Tadhana
(2017)

Very heart-warming about Overseas Workers
A very heart-warming and inspiring dramatization of Overseas Filipino Workers who are forced to find jobs outside Philippines and have handful of episodes about dysfunctional families and nice/bad employers who employ the OFWs.

But the script and execution of the characters are exaggerated and hysterical.

Maria
(2019)

Philippines' version of Kill Bill
Similarities:
  • Left the circle of Assassins.


  • Family of murdered by her fellow Assassins.


  • Former Mentor is the Villain
Differences:
  • One carries a Katana, one carries a handful of Handguns & Rifles.


  • Daughter is Murdered, Daughter survives.

Black Panther
(2018)

Tremendous
The Wakanda Kingdom is what Africa would look like if not for the corrupt leaders & a dark history of European oppression. Good amazing cast with good dialogue of African English accent. Mostly West African accent.

The Hangover
(2009)

Realistic in a very funny scenario
A very funny thematic movie about a realist what it can be like to get wild and drunk that can lead you to a very brain damaged hangover which could cause amnesia. to has been over a decade since this movie came out, and this is still very funny.

Tekken
(2010)

Not much of a good story of an adaptation from a game
The plot was not really necessary for something from a game to have something post-apocalypse. The Story was somewhat alright, but it did not really make any sense for something like about Corporations running the World, it could be left for another movie. well, most characters where not included and Anna Williams did not really have a fight scene, except for the Assassination attempt on Jin.

But what really made the movie good was Eddy Gordo was really like the actor Lateef Crowder himself, who is also a Black Brazilian and also a Martial Artist too.

Mortal Kombat
(2011)

An alright web series adaptation
Both seasons have good story plots. Keri Ryan as Sonya Blade was very Kickass. Jai White as Briggs was a tough up. The story of Liu Kang on Season 2 was alright, very similar with Anakin of Star Wars. The Story of Kenshi and Ermac was also amazing too. Overall, this Mortal Kombat Web series was alright. I have played and watched the cutscenes from the games and watched the movies, this one was fantastic.

Across the Sea of Time
(1995)

Awesome Musical Score
I have never watched the movie, but I have listened to the Soundtrack of this movie. So soothing and so touching. Feeling like the music plays on your head while on a honeywmoon.

Bohemian Rhapsody
(2018)

The Best dramatization about the Band
Rami Malek did an absolutely great job of portraying Freddie Mercury. that even his moves and his singing where exactly like his. The Song was a great hit, and the movie itself is a great hit. Nice 2 titles.

Night School
(2018)

Good themes through Comedy of School
This movie shows through comedy and drama of how, no matter what, it is not too late to finish schooling. Every teacher should help a student with problems like disabilities like it was shown the night school teacher got rough on him, in order to out grow his part of his disability.

Crazy Rich Asians
(2018)

Almost the reality of how mega-rich Asians are.
This movie shows how Super-Rich Asians can be. It also shows the kind of culture Asians stand for, and represent in Family values. Michelle Yeoh plays out how good of a mother can be no matter what class or belief you belong to. Love is love no matter what privilege, league or class you belong to, just how it portrays between Constnace Wu and Harry Golding.
