<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><b>MOVIE INFO</b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Peter Berg produces and directs Battleship, an epic-scaled action-adventure that unfolds across the seas, in the skies and over land as our planet fights for survival against a superior force. Inspired by Hasbro's classic naval combat game, Battleship stars Taylor Kitsch as Lt. Alex Hopper, a Naval officer assigned to the USS John Paul Jones; Brooklyn Decker as Sam Shane, a physical therapist and Hopper's fiancée; Alexander Skarsgård as Hopper's older brother, Stone, Commanding Officer of the USS Sampson; Rihanna as Petty Officer Raikes, Hopper's crewmate and a weapons specialist on the USS John Paul Jones; and international superstar Liam Neeson as Hopper and Stone's superior (and Sam's father), Admiral Shane. -- (C) Universal</span><br />
<br />
<b>MOVIE REVIEW:</b><br /><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia;"><strong>Battleship</strong> is a bloated masterpiece that has favorable loop holes but ends up utterly entertaining due to its superb visuals and effects.<br />
</span><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia;">
</span><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia;">So far, <strong>Battleshi</strong>p is one of the most expensive B-Movies that is Transformers-wannabe and Alien-inspired flick. The strength of the movie lies on its solid Editing and Cinematography. Hatts off to the film's visuals as realistic war perfectly combined with science fiction characters. Like, the whole film is a roller coaster of impressive warships, weapons and alien powers. I really loved the action scenes during the combat of aliens and US Navy War ships. You could really see and feel that the Director has invested on its Production value. On this aspect, Battleship makes itself distinct from all other Alien-inspired slash End-of-the-World themed flicks as it divert its plot to utilizing the best weapons, technologies and ships to fight againts gigantic alien-operated space ships and devices. I just had a little problem with the Climax, I find it to be cut-short. I did not expected it to end that way. I mean, the Director failed to give a Climax that would really put a solid mark on the film's greatest victory in the end.</span></div>
<span style="font-family: Georgia;">

<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
On the other hand, I see loop holes in the film's Plot and storyline. It is a little bit slow at first and shortcuts were kinda evident the whole time. Although the film took time to establish a story, I still believe that some scenes were uneccessary. It started with a premise of the Hopper brothers joining both together in the <strong>US Navy</strong>. Then, sopported by a Naval Exercise in time of the sending of transmission to outer space for possible planets and discoveries. Of course, ending up with a response transmission from an unknown vessel operated by aliens or extra-terrestrial beings. The film indeed lacks substance. At most, I think its non-sense. I see a less effort on establishing a good plot at the beginning on how come the aliens came to Earth. I mean, it could have been explained and narrated in a way that it would compliment on the film's superb editing. At some point, I see the film contained on the oceans and skies. I expected more actions on the land too.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<strong>Acting-wise,</strong> the film is quite solid although some bad acting skills and bad dialogues are found on the film. Taylor was good in the film althoug he could do a lot better than that. Rihanna is fairly good too. I really can see her to be the next Mila J. or Angelina J. in the future. I am just disappointed with Liam Neeson's role in the film. The Director lost grip to his character. I sometimes feel he is an extra on the film given the fact that he has vital role too in the story. The Director must hold a grip on every characters in the story so as to have a solid plot too in the end. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Well, thanks to the film's editing and visuals, <strong>BATTLESHIP</strong> will still be one of the Most Expensive B-Movies that really needs a pretty good makeover on its Plot/Storyline. But hey, its still one of the best movies this year.</div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><b>REVIEW</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">After the success of <i><b>Yanggaw</b></i>, <b>Director Richard Somes</b> has fully evolved from an indie film-maker towards a promising mainstream horror-suspense director through <b>Corazon: Ang Unang Aswang.</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><b><br /></b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">What more can I say? As an avid horror fanatic, I really must say that this film is the best Pinoy horror film made by an independent film-maker. What's great about Corazon: Ang Unang Aswang is that it brought the genre onto a whole new level.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-j5R5yxOw-78/T2FdbjkuldI/AAAAAAAAAbo/hMvexmKpg7o/s1600/-DSC4963-JPG_120042.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="265" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-j5R5yxOw-78/T2FdbjkuldI/AAAAAAAAAbo/hMvexmKpg7o/s400/-DSC4963-JPG_120042.jpg" width="400" /></a></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">The plot may at first be slow since the film is trying to establish the story of <i>Corazon and Daniel</i> as a hopeful couple wanting to have their own child. But, what is great with Director Richard is that the slow phase at the start is a progressing scheme that will lead you the conclusion on why did Corazon became an <b>"aswang"</b> on the latter.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><i>Director Richard Somes </i>took the first hour of the film to create an atmosphere wherein viewers could have a better grasp on the film's premise on becoming a <b>"Monster" or "Aswang"</b> that you wouldn't thought you would be. Its not about those scary and wild creatures with bloody faces and sharp teeth. Its more so of the societal problem. On how the society and even the people create monsters within themselves and to their fellowmen. It has a psychological approach to horror that has been creatively crafted in one film. I really commend how Direk Richard combined all these elements and thus, coming up with a very beautiful masterpiece.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">The film's strength also lies in its wonderful <b>Cinematography</b>. I love the whole texture of the film. The texture blended well with its Production and the 1946 timeline setting. Its old and very Pinoy. I love the village scene and even the plains and forests. The 1946 timeline was consistent all throughout and is very evident in their lifestyle, houses, clothing and even the dialects used. Production cost my not be evidently high and costly, but generally, the film is consistent. Prosthetic-wise, it's good but it needs more improvement on some aspects. Nevertheless, the film scared me at some point though scary scenes are somewhat minimal.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">The sound engineering and musical scoring was also good. It added on the film's aura and appeal. I just had a little problem on the lights used during night scenes. It is so bright. I expected it to be somewhat darker just like the technique Direk Richard used in filming Yanggaw. On some point, night scenes were like staged production and less realistic. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Acting-wise, I'm pretty impressed with the casts especially <b>Erich Gonzales</b>, who really did shine in this film. Erich's versatility as an actress has fully evolved in <i>Corazon: Ang Unang Aswang.</i> She deserves an award for her epic performance. I'm glad Erich has been given this big break. On the other hand, being the universal leading man, <b>Derek Ramsay</b> also showed his acting prowess and complimented well and effectively to Erich's character. Derek has also shown great performances in this film. Notable performances from <i>Tetchie Agbayani and Mark Gil, Mon Confiado and Epy Quizon also contributed to the film's strength. </i></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">There are a lot of Aswang films that have been shown on theaters, but<b> Corazon: Ang Unang Awang is very unique among them all. </b>This film gave a clear personification on how are monsters created in the society. The film will give you a great but open ending. An ending that might be a birth of more questions for its viewers... </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Just a piece of advise, don't look at this film as a horror one... More so, treat this film on a realistic basis... an in-depth approach to the creature we called<b> "Aswang".</b></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><b>REVIEW:</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><b><br /></b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">You may see a similar formula of <b>"No Strings Attached"</b> and <b>"Friends with Benefits"</b> in this film, but undeniably, <b>UNOFFICIALLY YOURS</b> is by far, one of the best Pinoy Romantic Comedy that has truly exceeded the "conservative mark".</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">The whole film really works for me. I mean, its not an extraordinary film but its a good one. Even though its plot may not be original, but the attack of the story is very Filipino. I can see a whole new flavor of <b><i>RomCom Formulas</i></b> that are not so typical in Pinoy films nowadays. Finally, a semi-liberated film with rich of values and learning is now on birth... thanks to this film, its great casts and to <i>Direk Cathy's artistic mind. </i></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><b>Unofficially Yours</b> is utterly entertaining and dramatic on the end part. The progression started as <b>Mackie</b> (<i>John Lloyd) and </i><b>Cess</b><i> (Angel Locsin) </i>enjoy each other's company through several sexual intercourse and a casual treatment with each other. But, when their destinies met in the same work place. Their whole journey has just begun...</span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif; text-align: left;">They resume their sexual trysts, with the agreement that there are absolutely no strings attached and that they are forbidden to fall in love with each other. </span><span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Mackie however starts to fall for Ces, whose strong personality soften as Mackie starts being so nice to her.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">The film's formula is very effective in making this film at par from any other Pinoy RomComs. Aside from its courageous and liberated approach to the concept of Pinoy love nowadays, the charm of its two great casts: John Lloyd and Angel has effectively brought "kilig" to its audiences across all gender. Supported with talented characters such as K Brosas, Edgar Allan Guzman, Melissa Mendez, Tetchie Agbayani and the Martinez Siblings, you'll never get bored the entire film.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span style="line-height: 18px;"><b style="font-style: italic;">Cinematography-wise, </b>the l</span><span style="line-height: 18px;">ove scenes are artistically and professionally done in a way that it wouldn't look like an R-Rated Film. Transitions and editing is fairly smooth. I also love the film's Sound Engineering. </span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span style="line-height: 18px;"><br /></span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span style="line-height: 18px;">The main strength of this film lies on the Acting prowess of the casts especially John Lloyd and Angel. Direk Cathy has brought the best within every characters in the film. </span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span style="line-height: 18px;"><br /></span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span style="line-height: 18px;">The film may at some point sound cliche, but the film is very relatable. Unofficially yours is a film that will entertain you and teach you a lesson in the end. It may not appeal to the conservative belief of others, but its realism formula made this film a blockbuster hit.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span style="line-height: 18px;"><br /></span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span style="line-height: 18px;">I am not a fan of Pinoy RomComs but I did not regret watching Unofficially Yours.</span></span><br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Well, March is just around the corner and I already could envision thousands of togas to be worn and diplomas to be given away.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Of course, the competition and struggle doesn't end in the four corners of the campus hence it gets tougher in the outside world - the World of Employment. I know a few percentage of the graduates shall venture into self-employment and business. Majority will eventually land on a job. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Therefore, I am giving away my personal tips to all Graduating college students out there. I may not be that kind of "experienced one" (Oops! I've been an employee for almost 2 years to date) but I'm sure my small tips could be a great starter to some of you.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">1. Of course, the very BASIC ONE, <b>"Never Assume Unless Stated"</b>. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Which means, finish first all your Graduation requirements (maybe Academic or Extra-Curricular) before planning any Trips and Graduation Parties. Don't be too confident and easy-go-lucky. Remember, unless you don't have your name printed in the diploma, you are not an official Graduate yet. In bisaya, "AYAW KAAYO I-FEEL"!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">2.<b> Set Goals and target a Career</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">This is I think the most critical part after graduation... You need to know your goals. Try to ask yourselves, do I want to land on a job or do I want to own a business? You need to weigh things up. Being an employee and being self-employed is a whole new different aspect with pros and const. Discern and ask advice from your parents and close friends. You don't want to regret such in the end. Be practical and think 5 years ahead so that you could envision yourself to which path will you choose. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">3. <b>Have a Break</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><b><br /></b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">C'mon! This is so true. You've been going to school since Nursery up to College. That's almost 20 years or more of your life. Why not allot even a month or several months after vacation. Go on a trip with your family and friends. Enjoy the moment of being finally free from the four corners of your school. Treat yourself. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">4. <b>Prepare your Resume and Requirements</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Well, after you have taken a vacation or a break. You need to prepare your Comprehensive Resume and the basic requirements you will be needing in finding a job. Equip yourselves with such documents so that it would be an easy access for future jobs and employment opportunities out there. Make sure that your Resume is updated, the picture attached is colored and formal and the entries are complete, brief and reliable. Make sure also that you have fixed your School papers such as DIPLOMAS, Transcript of Records and the like. And also, print 5-10 copies of your resume. You would not just settle for a single job posting right?</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">5. <b>Be more aggressive ONLINE.</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">If you have the resources such as the Internet and laptop, why not use it for Job Hunting. Instead of being on Facebook all day, try visiting online classified ads and job postings. There are thousands of job opportunities online if you just have the patience in finding one. There are some companies which requires online submission of resume so be sure to have a soft copy of it. The Online World is at its peak this century so it is better to use such technology in finding wonderful job opportunities.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">6. <b>Never expect a HIGH SALARY right away</b></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">This is I think the misconceptions of every fresh graduate out there. Lower your expectations guys. You are a fresh graduate. Therefore, your rate is far from those who are skilled and experienced one. You may be a graduate of a prestige school or may have be "LAUDE", but hey... you are all Fresh Graduates. You are likely to start from an average salary rate (depending on your job). Don't be too choosy. Always remember that millions of unemployed persons are out there dying to have a job. If you have the opportunity, grab it. Sooner, you'll be investing experiences and learning that would be a great help towards a greener pasture in the future.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;">Being a Horror-fanatic, <b>Segunda Mano</b> is a big disappointment for me!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 14px;">Well, this hugely staged and produced film by Star Cinema and Kris' and Dingdong's Film </span></span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;">Outfit</span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;"> unfortunately added itself to the roaster of disappointments especially in the Pinoy Horror Genre. After a not-so-good reviews on </span><b style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;">"Dalaw"</b><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;">, here comes another film of Kris that gets even worst every year. Indeed, nothing can beat those <b>"Feng Shui"</b> and <b>"Sukob"</b> days.</span></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;"><br /></span></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;">At first, I am having a little doubt on Director Joyce Bernal applying her craft on a horror one. Well, my doubt was right. With a shallow plot but good twists, Segunda Mano is an overrated film that leads nowhere.</span></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 14px;"><br /></span></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 14px;">I think the Major Problem of the film is that it lacks impact and scare factor compared to other Kris' films. The movie can be a lot a better than it is. The scare scenes didn't work out for me. The movie was partly boring and blank most of the time. <b>Direk Joyce Bernal</b> didn't play with every scene and it felt like it was just what you see is what you get technique. I mean, in a Horror film, the director must focus in every detail and factor that would send shivers down your spine. </span></span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 14px;">The reason also why it did not look scarier that it should be is the Editing. Although, cinematography and film texture is undeniably good, the editing especially during the appearance of the ghost in every scene is an <b>EPIC FAIL. </b>They should have studied well Editing techniques in a Horror film since this is very vital in general.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 14px;"><br /></span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 14px;">Plot-wise, Segunda Mano is averagely-crafted. The reason why its average because it's kinda bloated at some point. Like, the "bag" thing started in nearly the 45-minute length. Some scenes could have been shorter and more haunting and scare scenes should have been added. The Climax, however, was good and full of suspense. I just had a little problem with the progression of the scenes from the first. </span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 14px;"><br /></span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 14px;">The strength of <b>Segunda Mano</b> lies in its Cinematography and Casts. Cinematography in a sense that I love the film's texture, sound effects and arrangements. The Editing of the ghost during scare scenes was just the problem.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 14px;"><br /></span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 14px;">The Casting was also great and talented. I see a bigger improvement with </span><b style="line-height: 14px;">Kris Aquino's</b><span style="line-height: 14px;"> acting. </span><b style="line-height: 14px;">Dingdong Dante</b><span style="line-height: 14px;">, on the otherhand, did a great portrayal as Kris' partner. He is just as charming as ever. </span><b style="line-height: 14px;">Jhong Hilario</b><span style="line-height: 14px;"> and </span><b style="line-height: 14px;">Helen Gamboa </b><span style="line-height: 14px;">have both given a fair performance. The biggest surprise and the one that saved the film (for me) was <b>Bangs Garcia</b>. She was such a revelation in this film. I so love her portrayal and humor in the film.</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 14px;"><br /></span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 14px;">Generally, Segunda Mano could have been better and scarier. </span></span><br />

<i>I think this would be a hit considering Kris Aquino's market viability in Horror Genre and the fact that is a Star Cinema Production. I just have doubts on Direk Joyce Bernal directing a horror film. But, let us give chance to this film. The plot might be a little overrated and shallow due to the premise over a bag's terrible history, but I think the film's jump-out scares might work for Pinoy fans. To think, Kris Aquino is very influential (though not a good horror actress) and so is the much awaited Dingdong Dantes as her partner in this film. Again, I'll be seeing Kris' weird face during scare scenes. </i></div>

Director Jerrold Tarog makes his second appearance in the <em>SRR </em>franchise with the episode <em>Parola</em>. For the young filmmaker, this comes right on the heels of his latest worl, <em>Aswang</em>, starring Lovi Poe and Paulo Avelino.</div>

“It’s pretty tiring,” Direk Jerrold bluntly admits. “But the good thing is that <em>Parola </em>is a totally different concept from<em>Aswang</em>, which makes visualizing the project easy.”</div>

<div style="padding-bottom: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; text-align: justify;">
He also cites why his inclusion in this year’s <em>SRR </em>is extra special. “The other episodes are going to be helmed by two directors whom I have great respect for. I’m not so much pressured as I am in awe.</div>

<i><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">What's new nowadays with SRR Franchise. It gets worse every year. Like, the more advance film editing is, the less scarier SRR Films were produced over the Jubilee Years. I still love the SRR films before (noting on Aiza Siguerra and Manilyn Reynes' time). Well, even though the franchise sucks, it is still up in the MMFF roaster of films and still do good business in the box-office. But, some episodes are good though. Based on the trailer, SRR 13 seems to be a better one. (I hope so) Thanks to the power-house casts and directors. </span></i></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><i>Box-office wise, <b>Enteng ng Ina Mo</b> would really do great. In fact, as of now, this is the Most Anticipated Film on the list. Aside from its gigantic powerhouse cast, Film Outfit (Star Cinema Octoarts, APT and M-Zet) and Vic-Ai2x team-up, its media mileage is far bigger compared with other entries this year. As always, Comedy and fantasy-inspired films do well during MMFF. Both Vic & Ai-ai had proven themselves to be box-office queen and king of this industry so Enteng ng Ina Mo wouldn't sweat even a single drop in enticing audiences to watch because they have the undeniable charisma and crowd-drawing factor.</i></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><i>After the successful debut of Panday comes the much bigger sequel, "Ang Panday 2". In terms of visual effects and production, the film really brought out a big budget. Although I found the trailer to be loaded with CGI effects (which is already overrated) and the controversial copying of the "Kraken" figure in Hollywood. "Ang Panday 2" will still make it to the Top 3 film this year. Bong Revilla's charm still works nowadays especially for those fantasy-film lovers. It may be a bit serious compared with Vic Sotto's film, but I think it will give Enteng ng Ina Mo and Segunda Mano a good fight in the box office records. More or less, this film falls on the 2nd or 3rd spot. Thanks to its powerhouse casts (especially the addition of Marian Rivera) and an able Film outfit (GMA Films)</i></span></div>

What more I can say, Pinoys are less interested in this kind of genre despite a good plot and a power house cast. Considering the head-to-head battles of gigantic films this year, this film will be in possible drowning. I just hope many Pinoys can still appreciate these kind of films that reflect social relevance and family values. I just hope so.</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">The 3D, CG-Animated Family Comedy <b>"Arthur Christmas",</b> an Aardman Production for Sony Pictures Animation, reveals this incredible, never-before seen answer to every child's question, <i>"So how does Santa deliver all those presents in one night?". </i>The answer: Santa's exhilarating, ultra-high-tech operation hidden beneath the North Pole. But at the heart of the film is a story with ingredients of a Christmas Classic - a family in a state of comic dysfunction and an unlikely hero, Arthur, with an urgent mission that must be completed before Christmas Morning dawns --- (C) Sony Pictures </span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><b>Arthur Christmas</b> is probably the Best Animated Flick this year! Aside from the fact that it is all about the happiest season of the year, <i><b>Christmas</b></i>, the film boast a delightful and lovable plot that will surely please not only the children but also adults.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">This film brings you back to the <i><b>Old Christmas Tradition</b></i> about Santa Claus and his gift-giving activities every Christmas Eve. It is just refreshing to reminisce the moment you have discovered the Celebration of Christmas when you're still young. And this film, never fails to entertain us all to the joyous celebration of the year.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Arthur Christmas is very entertaining and touching as well. The story focused on the Fictional Character -<i> <b>SANTA CLAUS</b></i><b> </b>and his family members. One of which is his son, <b>ARTHUR. </b>The film will bring you to the Magical World of Santa Claus' High-tech Operation Hub that features thousands of elves as the workers. The said Factory for Gifts is located beneath the North Pole. They also have a Big Space Ship used for the delivery of the gifts worldwide. The story evolved on the premise that one child's gift has not been delivered. Due to Arthur's utmost and genuine concern to the child, he sets off to a wonderful journey to hand-in the single undelivered gift this season.</span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><i>The whole is film is just so optimistic and heart-warming</i>. It has the charms and wit. You'll be smiling the entire film. The strength of Arthur Christmas lies in its great story-telling techniques that are both appealing to youngsters and adults. It is easy to comprehend and the film has a good combination of humor and action. The progression of every scene is good and the climax of the film will also heighten up the emotional scheme this film delivers.</span></div>

Post-production was great but not as exceptional compared to other Animated Films. I also love the Characters of the film. Santa Claus is adorable and so is Arthur. I also love the addition of the elves as Santa Claus' Workers. Special Citation is given to the Lady Elf Packer. I love her role in the film. </span></div>

In the course of the investigations, deeper and gruesome stories of abduction and murders were discovered.

<b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span></b><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><b>The Road</b> is definitely the <b>CREEPIEST and MOST UNIQUE</b> Pinoy Horror Film of All-time but however not the scariest as compared with Feng Shui and Sukob.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">This would be the first time I'll be making a review for a Pinoy Film. And since, I am an avid of Horror Movies, it is good to make a review to Pinoy Horror Films that were somehow making a big improvement over the years.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">The Road's strength lies mainly on its Cinematography and Plot. I really commend how the <i>Director,</i> <b>Yam Laranas</b> and his <i>Swedish Composer/Cinematographer</i>, <b>Johan Soderqvist.</b> brought together the element of Mystery and Psychological thriller in a package wherein the whole film looks so silent yet very creepy at the same time.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">I really love the texture of the film. It is dark, gruesome, and scary since it brings you towards the plot of the film and its quite disturbing mood. It is intelligently crafted and technically done. I love how Yam Laranas played the scenes in the dark especially with the road itself. Although, some Slow Motion Scenes were somehow inappropriate but it is in some way effective in bringing a whole new kind of fear. <i>The fear of being alone in an abandoned road.</i></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><i><br /></i></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">The film is composed of three parts. I won't spoil the whole thing but every part has its mark of scare and disturbing scenes. Generally, the whole film in consistently creepy and dark. I am impressed with the film's technicalities and sound engineering. The progression of the scenes were also good. There are so many twists and turns especially in the ending. The plot is unpredictable <b><i>(which is good for a Horror Film)</i></b> but it is still solid towards the end. </span></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><i style="line-height: 24px;"><b>The Road</b> i</i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 24px;">s definitely distinctive due to its effective psychological approach to a Horror film. I think that only Yam Laranas could do such horror flicks. It may not boast as many jump-out scares like </span><i style="line-height: 24px;">Feng Shui's or Sukob's</i><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 24px;"> but the fear is skin-deep. However, I have a doubt that some or even majority of the Pinoy Moviegoers may not find The Road a good one since we are so used with the typical flick. On some point, Yam Laranas may have overlooked on some elements such as more ingredients for every Horror Scene. But whatever it is, I must admit that The Road's premise is so promising and it is artistically done compared with other Pinoy Horror films that put their focus on jump-put scare scenes and risk their Plot and Cinematography in the end. </span>It will give you goosebumps but it lacks genuine scares.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 24px;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 24px;">The movie just lack impact on some scenes. The Director can do more heavy horror scenes than that. Some of the scenes are definitively scary and disturbing though. Acting wise, actors and actresses were good. I really commend </span><b style="line-height: 24px;"><i>Carmina Villaroel </i></b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 24px;">for her great portrayal as well as</span><b style="line-height: 24px;"> Marvin Agustin. Alden Richards </b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 24px;">was a surprise actor in The Road. He may have few lines to throw in the film, but his character was essential. <b>Barbie Forteza</b> also did a great job in the film. Although, I find <b>Lexi's and Derrick's</b> performance as so-so thing. They lack emotion at some point. Nevertheless, all characters in the film were good.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 24px;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 24px;">At some point, I am very impressed and proud with this film. I just expected it to be more that what it used to be. At last, <b><i>GMA Films</i></b> is bringing the Pinoy Horror Genre onto a whole new level.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 24px;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 24px;">I still admire how <b>Yam Laranas</b> treated the film. It is far way better than <b>"SIGAW"</b> which is still a good horror flick for me. It is very distinctive.</span></span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Happy Feet Two returns audiences to the magnificent landscape of Antartica in superb 3D. Mumble, the Master of Tap, has a problem because of his tiny son, Erik, is choreo-phobic. Reluctant to dance, Erik runs away and encounters the mighty Sven - a penguin who can fly. Mumble has no hope of competing with this charismatic new role model. But things get worse when the world is shaken by powerful forces. Erik learns of his father's "guts and grit" as Mumble brings together the penguin nations and all manner of fabulous creatures-from tiny Krill to giant Elephant seals - to put things right --- (C) Warner Bros</span><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Happy Feet Two is fascinating but somehow quite a disappointment in respect with its predecessor. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Generally, Happy Feet Two wasn't bad at all. The movie still has its charms and entertainment factor but it was just not as relevant and rich compared with the first film. </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">I think what is the Major Problem of this film is that it failed to deliver a concrete story line and plot to the point that the whole film was sort of a mess. There are so many unnecessary add-ons to the film that made it look like a circus at some point.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">The Director and the Writer left the premise blank. It was supposed to focus on Erik, Mumble and Gloria's son, but it somehow went back to Mumble instead. There were no Major Conflict and Resolution of the film that is why it didn't appeal to the fans of the franchise.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">The film lacks depth and profundity with its revolving concept to fight the indifference of a penguin having the ability to tap using its feet instead of a beautiful voice. On the other hand, it lack coherent relationship with Mumble and his son Erik. The film must have its focus on the struggle of Erik to become accepted like what Mumble received in Happy Feet One.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">There were no progression in the sequences of the film. I even can't remember there was a highlight or climax. There were less adventures and thrills this time. The singing part were kinda less this time compared with the first one. At some point, the film is over-crowded, noisy and disorganized. It was somehow flat and draggy.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">On the other hand, Happy Feet Two boast of funny characters such as the Krills and the Seagulls. Animation was also pretty good. The movie is indeed a visual sparkle of effects and 3D technology. The 3D was good and definitely, it added on the film's overall performance.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">The singing parts were less but it was still good and well-crafted. Amidst its star-studded voices behind the characters, Happy Feet Two failed to make a worthy-sequel to the Academy-Award Winning Predecessor. </span></div>

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><b><br /></b></span><br />
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">In Time effectively introduced a whole new aspect of
Technological Advancement that does not need any robotics at all. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">I really loved the premise and the concept of the film. I
commend the Director and the Writer for bringing a whole new flavor of the
future by introducing Time as an essential element and substitute for money and
status symbol.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">This film may lack a sort of impact and may not be your
high-octane film but “In Time” delivers its thrill and excitement through its
creative, stylish and original plot that will glue you until the end. It may
not be as profound as other films, but this movie gives you a great ride of
saving your time by all means. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Upon watching this film, you’ll learn to give importance to
every minute of your time and be able to make the most out of it for your loved
ones.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">What this film lacks is its profundity in terms of
storytelling and plot scheme. The movie did not fully contain a good background
on the whole concept of TIME. The film must focus their premise on the Company
that started the whole thing. The plot lacks the exposition of such Company and
how they were able to steal time all over the world. The timekeepers were not
also given much emphasis on their roles in the film. With enough background and
in-depth approach, the film would be better as it should be in terms of
execution.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">But nevertheless, In Time still delivers its whole new
concept. Cinematography-wise, the film is good and smooth. Production may not
be as impressive as it should be, but the concept of different Time Zones make
this film distinct. You could really identify the status symbol of every
individual through the Time Zone she or he is in. And with this concept, the
film effectively delivered at an average note.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Justine and Amanda were also good in the film but not exceptional.
I see their Chemistry and charm together. I must say this one of the greatest
film of Justine and Amanda to date. Although Justine lacks emotion at some
point, he was able justify his role until the end. Amanda, on the other side,
is as beautiful as her portrayal in the movie.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">It is a good popcorn movie that will literally ratify the
saying that “TIME IS GOLD”.</span></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">If you were entertained and fascinated with Puss in Boots addition to the <b>Shrek Series</b>, you'll surely love more his character in this fantastic visual sparkle of charm and humor that even dog owners will surely love to watch.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><b>Puss in Boots </b>is not as outstanding as other Animated Films but it will surely entertain audiences of all ages.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">I really love cats and this movie made me even love cats more.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">What is charming and great about this movie is that it focuses on the history and journey of Puss in Boots before he met Shrek. The movie started with the premise on how Puss got his boots and even the history of his childhood. Puss' childhood became colorful and adventurous when he met Humpty Dumpty. <i>Puss and Humpty</i> were one of the adopted or orpahns of a very good lady, <b>Imelda</b>, which later became their foster mother.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Puss and Humpty's friendship grew stronger as they both fulfill their dreams of finding the magic beans that will lead them to the Castle above the skies where they could find the <b>Golden Goose</b> that poops gold. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">But their friendship and quest was tested with Trust on a night the will changed their lives forever. Years later, Puss in Boots and Humpty Dumpty met again. This time, with the help of Kitty. They worked altogether to get the <b>Magic Beans</b> to the wicked couple J<b>ACK AND JILL.</b></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">The story is very visually appealing and the plot is good. The premise of the movie is clear. It gave a detailed history of how Puss in Boots became a legend. I love how the director played with storyline as it involved Famous Fairy tale and Fictional Characters such as <b><i>HUMPTY DUMPTY, JACK AND THE BEANSTALK, JACK AND JILL, THE GOLDEN GOOSE</i></b> and many more.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">And of course, there are so many cats in this film that made the story cute and very appealing to cat lovers and even audiences of all ages. You'll be mesmerized with the Spanish-inspired accent and aura of Puss. There are many exciting and fascinating moments to watch out for this film. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><i><br /></i></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">Of course, the star-studded voices behind the characters made it even more fabulous. I couldn't think of any other Hollywood Actor other than <b>Antonio Banderas</b> that could fit the voice behind the legendary Puss in Boots. <b>Salma Hayek</b> was also as beautiful as her voice behind Kitty, the love interest of Puss in the film. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">What I love most about Puss in Boots is its <b>impressive use of the 3D technology. </b>I am very much pleased on how the Technical Team of the film maximized the technology. <b>Actually, Puss in Boots is full-length 3D film. </b>The 3D stuff is not only on selected scenes but almost all part of the movie. It feels like you are inside the movie. I really think it is one of the Animated Films that is really worth-watching with those three-dimensional glasses. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">It's solid entertainment from start to finish, with enough adventurous moments to delight most viewers are just enough reasons why you should watch this film.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Georgia, 'Times New Roman', serif;">I must say, <b>PUSS IN BOOTS 3D</b> is still one of the most charming Animated film of all time and one of the films that has the best use of the 3D technology.</span></div>

<div style="line-height: 16px; text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 16px;">I never loved Paranormal Activity films which introduced the <b><i>"found footage"</i></b> technique with mystery and horror in it. Well, I actually find it stupid at first. The First movie was the trendsetter but a little bit boring. The second one was by far the worst and still boring. But the third one changed my outlook on the film outfit.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 16px;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 16px;"><b>Paranormal Activity 3 </b>is the best among the 3 and the scariest as well.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 16px;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 16px;">Despite my disappointments from the first two films, I still gave the 3rd one a chance. And yes, the movie did not fail me. It gave a series and random of chills, spine-tingling moments and jump-out scares. It still has those boring moments but it was balanced with enough scares that would make this film at par with the other two.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 16px;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 16px;">Essentially, Paranormal Activity 3 is the prequel among the two. But I must say, its a worthy prequel and it really gave concrete explanation and answer on how the Activity began. Truly indeed, the tag line<b><i> "It runs with the family"</i></b> narrated the mystery of the franchise.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 16px;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 16px;">I really commend the Writer and the Director for bringing the 3rd Outfit onto a new level of Fear and Suspense as it focuses on children this time. I won't spoil the whole plot of the film but the ending and the connection of all these events are indeed shocking.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 16px;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 16px;">I loved the kids in the film. The characters are also adorable and it is well-acted. </span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 16px;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 16px;">The phasing of the whole film is precise and not draggy compared with the two. The film progresses from silent to a high-tension climax that will really scare the sh** out of hardened audiences.</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 16px;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: 16px;">I highly recommend this film to everyone except light-hearted audiences. For fans, you'll be pleased with this one and for first-timer, you'll put this film as an edge-of-your-seat treat that is perfect for this Halloween Season. </span></span></div>

But when Cal learns that his wife, <b>Emily</b> <i>(Julianne Moore</i>), has cheated on him and wants a divorce, his "perfect" life quickly unravels. Worse, in today's single world, Cal, who hasn't dated in decades, stands out as the epitome of un-smooth. Now spending his free evenings sulking alone at a local bar, the hapless Cal is taken on as wingman and protégé to handsome, thirty something player <b>Jacob Palmer</b> (<i>Ryan Gosling</i>). -- (C) Warner Bros<br /><br /><br /><b>Genre:</b> Drama, Romance, Comedy<br /><b>Directed By</b>: Glenn Ficarra and John Requa<br /><b>Written By:</b> Dan Fogelman<br /><br /><br /><b>Characters:</b><br /><br /><b>Steve Carell </b>as Cal Weaver<br /><b>Julianne Moore</b> as Emily, Emily Weaver<br /><b>Ryan Gosling</b> as Jacob, Jacob Palmer<br /><b>Emma Stone</b> as Hannah<br /><b>Jonah Bobo</b> as Robbie<br /><b>John Carroll Lynch </b>as Bernie<div><b>Kevin Bacon</b> as David<br /><br /><b>REVIEW:</b><br /><br /><i>Crazy, Stupid, Love</i> is one the rarest Hollywood Romantic Comedy film that is sensible, melodramatic and funny.<br /><br />I enjoyed watching the film as it tackles different kinds and situations about<b> LOVE</b>. Its not the typical Romantic films about couples. It goes into the context of Marriage and Mature Love. The film may actually work as a family drama as it focuses on the trials that Cal and Emily Weaver is experiencing as a couple and their relationship towards each other after Cal discovered that Emily was cheating on her.<br /><br />The story progresses as <b>Cal met Jacob</b> (who became his best pal. Jacob played a vital role in Cal's life by teaching him to reinvent himself and find his lost manhood. The story of twist and turns makes Crazy, Stupid, Love a perfect ride of fun, love, and drama.<br /><br />The plot at first might be quite sloppy but as the story progresses, it gets more interesting and worth-watching.<br /><br />I love how the Director and Writer played with the script. Its not too cliche and fairy-tale type. It is actually more of realism where everyone could somehow relate. From marriage, to average love, to flings and even puppy love.<br /><br />I loved the Characters of the story. They were great in their own terms. The casts is undeniably talented. Both Julianne Moore and Emma Stone are stunning. Steve Carell did great to his portrayal as a father who wanted to fight for his failing marriage. Ryan Gosling's presence added up a spicy flavor to the film with his Brad Pitt-inspired aura.<br /><br />Overall, Crazy, Stupid, Love is actually a wholesome film about fighting for the one you love against all odds. The film teaches us to stand up for the persons we loved. They maybe our family, our friends and even our special someone.<br /><br />It is a modern adult story that is somehow appealing to youngsters. Just right formula to be <b>One of Hollywood's Most Sensible Romantic Comedy Film.</b><br /><br />I totally recommend this film to everyone.<br /><br /><span><br />RATINGS</span><b><span>:</span> 4 STARS</b><br /></div>Michael Andrew Carbonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03798515064968265125noreply@blogger.com0
