THREE YEARS


I have to confess...I almost forgot that it was almost three years since my first published review on the blog and this third year has been crazy with some weeks especially during the summer where numbers skyrocketed as to how many is reading my reviews and also what a rollercoaster year this is had been regarding a few great movies, good movies and bad movies.

But, again, I want to say thank you to everybody who has been reading my movie reviews, in-depth discussions, great selections (classic films) and some lists. It is you all that strive me to push forward as to what movies I recommend and share and why I did like or hate the overall project. Plus, sometimes, I sacrifice myself for sharing my pain with y'all after a bad movie experience so that you will not have to suffer. Hahaha!

However, please...go ahead and read some past reviews and GREAT SELECTIONS. Let's hope for another year.

(By the way, I actually made that image above. I'm getting better little by little. Graphic design is not my forte.)

2015 Documentaries

I have only seen 6 documentaries this year which also includes Amy and I Am Chris Farley . But, I have to be honest, this has not been a particularly strong year for documentaries except for onethat got me emotionally and mentally as what I examine for when they uncover the truth or some facts from the people involved in these documentaries. But, here are the four I have seen this year: Listen To Me Marlon, Unrated, 4 stars This is the most insightful documentary of the year as we only hear Marlon Brando narrating his life and experiences what he has gone through regarding his family, his private life and his film experiences regarding The Godfather , Apocalypse Now , Last Tango in Paris , etc. It is like Marlon Brando came out of his grave to give us another profoundly moving movie only we hear his voice and scenery and nothing else. The Look of Silence, R, 3.5 stars Joshua Oppenheimer's follow-up documentary is a light-hearted but still-disturbing film regarding a

Daddy's Home 2 (2017), PG-13, ★1/2

The first Daddy's Home was surprisingly a financial success as I thought it was not as bad as many people thought. I thought it was a solid cable watch because it had enough laughs for that sort of mixed recommendation. I was not craving for a sequel for this movie because again, comedy sequels have a very bad record, however, the only difference is that it is not too late since the first movie came out a few years ago. But, this sequel is a reminder as to why we do not need a sequel to a hit comedy because this is a pretty much forgettable comedy, especially a holiday comedy...which I hade a guilty pleasure for. This did not work for me. Brad and Dusty (Will Ferrell and Mark Wahlberg) have become friends after the events of the first film and they set up a co-dad system where their two children, Megan and Dylan, spending time at each father's home. Dusty has re-married to writer Karen (Victoria's Secret model Alessandra Ambrosio) and he is step-dad to Adrianna, Karen&
