MOVIES: Oh look, The Road has an R-13 rating! It must really be scary then! Excited for it, more than for Aswang, whose director, Jerrold Tarog, I admired for the SRR segment with Carla Abellana. No PG horror movie is scary, and that's a fact.

FILM REVIEW: While admirable in its purpose, the Cinema One entry Ka Oryang suffers from a lack of passion between their two leads, Alessandra de Rossi and Joem Bascon. It's hard to believe that Alessandra's character can endure torture to protect her partner, when their love isn't fleshed out enough.

FILM REVIEW: There be Dragons (Roland Joffe, 2011) reminds me of the Filipino film Rosario (Albert Martinez, 2010) in the sense that both of them featured the same framing device--the flashback--that hampered the growth of their respective narratives. The present-day characters should have been cut out of the final edit of both these films.
It's also not hard to like There Be Dragons, but its inherent weakness is the need for viewers to know a bit about the source material (St. Escriva's biography) so they could make sense of the film. The complexity of this material leads to the introduction of many characters that are paper-thin. St. Escriva's numeraries, for instance, constantly appear and disappear out of the film, confusing the uninformed viewer.

CINEMA: I must say that I hated how Nanni Moretti directed his Habemus Papam, but I loved his character there. He was funny in the card playing scene, as well as in the volleyball scene (which was completely pointless), but I cannot forgive him for that preposterous ending.

The camp of Gloria Macapagal-Arroyo today released a series of creepy photos, showing the former president wearing a neck brace. They hoped to gain sympathy for Arroyo’s bid to leave the country. Instead, the Internet sprung into action and did this:
