Non-Stop (2014) R-13

-


When we entered the cinema after mom bought her dress for tonight's event(my dad's classmate's 80th birthday at the Marriott), I had no idea what it was about.  As a person born with itchy feet(I love to travel), if I had known that this was a movie about the prevention of hijacking or the like, I wouldn't have watched it.  I've seen enough flicks to traumatize me. 

 For one reason or another, I was not able to read any advertisement about this and I was not given the chance to see the trailer. Sigh.  Anyways, I just sat back, relaxed, and tried to enjoy the film.

 Anyways, if you have read my so-called reviews or non-reviews, you would know I would not be writing about this if I totally hated it.  Yes, even if I believe that Liam Neeson is sort typecast for this type of roles,  I did like this film and even enjoyed it.  Yes, you read it right.  I enjoyed it. 

 I liked little Becca(McColgan) best.  I don't know how old she was supposed to be, but I'm guessing she was supposed to be seven, the way Bill Marks(Neeson) talked to her.  In real life, she's twelve going on thirteen, but I don't think she portrayed her real age.

 I was annoyed with Jen Summers(Moore) at first, but later on, I understood her.

 There were many unnecessary scenes, but it was pretty exciting too.  I was only able to guess the culprit, rather, the accomplice, when... Anyways, if you want spoilers, here are some links:

Barbie and Her "Kens" (A Dollywood Title) #TeamYuan #KenBie My bubble was burst when the last scene after the credits was shown.  JEYA (Jai, Ethan, Yuan and Andoy) just woke up from a heavy night and they were wondering what happened then in big bold letters this was shown on the TV screen:  Ano nga ba? SOON! Ngarks. I was already very happy that BARBIE (Forteza as Billie Bendiola) and KEN (Chan as Yuan Lee or Lee Yuan) ended up together.  I even shouted it out via FB(viewed by Friends of Friends) then as I was enjoying the after credits scenes, the very last one was that messy pool scene. Everything was just a dream! Come on! I know it's fiction, but to play with our emotions like that?  That is such BS. If I only knew that they'd do that, I would've finished Father Rio's send off party.  :-p  It's different when people wake up from a nightmare, but my goolai.  Why did they have to make it a dream?  If they want Barbie(at least h

How do I describe this movie without giving spoilers?  Hmm.  Let me think.  Ah, I think I know how.  Directed by Gino M. Santos Written by Jeff Stelton and Keiko Aquino Loosely based on or inspired by the  Wattpad   sensation by  youramnesiagirl  of the same title, is a story of finding your self worth and about living.  It's also about relationships not of the romantic kind and about responsibility.  This movie is NOT all about sex.  There's more to it than that .  It also doesn't stereotype med reps and doctors. Things like these  happen whatever profession or non-profession you are in, and even if there are people like that  in real life, we must believe that there are more people who live life with integrity(listen to Carmi Martin's lines somewhere in the movie), so please don't be scared to watch this. This movie is about loving, losing, sacrificing, being selfless et cetera, et cetera .  It's about many things, and sex is just a part

Watching Again a favourite movie during my High School Years: BAGETS(1984) and its sequel BAGETS 2(1984)

Source JC Bonnin, William Martinez, Raymond Lauchengco, Aga Muhlach and Herbert Bautista Directed by Maryo J. Delos Reyes Written by Jake Tordesillas Experiencing the forbidden. Experiencing rejection. Hating your parents. Hating the world around you. Discovering what's hot. Discovering what's cool. Discovering your first true love. Discovering who you are. Growing up can be such a wild time. But not when you've got the best guys to hang out with. Five chaste young men immerse themselves in the superficialities and superfluity of adolescence over the course of their last year in high school. But as they make their gradual transition from boyhood to manhood, they realize it is their formidable bond that stands as the real deal. Starring a generation that gave rise to a new youth culture.-imdb My mind seems to be playing tricks on me.  I just can't believe that these two movies were shown the same year, but if that is the case, then 1984 was filled wi
