SCOUTS GUIDE TO THE ZOMBIE APOCALYPSE movie review

If you're still into that Halloween mood and more if you're a zombie flick fan, here's another movie that will not scare you but will gross you out up to your funny bone. SCOUTS GUIDE TO THE ZOMBIE APOCALYPSE is kind of another teen flick with the brain-eating twist.

Who knows that being a scout for life can come in handy during a zombie wave? Scout trio, Tye Sheridan (Ben); Logan Miller (Carter), and Joseph Morgan (Augie) comprise a perfect combo for survival. A leader, a funny guy and a die-hard scout makes a good formula for the group. Adding the love interest (Halston Sage) and a hot bad-ass sidekick (Sarah Dumont), what more can you ask for? In this movie, we will be served with life hacks only a true scout will know.

The movie is a great laugh. Catching the suspense more than that of Zombieland, "Scouts" gave it a younger feeling, good for a teen flick but contains mature materials that are very appealing to adults.

SCOUTS GUIDE TO THE ZOMBIE APOCALYPSE is Rated R-16 Without Cuts and opens across the Philippines on Nov 11. See the trailer below:

ALICE THROUGH THE LOOKING GLASS teases with trailer

Alice returns to Underland for a new mission. Now to save the Mad Hatter and Underland from destruction of time. "Alice Through the Looking Glass" is the sequel to the Tim Burton and Disney hit, Alice in Wonderland, which features our beloved Wonderland characters. The movie is set for release in summer 2016 (May 27).

“Alice Through the Looking Glass” reunites the all-star cast from the worldwide blockbuster phenomenon, including: Johnny Depp, Anne Hathaway, Mia Wasikowska and Helena Bonham Carter along with the voices of Alan Rickman, Stephen Fry, Michael Sheen and Timothy Spall. We are also introduced to several new characters: Zanik Hightopp (Rhys Ifans), the Mad Hatter’s father and Time himself (Sacha Baron Cohen), a peculiar creature who is part human, part clock.

Alice Kingsleigh (Wasikowska) has spent the past few years following in her father’s footsteps and sailing the high seas. Upon her return to London, she comes across a magical looking glass and returns to the fantastical realm of Underland and her friends the White Rabbit (Sheen), Absolem (Rickman), the Cheshire Cat (Fry) and the Mad Hatter (Depp), who is not himself. The Hatter has lost his Muchness, so Mirana (Hathaway) sends Alice on a quest to borrow the Chronosphere, a metallic globe inside the chamber of the Grand Clock which powers all time. Returning to the past, she comes across friends – and enemies – at different points in their lives, and embarks on a perilous race to save the Hatter before time runs out. See the trailer below:

THIS IS OUR YOUTH review

Do you remember how things went when you are younger? When you just lay down on your bed and procrastinating instead of being productive, reflects how the new play THIS IS OUR YOUTH by Red Turnip Theater mirrors the young culture with drugs, sex and even the young life as portrayed by Jef Flores, Nicco Manalo and Cindy Lopez. As the three have justified the characters made by Kenneth Lonergan, the message is really appropriate to share with the youth today.

Having it staged at the A Space_Gallery in Makati, it was another unusual experience to really see it on the eye-level with the actors. The room is already the stage so you can sit comfortably on the bean bags casually and just watch like you're inside your own room. This is very new for me and different and I really got to enjoy it. If you can lie down and hug a bean bag, I could have done it myself. The technicals are really setting the mood for the actors and the audience as well. Lighting is successful to show daytime and nighttime to the set amazingly.

As for the actors, the three are perfectly cast. You'll be amazed with Nicco Manalo and Jef Flores flawlessly deliver their lines despite there's no technical enhancement due to the small stage space. Their comedic timings are like watching a memorable episode of FRIENDS and the good vibes are at it. Cindy is a perfect partner for Nicco but I think she could improve and relax with her scenes with him. But they really do work out on stage.
