Star Trek (2009)

Saturday, May 30th, 2009

A generally unbelievable movie experience Star Trek 2009 turned out to be. Kudos to the Scriptwriters for coming up with a terrrific script, and for J.J. Abrams for putting it all together.
‘The Good News’
The first fifteen minutes of the movie involving the birth of James T. Kirk is I think one of [...]

Wanted

Wednesday, November 5th, 2008

Ah … another of those movies with cool, cool firearms, following in the footsteps of movies like “Blade”, or “Heat”. This time, though, “Wanted” likely will top all of them, as it is a gun-nut movie heaven.

The Incredible Hulk 2008

Saturday, September 27th, 2008

It definitely is not a “restart” of the Hulk movie franchise, but it’s not a straight-cut sequel either, since the origin, as told thru the opening credits of the film, does deviate from Ang Lee’s “Hulk” a couple of years back.

The movie also is a lot more graphically violent than the [...]

Spiderman 3 (Movie Review)

Sunday, May 6th, 2007

Just saw “Spiderman 3″, & my notes about the movie:
* Good thing they finally gave Stan Lee (the creator of “Spiderman”) a speaking line in his cameo in this movie, & he even got to say his favorite line, “‘Nuff said!”. Watch out for it.
* Stan must’ve been very proud, & lucky [...]

The Da Vinci Code (Movie Review)

Saturday, May 20th, 2006

Finally saw the movie at one of the Robinson’s Malls South of Manila. It was showing at 3 of the 6 moviehouses there, which impressed me, considering that the movies showing in other theaters were “M.I. 3″, “Poseidon” & “Over the Hedge”.
As expected, there were a few people in the first screening, but by [...]
