My Movie Review: The movie is very unexpected took me by surprise the way everyone dies in this whack everything's gone wrong those hilarious candid moments make this a chef's kiss:) All My Friends Are Dead is bold and so fresh breaking the boundaries of a typical teen-thriller no survivors required only one just barely getting by what a killer such savage I like dwell on it:) This one give its audience a different take on the turn of events took place like inspector police point of view seeing this in a different light like a crime scene but what's cool about it we have a inside look in such all-nighter' mood even it involves dying I didn't felt the dark motives just lit! One of the best films which contain humor, thrill, love, sex, pain, hatred, heaven and hell, must watch film to get thrilling experience much better than expected of course it is Polish movie but threads joined nicely so worth your time still serving a violent, raunchy, and complete utter chaos in such entertaining black comedy whirlwind have fun and learn to be mindful on things:)

Movie News: Netflix’s All My Friends Are Dead is a Polish horror-comedy about young idiots who do stupid things that spiral out of control over the course of one fateful New Year’s Eve. It’s stylish, but style alone doesn’t make a movie worth watching; it’s audacious, but audacity alone doesn’t make a movie; it’s raunchy, but raunch alone doesn’t make a movie; it’s gory, but gore alone doesn’t you know. If all these elements come together, then hooray, but if they don’t, well, no time for love, Dr. Jones. Jan. 1. A doofus rookie detective awaits outside a crime scene. All My Friends Are Dead is garish two slogs, a trudge and an eternity-and-a-half leading to a stoopid and loud climactic eruption of blood, flames, bodily fluids and American hair metal. The film features amusing orificial violations, dim homage to The Shining, characters whose action generally approximate that of recognizable human behavior. I describe these elements with as much objectivity as I can muster so you can determine whether the movie successfully hangs or markets itself. Should you stream or skip the Polish horror-comedy? Stream it! 53.7%

TRAVEL TO PLACES: PHILIPPINES-- LITTLE VIGAN

My Personal Experience: I went to Little Vigan in Gapan on Sunday this year October 10, 2021, together with my neighbors and all of their family! We went there to see the fuzz about in capturing the lights along the street and we're please on how we can do much in this lil space:) Tagpuan sa Lumang Gapan is extension of past and heritage as it became super hit this times!

Little Vigan

Little Vigan of Gapan just lies across the street from the Virgen La Divina Pastora Church! These are row of ancestral houses that did not immediately caught my attention back. It was 2017 I just snap photos of the ancestral houses since it wasn’t as extensive as compared with those in Taal and Vigan. Curious of what stories these structures might have seen through the years. I left Pampanga at around 5am in this solo bike trip. It took me 52 kilometers passing by the towns of Sta. Ana, Arayat, Cabiao, San Isidro before reaching Gapan City. There’s a lot of well-preserved ancestral houses all around the country. Built mostly during 1900s by prominent families, the Antillean style house were lasting legacies now of the Spanish rule in the country!!

My Movie Review: The movie is tense builds a strong sense of foreboding from the beginning as take place almost entirely across the murk stretch of one cold night' unexpected turn ahead! Below Zero is a Spanish Action Thriller that dwells on Martin a National Police Corps officer transferring into a new precinct as his first assignment to drive an armored prisoner transport rig along with his new partner, Montesinos in the observation area in back and each prisoner locked in an individual compartment but things doesn’t take long for this operation to go south:) What makes it great is how straight forward and intense it is for an suspense tale backed with some solid action sequences and engaging even occasionally stumbles with its story it does a brilliant job of keeping you on your toes to come' no matter what twist it rise above the cold:) The journey is quite a ride even the fog of unease clears it will surprise you in the end as pull through one strong punch only for acute violence to surface in its place as Below Zero begins its fearsome and claustrophobic hurtle down a silent road, destined for an unknowable demise!

Critic Reviews: Below Zero flirts with character depth and shocking brutality, but doesn't go all-in on either. The result is dark, pulpy fun that feels like it should get around to pulling off something truly audacious, but never does. Gory but fun thriller has strong violence, language, nudity. Not a bad cross-up of "Con Air" and "Assault on Precinct 13" on paper and director Lluís Quillez generates decent atmosphere on a limited budget. But there's also paucity in the script, which builds to disappointing revelations and limp subtext. Below Zero builds a strong sense of foreboding from the beginning. The film's playing the usual mass-market beats on the way to a relatively perfunctory ending designed not to split opinion; there are bumps on the road along the way, but the film more or less gets where it's going without much fuss. Led by a talented batch of actors that made. Below Zero occasionally stumbles with its story, but it does brilliant job of keeping your heart' on the edge of your seat! This is a highly suspenseful and cerebral thriller, filled with twists, including an unexpected and breathtaking denouement, in its final part!

My Movie Review: The movie is an upgrade story tell belongs to the class of cinema which is being told by a breed of not-so-Indian story-tellers who seems to understand Indian problems:0 The White Tiger is surprise hit as a common man struggle from rags to riches shock us on how he did it is always a fascinating tale specially when it's related to Indian diaspora where caste inequality is still existing after thousand of years of oppression plus leave a lasting impression:) In his world its dangerous to live and trust someone rather than self its eat or be eaten almost delicious to watch the undeniable wit and guts to do this his character's choices can be difficult to digest, but Adarsh Gourav is great in this smart, socially conscious satire, which realistically blurs the lines between good and evil, I just love angst and clever motive's it entails all through!

Critics Consensus: Well-acted and beautifully made, The White Tiger distills the strengths of its source material into a grimly compelling drama. Frustratingly naive one minute and coldly calculating the next, Gourav manages to make Balram likeable for the duration of the film. If you're looking for a Friday night movie to while away a few lockdown hours - The White Tiger is the perfect choice. Any hope or salvation The White Tiger offers is laced with a drop of arsenic, and there are certainly no Bollywood dance numbers to lift your spirits. Through climactic nod to Naipaul's merciless depiction of underdeveloped India, no matter how fortunate individuals might escape, Bahrani's The White Tiger subverts the standard-issue poverty porno. The White Tiger is a kinetic excursion into darkness with Balram as our charismatic guide. Directed by Iranian-American filmmaker Ramin Bahrani, the film is a breeze despite some tired clichés. It ends up as an insider's take on corruption and caste and class-divides in India... Balram's tale is rich and ruthless enough for both approaches, and for any country built on a premise of one class eating another the impression one get with this is of a film that's too big for its own good:)
