Long before its release, Horrible Bosses was readily compared to another well known male barkada film, The Hangover.
It may be unfair to judge a film outside its own merits, but when it’s a film that works, who cares what you compare it to.

Despite having an ambiguously gay bear duo, Nick Nolte singing Flo Rida’s Low, Rosario Dawson and a reptile handler named Venom, Zookeeper doesn’t really rise above it’s station as a throwaway comedy.
But is that really a bad thing?

Contagion is not the Hollywood blockbuster thrill-piece that a lot of audiences are expecting it to be. It doesn’t have the high-tempo score, dramatic confrontations or spectacular set pieces that Hollywood wants us to see.
Then again, that’s probably the reason why it’s so frightening.

The first thing you have to realize about Fright Night is that you don’t watch it expecting to be frightened. That said, you can sit back and enjoy what is essentially an action-adventure-coming-of-age flick, but with teeth.

Zombadings relentlessly throws ludicrous situation after ludicrous situation at you. But Instead of getting lost in the undead body of offbeat humor, the movie boasts a lively beating heart.
That was the last undead metaphor you’ll read before the full review.

Crazy Stupid Love suffers from a lot of things. Not the least of which is an identity crisis. It’s part family drama, part screwball, part coming of age, part romantic comedy.
But then again, if you’re in love, then you’re allowed to be a bit confused. Unless of course; you’re a film.

There are about three very good reasons why Rise of the Planet of the Apes doesn’t promise to be a very good film.
Fortunately enough, those reasons are pretty much thrown out the window after the first ten minutes.

Showing in commercial theaters this week is the big winner at the recently concluded Cinemalaya Independent Film Festival, Ang Babae sa Septic Tank.
Eugene Domingo, check. JP Cuison‘s poster, check. But does the movie measure up to the hype?

Director Joe Johnston is very much in love with the 1940’s. Captain America: The First Avenger isn’t so much a super hero film as it is a pulp flavored romp that captures, however broadly, the spirit of the time.
And that’s a good thing.
