Movies. Movies. Movies

 Well nobody believes about atom. They don't believe something that they cannot see with their own eyes.  It was a laughing stock for the ignorant until Einstein and Oppenheimer created a giant ball of atoms named Trinity and what happened after that is nobody laugh about it anymore. MILLIONS OF DEATH, massive explosions, burned to ashes Hiroshima and Nagasaki, until now atomic particles still linger in their environment causing cancer of all kinds.

What to tackle now? Hmm..

Let's have movies.

Have you seen BURIED? Imagine yourself being buried alive. BURIED the movie starring Ryan Reynolds as Paul. Paul worked as a driver for relief goods/supply in the Middle East. Their convoy was ambushed by the Muslim rebels and killed some of the people in his convoy including the female UN representative. However, he was kept alive but buried inside the box in the desert and the location he doesn't know. In that box, he found that the rebel had left a cellphone, a lighter, a flashlight and every now and then Paul gets a call from the rebel asking for ransom money. Paul had tried all the people he knew that could help him, his wife, his in-law, his friend, the Embassy and politician until the battery of the cellphone  turned low. This is a shocking story of survival. Sad, very sad story. 

DADDY DAY CAMP. At least this movie is somewhat funny and ridiculous. Who will buy a rundown dilapidated summer camp while the next camp was lavishly looked and created like Playland for the rich. To think that Charlie had been competitor with cheater Lance during their younger years. Now their kids are up to compete for the "Olympiad" Charlie needs his dad Buck who is a high ranking officer in the Army and that give his kid and the rest of the kids the confidence and determination they need. Great movie for kids.

BABY MONITOR MURDER. This movie is about suspense. I don't like giving the synopsis of the whole story. You wont believe who is the murderer in this movie. Keep on guessing.

EDGE OF THE WORLD. 1839. I couldn't believe this movie is based on the true story of British James Brook, Charles and his cousin. The British soldiers had their frigate nestled in the ocean and they used their small boat to reach the shore of the island of Sarawak in Borneo. It was at the height of headhunters massacre that they discovered too many beheaded heads along the way. James met the Datu and his family who is well educated and can speak English. The communication is quite easy for the young Datu who is quite enamored by James. Along the way, one rat pack leading the wrong side who punished natives to sudden abrupt beheading for no other reason at all and became the villain that they cannot control until James got married to a native Bornean princess and James became a Datu leading the village with new imposed laws and regulations. However, the villain never stop at nothing but disrupt the harmony between the people of Sarawak and the British, had the village on fire, killed the younger Datu and murdered and beheaded James Brook's cousin. It was chaos. James Brook and the whole villagers hunted the villains and James beheaded their evil leader. 

ZOMBIES? These three movies deal with zombies: Not for the faint of heart. Lots of screaming.
