickelodeon in the late nineteen nineties, and the early 2000s. When I first discovered it though, I didn’t watch it because I found the cartoon annoying despite the fact that at the time I had not …
Nine (2009)
I went to see Nine because my sister is a big fan of musicals and wanted to see the screen adaptation of this one. I did not expect to like the movie that much, and I must say that I found it entertaining.

The Curios Case Of Benjamin Button
When I went to see this movie I was excited, it looked interesting and I thought it would be funny, something happy for the long and often depressing holidays. The movie kept me interested, but just barely, I should have just stopped watching it right away, but I kept …

If you’re looking for a romantic comedy just like Letters to Juliet, then this movie is even better! This has so much comedic parts actually than romantic parts while the setting is set in the lovely country of Rome. The plot is actually about a girl (Kristen Bell) who …

Top Secret! movie
An american rock star is having a performance in Germany. What he doesn’t know is that the performance is really a cover-up for a political meeting.
This film features Val Kilmer in one of his early roles, strangely enough in a comedy as it is. The tone is that of …
Viva Baseball Documentary
“Viva Baseball” is a 2005 documentary about Latino baseball players and the affects Latinos have had on baseball. I’m a big baseball fan and like fans everywhere am familiar with the 1947 the year the “color” barrier was broken when Jackie Robinson became a Brooklyn Dodger, but I was …

I’m a big fan of jazz, baseball, and history so when I heard about the 2007 movie “American Pastime” that is based on a real story, deals with the internment of the West Coast Japanese during World War II, and deals with baseball and jazz, I was hooked. What …

Thelma and Louise
This is definately a movie worth watching if you haven’t seen it yet. It has Susan Surandon in it. It’s about two girls that go off on a trip and one of the girls get rapped along the way. I think it is a wonderful story and the whole …

Strawberry Shortcake: Adventures on Ice Cream Island
OK, prior to having a daughter, I didn’t even know Strawberry Shortcake had a cartoon series; let along episodes on DVD. However, I will admit Adventures on Ice Cream Island is a decent DVD to rent if you want your daughter to be occupied for about 45 minutes.
The DVD …

Starring: Ian McCulloch, Alexandra Delli Colli, Sherry Buchanan, Peter O’Neal, Donald O’Brien, Dakkar, and Walter Patriarca.

If you want a bad zombie movie, you just found one. “Zombie Holocaust” is a cult flick much like “Night of the Zombies”, “The Beyond”, and “Zombi 2″, all of which were …
Gladiator
“Gladiator” is the director’s, Ridley Scott blogbuster that made the then unknown actor, Russell Crowe a much sought out actor in Hollywood. It is a true pity that, although this movie won 5 Oscars, Scott failed to win the best director category. He was very much disappointed for not …
Running Scared
It’s like a mystery/suspense/thriller type movie with the mob theme thrown in. I honestly did not expect the movie to be as great as I though it was. The first 15 minutes or so, it will look like a cheap, predictable cliche mob flick, but it gets a lot …
Saving Sarah Cain
Saving Sarah Cain is a movie I stumbled across one day when I was kind of bored of the usual stuff. It grabbed my attention because it was about a city girl raising her sister’s Amish children. It is a great way of learning more about this rather quite …
Barracuda by Philippe Haim
French cinema has always been boring to me. However, I cannot say so for Barracuda. This French thriller is absolutely disturbing and I do not recommend it for sensitive souls. The beginning is calm but then it is followed by a merciless duel between the two main characters.
Mr Clement …
District 9 movie
Before I went to see District 9 last Friday in the movie theatre, I actually had no idea what it was going to be about. I had seen the advertisements on television and I had known that it was going to be a Science Fiction film with aliens, and …
Bedtime Stories
I have been a fan of Walt Disney. It fascinates me to imagine and dream about fantasy. I grabbed a copy of Bedtime Stories and i eagerly played it on my dvd.
By anticipation we thought, and as the title suggests that its the typical story telling time …

Fool’s Gold
I think the collaboration between Matthew McConaughey and Kate Hudson is kind of cool and awesome, and in this movie, Fool’s Gold they collaborated once more in this title, Fool’s Gold. If you have forgotten the other movie which they have starred together, it would be ‘How to Lose …

21 Jump Street starring Channing Tatum and Jonah Hill (2012 Movie)
This updated version of the television classic that starred Johnny Depp has been highly anticipated, and it has received a lot of great reviews. This comedy is funny, likable and very entertaining.
I never watched the original 21 Jump Street TV series, and when I heard they were making a …
Life or Something Like It
“Life or Something Like It” is definitly not one of the best Angelina Jolie’s movies. Infact she was nominated for the Razzie Awards for her part in this movie. Jolie is not great in this movie because, for one thing, she is wearing blond hair and looks like a …
G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra
If you are thinking on watching G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra, it’s worth your money, trust me. That’s what I feel on the whole. This movie has the ever-rising and handsome Channing Tatum as the main character, I suppose and he will be really big in future, …
Scary Movie
I could still remember when I saw the very first Scary Movie sequel. I watched it on VCD, and the whole time while watching this comedy movie made me laugh out loud. The jokes were very funny and the spoof that they made was totally funny as …
Weird Science (movie)
Even though it hasn’t gotten a very good rating, the movie “Weird Science” is one of those teenage coming of age comedies that I think a lot of people consider as a classic somewhat. I personally never really liked it because it was exceptional, but I liked it because …
Copying Beethoven
I actually found the movie “Copying Beethoven” by accident as I had confused it with another movie I had seen years earlier and was searching high and low for a very long time. As soon as I saw the movie begin, I realised that it was not the movie …
Ninjas Vs. Vampires, movie (2011)
Endlight Entertainment’s Ninjas Vs. Vampires is not a movie that is meant to be watched alone. Don’t take that statement as this is the scariest movie ever made, although it does have a few jumps and some decent blood-spilling. This is a movie where you have some …
Artic Tale (2007)
This is a wonderful animal movie for both children and adults. I guess you could say it is a true story as nature photographers filmed it up in the artic (the animals are not trained acting animals - they are the real thing). Words were added to the picture …
