Hancock & Sunflower Seeds

Hancock is not the typical superhero story that's action packed. It's more about the character and his life with superhuman powers. Though, it had poor to average reviews. I kinda like the story because there's a twist that is different from the superhero movies I've watched before. Maybe it will have a sequel. The effects of the movie are great. Like always, Will Smith who plays John Hancock, is a hunk and co-star Charlize Theron who is one of my favorite actresses, is a knock-out! If you want to read the plot of the movie, just click here. By the way, as we are watching... my two boys munched happily with this sunflower seeds you see in the photo above. They both love seeds and nuts, that we call "kutkutin". This is what Wikipedia says about this yummy sunflower seeds.

Kung Fu Panda

After weeks of waiting for the husband to ask us if we want to watch this movie, at long last, we watched Kung Fu Panda. A very hilarious movie from start to finish. Po, the big fat panda, made my tummy ached so much from laughing, hehehe! The Furious Five; Tigress, Monkey, Mantis, Viper and Crane, are pretty amazing with their martial arts moves. My kid is acting it out, the kicking and turning! I like the most is the character of Master Oogway, the turtle. He is so wise and gentle. I love what he said to Po, "Yesterday is history. Tomorrow is a mystery. Today is a gift, that is why, it is called a present." One great movie, that is a must to see!

The Forbidden Kingdom

This is the very first movie team up of the two famous martial arts icons, Jet Li and Jackie Chan, both our my favorites. We, my hubby and I wouldn't pass up the opportunity to watch them on the big screen, of course, together with our movie buff son, like us! It was full of action, great moves and funny like the other movies of Jackie Chan. As for for Jet Li, he's funny too but with a mysterious side as always. In the movie, Jackie Chan plays a drunken master while Jet Li is a monk warrior. The story is about an American teenager who loves to watch Kung Fu movies and came across with a magical charmed staff. He travels back in time in which he needs to use the staff to free the Monkey King who was turned to stone. Jet Li and Jackie Chan were the travel tour guide of the "Seeker Of The Prophecy" which is the American teenager. Once in a lifetime movie to see, you should watch it. Highly recomended!
