Uncle Drew - Best Sports Comedy of the Year!

When basketball is life, it remains even as time passes by. As a tradition of sports movies, Uncle Drew brings a new age movie about legends that would never retire. Starring real NBA players like Kyrie Irving, Shaquille O'Neal, Chris Webber, Reggie Miller, Nate Robinson and Lisa Leslie, the film was brought to the screen with Pepsi Productions.

Uncle Drew, a known legend of Streetball in New York gets into the ambition of Team Manager Dax to win the Rucker Classic Cup with the large championship prize. They brings together old, yet incredible team which haven't played on court in decades but still got their talent embedded into their system.

The journey of bringing together the team was the real challenge in the film as most of them completely retired from the game and have their own individual lives away from the sport. Uncle Drew tries his best to convince them to join the team, and they obliged. Though the general plot is predictable, there are some moments that it works with the comedy which is what the movie aims to be.

REEL DEAL: The Hunger Games Catching Fire REVIEW

Having read the whole book trilogy made me a conscious critic for the movie, and when the first movie came out, I was impressed that they have condensed the story into a two hour movie which still excites me and amazes me on its execution. Now playing in theaters is the second installment of the Hunger Games: Catching Fire. Now I am expecting more from the series.

Katniss Everdeen (Jenifer Lawrence) and Peeta Mellark (Josh Huctcherson) as victors of the 74th Hunger Games will noe embark on thei victory tour as a couple until they come into the rising revolution that is happening to the districts. The twist of the Quarter Quell, will bring them back ot the arena with the past victors and all those involved in the games.

What I loved about this sequel is its progressive storyline which stayed true to the nature of the book, and kept ample time for moments that are worth highlighting. I love the visual effects which was very carefully detailed especially with the technological and structural advancement in the world of Panem.

REEL DEAL: The Twilight Saga - Breaking Dawn Part 2 REVIEW

The epic conclusion to the books by Stephanie Mayer about vampires and werewolves is finally here with the Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn Part 2. And just like movie series finale, there are high expectations with its conclusion.

The saga was followed by a lot of women for its romantic factor (and Taylor Lautner abs) . And some men liked it for its fight scenes and gore. Lately the main stars Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart also gone trough controversial break up with infidelity issues which made it awkward at some point as they attend press conferences and the premiere night. 

But amidst all the controversies the movie is one of the most awaited with the fate of Bella and Edward, and we can also include Jacob and Renesmee (Edward and Bella’s child). 

The movie will also include vampires from all over the world with special abilities. Of course my favorites would be Alice Cullen and Jane (Dakota Fanning, one of the Volturi Vampires). It will also be the first movie that Bella will finally fight by her own as a newborn vampire.
