Movie Digest # 010

SUNSHINE
Greenbelt 3, Cinema 2, April 9, 3:45pm

One of those (space travel films). May isang incident na hindi na sana isinama sa pelikula. The writer even pokes fun at a possible alien encounter but the material ends up with the old gimmickry. Sayang. Sobrang cool at hip pa naman ng mga images (trademark ng mga Danny Boyle films) to a point na na-sacrifice na ang believability.

Friends who might appreciate it: MTV generation peeps.

THE REAPING
Greenbelt 3, Cinema 1, April 10, 9:05pm

Another one of those (suspense/thriller films). The good thing about this film is that it doesn’t have to be too CGI-ish. Old school ang atake at may maturity ang pagkakadirek kaya hindi s’ya nakakainis panoorin. Unforgettable sa akin ang dalawang eksena: ‘yung bloody river at ‘yung locust scene na in-execute in broad daylight.

Friends who might appreciate it: those who wish to have a good chill while enjoying a bucket of popcorn.
