There are heroes… there are superheroes… and then there’s Hancock
Filipino Neo-Realism at its best. Direk Brillante made sure that he captured the noisy background of road traffic with tricycles and jeepneys blowing their horn. I could go visit the old movie houses in Cubao now and see the exact same thing.
all out meth-induced action. Better watch this on a weekday because after all the action and violence, one may even be relieved of stress. The movie has no signs of it and neither does it have any sense.
Here’s the verdict: OLD PEOPLE SHOULD SEE THIS.
Spy-goof films are supposed to be just about being goof. In Get Smart’s case, it tried to be the scholar of goof with Carell as Magna Cum. Get this, it’s an action/comedy with a twist a romance.
Meet “Fox”. She’s all about guns, tattoos, and a whole lotta bullet bending action. And oh, steamy scenes exist.
FlickSide has great contacts. We have obtained information on what films are to be shown in the Philippines for the whole year.
And there maybe a handful of upcoming movies that are must-see’s, FlickSide would rather announce on what is truly the most anticipated movie of the year.
THE DARK KNIGHT
showing JULY 17
Post-Neo Keanu Reeves stars in a film about the devoted cop getting screwed by the very system that he swore allegiance to. Tom Ludlow (Keanu) is a beleaguered veteran LAPD that is framed for a crime he didn’t commit.
This movie will once again reunite Sean Penn and Emil in a biopic of American politician Harvey Milk…
