‘Days of the New’ REVIEW: An Intriguing Investigation of Post-Pandemic Absurdity
Keith Deligero's 2021 murder-mystery short divulges little about the details, but gives its audience something to earnestly pine for in a post-pandemic world.
‘The Batman’ REVIEW: A neo-noir mystery that deconstructs a tortured hero
‘The Batman’ creates a desolate environment that inhales fear and exhales vengeance, inviting us to deconstruct an erratic and tortured hero like we’ve never seen before.
‘SWAP’ (2015) REVIEW: A Mediocre, Single-Take Martial Law Experiment
Remton Zuasola's 2015 drama-thriller implicitly examines crime in the backdrop of Martial Law antics while leaving much to be desired.
‘Gusto Kita with All My Hypothalamus’ REVIEW: The Line Between Longing and Obsession
Dwein Baltazar’s 'Gusto Kita with All My Hypothalamus' proves to be a hidden gem within the Philippines’ filmography among the masses. It distinguishes itself from other drama/romance movies with its hint of something supernatural.
‘Paano Kita Iibigin’ REVIEW: The fine line between loving and enabling
How do you begin to love someone who doesn’t know how to love themselves? ‘Paano Kita Iibigin’ attempts to answer that and more in this 2007 romcom film starring Regine Velasquez and Piolo Pascual.
‘Hey Babe!’ REVIEW: When the ‘m’ in romcom stands for misogyny
'Hey Babe!,' like other romcoms, falls under the dilemma of the genre's tendency to be misogynistic. It hides its true nature in "lessons" that don't only serve its plot, but also the patriarchy.
