Movies: Why Star Cinema's "In My Life" Is So Special



It was the same time last year, I was an intern at Star Cinema, when I first heard that Vilma Santos and John Lloyd Cruz are going to make a movie together. I then, read some part of the script and found out about "the kiss", the endings, and who's gonna play who. Since then, I've waited for news about this movie, searched for behind the scenes info and even watched the full trailer premiere. A year later, I'm inside the movie house with my mom, watching two guys kiss., laughing at Ate Vi and crying over John Lloyd's grieve. I must say, it's one of the best movie experience I've ever had in years.




It's a very different Vilma

Movies: Kimmy Dora Made Me Craugh


One of the funniest Filipino movie I've ever seen! I have to say, Eugene Domingo is one of the most brilliant actresses of this generation, It takes a really smart lady to portray the characters of Dora, and especially Kimmy. I swear, on the first few minutes of the film, I forgot that the two lead characters are being portrayed by only one person. Bravo!



The story was good,  I know the intention was to make you laugh and cry at the same time, the cry part, I'm not so sure. Masyadong pilit. And since it's a Joyce Bernal comedy, there's a lot of inside jokes among the cast and crew that she decided to show on film, which I really don't find funny since I can't relate. And the dog jokes? Hindi na kailangan.
