BAMBANTI

Nobody told me that this will be a heavy drama. The trailer looks fine, the poster looks bad. I was expecting of a tiring storyline like in Ekstra, but damn, this shit made me cry.

NINJA PARTY

Disclaimer: The following review will mostly be in Filipino language. I apologize to the foreigners and the ultra magnetic supercosmic bourgeois who might not understand it. This opinion comes from a normal moviegoer who liked Tribu and who doesn’t praise himself a “critic”. 

IMBISIBOL

Before, it was “Ang mamatay nang dahil sa Hapon.”
Nowadays, it’s “Ang mabuhay nang dahil sa Hapon.”

SWAP


Before anything else, let me share to you that this is the first 2015 film I've seen. Yes, I missed a couple of movies in the past months because I was catching up on a lot of films from the previous year. But now I’m back, expect more and faster reviews. Let’s do this!
