Brilliant. Bad. A little bit mad. - Emma Stone dons iconic black and white hair as Cruella in first trailer

As announced previously in D23, Emma Stone gives her take on the iconic 101 Dalmatians villain Cruella De Vil in Disney's spin-off film, Cruella, that will soon hit theaters and streaming this 2021.
In this movie, Stone delivers the origins of the famous antagonist maybe before she meets the Dearlys and maybe we'll see how her fascinations with the spotted dogs came to about. The trailer gives a hint on what happened on her younger years, it may be a case of society's disapproval or inacceptance.
 
I think the trailer gives Harley Quinn / Birds of Prey feels in the first impression, starting with innocent looks transforming to the eccentric make ups and fashion. Detaching itself from the usual comedy 101 Dalmatian movies, Cruella gives a darker approach. See the car chases and heist. What do you think? Discuss in the comments below.
For us Disney fans, it will still be an interesting movie and something we can look forward to. It will also be a time to revisit our 101 Dalmatians films, animated or live action. We hope we'll be able to see it in the theaters when all things are okay.

Cruella also casts Mark Strong, Emma Thompson and more. Coming May 2021, directed by Craig Gillespie.

SHAZAM! movie review

It's like breathing fresh air from DC's dark superhero universe. Shazam! marks a wonderful and funny representation than just saving the world and busting villains with incredible superpowers that makes it stand out from the serious tones of Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman and others.
The 14 year old alter ego finds himself in a mystical cave where he acquired his powers to defeat the 7 deadly sins. Discovering himself into an almost-perfect superhero but with a juvenile character with the help of a foster brother unfolds the funny and crazy antics that makes it unique. Captain Sparkle-fingers truly sparks joy and will be remembered by this generation.
Zachary Levi's humor could have fit the part but I think the costume paddings would be so buff and almost unnatural. This thundering superhero flick will have audiences cracking with laughter too. You'll love his foster siblings which are soooo relatable.
Stay until the TWO end credits scenes. Thank you Warner Bros. PH for the exclusive movie invite on IMAX.

Kingsman: The Golden Circle movie review

"Manners maketh man." This quote has strongly been associated with one of the most anticipated movies of 2017, Kingsman: The Golden Circle continues the life of Eggsy (Taron Egerton) as a secret agent of the Kingsman agency. And for all of us who are fans of the franchise, brace yourselves as The Golden Circle has a lot more than what we saw in the trailers. Kingsman: The Golden Circle opens in theaters, September 20 and is best seen on IMAX.


Matthew Vaugh has stitched The Golden Circle from a lot of elements in The Secret Service that we missed. Your eyes will be glued to the screen since the beginning with spontaneous and swell action scenes. From linking the villains and how Gallahan was raised from the dead.

Injected with relatively good dosage of humor with low-key discussions on some "very familiar" society issues, The Golden Circle is never boring to watch. Though it contains a little gruesome clips that are not for the weak stomach, it still maintained its balance with the sleek getup of the agents and hot gears and weaponry.


It also contains some heartbreaks of losing very significant characters but Elton John is one very important cameo that makes this movie beyond guns and skills. Putting my favorite though to Whiskey (Pedro Pascal) with the lasso skills.
