free-dome

independence weekend. long weekend. i had to enjoy cos i know everything will be "eventful" from now on hehehe since the President has the authority to declare official holidays, you may declare June 12 as a holiday and hold an independence celebration but were you ever curious about this day? it was only yesterday when it brought to my attention about Philippine Independence Day so before meeting up with friends, googled it again and read some bunch of facts about it at wala akong panahon mag-lecture dito. cos nung friday night, it was Persian night with closest friends so obviously i did not pay any attention that it was independence day na the next morning. so before ending some "time of independence" kasi hinde na jobless hehehe i watched 3 mainstream Hollywood films this week. Killers, The Karate Kid and The A-Team. for The Killers, the movie does have a couple of punch lines but with lousy script talaga. Ashton Kutcher and Katherine Heigl play an oddly disjointed pair of lovers, partners and reluctant assassins but disappointed lang ako on both counts, unfolding as a series of ideas and cliches borrowed from movies like True Lies, Mr. and Mrs. Smith and others. next is The Karate Kid, crowd-pleaser, featuring star in the making, Will Smith's son Jaden Smith. while this remake is glossier, the original is better and good stories usually get told more than once, and even on the second go around this one's a winner. bitin nga lang ako sa competition scenes. lastly The A-Team, it was entertaining packed with thrilling action sequences and zany and not characters that never take themselves too seriously. the shootouts, explosions, fights and corrupt government and military s all ultimately blend together. aylabet mhen!
