Movie commentary: Starting Over Again

Another Filipino love story movie, Starting Over Again. Seriously, why do they get the title from classic songs? It's very cliche. Well, any hows the movie was great and it was sad. I dunno why they are making such a typical films now. Before, it was all about mistresses and two-timers. Now, we have those stories of break-ups and ended up with another who turned out to be better than the last one (I can relate to that * Evil laugh*). Okay, back to the main topic. The movie was great (I said that again), the actors and actresses played good.

Seriously, I really don't understand why they titled it Starting Over Again when in the last part of the story they ended their relationship and the guy married his new lover. Oh right, they referred it to the lyrics of the song. Typical, just typical. But hey, for the director I'd give a 7+ rating. Bravo! So, okay. I'm not explaining the whole movie here.

Okay. A student who seriously loves her professor in college. She'd study hard just to impress the guy. She drives him crazy with all the screaming and shouting saying "I love you Sir!". Oh my, really? Even if I was in  her shoes I'd be too shy to do that If I had a crush on a teacher. Students don't do that now a days, or even mail letters. He, on the other hand doesn't even like the girl. Uh hello? A teacher and student relationship inside one institution? It's not allowed. I think that's in every school handbook. Teacher and student relationship in one campus is forbidden. Maybe because of favoritism and unequal relationship to other students. It's not balance, and not right. Unless, the student is from another school or she finished her studies. But during semesters and classes? Big no no.

• Toni Gonzaga, who plays Ginny Gonzales as an architecture student who happens to have a major crush on her history instructor. Her role as the childish, short-haired, smarty- pants school girl who would do anything just to have the attention of Marco. 
  
  
   
  Seriously Toni, what's with the wig thang? I can't seem to take my eyes off that jaw. But, you're a good actress. Keep it up. She plays better as well being childish. Well, I noticed that you have so many at hand. Can't you wear one bracelet for each day?
  
  Nice bag, Ginny.
  
  
  
   Papa Piolo, nice headband. Okay, Piolo plays as Marco Villanueva who is the history teacher in a University. He happens to be the crush ng campus of the said school. He's strong personality and his relationship to his students are a turn-on to Ginny. Though, he maybe classy in his role but he is good. Add hotness to that too. Nyaah!
  
  
  
   Okay, there goes the wig thing again. Toni looks so young in this scene and Piolo looks like a dad.
  
  
   Yeah, aside from being able to teach, Marco can also cook. Did I mention that he went to a culinary school? And, build a small restaurant for customers to taste his authentic dish? Oh, now you know. He loves to cook. Gosh! If I had a guy like that, I'd buy all the ingredients to all his dishes and a free taste to his booodeey!
  
  
   We all feel that, Ginny. But it looks to me that you are very ticklish of the way Marco kissed your shoulder. Grrr, Marco I want a bite of that. Hahaha! Seriously, Ginny? You look like shit.
  
  It's your fault Ginny. You left him for no reason. Now, look at you? Having second thought about seeing him or not. You're over-reacting at his letter. I should probably mention that you were the one who left in the first place. You ignored his letters. You went to Spain and came back after 4 years? How can that not hurt him? Now, you want him back? You're being selfish. And Toni's scene here seems so o.a. Really.
  
    His new lover, Iza Calzado plays as Pat. The new lover of Marco. They met at New York. Pat also loves to cook, well, baking. She loves to bake. And she's very pretty too, maybe the same age as Marco.
  
  
  Uhhh. Poor Ginny. Seeing the love of her life(EX) with another girl. A very typical pinoy movie. But seeing the ending made me cry because I wanted Marco and Ginny to live happily with each other not with another. But it was okay, since they started as friends again. Okay, advice though, never let go of the person you truly love and make that person feel important or else you'll end up regretting all the things you did. The pain will haunt you down. That's all loveers! Chao.

The Family Vs. American Dad

Watching movies about families just makes you wanna cry, especially those dramatic moments that makes it intense. Family means an individual who is loved, cared and protected by those people who are related by blood and by genes. In most societies, family are the principal institution for the socialization of children. Yeah, you'll probably suspicious that I took that out from another source. But it's true. Family means having those people you love so much has greater amount of power than any other source of happiness. They are the basic supplier in all your needs and wants. They are always there for you and they would do anything you ask them to, that's family.

After watching another mafia movie, I would do another movie commentary related with the film. How does a mafia boss protects it's family versus a CIA agent who barely spends time with his family. Okay, okay, I know it's really stupid to make the two parties being judged but I'd like to share somethings to you.

So before I start ranting about useless thoughts that I'd share. I would like to tell you that watching "The Family" made me think that having a mafia relative is cool. Yeah, I would like that very much. Getting to be so cool and dangerous. Being popular and known. The movie was all about a mafia boss and his family relocated to another place and being protected by the witness protection program or the FBI after snitching on the mob. To hide their former identity they must use other names so that they wouldn't be killed by other mafias. Unfortunately, they showed their old habits and blown their cover by handling the "family" way. Enabling their mafia cronies to track them down somewhere in France.

However, a cool undercover agent father and his weird family has their own "family" way. Being a father means you are responsible for the acts of your family --- Being the leader of the pack, the voice of the family and sometimes acting stupid is what you get. A housewife, daughter, and a son makes it an average and yet simple family but adding a pet who is a fish that can talk and an alien who is much less important to bare with. It makes it all weird even.

Fred Blake vs. Stan Smith.

 Old but such an award winning actor Robert De Niro, he plays the role as the mafia boss or the father of the family. He never liked being disrespected by other citizen nor strangers that passes by his moves. He'd kill you for that. Aside from brutally beating a plumber and the manager of a water company. He doesn't like being interrupted when he's being serious about something.

Oh, if only you were my dad I'd tell all the bullies at school to not mess with me coz having you around makes it all safe and protected. You are one smart ass Mr. Blake. He looks like  Noah from the bible. But his parenting as a father suits him very much, with all that hair in his face, he rather looked like a grandpa than a father. The personality he fits in the film is very rare and it suits him. The way a father does to protect his family and his dignity as a mafia boss. He is fucking cool because of the way he acts. Aside from being a fake writer, he has a taste for being an author. The things that make him a good guy.

A handsome father who is fresh and slightly a bastard to his own will. He's an agent and he is the also respected as the president of the CIA. Talk about a total protection program. No matter what you'll do he has his own stupid ways of parenting. Yeah, but atleast he has time for his wife, Francine. He can really be a hero because he protects his family by having his own gun. Tacky!

What about men and guns?  Yeah, they may look cool if you're wearing a tux and a police badge that's why Francine always makes him special in her own pretty bitchy ways. She's one hot american mom who does everything she can for her family.

 On the other hand, Michelle Pfeiffer play as Maggie - the wife of the Mafian leader Giovanni Manzoni. A one hot italian mom who is very protective for her family, especially when she cares so much for her husband. What's wrong with buying a peanut butter in France? It's food right? She's one bomb thrower-mother, nothing can get in her way and never ever mess with her or even eavesdrop.

A family, wouldn't be complete without children, right? Well, they say children are the future of every parents. Every mother and father would be very proud to bear a child. And the Smiths family couldn't be happier to have two adorable child. Hayley and Steve Smith. Hayley, she's a simple kid and a black sheep to the family. Fights hard for cancer because she's bald and she wears a black wig to be able to go out to socialize.. But only to his boyfriend. She's plain and smart and does everything that's right and proves that she is (well, sometimes).

Without nerds, it's not right. Steve Smith is one smarty-pants. Like most nerds, Steve enjoys hanging with his big bang friends who loves watching porn on the internet and plays monopoly games with popcorn ad juice box as energizers. See? What's wrong with that? He is never like his father who owns a gun and works as a sercet agent. He also enjoys gardening and baking (Gay? No. Nerds do that.). Although, he knows fishing and plays the basketball and can't even shoot one or make a free-throw. The fact that he still keeps a stuffed monkey in his room. Loser.

The italian children however has a different interest. They inherited from their father or mother. They are strong and fierce. Dianna Aragon plays as Belle the eldest and only daughter of Maggie and Giovanni. Never mess with this gal because she can give a punch and hits you with a tennis racket. I love the part when she beated that freckled face French guy who happens to be a loser and his friends. I am also the eldest and looks like we have some things in common. Hehehe! She's really pretty and it suits her.

  She's way hotter than her role in Glee. Though they have the same bitchy feminism.

Nerds and smartypants. Yeah, some nerds can be a bully, especially when you have a brother as one. John D'Leo plays as Warren Blake who is the only son of Maggie and Giovanni. He is such a cutie pie and a smart ass kid. The part where he beated those bullies who beated him first inside the mens room (Payback time). How cool is that? He never deals of anything and he has a language for words. He'd plan everything up and gets it all done. I tell ya' do not mess with any children of Mafias, they'll finish you up.

And 

A family wouldn't be also complete without a pet. Lucky for the Smiths, they have a goldfish (Claus) and an alien (Roger). Weird, but intriguing. Claus is a goldfish who happens to be a secret agent and has a major crush on Francinne, while Roger came from a planet called Zuma (Kidding).

Like any other normal family who have pets at home, the Blakes has their own K-nine. Now, it's very common with the quote that says a man's bestfriend is a dog. Well, Giovanni has his own rightside. Thankfully the dog was there to help them. When those hitmen had hunted them down and tracked their address in France, the dog never left their side and instead killed one of their enemy. Impressive. I wish I had a dog, but I'm too scared to pet an animal.

 Ain't he cute? Not! He looks like a wolf/ dog/ bat/ lion.

Oh well. That is all for my useless rants for this blog post. I conclude that a family is the most important source of energy, aside from food. They are always there emotionally, physically, spiritually and financially supportive of what you decide and what you'd do. Love your family 'cause they are always there for you when you need or not need them. I love my family, so much. Chao! :)

It Takes a Man and a Woman (movie commentary)

I just watched a local movie called "It Takes a Man and a Woman", when I heard this movie all that would come up are sex and procrastination and babies and other stuffs couple would dare to do. But we are not here to talk about those unnecessary shit. This movie is all about a simple love story. One thing I like about Philippines movies are the romance and comedy that blends in and make the perfect moment which I find it cute and the "kilig" stuff, also something that would relate to filipino people nowadays. That's pinoy, and it's more fun in the Philippines. Hahaha!
Well, all I couls say is that it is a must watch, must see movie. Starring Sarah Geronimo as Laida and John Lloyd Cruz as Miggy/ Miguel. They are such a cute couple, and they make the perfect romantic comedy couple in modern phillipine love story. They make such outstanding loveteam in terms of romance and comedy being combined with. To start with, Laida went to abroad (NYC) as a staff in a magazine company and Miggy stayed in the Philippines, he is a business man who owns a certain magazine company in Pinas. Uncertain problem came to their relationship, like Miggys father died and Laidas mother caught her father with another (hey! that sort of rhyme there. Okay. Whatever). Miggy needed company and called Laida for to come back to the Phil. Unfortunately, when Laida came back.. she saw Miggy kissing with another girl (Isabelle Daza) and their relationship turned into a break-up which Laida went fleeing back to new york leaving Miggy Mr. Saddy-Pants. Boo-Hoo! A typical pinoy love quarrel. That's all your fault Miggy! Why can't you wait for her to arrive. It was suppose to be a surprise, wasn't it? Okay. Nevermind. Miggy had to propose at a very wrong time.. And you must watch this movie so that you would know what happened next.

*John Lloyd as Miggy. Here I go, his role really suites him. He was such a Mr. Goody-TwoShoes with all the formalitities and then he turned into a bad boy uptight bastard. Oh, Men.. whenever they make mistakes they change for the worst! (Well, not all). Ain't he just a dreamboy? I swore I'd kidnap a guy like him and put him inside a big sack and into the closet :) A surprisingly good guy turned into a slacker after a true love break-up.

John Lloyd. John Lloyd John Lloyd.

But the name "Miguel" suites you way cooler.

Sarah Geronimo as Laida. She's such a pretty little actress and her role suites her fine and nice. Her acting, her KPOP style, her accent, her cute face and..

What's up with the fucking wig?

Did I mention I have a crush on Isabelle Daza. Man, I wanna be a man right now.. Just look at her:

Well, that is all for my movie commentary. Lesson learned? Forgive and forget and get married! Hahaha! except the last two lines.Tada! Bye fans. Enjoy watching :)

Breaking Dawn-The Finale

This is what i'm waiting for. The finale of the Twilight: Breaking Dawn Part 2. i just love the whole movie thingy, and i don't care if it has only a 5. something in IMDb, okay? so here it goes.. well, since bella turned into a vampire, everything just went to a blast. her sparkly red eyes, her perfectly toned body, her smooth and pale skin, oh why oh why.. she had to be fucking perfect? her transformation as a vampire just made it all wild and.. you know. she savors her moment to her husband, edward and hugged him really tight and edward was like "bella, you are a lot stronger than i am as of now" shit.

i'm so freaking jealous of this part right here.. hmph! she just developed her formely new beauty into the eyes of her man, edward. ouch! she requested to meet her daughter, renesmee but edward told her that she needs to hunt first. during the hunt, she tends to learn her abilities, well, as a starter she is a fast learner though. when they returned home, jacob uses himself as a test subject to see if she is tame enough to meet her daughter. once she passes the test, she goes on to meet renesmee, who shows her first memory of bella as a human. bella finds out that jacob imprinted on renesmee and angrily confronts him about it.

 poor jacob. being attacked by his bestfriend, aka, his first love, and turns out to be her mother in-law. get it? hahaha! okay, whatever. this part here, where jacob named renesmee, "nessie", which bella finds it frustrating because the name nessie is a similar name to the loch-ness monster. hahaha! what a scary face.

calm down bella. jeez! you look like you've been exorcised. ugh! i hate that term---- it reminds me of something scary.

after the whole thingy, night falls, this part right here.. where in alice gave bella a birthday gift, which bella seemed to be panicking because she stopped aging 3 days ago during her transformation as a vampire. ain't it cute? i could live in this kind of house. it's cute, cozy and simple. unfortunately, it's very quiet. too quiet and it's in the forest. they had to spend the entire night making love with each other (bella and edward). yeah, yeah, whatever. the book didn't say vampires could make love, haller?!?!

the next morning, the cullens were leaving and tell charlie that bella is dead. jacob heard the whole conversation and never wanted them to leave forks, especially on renesmee. he decided to visit charlie and show him his insticnt for being a dog, eh, wolf. rar! jacob revealed his true furry animal thingy and charlie almost had the heart attack! bad, bad dog jacob, very bad. hehehe! but look at his beautiful face? ain't it nice? hunky, chunky right?

so charlie went to the cullens and saw bella. hugged her and still having that father-daughter relationship between them, also the human-father and vampire-daughter relationship, eh, eh. hahaha!

charlie saw renesmee, which they lied to as their "adopted daughter" but she really is the real half-human, half-vampire child of bella and edward cullen. 

she is such a pretty girl, right? talk about being half-human, half vampire.. she grows really fast and develops a unique power. the problem is, she has less acting during the film. her lines where like, ------. haha! you know what i mean, she never talks a lot, she's just there.. being the highlight yet she never does anything. 

i like this part, never underestimate a girls toughness for she can out-strenghth you with her talent. bwahaha! poor emmett, beaten by a girl :)

after that, while bella, renesmee and jacob were going out, it was winter and renesmee was catching snowflakes. they were happily spending time with each other. until someone was spying on them that made bella jump to her feet, literally. she saw that it was irina. irina then went to the volturi and told them that the cullens committed a crime against their law--- making an immortal child. alice had a vision that the volturi were coming to kill them all, for making an immortal child (renesmee). bu the leaders didn't know that renesmee was born and not bitten by a vampire. and that, she is half-human and half-vampire. the cullens had to make plans to bring witnesses for renesmee that she is not really an immortal child and bella & edward really are the biological parents. they toured around the world to find friends which can help them and they let them understand that renesmee is not really a pure vampire. luckily, many believed that the cullens were telling the truth. 

she gave this simple locket to renesmee. it looks like an antique, coz it's such an oldie. i don't even know what it says but i think it has gotta do with them being together.

Bella finds a clue left by Alice, who has left the family with Jasper, and goes to find J. Jenks, a lawyer who has been forging illegal documents for the Cullens for decades. He gives Bella a set of IDs, passports, and driver's license forged for Renesmee and Jacob.

Alistair, one of the witnesses, leaves for his own survival. The Cullens and their allies gather around a bonfire the night before theconfrontation and share war-stories. Upon confronting the gathered Cullen witnesses, the Volturi discover that they have been misinformed and immediately execute Irina for her mistake. However, they remain undecided on whether Renesmee should be viewed as a threat to vampires' secret existence. Alice and Jasper return in time to present their "proof" that Renesmee poses no danger, but Aro is determined to destroy the Cullens. Carlisle initiates the battle with Aro, and is immediately destroyed. The rest of the Cullens, Volturi and their respective allies engage in a huge battle, killing Jasper, Seth, Leah and multiple others while Renesmee escapes with Jacob. Aro personally attacks Bella and Edward after most of his coven was destroyed, which results in his own destruction.

The scene is then brought back to the moment when Alice "shows" Aro her proof, revealing that the entire battle scene was a vision of his demise if he proceeds with his plan to destroy them. The new witnesses, Huilen and her half-vampire nephew, Nahuel, tell their story, revealing that they are actually much like pure vampires, but merely more human. The Volturi then leave in peace at Aro's confirmation that no danger is involved. As they leave, Aro glances back at Alice, then Bella, realizing that he has given up much to save his annihilation. The Cullens and their allies take a moment to rejoice in their victory. The Romanians demand to launch an attack, but no one is willing to follow, prompting their ambition to an end.

As their friends leave, Edward tells Jacob that Renesmee is lucky to have him. He asks if he should start calling Edward "dad" now, but he disagrees immediately. While the four of them (Bella, Edward, Jacob and Renesmee) share a moment together, Alice shows Edward a vision of the four of them. Renesmee has grown into a fine young woman and is living happily and peacefully with Jacob and their family.

Sometime later, back in the meadow, Bella removes her shield to give Edward access to her thoughts for the first time. She tells him that no one has ever loved anyone as much as she loves him, but he disagrees saying there is one exception. He then asks her to remove her shield again, but she tells him they have forever to work on it.

kristen stewart, is really hot. okay, you can hate me for saying the truth though, but i gotta admit she really bought the eyes in there. wew! i am never a kristen fanatic but this chic can has guts and sometimes.. plainly boring.

okay. i just searched some of it in the last part coz i got so tired. this is the end of it. happy stalking guys!
