SIX DEGREES OF SEPARATION FROM LILIA CUNTAPAY movie review

it's a pleasure to see a movie which makes a character. just as Six Degrees of Separation from Lilia Cuntapay awards her persona in this film, it also exposes some things that happen in the society as it was manifested in the industry she belongs.

the whole movie is a journey. and she aims to make herself known as an actress and not just a scary women often playing as a witch in horror films. though it was a given fact and she has accepted it, i think she wanted more recognition and acceptance. and everyone is with her in having the attention she needs. from the development and to the people she would like to thank, people will be engaged in filling up the blanks.

and with her life, there is also ups and downs. she has established her image in her showbiz career as a witch, falling as the only peg of scare and has stayed there for a long time. with her efforts and passion for what she's done and been doing, the current generation of film makers has been thinking too commercialized and not putting up the real professional and great talents. but in spite of her seniority in the craft, she still puts on respect on authority in the movie, her director.

her story would define most of the people who are striving for a pat in the back. and this movie is a sure great tribute for her. kudos to the film makers behind this, not just giving Lilia Cuntapay the spotlight but to address many issues.

007 JAMES BOND SKYFALL movie review

James Bond fans will never get disappointed seeing SKYFALL, the latest installment from the James Bond franchise. as Daniel Craig reprises the role, this movie takes him back to go to basics.

the story starts with a chase as Bond tries to get a drive which contains very important information on national security.

extremely difficult stunts crashing into an entire Istanbul, until they get onto a train where the manual fight is done. i was brought back to Taken 2 where i saw the roof chase. the first half of the movie shows his weaknesses. he'll get shot by another MI6 agent as directive of M (Judy Dench). of course, everything has a reason but it was not expected by the whole MI6 team.

with that escape, M's loyalty to the state would be questionable and has rose suspicions even with 007. and as 007 trusted, he has to track where this will be used and for him to save M from anything that might put her in danger.

as i've said that James Bond goes back to basics, we will not see any highly sophisticated gadgets and weapons. a sexy girl will still be available but it won't be very necessary in the story, though it was a little helpful.

007 SKYFALL which opens today is directed by Sam Mendes under Metro Goldwyn Mayer and Columbia Pictures.

007 SKYFALL is directed by Sam Mendes under Metro Goldwyn Mayer, distributed by Columbia Pictures.
