There were many reasons why we made sure we were going to watch this movie besides GERARD BUTLER being my second biggest multifaceted very harmless crush, The Navy.  

My dad retired from service twenty-five years ago as a Flag Officer, so among the branches of service, The Navy is closest to our hearts.

I was incredulous about certain scenes, like how easy the air and land crew were able to enter enemy territory, but I love the movie anyway.

The movie was fair to both sides, and I love the conversation of the two Captains (MICHAEL NYQVIST and Butler), and there were a lot of nail biting scenes that made me squeeze the hands of my folks.

COMMON, LINDA CARDELLINI, and GARY OLDMAN gave stellar performances, but we shouldn't belittle the performances of the following:

ALEXANDER DIACHENKO(Russian President Zakarin);

TOBY STEPHENS, ZANE HOLTZ, GABRIEL CHAVARRIA, and RYAN MCPARTLIN (The Navy Seals/Search and Rescue Team);

and

CARTER MCINTYRE, the USS Arkansas Executive Officer

Of course, MIKHAIL GOREVOY was a very good villain.

Needless to say, this is a team effort.  Even the ones not mentioned did their jobs well.

It is definitely not a waste of time watching this movie. Even if there are very unbelievable scenes, there many scenes where we were awestricken.  

Kudos to everyone involved in this film.

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 ce...

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(a...

When The Love Is Gone (Graded A by the Film Ratings Board) R-13 Romance/Drama- 2013

Official Trailer When I heard Alice Dixson utter the classic infamous line, "Nandiyan ba ang asawa ko, na asawa mo, na asawa ng buong bayan?" in the trailer of WHEN THE LOVE HAS GONE,  I said to myself, "Wait, I've heard that line before!" Or something to that effect.  I was not wrong.  Something similar to those lines were uttered by Laurice Guillen as Delza in NAGALIT ANG BUWAN SA HABA NG GABI (click to read the story written and directed by Danny L. Zialcita...Since the blogger doesn't know the name of the actor who played Antonio Almeda aka UP Boy, I'll tell you that his name is Tommy Alvarado)---more below Alice Dixson, Gabby Concepcion, Cristine Reyes, Andi Eigenmann and Jake Cuenca Source Except for the very long title(in terms of syllables), the movie this one was based on, is very beautiful.  When Janice de Belen played the role of Jenny, I felt her pain...her agony. All of the members of cast f...
