KUNG FU PANDA 2 movie review

in sequel to the action packed beginnings of the Kung Fu Panda, Po (Jack Black) fulfills another destiny as the Dragon Warrior fighting against the greed of an evil peacock, Lord Shen (Gary Oldman), who's up to use the power of the great invention of fireworks.

Lord Shen wants to rule over China with the amusement of fireworks. and he will use this to break those who wish to stop him. prophecies foretold that a creature in black and white will destroy him and will bring back peace in all of China.

as much as our hero is capable to defeat the forces that protect Lord Shen, Po struggles in the memory of his origins. from this segment, we are traced back on how he was left in the custody of Mr. Ping (James Hong). he wants answers to be given to him and that stops him from fighting the only source which is Lord Shen himself.

but Master Shifu's (Dustin Hoffman) teaching are just in time. focus and inner peace are the key to victory of the defenders of justice. this helped Po in accomplishing his destiny. with the help of the Furious 5 Tigress (Angelina Jolie), Mantis (Seth Rogen), Monkey (Jackie Chan), Crane (David Cross) and Viper (Lucy Liu), they have saved the Masters of Kung Fu (Jean Claude Van Damme, Victor Garber) and all of China.

we will be amazed by new Kung Fu moves by Po and touched by his life story. the cutest panda you will ever see stuffing his mouth with more food and awesomeness. for a short running time of just 90 minutes, you will be completely satisfied on the pacing and story lines. you will be asking for PART 3!

Kung Fu Panda 2 will be shown in Philippine theaters and IMAX 3D starting May 26, 2011 by Dreamworks Pictures. distributed by United International Pictures.

PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN 4 movie review

Captain Jack Sparrow (Johnny Depp) is off to his new quest and now to search for the fountain of youth in the fourth installment of Pirates of the Caribbean 4: On Stranger Tides which opens today at cinemas nationwide. brought to us by Walt Disney and produced by Jerry Bruckheimer.

a new treasure hunt is on from the valid reason for the existence of the fountain of youth. and now, Jack Sparrow is off to get his lion's share of the fountain. but he has to be with the crew of Queen Anne's Revenge which is led by the feared Captain Blackbeard (Ian McShane). his past lover, Angelica (Penelope Cruz), also joins them in the quest.

in search of the fountain, they will encounter deceiving mermaids and long, difficult jungle trails. at the end is the treasure that can bring eternal youth and power. as others have also made their own expeditions, it was a struggle of who comes first. not only a race but also a greed on religion. Spanish expedition who came to the cave of the fountain of youth had other beliefs. thus, they destroyed the sanctuary and the banished the fountain forever.

i think this movie lacks action sequence, weird sea creatures and amazing scenes and effects. but it can stand alone from the previous Pirates movies. mainly centered on Jack Sparrow as he was the lead character. costumes and make up are all good especially with Blackbeard. as drawn in Spongebob Squarepants, they really look very much alike. there is a slight unnecessary content on the movie. just as i thought that they will look back on the love story of Jack Sparrow and Angelica but it was something else.

check out Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides showing in all cinemas. brought to us by Walt Disney Pictures International.

hunger is a major problem worldwide. all your faculties will not work well with an empty stomach. lucky for us who don't experience extreme hunger, we have at least a little muffin, and even go for a costly frapp or coffee and have a chitchat with friends. with money to spend, our problem is to choose what to eat, what to drink, where to eat. but what about those whom we don't know? we don't realize that there are a lot of people who think if they have something to eat or if they can survive another day. researches have shown that there are 1 out 6 children go to school hungry resulting to poor performance in school. and levels have been increasing that most kids do not graduate from school. worse, they die in the middle of hunger. fighting hunger is one of the millennium development goals of the United Nations which include the Philippines. and as one with the world, the special unit of UN fighting against hunger, World Food Program, has initiated a campaign to address MDG #1: Eradicate extreme poverty and hunger. this initiative is called Walk the World which goes for 6 years already worldwide. a simultaneous walk and run against hunger from 5AM of May 29, 2011 at the SM Mall of Asia Grounds in Pasay City invites all running enthusiasts who advocate the eradication of hunger and to help people improve their lives by eating healthy. there are three categories in which a person/group can join: 3K - Open Category, Php 250, with event shirt, starts at 6AM 5K - Men/Women's Categories, Php 500, with race kit, singlet and baller ID, starts at 545AM 10K- Group Category, Php 10,000, with race kit, singlet, baller ID, button pins and team plaque, starts at 530AM see last year's video of Walk the World featuring World Food Program Ambassador KC Concepcion who joined hundreds of people in the walk.

 

Proceeds will go to the feeding program in Mindanao where KC had immersed and firsthand witnessed the situation. the concentration in Mindanao is not an easy task that's why we have to help the World Food Program deliver to the needs of the people in that area. You can also do your part even if you cannot attend the Walk on May 29th.
