New Movies this Week

Better late than never; RESIDENT EVIL: AFTERLIFE was released last Friday, but it was not available in 3D. It is only this week that the 3D version of this movie is available. There really is nothing special about this movie; many may even consider it a bad movie; it is pretty much heavy on the B-movie popcorn factor which may upset critics and bore some audiences. But with the 3D technology used, it makes the movie worth watching. After all, many audiences may wanna watch it just for the 3D, may it be a dumb film or not.

What's fresh this week is GOING THE DISTANCE, which is the romantic comedy starring Drew Barrymore and Justin Long. It's story is basically about the ups and downs of a long distance relationship. And then there's BAD SPIRITS which its original international title is UNDER THE MOUNTAIN, it is a 2009 film based on the 1979 novel by New Zealand author Maurice Gee, about a pair of teenage twins travel of Auckland to stay with relatives after the death of their mother. There, they are contacted by a strange man from their past, who reveals to them a great secret hiding beneath the volcanoes of the countryside. Since the movie is released in 2009, a DVD copy of it is already available in various sources. 

On extended screening is SA 'YO LAMANG which is something to watch in case you have not watched it. We have two strong and reliable film reviews that strongly recommend this movie [REVIEW 1, REVIEW 2]. It really is a Pinoy movie to be proud of.
