Maleficent

Image
I watched this with my sisters, as I would with any Disney movie.  If you think about the whole concept of Maleficent, you wouldn’t actually think it’d be appropriate for young kids but this, I recommend! It’s very wholesome. Very pure. And it teaches a lot of lessons especially to kids.  Angelina Jolie. I mean. I couldn’t imagine this role being portrayed by someone else. Oh! Scarlett, maybe? But that’s not the point. She’s just so perfect for the role. This woman is on fire, man.  Elle Fanning. Fanning sisters, am I right?! So gorgeous! Her skin is undeniably flawless! But! Let me just say that in general, Princess Aurora is actually below my favorites list. I just don’t connect with her. I mean, the whole point of her OG fairy tale story is around someone else because she was basically just asleep but the Aurora in this movie gave the character more body and better image I guess.  Okay so totally not in the movie but can I just say that my bestfriend got engaged! ...

It means no worries! I miss Disneyland/Disneysea. I like how they did the whole thing! Yup! Even the predictability of it. It’s a good movie for kids and alike. I watched with my sisters as usual and yeah we all enjoyed it, I think. Beyonce though! The role fits her soo well! I always thought of Nala as a very neutral character and yeah it works. The movie gets slow at some point, I feel like. But I guess the animated version has that phase sometimes too so yeah. Lion King is not on my favorite Disney story list but it’s always nice to see them all come alive. I am just so excited for the upcoming Disney movies this year. We still have Maleficent and Frozen on our list. And! Little Mermaid and Mulan in the future! Goodness, Mulan though! I think I’ll cry or something.  That’s all! If you’re a Disney kid like us/me, don’t miss the magic of watching it on the big screen! Ciao! Me likey. I must say though! We should have watched the movie on a later date or probably very late at night...

My Big Furry Monster

Shiki! I am actually inspired to do this post because I recently saw Tinker Bell's newest sequel, The Legend of the Neverbeast (twice). I was really touched by the movie. I think they should make a movie featuring each one of the pixies. Tink, check! Zarina, check! Fawn, check! You know what I mean? I just love the whole idea of Pixie Hollow.  I asked mom to send me a picture of Shiki and out of the 20 plus photos that she sent, this is probably the most decent. Mom said Shiks doesn't like the camera much. Just like how Gruff avoided Fawn at first. Speaking of Shiki. I think he's kinda like Gruff in a lot of ways. I do think that he's protecting us in his own mysterious ways. Most of my family members don't get it because he's always barking and always loud but for whatever it is, who knows? Maybe he's actually trying to protect us. I totally get them though. So when I'm home and he would do that, I would instantly go down to his place and calm him down....

Frozen is Lurve

Have you guys seen the movie Frozen? I highly recommend you watch it! It's really good!! I mean, if I would describe my life in one movie, this would be it. I'm nowhere queen or any of that stuff but you know I think it resembles my life at some point. If you haven't seen it yet, it's something you would appreciate watching with your sister/s or sibling/s for that matter. Or like your daughters. Because finally! It teaches young girls that they should be aware that before anyone, family comes first. This is why I liked the movie Brave as well. I liked it because it's about family. And not about Princes. Don't get me wrong though because I love princes as well but they're just not my favorite.  I really liked Anna. She's way too gullible but her personality is actually like my sister Mika. Although Anna is not someone I associate myself with a lot. I know I play the Elsa in my family but you know, I think I'm not as cold as her at...

Girl, Boy, Bakla, Tomboy | Movie Review

Image
So on its first showing day, my family decided it's a good idea to watch it. Well not. Anyways. I didn't really like the movie. I guess I was expecting a little bit more from it. Like, it's quite nice for a good laugh but you know, very predictable! I guess it would have been nicer if there were other artists that played the role of the other characters but I guess that would be pointless since clearly, they thought of the concept very well. And that they clealy wanted one artist (just one artist) to do all four.  So the story is that they are quadruplets and that they were separated by birth by the evil grandmother (father side). Then two of them were brought to the United States and then two of them stayed with the mother and stayed in the province. Then girl, boy, bakla (gay), and tomboy it is. Surprising yeah? LOL. Okay so after several years, the boy needed to have a liver transplant and for some reason, they can't find a compatible donor so they...

The Conjuring 2013. Is it REALLY?

Image
Okay so before anything else, I just want to say that anything I'm about to say is mildly affected by the fact that I watched this movie half-guilty because I skipped my study schedule for the nth time already so that probably affected my capability to absorb the essence of the story. Or is there any? Okay so the story (according to me) is like this. There's a family who moved into a house in Rhode Island and then they were happy and stuff, right? On the very first day though, they noticed that their dog refused to enter the house. You know how they say that dogs can feel spirits, right? Yeah. She was barking and acting weird and stuff. And then the girls played hide and seek and then since they don't know the whereabouts of that house yet, they somehow managed to knock something and then the father found out that it's a way down to a cellar. He went down and since it was kind of night time already, he wasn't able to see everything and said he'll be back...

Safe Haven Troubles

Image
I was kind of hesitant to watch Safe Haven because I was thinking, I'm not really ready for heavy drama or something because I'm keener in watching travel related films as of the moment and this I downloaded (illegally) because I've heard quite a lot of good things about it. Michelle Phan's review is one. I also read reviews online and even though I was not ready for a heavy film, I watched it anyways. Just to get over it. There were quite a lot of bad reviews saying it's a bad movie with bad actors and stuff but actually, I kind of liked it. Okay let's just put it out there! For some reason, I always see something good in a movie or like everything but whatever. Except probably the movie When in Rome. Okay, maybe the Rome part was okay. I don't think I'm spoiling the movie because it's been out for a while now so here it goes. The movie started like it's some sort of a horror story which confused me a little bit. I didn...

Dear Juliet

Image
I watched Letters to Juliet awhile ago because not so long ago, I've searched for movies set in Europe and this is one of the recommendations. Totally out of the topic (as always) but I've watched Bourne Legacy, LOL, Under the Tuscan Sun, Midnight in Paris, When in Rome, 2 Days in Paris, Monte Carlo, and Leters to Juliet from that recommendation thingy. I may have missed one or two but it doesn't matter. This particular movie is kind of  a little bit cheesy for me but considering that I searched to kind of see Europe, this one's nice. As a side note, I'd like to work as one of Juliet's secretaries. I think I would have fun writing letters to people. I just like the whole idea of it but I'm not really sure whether or not I'm Juliet enough to write them back or something but who cares? I figured I like writing.  Also! I don't believe the Sophie and the guy's love because come on! I mean, seriously? It all happened too soon. Like, 3 d...

Dr. Ted Grey is LOVE

If all PATHOLOGISTS look like this, GURL! Haha so just a little back story, I think I was first year in college when this movie came out and we were at the mall, right? I saw the showing date and then we intended to watch it (of course) and then we couldn't make it on the first day so we just decided to come back the other day but then when we returned, they're not showing it na. WHUT? Anyways, I illegally downloaded the movie and watched it just now and what can I say? Kind of weird for a game, you know. Basically they have to kill people but not just to kill! They have to do it in such a way that no one would know how exactly they did it. It's sort of a game that them resident pathologists play. And I'm kind of proud that I got one out of so many. I'm not PATHO (yet, perhaps). So yeah. I wouldn't go into detail but I am very impressed with the ending.  I actually witnessed doctors play games probably twice. Not this kind of games where they kill people...

Hers and Mine.

Like I said, I was catching up with movies and this time, I'm gonna review Bourne Identity. Well not really review though. Just gonna say something about it and what my opinions on it are and stuff like that. Actually, I watched When in Rome before Bourne but it was so kinda walang kwenta kaya 'wag nalang. Haha. This one is like an old film na. Released 2002 pa. Pero anyways.  So it is about Jason Bourne, an assassin who lost his memory. He was found floating by some fishermen sort of. The guy who was cutting his body sort of found out that he got shot and yeah good thing there's someone in the boat who knows how to remove it from his body and all that stuff. And then the interesting part was there was a tiny laser kind of bullet found in his hip and when the doctor/that someone flashed it on the wall, it revealed his bank number. Okay so fast forward. The cops were everywhere looking for him and he don't know why. He still got the skills though. Fighting ...
