Movie Review...

One of my regimen to ease the tension and relax is ...viewing a movie.
Whenever I view a movie, be it in wide screen, at my PC or a rerun at the TV set, I always look at it as if it's a real life situation and I reflect on it...learning from the dialogs, situations presented and even the consequence of the decisions being made. In the end, I would assess the writer's skill in making a story. The next time I see the same movie, I would be observing more the actors and actresses on how they portray their roles, the director's skill, the technical group on effects and sound, the production group on location and Costumes, and the producer's willingness to spend on all of these :)

This is something I viewed today Mar 9, 2003...something that brought me far...down to memory lane.

Finally, someone put everyone's favourite Englishman who needs a little shove in areas of love together with the goofy queen of romantic comedies. It's about time Hugh Grant and Sandra Bullock share screen time, and this new comedy written and directed by Marc Lawrence, who incidentally wrote Bullock's hit comedy Miss Congeniality, is a great showcase of these two talented, yet goofy thespians.
Grant plays George Wade, a millionaire real-estate developer who hires Bullock's Lucy Kelson, a Harvard Law graduate as his chief counsel. Both are polar opposites in personality - one's a shallow egoist who knows he's charming and doesn't care for the people around him, the other is a social conscious control freak who is extremely smart and has a boyfriend she never sees.

Something that shows what's happening in todays life, of faraway romance, of the beauty of communicating.

Die Another Day another James Bond 007

Synopsis: A high-speed hovercraft chase, through a minefield in the demilitarized zone separating North and South Korea, marks the beginning of James Bond (Agent 007) embarking on his latest mission. From Hong Kong, to Cuba to London, Bond circles the world in his quest to unmask a traitor, and prevent a war of catastrophic proportions. On his way, he crosses paths with the beautiful Jinx and Miranda Frost, who become further entwined in his latest adventure. Hot on the trail of deadly megalomaniac, Gustav Graves and his ruthless right-hand man Zao, Bond travels to Iceland into the villain's lair: a palace built entirely of ice. There he experiences, firsthand, the power of a high-tech weapon. Ultimately, this leads to an explosive confrontation back in Korea, where the mission began.

Apparitions in Kibeho, Rwanda, Africa
Kibeho, Rwanda, 1981 to 1989

Apparition of Mary in Rwanda is among the reminders of God for people to repent.
"...It was said the visionaries at Kibeho were shown terrifying glimpses into the future: a tree in flames, a river of blood, and many abandoned, decapitated corpses. "

Movies watched lately include "Minority Report" starring Tom Cruise and produced by the famous Steven Spielberg
It's action packed, a fascinating sci-fi and certainly a product of Spielberg genius.
