Earlier this week, I finally managed to finish reading Robert Ludlum’s The Bourne Identity. What drove me to grab the book when I saw a copy in Book Sale, was the fact that I always see it on cable and could not finish up the movie Read more…

This is way too late from the time the movie was shown, nonetheless, let me tell you about what I think of the movie.  Read more…

I bought a copy of the book earlier this year, as another gift for my husband. I think this time around it was for either a Valentine’s gift or a peace offering. Anyway, knowing how my life is in a constant frenzy, it was only last Saturday night that I finally decided to get hold of the book and read it.

Over the weekend, the hubby and I decided to watch the fourth installment of the Blockbuster movie Pirates of the Caribbean, starring none other but Johnny Depp, who seem to be casted in roles that always makes him look weird if not unkempt and totally in need of bathing.

I finally managed to finish reading Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows! Hubby got me the book way back January of this year and it’s only last week that I decided to pick it up and read it and actually finish it. I miss reading I must say. Read more…

My son would surely be delighted to see his favorite shiny red Lightning McQueen back on the fast lane. He is equally fond of Mater and Doc Hudson. I wonder what the story will be in this cartoon sequel, and for sure there will be new characters to spice up the movie. I just saw the poster last week in the movie house when we watched Fast Five, and so I’m just really excited for my little boy. I certainly hope SM Cinema is still having a special screening for families with kids with sensory problems, otherwise, we’ll just have to watch it at home then.

As I was browsing the net earlier, I found a site that says the movie is going to be shown on June 24th, although I’m not certain if that goes for the Philippine showing as well. I’ll just post an update once I find that out.

Thanks to Teleserv, I got to watch the newest addition to the Fast and Furious movies. I asked the husband to watch it in my behalf instead since I know he’d enjoy it more that I would, but something came up and he was unable to do so. So I went and watched the movie with other blogger friends. It was refreshing to see some of my blogger friends once again, and to finally meet some in person.

Going back to the movie, as always it’s such a wonder to watch those fancy cars! Real cool cars and well the story line, I’d say it’s really a movie. What I mean by that is that it’s way too ambitious to be able to plan and pull off something like that in real life. Aside from the previous casts, it was fun to see the Rock playing the role of a US top gun on the hunt for Vin Diesel and his troops. The story starts off with Vin Diesel being sentenced to imprisonment and was later on “rescued”. Most of the movie was shot in Rio, where the group decides to target a millionaire engaged in illegal activities and that’s where the whole story revolved.

Nope, I’m not giving away anymore than that. Don’t want to put some spoilers. Just want you to know that I had fun watching the movie. Lots and lots of cars and lots of good laugh as well in between.

The second part of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows is due for worldwide screening on July 15! I just checked out the trailer and my! I’m beyond excited! Now, I’m trying to finish off the book since I haven’t read it. Also, I’m trying to check out the web now to find out schedules for premiere night or reserved seating for IMAX cinemas. In the mean time let me share with you the trailer.

Last night, I decided to download the movie Hachiko: A Dog’s Story. I was definitely warned that it’s a sure-fire tear-jerker. It is a story about a friendship about one man and his dog. One cold night, fate brought man and puppy together and set them on a journey of love, friendship and unconditional loyalty. It’s a true story about a dog who’s unwavering loyalty for his human carried him on day after day, season after season, to wait at the train station where fate brought them together,  for 9 years since his human died. He was there, never missing a day, still awaiting the return of his dear friend.

My words wont do justice to Hachi’s love and loyalty, please watch the film and see how one dog is capable of such devotion. No other creature is deserving of the term – man’s best friend, but a dog. As a little boy once said when asked what love is: its a puppy wagging its tail excitedly, eager to see you, even if you left it alone all day. Hachiko: A Dog story perfectly encapsulates the deep bond a man and a dog can have.

Warner Bros. Pictures proudly announces its enviable slate of films for 2011. Highlights include a new screen incarnation of comic book hero “Green Lantern,” a compelling re-imagining of “Red Riding Hood,” an all-girl, kick-ass action fantasy in “Sucker Punch” and the shocking conclusion to the “Harry Potter” saga in “Deathly Hallows – Part 2.”

“Green Lantern.” Each sector of space is protected by a Green Lantern, possessing a power ring that uses a powerful green energy to do anything within the limits of the user’s imagination and will power. When the Green Lantern assigned to this sector of space finds himself dying on planet Earth, he tells the ring to find a suitable successor. The chosen replacement, hot-shot test pilot Hal Jordan (Ryan Reynolds), finds himself with a new job he never expected…

“Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows – Part 2.” In this epic finale, the battle between the good and evil forces of the Wizarding world escalates into an all-out war. The stakes have never been higher and no one is safe. But it is Harry Potter (Daniel Radcliffe) who may be called upon to make the ultimate sacrifice as he draws closer to the climactic showdown with Lord Voldemort. It all ends here.

“Sucker Punch.” Director Zach Snyder’s epic action fantasy takes us into the vivid imagination of a young girl (Emily Browning) whose dream world provides the ultimate escape from her darker reality. Unrestrained by the boundaries of time and place, she is free to go where her mind takes her, and her incredible adventures blur the lines between what’s real and what is imaginary.
