Movies Galore!!!

Wahahaha, caught 2 movies today, one with my classmates and the other with baby. First caught The Great Raid, which was a hell of a boring movie, except the actual raid itself. It's about a mission to save POWs during WWII in Philippines, against the Japanese and all. Honestly, it didn't make quite of an impact on me, in fact, it was more of a display of the classic American Gung-Ho, since the raid was American's most successful military operation in history. Account for the dropping of the 2 atomic bombs on Japan then. Period.

It was disappointing because I expected more graphic scenes. Like when they were about to execute some POWs as part of punishment, the focus on the POWs was really pathetic. I expected the POWs to like pee on their pants or something, to show how afraid they really are. If I was in their shoes, my gawd... I can't imagine really. It really did freak me out when I thought of war, and how I would take tortures and all IF I ever needed to. I'm not sure if I'm strong enough to actually withstand such mental and physical torture. I think the worse part about the whole war shit is the chance that you might get tortured and suffer, rather than just die in a single gunshot. I hate to suffer, would rather die immediately.

Next up was Skeleton Key with baby. DAMN GOOD SHOW MAN I TELLA YOU. Damn full of twists, and I really enjoyed allowing the movie scare the hell out of me. Baby was extremely adorable, covering her face most of the time, yet still watching it through gaps of her fingers. So cute hehe. <3s her to death! The show, although complicated, was one of the best I've ever watched man. Better than Flight Plan indeed, as baby said in her blog. Man, if you haven't caught it, I say you go watch it please. Damn good. Damn nice!!! I was practically shivering through some scenes, because they were just that exciting. And for your information, there are no ghosts involved. It's more of a thriller than a ghost horror flick. So yeah, it doesn't need to involve ghosts to be scary and exciting. It's thrilling enough as it is. Damn good... I love it. Kate Hudson was fantastic, sound effects were fantastic, Voodoo Magic is fantastic, Baby is fantastic-est though heh!
