Marvel’s Ant-Man (2015) Review 4/5 Like its premise, the film operates in a smaller scale within the Marvel Cinematic Universe. With exceptional cast, it materializes a film that is still of Marvel standards. A fun-filled adventure that has a heart in all sizes. Ant-Man puts comedy star Paul Rudd in a much bigger role and …

Love Forecast (Tagalized, 2015) Review 2.5/5 A typical romantic comedy film from Korea that has the charm from characters to the familiar story.

Final Girl (2015) Review 1.5/5 What feels like a product of a fantasy of an amateur psychopath is Final Girl. The film is full of glaring plot holes that makes the film stupid and pointless.

The Breakup Playlist (2015) Review 3.5/5 Squeezing in melodramatic confrontation scenes makes the characters feel less authentic and less sincere. But the narrative is constructed decently with the usual Star Cinema formula. The Breakup Playlist is better than the recent Star Cinema films but it still provides inappropriate confrontation scenes and clichéd family story lines …
MAX (2015) 3/5 Unbelievable as it may look as the story progresses, Max means well. A family film that doesn’t just go “awwww” for dog and companion moments but is also a thrilling adventure of a found bond between a boy and a dog. Max has a lot of spirit and heart but you can’t …
