PREVIOUSLY:

The Reader (Light Drama: Kate Winslet, Ralph Fiennes). In this award-winning movie, Winslet is at her best. I hate her character in the movie, though. Hanna Schmidtz has a pride the size of an elephant which deprives her of real happiness and acceptance. The Reader is set in the 1950′s. Expect some sexy scenes.

My Rating:

Shaolin Girl. This movie proves that you can only achieve something if you’re in control of yourself and that kung fu is more than just mastering fighting skills. Unbelievable showcase of martial arts. If you’ve never seen a fight on top of the water, you’ll finally see one here with matching wave-like energies emitting from the bodies of the protagonist and the antagonist.

May Rating:

Gene Generation (Action: Bai Ling). Futuristic and sci-fi themed as it is, this movie will give you an idea of how messy and chaotic our world can be years from now. Here, the love of a sister to her brother will triumph over evil.

May Rating:

Death Race (Action: Jason Statham). Hard-core action is the strength of this movie. Expect a lot of violence, blood and sexy ladies. Jason Statham is my man! He drives like crazy and will drive you crazy with his charms, too.

My Rating:

The House Bunny (Comedy: Ana Farris). Even house bunnies can champion a good cause. Ana Farris of Scary Movie fame will prove just that to you in this sexy comedy that’s full of teenagers and high school activities.

My Rating:

18-year Old Virgin (Comedy: ) Riotous and funny. A girl’s journey to losing her virginity on the eve of her graduation. Raging hormones + booze = good sex. Good intentions + true love = great sex. Enough said.

My Rating:

MOST RECENT:

Thick Thieves (Action-Suspense: Morgan Freeman, Antonio Banderas). If it’s a Morgan Freeman, then the movie has a say. A good combination of trust, betrayal, friendship and robbery also makes this movie a must-see.

My Rating:

Vicky Cristina Barcelona (Light Drama: Penelope Cruz, Scarlet Johansson, Javier Bordem). Love has different meanings to different people. In this movie, you’ll know the signs of an abusive and volatile relationship and how faith or love can be shaken by a mere unmindful act. Highly recommended for romantics with open minds. It has very few characters but very rich story. Love this movie!

My Rating:

Underworld 3. This prequel to the previous two Underworld movies presents a good take on the origin of the unending war between vampires and werewolves. I expected violence and more blood and I didn’t get disappointed.

May Rating:

Wicked Lake (Horror: ). It’s a low-budgeted movie that’s shallow and…never mind.

My Rating:

Edwin and I regularly go to our favorite DVD place (you know where!) to get new supplies. Usually, it’s me who gets to finish watching all the DVDs we bought because my boyfriend is busy playing PSP and online games. Now I’m thinking if I should put up a blog solely dedicated to DVDs and movie reviews. Do you think it’s a good idea? Oh well, I guess I should try to fix my schedule first.
