Wonka Review

Rating: 4 out of 5.

Who thought we need so much of Willy Wonka that we wished for a sequel? Well, me thought so too! This Christmas, we are gifted another Willy Wonka movie, although this is a prequel story and this tackles the hard-earned beginnings of Willy Wonka. Wonka never started big. He started from nothing to having everything. Because of his mother and his dream of making the best chocolate in the world, he pursued on becoming a chocolatier, creating very unique and out of this world varieties of chocolates.

In 2005, Tim Burton directed the second Willy Wonka movie which was Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. Yes, you read it right, this was the second Wonka movie, starring Johnny Depp. The first movie adaptation of the famous Roald Dahl’s children’s book was in 1971 and it was entitled Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory, starred by Gene Wilder and the third one is the new movie entitled Wonka starring  Timothée Chalamet.

Replacing Chef Chico: Review

There’s so many series that are new to Philippine TV standards but I am so amazed how the cinematography when it comes to Philippine films and TV dramas has gone from average to international standards. Most of the new TV series that are being released this year were actually passing the international standards and one of them is the recent Netflix release, entitled, Replacing Chef Chico.

Starring Alessandra de Rossi, Piolo Pascual and Sam Milby. This is the story of Hain, a filipino contemporary restaurant that serves Filipino traditional cuisine with the fusion of each of the customer’s life stories. The main plot is Chef Chico, played by Sam, was being replaced temporarily by his sous chef, Ella, played by Alessandra after he met an accident, causing him to stay in coma, with the supervision of Raymond, played by Piolo, the consultant that Chico’s parents’ hired to decide with the future of the restaurant as it is facing a fall back in the industry.

Daily Dose Of Sunshine: Review

Rating: 4.5 out of 5.

How well do we know mental health? How aware are we to even try to understand how a mind of a person with mental illness works? This generation had become more aware of what is the importance of mental health and how to take care of it. We now see so many posts, articles and podcasts about choosing a healthy sanity and choosing peace over toxicity, these are just some examples of us choosing to take of our mental health. However, there’s still the stigma when it comes to visiting psychiatrist and focusing on mental health. People think just because you’re seeking medical help for your sanity, it means you’re crazy, which is far beyond the truth.

I have been reading so many books about Psychology, and I had once thought of entering medical school to study the human brain because I, myself, have experienced and felt how extraordinary the human brain is. Our brain can make you cry, laugh, see things, dream things; it is very complex and there’s just so much to explore and learn.

A Time Called You Review: Time Travel Era

Rating: 5 out of 5.

I guess there’s nothing more relatable than wanting to go back in time and choosing to change something you did and expect that everything will be fine eventually, like who wouldn’t want coming back in time, trying not to choose the ex who hurt you but instead choose someone else you’ve been with before you even chose your ex, right? Or maybe right now you are thinking that maybe you could’ve just choose that shitty apartment rather than spending more money into renting an expensive one only to find out that you will just get fired a month after and be homeless, like who wouldn’t want to try that another option that maybe your life could’ve been a lot better.

Totally Killer Review: Keep Slasher Movies Coming!

Rating: 4.5 out of 5.

There’s so many movies coming out this October and I am more excited with Slasher movies because I believe that Slasher movies are the GOAT of all the horror movies. I grew up watching Halloween, Friday the 13th, Child’s Play, Nightmare on the Elm Street, SCREAM and many more. These movies were hit during the 90s and I think these are the core reason why I loved watching films and telling people what I love about it.

October means Halloween and Halloween means more horror/thriller/suspense movies. Well, just in time for October, a new movie has been released on Amazon Prime entitled Totally Killer. This is a story of a teenager using a Time Machine to go back in time and save her mother and other girls who were killed by the legend serial killer, Sweet Sixteen Killer.

One Piece Review

Rating: 5 out of 5.

For those who love anime especially the ones watching anime series in the 90s, we all know who Monkey D. Luffy is and One Piece is not just an anime because this one was released originally as a manga in 1997 and then it got released as an anime cartoon in 1999 with more than 1000 episode, One Piece is still on going. What makes it more interesting is that not only the 90s kids are loving One Piece but also the Gen Zs. Created by Eiichiro Oda, this is one of the longest running anime which actually consists of 1000 plus episodes (Aside from Pokemon, Naruto, Yu Gi Oh!, Doraemon, Shin Chan and Detective Conan).

This year, a year where most of the Anime’s are getting their live action adaptation, they now finally released the much awaited One Piece Live Action. Produced by Netflix, The One Piece is actually following the start of the original manga series and the cartoon series, which means, it is just an adaptation, it is a close look to its real story. Despite the numerous comments from people not liking a live action of books, comics and other written artworks, the One Piece is actually somehow the closes to its real deal.

The Nun II Review

Rating: 4 out of 5.

How many movies are we going to watch until we answer every question on each movie that they release each year? Well, it’s not often that we get them answered actually, especially horror films. It’s always either they have some continuation or they just don’t reveal the whole story for the viewers to get some cliff hanger which I really hate as a movie reviewer because it doesn’t give me any conclusion. Well, to be particular, there were too many installments of Exorcist, Insidious, and Conjuring that were released each year and we just cannot catch up. It’s like a Marvel Cinematic Universe.
