Based on the true story of Selena, the movie Selena showcases the debut of Jennifer Lopez who turned into one of today's hottest stars on our planet with the best booty (which are insured!) in the industry. As a debut film for her, I personally think that she delivered a great job in impersonating the late Selena and portraying her twisted life. On top of that, the dance choreographies were very much alike, which makes the movie more fantastic when J. Lo started strutting her stuff in just a bra top (No, I ain't a pervert!). The main purpose of the movie is to educate us about the life of Selena, who was murdered by her own fans club's president who have been fraudulently cashing in money. Her stardom might have been short, but with the movie and all the respect that she gets, Selena will always be remembered. R.I.P. ***3/4
Next up, The Prestige deals with the war between two magicians, played by Hugh Jackman and and Christian Bale. The movie was based on the award-winning novel of the same name. Basically, the movie shows how hatred and jealousy leads to fatality. It also somehow shows to us how magicians do their trick using science and technology. Of course, when we're the audiences, we wouldn't notice any of the secrets or the techniques to magic. All my life, I've only seen magic for a couple of times. Yet, I'm very much amused by it. ***1/2
Bond. James Bond. One can call him shapeshifter for he has looked different for numerous times already. In the latest flick, Casino Royale, James Bond is played by the new blond, Daniel Craig. At first, I thought that his predecessor, Pierce Brosnan would have been a wiser choice in playing the role. But having seen the movie proved me wrong. Daniel, to me, rocked the movie better than any previous Bond film that I have seen. Great bodies and beautiful actions made the movie extremely thrilling. Oh, how can I not mention about the Bond girl of the film? Eva Green gained the spotlight as a French actress, who had starred in Kingdom of Heaven as well. On screen, their chemistry wasn't really there. Nevertheless, her presence charmed the screen. ****
