RABID (2021) ReviewDirected by Erik Matti Watching horror films during the pandemic is the least of my favorite thing to do.

IKAW AT AKO AT ANG ENDING (2021) ReviewDirected by Irene Villamor One thing I like about the movies of Irene Villamor is that it gets loneliness. It knows how to present the loneliness in people.

GAMEBOYS: THE MOVIE (2021) ReviewDirected by Ivan Andrew Payawal First of all, I’m a fan of Gameboys The Series.

THE MITCHELLS VS THE MACHINES (2021) ReviewDirected by Michael Rianda There haven’t been a lot of animated films lately.

ZACK SNYDER’S JUSTICE LEAGUE (2021) ReviewDirected by Zack Snyder I want to start this review sharing to you that I’m happy with the #SnyderCut.
