Avengers: ENDGAME (2019) Just feelings, no spoilers

Image
Greenbelt 3 Ate Carol and I watched the movie along with the Colegio San Agustin Class(Makati) of 1994 courtesy of her niece, Larissa. 3 hours and 1 minute long Directed by Anthony Russo and Joe Russo   Screenplay by Christopher Markus and Stephen McFeely  Based on The Avengers by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby  Caveat:  If you don't want spoilers, no worries, there aren't any here. Also, I suggest that you don't go to the Wikipedia Page. Dad didn't understand some scenes(hard of hearing due to old age and medicine) so he looked for spoilers(after the fact).  He found them on the Wikipedia page.  No worries, I won't put the link here.  If you do want spoilers, then this is not the blog entry for you. :-) This is just a bunch of feelings, and nothing more.

Thor Ragnarok (2017) PG (not really a review)

Image
Bonifacio High Street Cinemas, Central Square, BGC Imprisoned on the other side of the universe, the mighty Thor finds himself in a deadly gladiatorial contest that pits him against the Hulk, his former ally and fellow Avenger. Thor's quest for survival leads him in a race against time to prevent the all-powerful Hela from destroying his home world and the Asgardian civilization.- WWW In Thor 2, it was implied or established that Thor, Loki and Odin were not really gods, but a highly advanced species who likened to gods.  In Thor Ragnarok they are back to being Norse gods. This movie made all of us happy.  It has two strings of after credits teasers and the script was well-written, with the best line coming from a Make-A-Wish-Kid . We had lots of laughs(including the part where they seemingly promoted to the Filipino audience the Vice Ganda-Pia Wurtzbach-Daniel Padilla Christmas movie---LOL---I'm sure most of the moviegoers at the Bonifacio High ...

Image
Twitter Paranormal researcher Abby Yates (Melissa McCarthy) and physicist Erin Gilbert are trying to prove that ghosts exist in modern society. When strange apparitions appear in Manhattan, Gilbert and Yates turn to engineer Jillian Holtzmann for help. Also joining the team is Patty Tolan, a lifelong New Yorker who knows the city inside and out. Armed with proton packs and plenty of attitude, the four women prepare for an epic battle as more than 1,000 mischievous ghouls descend on Times Square. Initial release: July 14, 2016 (Brazil)- WWW Director: Paul Feig Executive producer: Dan Aykroyd Producers: Ivan Reitman, Amy Pascal If not for my skeptical friend, Kristen, who ended up loving this film, I wouldn't have watched this.  Some naysayers said "It ruined our childhood!"(I say they are exaggerating) and some other words that are not worthy publishing.  It's hard to please my friend, so when she wrote a review/reaction paper about this movie, it go...

Blackhat (2015) A Michael Mann film

Image
Directors Club Cinema 3  SM City BF Parañaque The trailer that I was not able to see Blackhat is another one of those films that we opted to watch without knowing what to expect, except that it was a security cracker film and it starred Chris Hemsworth.  We never saw any trailer and we weren't able to read press releases too.   I guess it's better that way.  You start with a blank slate and no one's opinion would make you jaded regarding that film.   Chris Hemsworth doesn't appear until sometime that you may wonder if you, entered the right cinema or not so w hen Wang Leehom ,    the Asian-American singer who plays Chen Dawai, appeared, he was sort of the saving grace of the first part of the film.  It is believed that singers are better actors because they don't only memorize their lines, they internalize and they understand each word or phrase to be more effective than others so that they could be who they are portraying a...

Rush (2013)

Image
http://www.seesawaustin.com/ Cast I watched this movie a total of three times. I felt like I was a part of  their  story too...not just a member of the audience, but it seemed like I was part of their lives. The story was fair to both sides and it was great to  meet  the very philosophical Lauda, his wife Marlene, the people around them, the charismatic (and problematic) James Hunt and the people around him.   Even if James Hunt and Niki Lauda were rivals, there was some kind of verve that connected them to each other and they both knew that very well.  They truly respected each other. Oh, and I agree with the people who have seen this film.  This is Ron Howard's best directorial job ever. Kudos to the writers and the rest of the crew.  Kudos to the cast, most especially to Daniel Brühl, Chris Hemsworth, Olivia Wilde and Alexandra Maria Lara. Congratulations to everyone involved in this film. RUSH: History vs. Hollywood The...

THOR The Dark World (2013)

Image
EXPERIENCING THOR: THE DARK WORLD at the SM MALL OF ASIA Enjoy THOR The Dark World in four different ways Sequels, more often than not, are overshadowed by the prequel.  This is not the case with THOR The Dark World . When my almost seven-year-old nephew and I talked about this, I told him the reason why it is better than the first one is because it was carefully weaved and well-planned.  The story had some direction and is really interwoven with the other Marvel stories like Iron Man, Captain America, The Avengers, Incredible Hulk and the rest of the Earth's Mightiest Heroes. ✪ ✪ ✪ ✪ ✪ Odin in this movie told Loki that though they are far superior than mortals or creatures of other realms, they are NOT gods. They are born, they live and die like humans do.  Loki replied, "Give or take five thousand years..."  I think  this is in response to what Captain America said, "There's only one God, ma'am, and I'm prett...
