Miniseries Review: And Then There Were None
🍌🍌🍌 (BBC MINISERIES) First, Philip Lombard isn’t supposed to be straight. It is implied several times in the book that Lombard is gay though it has not given much focus. So I always picture him as gay, though no matter how decent and manly in action, I don’t buy seeing him having sex with ClaythorneContinue reading “Miniseries Review: And Then There Were None”
Movie Review: 3 Idiots
🍌🍌🍌🍌🍌 A king’s feast for your soul and funny bone. This movie is a triumph, an epic story of friendship and passion. It is humorous and insightful. The kind of ideology that is imparted has never diminished its power despite its goal of making it a bit of everything. It has a musical touch cateredContinue reading “Movie Review: 3 Idiots”
Movie Review: Avengers Endgame
(Non-spoiler) (late upload) 🍌🍌🍌🍌 The battle scene gives me chill. It’s so epic. It reminds me of when Gandalf comes to the rescue on the LOTR or when Sansa and the knights of Vale arrive in support of Jon Snow on GOT except this one is more diverse and superhumanly awesome. And kudos to RussoContinue reading “Movie Review: Avengers Endgame”
Movie Review: The Dark Tower
🍌🍌 It’s a film adaptation of famous book series by the king of horror, Stephen King. The author even hailed it as his magnum opus. Should have been made in the same light as the Lord of the Rings. This movie has failed big time. Blunt. Corny. Dull. The only redeeming quality is the actors’Continue reading “Movie Review: The Dark Tower”

Book Review: Prelude to Narnia Chronicles
Title: The Chronicles of Narnia: The Magician’s Nephew Author: C. S. Lewis 🍌 🍌🍌🍌🍌 In a manner of chronology, The Magician’s Nephew is the first Narnia book. It explains in abundance the creation of Narnia and all its inhabitants and the origin of the Witch.

You wanna see something different and realistic? Like a breath of fresh air? Something so intense and provocative to the bone? Not to mention something gay? Something depressing and beautiful?Continue reading “Philippine Movie Review: 2 Cool to be 4gotten”
Book Review: The Forgotten Feelings
I find it graceless and uncalled for rating a condensed version of a literary work, so I leave it as a secret.The story of Mary Lennox and the secret garden has been loved by many for decades. It’s endearing story of friendship and the magic of positivity is something you’d always want to revisit. GivingContinue reading “Book Review: The Forgotten Feelings”

The story also shows art as the main drive that leadsContinue reading “Book Review: Jude and Noah”
