CITY ISLAND is a family laugh riot. It’s brilliant, original, and unbelievably funny. Andy Garcia and Juliana Marguelis are at their best. It’s one of the few dysfunctional family movies out there that just gets… Read the rest of this entry »

When you marry someone, you marry the family too. That statement rings true when you’re born and raised in a culture that values family above everything else, such is the case with OUR FAMILY WEDDING… Read the rest of this entry »

The movie tries too hard to set down a trend or bring back the rating system. It’s hoping that when you come home from the cinema, you’d start rating people you encounter and suddenly the term ‘moodle’ would catch on. But… Read the rest of this entry »

To say that this is practically Jason Bourne in a military uniform wouldn’t be too far-fetched. GREEN ZONE is another action-packed collaboration of Damon-Greengrass where all the other aspects including narratives are put aside, even the conspiracy runs thin because when it comes down to it,… Read the rest of this entry »

CAPITALISM: A LOVE STORY as I said in my review last year is a fierce, touching and honest look into the heart of the problem of what Michael Moore strongly believes to be America’s road to demise, that is unless a certain radical steps are taken early on.

I try to laugh at the r-rated jokes in this movie but COP OUT falls flat. The only best part is the music which oddly takes us back to the old buddy cop movies of the 80s but other than that, watching COP OUT makes you numb,… Read the rest of this entry »

I wanna say I enjoy this movie but that would be too generous. THE CRAZIES definitely has its scary moments, a decent update, great cast as well, definitely better than most horror remakes we’ve seen lately, it’s a good popcorn flick, that is if you could stomach the blood and the violence but… Read the rest of this entry »

For the most part Martin Scorsese does my favorite book justice, SHUTTER ISLAND focuses on Ted Daniels’ slow but sure journey spiraling down to either madness or reality. Any author Denis Lehane’s fans like yours truly won’t be disappointed by this adaptation. On the other hand,… Read the rest of this entry »

I didn’t read the Rick Riordan book so I’m not able nor will I try to make any sort of comparison but the movie itself is a big disappointment. PERCY JACKSON is to director Chris Columbus what Vampire’s Assistant was to Paul Weitz. These are two filmmakers who are… Read the rest of this entry »
