Cinematic Reviews by ^tboupt^

At first I thought it was an animation kasi Alienate People ba naman. And I’m also quite surprised Kirsten Dunst was one of the characters. Kasi nakikita ko lang si Kirsten sa Spiderman e hehehhe. I haven’t heard about this movie last 2008 kaya feeling ko, it’s sort of a indie? Pero parang hindi naman.I dunno.

Simon Pegg was from Run Fatboy Run. He’s also good in comedy but not like Jim Carrey. Minsan hindi ko gusto yung facial expression nya kasi ampanget ehehe. Pis.

From the title, I thought about it many times kung ano dun yung How to Lose at anu dun yung Alienate People. Simon Pegg (Sidney Young) is an amateur writer who had a chance to work for an international magazine company. Makulit at mejo ogag ang dating nya but it is not barrier for him to achieve his dream. Though it is a comedy movie, it is also inspirational to those who want to become a famous writer. Hmmm but actually he just did one favor and boom! He became famous. So it is not an inspirational movie. :(

So hanggang ngayon di ko maisip kung bakit ganun yung title. Nakakaloka ehehehe.

Rate: 5 dahil sa title. 7 para kina Kirsten Dunst at Megan Fox. Hmmm 6 for the story itself.

Guys please enlighten me!!

How to Lose Friends and Alienate People

I just watched P.S. I Love You starring Hilary Swank and seems this is where the Bea Alonzo’s And I Love You So got the idea. Had a perfect married life then suddenly the guy passed away due to brain tumor. If I am not mistaken ganun din yung kina Bea.

Anyway, I admire Hilary Swank when I first watched her Boys Don’t Cry. Though bata pa siya dun as a lesbian lover, ang galing na nya sobra. I think her forte is on drama like her Million Dollar Movie. She made me cry on that movie. And she’s uber sexy pala hahaha. Ayoko lang sa kanya yung bibig nya na parang ang laki laki. Hehehe

Back to the movie, it says “Till death do us part.” Masakit talaga pag nawalan ka ng mahal mo but still we really have to move on. Life must go on with or without them. I like Gerard Butler (Gerry) because from the moment he knew he is dying, he made some pakulo. He wants his wife (Hilary Swank) gradually accept the fact that he’s gone. I don’t want to spill it out so better watch it. That’s what you call a love story. And oo, kinikilig ako. (Sana ganun din yung magiging asawa ko eheheh) Also, the movie will teach you how to achieve the word MOVED ON.

This movie was way back 2007 pa. Sayang at hindi ko kaagad napanood to. Pero maganda talaga siya. I’ll give it a 9. Though her husband was gone, she now has a new love story. A happy ending.

P.S. I Love You

Johnny Depp as Mad Hatter made the movie more outstanding. Wala pa din siyang kupas. I also watched his Public Enemy and he proved na kahit anong role kaya nyang panindigan. He is one of the Hollywood actors that I really admire.

Ang gusto ko sa Hollywood movies, paiba iba ang bida. Hindi tulad sa pinoy movies, sila sila na lang lagi. Hindi porket sikat yung artista siya na lang lagi ang bida. At least sa Hollywood, they really choose the best who can portray the role. Neophyte man o hindi. BTW, sobrang putla ni Alice. Hindi healthy ang dating lolz.

You will never get bored while matching the movie (hindi pa dvd copy yung nakuha pero kita na very colorful ng setup). Nawili ako kina Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dumb, but if you will imagine them in reality, matatakot ka hehehe. Oh, before I forgot, aside from Mad Hatter (Johnny Depp), the Red Queen (Helena Bonham Carter) made the movie a bit funnier. Lalo yung scene sa baboy (oink oink).Nanghihina naman ako pag nakikita ko si White Queen (Anne Hathaway). Ewan ko ba hehehe. It is for you to see.

The battle between Alice and jabbawokees (dunno the spelling), parang ang dali ng laban nila, ni hindi nga ata naduguan si Alice e. Siguro dahil di pa gaano clear yung nakuha ko. Dapat nalaglag si Alice sa cliff tapos sasambutin siya ni Underdog. Tapos si Underdog ang tatalo kay jabbawokees. Then Alice and Underdog will get married. Joke lang. Underdog is a different movie heheh.

Shempre since Johnny Depp is my favorite, I’ll rate the movie as 9. Fair na yan ehehehe.

**Sorry nagiging spoiler na ko. Sa story lang ako nagfofocus and not in the technical aspects of the movie.

Alice in Wonderland

I have been an avid reader of Nicholas Sparks since I was in college. And most of his novels have sad endings. But this one is different. Hindi ko pa nababasa yung mismong novel, but I am expecting some changes on this movie. Sabi nga nila, it was only based in the novel and not copied. Kasi mawawala na daw ng trabaho ang mga writers.

It was starring Channing Tatum (John) a soldier who fall in love with a college student , Amanda Seyfried (Savannah) on a summer vacation. They need to be parted away because of their priorities but distance was never be a hindrance for their love. No internet, no mobile phones and snail mail was the only way of their communication. The twist was unexpected and heart breaking. Especially the scene where Savannah asked John if they will be seeing again and John didn’t answer back the opposite they used to be. But then love takes time.

Long distance relationship is difficult for a couple especially if they just met only for 2 weeks. But the movie shows it didn't matter how long you have known each to make this work. Patience, trust and understanding are the keys for a true love.

“True love comes to those who patiently wait.”

I have read some goofs from this movie. Hindi ko din agad napansin kung hindi ko to nabasa. A magic pen, Alan suddenly disappeared from the movie etc. Maybe they are very excited for the ending hehehe.

My rate: with goofs, 6 out of ten. Hindi smooth ang daloy ng eksena. Biglang may magbabago at may ibang mawawala. But for the story, 10. :)

It’s a 2D animated film. I felt like I’m watching cartoon movie way back 1990’s. I was kinda surprised because I thought I will be watching a 3D animated film like Finding Nemo. Looking at the poster kasi parang 3D e. Seems to be a low-budgeted film.

First thing I like about the movie is, the main character is black. As in negra na may pangong ilong. (That’s when I realize, bakit lahat ng negro e may pangong ilong?) Second is, they have this “making dreams come true” theme. A typical waitress wanting to have her own restaurant. and shempre as ended natupad naman yun. *SPOILER ALERT*

And third: If you will think that this movie is all about the princess and the frog, then you better watch it. :) Though it was inspired by The Frog Princess, they made it more exciting and adventurous. The twist, thumbs up! And as with the other fairy tales, they ended happily ever after. (I’m wondering is there any fairy tale that didn’t end up as happily ever after?)

My rate as 10 being the highest, I can give them 7.

Mood: I hope it’s not bad for my first movie review. (^o^)
