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

I originally wrote this 30 August 2012, but I updated it on 14 June 2019.  I updated it more on 18 June 2019. From imdb Written and Directed by CHRIS MARTINEZ as inspired by the music of The APO Hiking Society This is the promotional poster for Unitel and Studio 5's I Do Bidoo Bidoo starring Sam Concepcion, Tippy Dos Santos, Eugene Domingo, Gary V., Ogie Alcasid, Zsa Zsa Padilla The first time I've seen this almost seven years ago I was deeply impressed because even if the movie is a musical comedy, the flow of the story was...is almost seamless.  The songs of course were very familiar, but I was careful not to sing in the theatre.  I am still traumatised (I should be over this, I know, but not until I find out if the aggrieved party has forgiven me) because I thought I wasn't too audible I sang with someone doing a solo number.  She felt more than slighted.  In Filipino I could say nabastos ko siya .  Google translates it to I made h...

Finally, I was able to watch KUYA WES this March.  I wasn't able to watch this last August, because of one reason or another, but the important thing is that I have seen this now, during my birth month. My birthDAY is significant in this movie.  It was the day that  Kuya Wes  fell in love 24/7 a day.  In the most ...

OGIE ALCASID'S 30th Anniversary Concert If I am not mistaken I learned about this concert around July, but we had lots of activities.  I could have ordered the tickets online, but based on experience, since it's my account, the senior discount would be waived.  It was a matter of principle.  When we got to SM Makati to purchase the tickets the best tickets we could get was Patron A.  Oops.  Well, we still had good seats, and we listened to the lady who suggested that we should get the ones near the aisle because it would be more convenient for my mom. 🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶 My mom and I were psyched to go to this concert together because mom was one of the first persons who bought Ogie's first single when he was just  a cohost of Eat Bulaga, which was still showing at RPN 9 at Broadcast City then.  Unfortunately, due to the infection of her allergies and aching feet she couldn't join me, so we  prayed...oh yes we did...after some reflection, we...

Reading about Heart Evangelista's award winning acting in the Indie Film called "Ay Ayeng" made me sigh.  Shucks.  Why haven't I heard about this movie?  It bagged most of the awards so I guess it's a great film. Due to recent events, before reading about the Indie Film, I was wondering about her.  Heart's a great actress. Yes, she's an heiress and all, but she's in a class of her own.  Just as I was thinking about her, she bagged the best actress trophy and the much coveted role as Sharon Cuneta's daughter in Mano Po 6: My Mother. I guess I shouldn't "worry" about her then. ;-) The Movies I did get to see I watched this movie four times. Laugh trip!  Although there were unnecessary comments, I overlooked them because there were many, many times that the audience laughed...as in roared with laughter...they even clapped and loved every moment of it. Kudos to the cast and crew! Eugene, you deserve to have ...
