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(a...

As for the story?  It needs work.  Ear...

I chanced upon this movie because dad was watching this.  He just came from breakfast with friends and he was resting a bit.  He was quite impressed with "Loki" and we both wondered if this was shown in the Philippines.  "Where were we when this was shown?" We were moved as the story progressed, but found a lot of things off and odd.  There were many great and wonderful things that Mr. ...
