Star Wars: The Last Jedi | May The Force Be With You



Frankly speaking, I've never really seen the any Star Wars movie previously. Though I have seen some of them in passing during bus rides but never really finished one. This would be the first of the franchise that I watched in full and inside a theater. I have minimal background about the FORCE and the characters involved but that did not hinder me to enjoy the movie.


The movie feels like a stand-alone movie as I was able to understand how things are connected with each other, maybe it's because the FORCE was awakened in me or something. If I'm not mistaken, this is the third generation of the intergalactic characters? Even so, the movie still has it's charms. The sarcasm of some of the characters are so amusing. Though the movie has a lot of quiet moments, it still makes me gasp in awe. I see why this franchise has a lot of following over the years.

 Seen the movie? Let me know what you think by commenting below. May the FORCE be always with you!

Hey there movie buffs! So the Pista ng Pelikulang Pilipino officially kicks off today in cinemas nationwide. Have you visited the theaters today and watched quality films included in the festival? Well I have and was able to watch AWOL, one of the entries from Skylight Films and Cinemabro. The movie stars Gerald Anderson as a military soldier gone rogue in order to keep his family safe. The story might be a little formulaic but the way that it was skillfully executed on screen making it enjoyable to watch. The movie gives us a glimpse of what our soldiers sacrifice to be of service to the country. It describes how strong the brotherhood between soldiers are as tight as family ties and how they keep their vows to serve and protect the country and the people. It is one thrilling and action-packed film that is worthy to be seen on screen.  Not sure if it was just me or because Gerald Anderson was top-billing the movie but it almost have a little "On The Job...

Photo from imdb website Hey guys! Sorry if I have not had an entry lately as I have been busy being an adult. LOL! Anyway, here is my first horror movie entry for my blog. Honestly, I am not a fan of horror movies as I cringe every time there is a horrific suspense scenes. I was just glad that the cinema was packed with movie-goers that their reactions make me laughed and distracted me from the horrors on the screen. I think we all know Annabelle ; the doll that has evil connections and first appeared in the movie "The Conjuring" . Since the doll got the audience terrified, she got her solo movie titled "Annabelle" . Now, the origins of the demonic doll has been further explored in "Annabelle: Creation".  The doll was made by Samuel Mullin in 1943.
