After watching Dallas Buyers Club, I watched I, Frankenstein. If Dallas Buyers Club got me raving about it, I, Frankenstein just made me go: “What the hell did I just watch?” No pun intended whatsoever. If you watched it already, you would know what I mean. But if you haven’t, there’s something to do with hell thus the pun thing there.

Movie Review: Dallas Buyers Club
I have been waiting for this movie to arrive in this small island since last year when I saw a clip of Jared Leto as Rayon. I fell in love and I knew I had to watch it. It’s something I should not miss. And that has got to be the best decision I’ve ever made.
Review: Eleanor & Park
Eleanor & Park by Rainbow Rowell
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
After reading “Fangirl”, I decided to give “Eleanor & Park” a try and it is definitely not a bad decision ever. I’m beginning to think that Rainbow Rowell knows how to write a book that teenagers and young adults can easily relate to.
Movie Review: Her
Golden Globes- and Oscar-nominated movie, Her, certainly gives me a doze of what could possibly happen in the next 5-10 years.
The movie is set in a slightly futuristic world, where people are highly dependent on technology, walking around with earbuds and talking possibly with their computer. Say what? No, really. You just tell the artificial intelligence in your ear to delete an email, read out a new one or send out one, etc etc. Anyway, that’s not the story.
Review: The Cuckoo’s Calling
The Cuckoo’s Calling by Robert Galbraith
My rating: 3 of 5 stars
Well, we all know who Robert Galbraith really is now and let’s not pretend that I didn’t buy this book because of the real writer behind the pseudonym – J.K. Rowling. I love this woman and admire her greatly and so I decided to pick up my first ever crime fiction book after a very long time.
Movie Review: The Legend of Hercules
Happy 2014! It’s been a while since I’ve posted anything on this blog. I shall just admit my laziness and leave it at that.
Anywho, the first movie of 2014 that this girl who never sleeps (not really, I sleep, I do) watched is… The Legend of Hercules. Not much of a surprise or a suspense there since I had the poster up above before I even began the post.
Movie Review: The Hunger Games: Catching Fire
It’s been a while that I actually posted anything on this blog and I’m so sorry for my unplanned hiatus. I do have a reason obviously. Market research industry at this time is pretty busy. But that’s not the point of this post. I am back with a review of a much anticipated sequel to a successful first movie of The Hunger Games franchise, Catching Fire.
I’m currently listening to the soundtrack of the movie just to bring back all the feels I felt while watching the movie. I am trying not to keyboard smash all over this entire review of mine. I am trying to keep myself sane and not fangirl but it is very very hard.
Review: Fangirl
Fangirl by Rainbow Rowell
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
I saw this book in the bookstore and I immediately picked it up because, if you’re a fangirl and you don’t pick up a book called “Fangirl”, you’d be an idiot. I would like to think I’m not and so I did just that. I picked up and read the first 10 pages of the book and immediately fell in love with it.
Review: The Enchantress Returns
The Enchantress Returns by Chris Colfer
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Judging from the book cover, “The Land of Stories: The Enchantress Returns” by Chris Colfer, it seems to be a children’s book and I guess it could be a children’s book, since it is about fairy tales. But the maturity in some of the dialogues would put it in the category of, at least, a young adult book. A six-year-old kid would not understand the meaning behind some of the dialogues in the book. I mean, they would because the words used are simple enough to understand but the meaning behind the words would not reach a young kid until they are old enough to get it.
TV Review: Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D – Eye Spy
The latest episode of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D is, in my opinion, the best yet so far. It was funny and witty with a touch of bad-assness. What’s not to like about it?
