Sex and the City 2

It was awesome! I finally had the great movie I was looking for this year. I had a ton of laugh while watching it. If you do not watch this you'll miss a lot.

You know part 1 had Carrie played by you know who and Big played by that big guy who almost didn't make the film got married right? Well they got into an arrangement of having their kind of relationship. Carrie did put it into her novel too and that kinda got the irk of her readers and lots of reviews. Lots of problems on their setup and unclear conversations between them was getting Carrie stressed.

Samantha Jones was there and had a change of lifestyle thanks to a book she read. She was all creams, estrogen shots and supplements. She went to a premier together with her previous boyfriend turned actor and met a sheik from abu dhabi. She was asked to promote for the city too so she was invited to that place after a while with the condition that she brings her friends with her there. Disaster struck when she couldn't bring her creams and supplements with her. That's why there goes menopause! ha-ha! It was the start of her swearing and hummus eating afterwards but it didn't really have an effect. Anyway, they were all treated to life's best things from 4 solo going vehicles to having their own butlers and a grand hotel room that spelled 22 thousand dollars a night for it. It had its own bar, kitchen and it would be an understatement to call it a palace.

I was also really ecstatic the time that I saw they did not tone down on fashion. It was all eye candy as they sported the belly dancing like attires for the Abu Dhabi scenes. I like the 80's inspired flashbacks also in the beginning, that was really a fun way to start everything! hahahah!

Conflicts: Carrie saw Aidan in Abu Dhabi, they had dinner and kissed. She told Big.... and the sad things continued. Hurt Big BIGTIME! but they patched things up when she got back to New York.

Charlotte was living in hell because of the kids.

Miranda was there to help everyone. Showed Charlotte she went through that also. She was translating for everyone haha!

Samantha had sex on the beach and almost got locked up in Abu Dhabi prisons hahaha. She threw condoms on the streets at the irk of men in robes and muslim clerics.

It was a really good movie, I would really recommend this to anyone who loved the series in HBO and the first movie. This is a very good sequel! Awesome!

I'm giving this 5 KUMAGS out of 5! The perfect movie for this summer's end!

World War II Veterans Apply for Equity Benefits

Over 26,000 World War II Veterans applied for equity benefits which was passed by Barrack Obama together with the stimulus package. He has pronounced that this should never be delayed because they are some who are sick and dying. From what I have heard this will amount to about 9,000 dollars or about 432,000 pesos so this is a huge payment for those who almost lost their lives in that fight. That amount is only for those who are in the Philippines. For those who are in the US, I think I heard that it would amount to about 15,000 dollars... which I hope I am not mistaken.

My Grandpa is also one of those who will get benefits since he served that war and got POW'd even. I just hope they pay what is due them. Good thing Obama knows his priorities and these veterans have paid enough I think. Giving them this is actually a little too late but its good at least that they gave it... confusing as that may sound its just good...

US Ambassador to the Philippines Kristie Kenney said that this number will increase in the coming days. I like this US Ambassador because she is so down to earth. Today,they are continually processing the papers of these veterans and I hope it would all be given soon.

KUMAGCOW MOOOOVIE REVIEWS : DESPERADAS 2 (All we need is Love)

I had a blast last night when I went out with my friends to watch this Comedy film from the Metro Manila Film Festival called DESPERADAS 2 (All we need is Love). This is a sequel to the same film title last year which I watched with a different girlfriend lolz. It was nice to say at least becaus I was smiling at times and that's pretty hard to do in my books. Ruffa Gutierrez, Rufa Mae Quinto, Iza Calzado, Marian Rivera along with their fifth long-lost sister, Ogie Alcasid star in this very funny movie. I recommend you watch it!



Why you may ask?! I found it hilarious for one and you should never miss Ogie's role. That was the best! Ruffa (Isabella) is a non committing lady that tries a skin care business and made everybody else ugly. She was jailed in the last bit but bailed out by Ogie's character Luga Luda who is a princess of some filthy rich foreign island and kingdom in Africa. Rufa Mae (Patricia) had a rich boyfriend/politician that only made her into a bag lady for gambling/jueteng operations. The shopping was not that bad though... everybody enjoyed that in the movie. Iza (Stephanie) was a postpartum depression victim... after giving birth, she went to extremes of even trying to commit suicide in their front lawn. Eventually she was saved by a raindance by Ogie hahah. Marian (Courtney) is still a designer of underwear and bikinis that had a stalker and never got into bed with her husband because she said she was not prepared to have a baby. Ogie (Luga Luda) had a wonderful stint of having a boy of her own...her antics were just fun! I couldnt stop laughing in the massage scene. Poor boy got kissed a couple of times too hahaha. She had an unbreakable bond as half-sisters. The five are brought together by the love and affection they hold for each other.

All in all this was a nice movie. I don't watch Filipino Movies that much because they are somtimes predictable and too commercial. This was great considering they only landed on the 4th spot in the festival. If I were to judge they should have been second to Ang Tanging Ina nyong Lahat. ^_^ You should watch it since I gave it 4 KUMAGS out of FIVE.

KUMAGCOW MOOOOVIE REVIEWS: High School Musical 3

No, I never watched 1 and 2 so I dunno! Gimme a break!

I know I would be a little hard on you guys that may have watched and liked High School Musical 1, High School Musical 2 and people slaving on cable watching the Disney Channel for the same. Well... to tell you frankly when I watched this movie, I was clueless who Troy Bolton, Gabriella Montez, Chad Danforth, Taylor McKessie, Sharpay and Ryan Evans were. I only knew Zach Efron?!!! and half Filipina Vanessa since they have been raving in the news for quite a while but their characters here were a little far off from what I expected. Not to mention that it should have had a warning the movie were for teeny boppers ONLY (around 10-13) and not for the faint of heart of CUTESIE roles....(NAUMAY AKO SA SOBRANG PACUTE EH) I did not like it because maybe I was not a fan enough of the movie... yeah maybe.. well some parts were worth watching... and maybe again, just maybe if I started watching this since High School Musical 1 I'd give a fair reading on how this would critically be. All in all it was like GREASE... not with John Travolta and Olivia Newton John (which I enjoyed)... and was really intended for 3-17yo kids who didn't go out much I guess.... but really don't listen to my reviews for this since I never watched High School Musical 1 and the others.... maybe someday I will....if someone gives me a DVD copy...any offers?! (O_o)

I'm just going to give this 2 KUMAGS in the mean time ok?! Hope you kids don't get mad at me... ^_^

KUMAGCOW MOOOOVIE REVIEWS: The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants 2

The sequel just got better! ^_^

I'm not ashamed to say that I watched this moooovie last 2005 and by golly it was witty and charming to see these ladies get together in rituals of pants that fit them exactly, made them lucky wherever and whenever in the world.

That's me on the shadow... LOLZ ^_^

Just look at the impressive cast!

Amber Tamblyn as Tibby Tomko-Rollins - Now infamous for her XOXO show!
Alexis Bledel as Lena Kaligaris - Super witty at Gilmore Girls
America Ferrera as Carmen Lowell - Need I say more Betty?
Blake Lively as Bridget Vreeland - of countless films and tv appearances!


Someone got scared pregnant, someone got to be a lead actress, an archaeologist and scared of LOVE. Guess who's who! I won't wanna spoil it for yah!

We were like only 9 in the 300+ seater movie house when we entered.... yeah lotsa Filo's didn't like this... primarily coz the story line would be too advanced for the masses... it was not made for that I guess... but since it just showed and no promos were seen apart from the posters outside the movie house, I guess that also is to be blamed... but boy I like this movie... I asked my wifey to neglect the funny movie and opt for this more classy one... guess what! she liked it and asked if I could show her the first part of this movie... I said we can watch cable where this has played a couple of times.... you bet I'll be there with her as well... since I liked this movie so much I'll give it 4 KUMAGS.... the last one goes to the crowd that watched with us... ^_^
