THE WOLVERINE movie review

it was a great privilege to see the latest mutant movie The Wolverine before it hits the theaters. this newest flick shows us Logan's (Hugh Jackman) vulnerability, physical and emotional and how he rises stronger than ever before.

living at 3 generations in Japan, Logan is summoned by the person he saved during the war. upon death of who he trusted as a friend, he discovers plans that will drive him to his mortality which he wanted more. this to catch up to his ever-love Jean Grey who troubles him every time he sleeps. evenmore, to protect great inheritance passed on to younger generation. confronting forces that prevent him from saving the sole heir to the riches, he discovers he is lured in to a trap that will make him choose to live as a mortal.

the action filled movie deliberately showed us the Wolverine's power, strength and vulnerability in one screen. following big fight sequences, especially the bullet train scene, providing more entertainment is the humor factor that goes after. the stranger Logan has to learn many about the culture of the place he's in. making him more human like we never knew.

villains Viper, the Silver Samurai were really neat however i didn't feel much about Viper. villains use each other for one's benefit. it would be mistaken he will be Poison Ivy or somebody else until she sticks her tongue out.

Viper (Svetlana Khodchenkova)

in general, i liked The Wolverine and surely i recommend that everyone watch it. may it in 3D or 2D, the story is really amazing and fight scenes give really much attention to our hero. it was not even tiring to see and you'll be waiting so much more. (a sequel maybe?)

just a piece of advise, don't go yet when the movie is done. you have to stay a little during the credits for something to watch out for.

opening July 25 worldwide, directed by James Marigold for 20th Century Fox, distributed in the Philippines by 20th Century Fox Philippines.

an heir is born! Royal Baby watched by millions

4:24PM of July 22, 2013, the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, Prince William and Princess Kate Middleton welcomes the 8lbs, 6oz baby boy at the St. Mary's Hospital in London, United Kingdom.

the whole world at watched, the gender of the baby was never announced in public until the baby is born. thus the birth of the new heir to the throne of his grandfather, Prince Charles and new-dad Prince William, made people betting.

the Royal Palace was happy of the new addition to the family and of course the wellness of the birthing of Catherine.

all everyone is waiting for now is the announcement of the name and the presentation of photos or the baby itself for public viewing. it would be a very exciting event but very difficult for the securities of the Royal Palace to keep the privacy of the family for now. but i would like to send my regards and well wishes now to the baby. i wonder how would the couple choose the name? would they follow traditional royal names like Albert, Phillip or others? or would it be more of a celebrity like? i remember David Beckham sent his interest and pushes that the couple names the baby after him being sports fans themselves. but who knows? :)

preparations are now on at Buckingham Palace in welcoming the royal baby. gun salutes and great feasts await.
