A Year in Pinoy Cinema
Year 2014 is an improvement in
Pinoy Cinema. At least some filmmakers try to break the template trapping the
mainstream cinema. It’s also a year where some books adopt into a film. Wattpad
stories proved to be a financial success when it comes to box office and
television.
CULT
FILM OF THE YEAR
“That Thing Called Tadhana” (Cinema One Originals to be release by Star
Cinema February 2015)
Director: Antoinette Jadaone
Why:
I’ve
never seen this film but I want to see it... ASAP!!!! I heard that there fans
who already watched this quoting their favorite line/s from the film in the
internet. There are also positive feedbacks about this film. I just have to
wait for this by February 2015. Star Cinema will finally releasing this
commercially.
Prediction: It will top the box
office by February. This film will be on top of THE HIGHEST CROSSING INDIE FILM
OF ALL TIME.
MOVIE
THAT TRIES TO BE UNIQUE
“Echoserang Frog” (Scenema Concepts International)
Director:
Joven Tan
Why:
Shalala’s
first starring film is both worst and best. It is worst because of some
technical problems and bad acting. Best because it tries to be different from
all mainstream film. It tries to be Borat or Bruno. It satirizes the making and
staring in a film. There are scenes that I funny. There are some, corny. But
overall, it’s entertaining.
THE
TOP FIVE BEST PINOY FILMS I’VE SEEN IN 2014.
Director: Chris Martinez
Why: Imagine Anne Curtis being fat. Wow! She’s still beautiful. The
twist in the end credits is the one I like most. I still can’t forget it. It
sticks to my mind after seeing this film. It’s funny.
Director: Antoinette Jadaone
Why:
A satire film about being beautiful in modern day. I love the episode of
Angelica
Panganiban,
it’s cute.
Why: Honestly, I still never the
book but this film is the best adaptation of a wattpad story so far. The scene
near Mayon Volcano is majestic.
2.
T’yanak (FDCP)
Why: The original is a much love classic this one is the great
remake. It never failed me. It’s more on emotions than horror. I got surprise in the hospital scene. Judy Ann Santos deserves a best actress trophy
for her role she really is the center of the film.
Director: Irene Villamor & Antoinette Jadaone
Why: This film is my favorite film
of 2014. It reminds me about my teen days, about first love. It reminds me that
love is around us. Cupcake, although she’s the villain is my favorite
character. Inigo Pascual is the most promising lead along with Sofia Andres.
Best Director of
the Year:
Antoinette Jadaone for “Relaks, It's Just Pag-ibig”
Best Actress: Judy
Ann Santos for “T’yanak”
Best Actor: Sid Lucero for “T’yanak”
Ericka Villongco –for “Relaks, It's Just Pag-ibig”
Best Supporting Actor: Vandolf for “ ABNKKBSNPLAko:
The Movie”
THE
TOP FIVE WORST FILMS I’VE SEEN IN 2014
Why: It feels like its rush for Halloween consumption. It’s confused weather it’s a horror or a
drama. But overall it’s boring as hell.
Why: I read the book. The movie adaptation fails me. The book
is better than the film. Better not one of those infidelity films. Watch out,
Eric Gonzales English is bad.
Why: This sequel to the already worst Moron 5 is corny.
Why: Again honestly I still did not read the book. If “She’s
Dating the Gangster” the best wattpad story adaption, this one is the worst. It
invests on a Nadine Lustre/ James Reid love team. It feels rush to
theater. I am hoping for a better sequel.
Worst Supporting Actor: RJ
Padilla for “Sa Ngalan ng Ama,
Ina, at mga Anak”
