DEATH OF TRADITIONAL CINEMA: ENGLISH ONLY PLEASE (Dan Villegas, 2014)
http://deathoftraditionalcinema.blogspot.com/2015/01/english-only-please-dan-villegas-2014.html
DEATH OF TRADITIONAL CINEMA. Reel views. Real reviews. Saturday, January 3, 2015. ENGLISH ONLY PLEASE (Dan Villegas, 2014). ENGLISH ONLY PLEASE, the new film by Dan Villegas (MAYOHAN), from a script by Antoinette Jadaone (THAT THING CALLED TADHANA, SIX DEGREES OF SEPARATION FROM LILIA CUNTAPAY) benefits greatly from the onscreen chemistry of its two charming leads, who give life to the story's playfulness and sincerity.

DEATH OF TRADITIONAL CINEMA: November 2014
http://deathoftraditionalcinema.blogspot.com/2014_11_01_archive.html
DEATH OF TRADITIONAL CINEMA. Reel views. Real reviews. Tuesday, November 18, 2014. THE BABYSITTERS (Paolo O'Hara, 2014). Official Entry, 2014 Cinema One Originals. Or are they paying for their mistake to even keep the kidnapped child in the first place? As the film enters the second act, things spiral out of control. Logic is thrown out of the window. Rod’s disgust for Ben is evident, but why keep him all these years? As a favor to his better half? Due to his conscience, perhaps? When Ben is returned to ...

DEATH OF TRADITIONAL CINEMA. Reel views. Real reviews. Monday, March 24, 2014. THE TOP 8 WORST FILMS OF 2013. So this list does not include the likes of GROWN UPS 2, or SCARY MOVIE 5 which I already knew were going to rob me blind, hence I did not bother to see them. In this list, you will see some familiar titles, and even some surprise ones! As always, your comments are and should be kept to yourselves! No, I'm just kidding, just keep them coming. HORROR ROLL # 6. This film screams "SHAMELESS ADVERTISI...

DEATH OF TRADITIONAL CINEMA: INTO THE WOODS (Rob Marshall, 2015)
http://deathoftraditionalcinema.blogspot.com/2015/03/into-woods-rob-marshall-2015.html
DEATH OF TRADITIONAL CINEMA. Reel views. Real reviews. Sunday, March 15, 2015. INTO THE WOODS (Rob Marshall, 2015). For a film that is headlined by much star power, INTO THE WOODS is surprisingly dull, joyless, and overlong. The fact that the film adaptation is directed by the same person who wowed us 10 years ago with the Oscar-winning CHICAGO is hard to swallow. And who here thinks that Johnny Depp seemed out of place in this movie? Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). THE GHOSTS OF WHAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN.

DEATH OF TRADITIONAL CINEMA: July 2014
http://deathoftraditionalcinema.blogspot.com/2014_07_01_archive.html
DEATH OF TRADITIONAL CINEMA. Reel views. Real reviews. Saturday, July 26, 2014. ONLY LOVERS LEFT ALIVE (Jim Jarmusch, 2013). How to make a vampire love story without cheese and fluff indeed? It's a reflection on existence really, as Adam (Tom Hiddleston) grows weary of the futility of living. In fact, he goes as far as to order a very special bullet made of strong wood, telling his human acquaintance Ian (Anton Yelchin) that it's for a "special project". A continent away, in Tangier, Eve (Tilda Swinton) ...

DEATH OF TRADITIONAL CINEMA: April 2014
http://deathoftraditionalcinema.blogspot.com/2014_04_01_archive.html
DEATH OF TRADITIONAL CINEMA. Reel views. Real reviews. Monday, April 21, 2014. SHORT TERM 12 (Destin Daniel Cretton, 2013). At a foster care facility for troubled teens, Grace (Brie Larson) works as a line staff, maintaining order and making sure the youths under her watch do not escape the premises, or worse, slit their wrists with sharp objects, say scissors or a shard of glass. One thing is for sure, every anecdote in the movie is worth listening to, and more often than not, they will break your heart...

DEATH OF TRADITIONAL CINEMA: September 2014
http://deathoftraditionalcinema.blogspot.com/2014_09_01_archive.html
DEATH OF TRADITIONAL CINEMA. Reel views. Real reviews. Monday, September 29, 2014. DEMENTIA (Perci Intalan, 2014). A boat approaches toward a huge slab stone of an island, the rock solid formations commanding a visual dread of the unknown. The boat docks, and we see the familiar face of Nora Aunor disembarking from the vessel. At the onset of DEMENTIA, Perci Intalan readily lays the groundwork for a thriller that benefits greatly from its picturesque location. Clearly, Mara is the key to solve the riddle...
