I am NOT a critic. I'm merely an observer. (Books, movies, plays, musicals etc.)

From ASAP's FB page as posted on Loisa Andalio's wall (she looks like a young Sheryl Cruz and Lovi Poe combined #CongratulationsLoisa #Loisa18 #SuccessfulConcert "Talented Darling ng Parañaque" #PBBAllin2014 #3G2013 #NKNK2015 #HatetoadmititbutnowIamafan #LovedherasGoldie Before anything else, I'm NOT a basher.  I believe in this young lady's talents in acting, singing, dancing and modelling (TV ads/Print Ads etc.) , but watching this concert was sort of a last minute thing and something we did not imagine to do. We were going somewhere somewhat near Greenhills so dad made me search plays, concerts or whatever there was or wherever. My first choice was not my dad's cup of tea and he felt that the tickets were so expensive.  My second choice did not have a play in season.  My third option, not really a choice, was too wild for us, et cetera, et cetera . "Please check Music Museum..." So I did.   "Loisa Andalio

But she soon realizes that Kevin's mom, Viola (Jane Fonda), is not quite thrilled to have a new family member.

A new baby's arrival impacts a family, told from the point of view of a delightfully unreliable narrator -- a wildly imaginative 7-year-old named Tim. The most unusual Boss Baby (Alec Baldwin) arrives at Tim's home in a taxi, wearing a suit and carrying a briefcase. The instant sibling rivalry must soon be put aside when Tim discovers that Boss Baby is actually a spy on a secret mission, and only he can help thwart a dastardly plot that involves an epic battle between puppies and babies.- imdb Director's Club at Conrad Manila's S Maison The Boss Baby is a fun movie.  We have planned to watch this since last March after reading that it beat Beauty and The Beast at the box office tills. I prefer B & t B over TBB.  Just saying... 👮👮👮👮👮 Ted and Janice prepared Tim for "Boss Baby" or Ted Jr. or Teddy, but Tim said he is enough(Mom Janice was very much pregnant at that time---ergo, Teddy was born and did not really arrive in a taxi

THE CASE FOR CHRIST :   BASED ON THE TRUE STORY OF AN AWARD-WINNING JOURNALIST WHO,  WORKING TO DISPROVE THE NEWFOUND CHRISTIAN FAITH OF HIS WIFE, BEGINS CHASING DOWN THE BIGGEST STORY OF ALL TIME WITH UNEXPECTED, LIFE-ALTERING RESULTS. (FROM THE OFFICIAL WEBSITE) Lee Strobel is a person I have admired since I was very young. Lee Patrick Strobel is one of the best investigative journalists of all time. He is a loving husband and father because he promised he would love his family no matter what, unlike his very "neglectful" father. 1980 Lee Strobel only believes the "facts" and he does not believe in a higher power.  He, "in fact", is an atheist.  When his wife "changed" and started believing in God, the great researcher with a great mind, as challenged by a colleague, thought it best to disprove the Almighty's existence. The movie based on his life is well written, well acted and well directed.  It is not only a conversion s

Lifelong buddies Willie (Morgan Freeman), Joe (Michael Caine) and Albert (Alan Arkin) decide to buck retirement and step off the straight-and-narrow when their pension funds become a corporate casualty. Desperate to pay the bills and come through for their loved ones, the three men risk it all by embarking on a daring adventure to knock off the very bank that absconded with their money.-WWW Release date: April 7, 2017 (USA) Director: Zach Braff Based on: Going in Style; Written and Directed for the Silver Screen by Martin Brest (1979) Based on the original story of Edward Cannon Music composed by: Rob Simonsen Cinematography: Rodney Charters 1979 There was something vaguely familiar about this movie, but I thought to myself maybe it just had the same theme or something.  Later, I checked it out and found out it was based on a George Burns et al movie of 1979. Even if this was(is) a remake or a re-imagining or something, it became an entirely new movie that's act

Whenever I can't be home on time or whatever, I go to this website to watch the replays:  http://www.pinoytvshows.org ENCANTADIA (2016) Image from PEP.PH #requel (Retelling and a sequel) ENCANTADIA PHOTOGRAPHS 2005/2016 ENCATADIA PAG-IBIG HANGGANG WAKAS (2006) ETHERIA This fantaseries jumpstarts my evening.  Even if it is a fantaseries, their problems about family and other relationships are real.  I love the costumes and the special effects.  There are a few "Why did that have to happen?", but most of the time, everything's just so exciting.  I know this is going to end soon.  I thought I wouldn't like this re-imagining of the series because I loved the original, but I am glad that I was wrong.  I have "separation anxiety" with this series(hehehehe) because it is going to break my weeknight habit. I am grateful that "they" brought back Hagorn, as played by one of my favorite actors, Mr. John Arcilla, before the series would bid
