I think it was that guy who directed XXX with Vin Diesel or sumtin and some other inane action movie that you forget about after 5 minutes. The script is hella weak and the plot is very shallow. Action/fight scenes look played out and could have been much better. So why 3 stars? Well, its because it delivers what it promises. Its just your basic adventure movie with some cool CGI and some pretty good locations. It doesn't present itself as anything other than that. So being that its just an honest action/adventure movie meant to take you on a ride for a couple of hours or so, it succeeds in its http://tontonpacute.multiply.com/reviews/item/29 Sat, 2 Aug 2008 18:06:11 -0000 Nakaw pics from http://tontonpacute.multiply.com/photos/album/76/Jerems_July_Despedida Sun, 27 Jul 2008 05:52:44 -0000 I wanted to give the movie a lower rating but since Angelina Jolie was freakin hot in this one I had to give it at least 3 hehe. Sure it was really action packed but c'mon. Bending bullets?!? Really? I mean how stoned do you have to get to think of something like that. Bullets hitting each other?! That doesn't even happen in comic books. The plot and story was very shallow as well. Its like they forced the story to comply with the twist ending which we could all see a mile away. Despite those drawbacks though, it was still enjoyable to watch. Its not like I had to get out of my seat because it was so terrible. Besides, watching Angelina Jolie kick some ass ain't so bad. My only regret though, is having to fork over movie money to see it when it would have been enough to have just watched it on http://tontonpacute.multiply.com/reviews/item/28 Thu, 17 Jul 2008 13:49:47 -0000 Good but not great. Hella fun though. Special effects weren't really top notch, story was piss poor but hey, if you just wanna have fun then this movie will work for you. Will Smith is his usual cool self. Charlize Theron is totally hot as always while Jason Bateman is funny as hell. A friend of mine almost got into a fight twice in one night after having watched Hancock. Na pump up daw siya eh haha. So there. 3 stars for a pump up http://tontonpacute.multiply.com/reviews/item/27 Thu, 17 Jul 2008 13:40:33 -0000 Ok, its over. I've just seen the best ever super hero movie made. All succeeding super hero movies will just look shabby in comparison to this masterpiece. I don't even wanna say that its just a super hero movie, it is so much more than that. The plot is really deep and thick that you wanna see a novel come out from it, so you can really sink you teeth in it. You thought the first one was dark? Prepare for more in this sequel. Darkness aside, it also provides us with characters that we can really relate and identify with. Each character really contributed to the story of the movie. Heath Ledger will probably be getting an Oscar nomination for his joker portrayal. I would say that his joker was even better than Jack Nicholson's. The writers really gave the actors a lot more to work with as compared to the first one. I think what sets this movie aside from all other super hero movies is the way it presents the human psyche. All aspects of human psychology seems to be represented. Its not... http://tontonpacute.multiply.com/reviews/item/26 Thu, 17 Jul 2008 13:31:34 -0000 Much much better than the Ang Lee version. More action, less drama boohoo and Norton does another good job as Bruce Banner. Gotta love those Stan Lee and Lou Ferrigno and Robert Downey cameos. Hulk Smash FTW! Can't wait for that Avengers movie. http://tontonpacute.multiply.com/reviews/item/22 Mon, 23 Jun 2008 13:27:55 -0000 Wasn't able to see the original so I can't really compare this remake. Anyway, since Steve Carell (one of my favorite comedians) was in it, I decided to see the movie. It starts out strongly but kinda tapers off towards the end. Carell is funny as always, but it seems like he wasn't really given enough material to play with as well as other actors to play off of. The old guy from little miss sunshine was pretty good though. And if your gonna get Anne Hathaway as the hot love interest, you might as well put her in more hot scenes. She kinda bored me in the movie. Anyway, 3 starts for being good but not http://tontonpacute.multiply.com/reviews/item/21 Mon, 23 Jun 2008 13:20:26 -0000 Happy birthday to Marielle na masyadong busy hindi na naka kain.

In terms of social relevance, Indiana Jones probably ranks just a notch lower under the Star wars series. SO anyway, the new movie definitely lived up to the hype. It might not be as great as the past films but this new one certainly delivers. Its good to know that today's generation will have their own Indiana Jones movie to fuel their http://tontonpacute.multiply.com/reviews/item/20 Sun, 25 May 2008 07:56:52 -0000 Tagged along with Guia's family to Anvaya Cove. The place was pretty good. Top of the line amenities. The drive took around a 3 and a half hours via Slex, Nlex and then Esitex? Too bad the weather wasn't cooperative when we got there. It was still cool though, it was my first time going to the beach during a storm. I liked how the sea was really going berserk, and how the wind could almost topple you over. The next day, the weather was better, the skies cleared up and the sun came out. Still couldn't hit the beach though since the waves were still pretty high. So we just stuck it out in the http://tontonpacute.multiply.com/photos/album/69/0517-1808_Anvaya_Cove Wed, 21 May 2008 03:46:05 -0000 Hard core fans might like this one, but for me, a casual Speed racer fan, it didn't really float my boat. I didn't like the fact that they practically shot the whole film in front of a blue screen. The movie was way too colorful and kinda hurt my eyes. It was pretty long as well. I think little kids might like it, although they have no idea who speed racer http://tontonpacute.multiply.com/reviews/item/19 Sat, 10 May 2008 07:41:52 -0000 To celebrate my girlfriend's graduation, her family invited me to have dinner and do some karaoke with them at Red Box. http://tontonpacute.multiply.com/photos/album/60/03-29-08_Red_Box Sat, 3 May 2008 12:11:29 -0000 My girlfriend graduated from college today. She finished a BS in nursing from University of Santo Tomas and the rites were held at the PICC (dunno what the acronym stands for). She's well on her way to becoming a good nurse. The next step will be to pass the board exams for nursing in June. After the ceremony, we went over to Serendra to have lunch at Chelsea. Congratulations and good luck http://tontonpacute.multiply.com/photos/album/59/03-27-08_Guias_Graduation Sat, 3 May 2008 11:51:48 -0000 My girlfriend and her parents were supposed to watch this concert but unfortunately her dad couldn't make it so they had an extra ticket. So, as not to let it go to waste, I agreed to go with them to the event even though its not really my cup of tea. To me, Neyo and all those other young male black singers sound the same. The ticket was kinda pricey as well for Neyo's short set. Anyway, we still tried to have fun and it was still overall a pretty good night. Capped it off with dinner at Cafe http://tontonpacute.multiply.com/photos/album/57/03-01-08_Neyo_Concert Sat, 3 May 2008 11:09:36 -0000 Unlike most people I actually attended my class even though it was V-day. I guess I have good streak in me somewhere. The original plan was to got to Serendra but when I saw the traffic going north on the Slex I decided to go to Tagaytay instead. I asked my friend Bunny to suggest a good place so I went with her suggestion to eat at Boun Giorno over at Cliff House. It was really cold that night so we ended up having hot coco at Cafe http://tontonpacute.multiply.com/photos/album/54/02-14-08_Valentines_Day Sat, 3 May 2008 10:14:51 -0000 My Grandma was staying with during this time so the family decided to celebrate Chinese New year. My Grandma is a daughter of a Chinese immigrant from the mainland who tried to make his luck here in the Philippines back in the 40's.

It sucks when your birthday is on a Monday and a school night.

Robert "White Powder" Downey Jr. cast as Tony stark? (Well if you read the comic he's not the first guy that comes into mind when you think about Tony Stark). 2 hours and 15 minutes for an action movie? Well, despite those knocks the movie still delivers pretty well. Although i wouldn't have minded a longer battle scene with the Iron Man suit ver. 2.0 protptype. I thought this movie was gonna be another Marvel flop, (Fantastic 4 two, Ghostrider, Daredevil anyone?) but I thought it was pretty cool. Fight scenes were good, special effects were top notch and you gotta love that mechanical suit. Sort of reminded me of how transformers transformed. Director did a good job in casting good actors for the movie, Downey Paltrow, that dude from hustle and flow and Bridges are all respectable actors which brought something to the table to improve the movie. There may be hints for a sequel (War machine suit might go to dude from hustle a... http://tontonpacute.multiply.com/reviews/item/18 Thu, 1 May 2008 15:02:00 -0000 After a nearly flawless season, the Red Lions avenged their sole defeat handed by the Letran Kinghts. Revenge is indeed sweet. The Lions beat the Knights 2-0 in the best of three series cruising to a double digit win in game 2.

Ive been waiting for this movie to be made ever since I was a kid. There was a animated movie back in the 80's but that was kinda corny. Anyway, this new one certainly surpassed my expectations. I was on the yahoo movie boards, and a lot of people have been putting it down. Dont listen to anyone putting the movie down, they are probably those uptight movie nerds or 40 year old geeks that collect transformer toys without taking them out of the box. I was a fan of the cartoons ever since I was a kid, and I understan where they are coming from. There are a lot of glaring differences from the cartoon series to the movie (ex. bumble bee was a beetle now he's a camaro).But I can forgive the movie for veering away from the cartoon storyline. Everybody will tell you about the movies faults but you know what? It just fucking works! Even if it feels like a big ad for GM, filled w/ a lot of cliches and 2 hours and a half long, It still works! Wh... http://tontonpacute.multiply.com/reviews/item/17 Sat, 30 Jun 2007 17:05:05 -0000 The ultimate cliche' movie. Yung 2 bida nag LQ tapos nagkabalikan. Yung kalaban naman kunyari masama, kakaibiganin ng bida tapos magiging mabait tapos isasacrifice sarili para sa mga bida. Complete with a resurrection of the previous kontrabida na kunyari kakampi na sa bida but everyone knows will stab the bida in the back. YAAAWN. I've seen this storyline about a hundred times already. Fans of the comic book should stay away from this movie. The silver surfer had so much character potential but was basically a robot. Heck even C3PO was more interesting. The movie really messed up such a cool character just like they did in ghost rider. I just hope the transformers wont be butchered up and packaged as another cliche' movie like the not so fantastic 4 http://tontonpacute.multiply.com/reviews/item/16 Wed, 13 Jun 2007 13:00:42 -0000
