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

Crime and other evils still exist, but the innate goodness in man prevails. The ending wasn't as wild as I imagined it to be because among all Wildflower episodes, nothing beats the helicopter scene where Maja Salvador kept on convincing herself that she is NOT Maja, but Lily Cruz and she successfully made the scene more beautiful than her gorgeous face. At any rate, they were successful in making the whole week not so predictable.  The dialogues were still exaggerated, but like what they said, it was on purpose, and it works. On the Live FB feed, thousands of people watched it along with the cast. Did I like the ending? I like and love it.  It's like a quieting song and so what if the other scenes were anticlimactic?   At least we didn't get heart attacks or something. I like that Emilia had a redeeming factor and Julio got his just deserts. Kudos to EVERYONE involved in this project. All the best to you all!   #Barcelo...

Naka move on na po ako...natuwa lang ako sa eksena na ito. This blog entry might have a few spoilers, but I'll try my very best to have none, unless I couldn't help it. How do I start this entry then? Maybe I'll start with what I like best and probably you would consider this a spoiler:  Fidel(JC Santos) was able to gain confidence because his roommate and his org mates believed in him.  When people have potential, we should not bring them down and we shouldn't laugh at their imperfections.  Instead, we should encourage them to be the best of what they could be.  Sometimes that's all people need.  A pat on the back...a bit of a push...they don't need jeerers and hecklers who tantamount to being bullies. I also like the ending.  It proves that EVERY scene is important. There is integration and every character or at least every main character learned a thing or two leading them to be wiser and more mature.  In the middle of the sto...

When Ignacio de Loyola was cancelled at a certain theatre,  the lady I have spoken with said I was late by one day.  If I had inquired about it then, they wouldn't have cancelled the showing because they believe in and value the "power of one " so I hope they won't stop the reshowing of APOCALYPSE CHILD . #apocalypsechild #sidlucero #francisfordcoppola #anaabadsantos #baler #surfing Sid Lucero talks about being ‘bastos,’ exposed in new film 10 Things You Need to Know Before Seeing ‘Doctor Strange’  ( source ) ( source ) These two films are being shown side-by-side.  The former is shown at one theatre alternating with the latter, while the latter is being is shown at all the remaining theatres of the cineplexes. Is that fair? You can't blame the owners of the cineplexes.  They go where the money is, and obviously, they think Dr. Strange will "bring home the bacon". The former is a drama about a man who was made to believ...

Four "Free" Tickets from E-Plus (in actuality, PhP3.00 each) Directed by: Olivia Lamasan W ritten by:Olivia Lamasan and Carmi Raymundo Thank goodness I finally was able to watch this film.  I did not expect much because thought it was just going to be "the same old story" or probably it was going to be too commercial, but after being so impressed with these two young actors in SHE'S DATING THE GANGSTER , CRAZY BEAUTIFUL YOU  and the update of PANGAKO SA 'YO, even if I am not a die hard fan, I told myself I have to watch this. I was intending to watch this with Joy, but I was still on the road around the time she said she was going to watch this, then we became so busy and when we had time to watch movies, dad wanted to prioritise his provincial hero, Hermano Puli and the update of The Magnificent Seven. The Pentatonix Concert's tickets were purchased much earlier(and I didn't even realise it was a Saturday) so watching this film ...
