Movie Review: Safe House

I enjoy watching Denzel Washington movies. No matter what role you put that man in, he seems to give 110% percent effort in everything, and he excels every minute you see him on screen. The last movie I saw him headline was "Unstoppable", as a train conductor trying to stop an uncontrollable unit on a high-speed collision course. He co-starred with Star Trek's own Chris "Jim Kirk" Pine on that one, and the flick was a pure adrenaline and popcorn rush vehicle that saw enjoyment from me. Now, the legendary actor teams up with another young and successful actor, Ryan Reynolds, in a action drama that will offer mind games and wild goose chases for the average buff. Special thanks again goes to Solar Entertainment for the screening of this film.

The WWFX Experience 2012!

I've been a fan of Professional Wrestling for as long as I can remember.

As a kid, I enjoyed seeing its early beginnings, idolizing legends and immortals in the industry such as Hulk Hogan, The Ultimate Warrior, and The Undertaker, and my cousins and I would go cheer on as they'd take on the likes of Andre The Giant, The Big Bossman, and Rowdy Roddy Piper. When the 90's rolled along and ushered in the "Attitude Era", what was known as "Sports Entertainment" took on a new form and focused more on storylines that centered on "realism" and putting the hurt on each other by "extreme means" (aka WCW, ECW, WWE, Stone Cold Steve Austin, and DX). Those were the two sides of wrestling I grew up with, and despite alterations made to tone down the sport due to its risky and controversial nature over the years, it still remains a beloved staple for fans looking to be entertained, and there in lied the basis of the visit of one new promotion that visited my shores last weekend: The World Wrestling Fan Xperience Showcase Tour 2012!

Movie Review: Journey 2: The Mysterious Island

It's been a long time since I've seen a good family-oriented adventure film, and much of the movies nowadays seem to border on more action and drama and less of the excitement and thrill. Fortunately, the start of the year bears fruit in the form of a fantastic voyage, headlined by The Great One himself, The Rock, and Sir Michael Caine - Journey 2: The Mysterious Island! Before getting down to the review, special thanks again goes to Warner Bros. Philippines and SM MoA IMAX Theater for the advanced screening earlier this week! Seeing it in IMAX and 3D was exciting, not to mention getting a bonus screening of The Dark Knight Rises Prologue before the movie proper!
