REEL DEAL: Kung Fu Panda 3 REVIEW


It has been a powerful and entertaining franchise which was inspired from the eastern martial arts, now also an entertainment success, Kung Fu Panda hits harder now on its 3rd movie. The movie now expands to his roots and even the heritage from the secret Panda village.

The Dragon Warrior Panda Po faces a new foe that goes beyond dimensions. With the furious five and Master Shifu still has a lot to learn, the quest for peace and justice goes into another level. A new villain emerges from the spirit realm and takes on the best masters in China, the only hope lies again with Po.

The third film looks fun and awesome with the Pandas and all but it pars equally with the last film which was also quite heavy with the dark past. This time they incorporated it with the spirit realm which is a new place with new powers, and a great expansion for future sequels.

REEL DEAL: R.I.P.D. REVIEW


Do you ever feel that the world is never safe, despite the technology and security among us? What if there are things that we don't see with our normal eyes that has been 

R.I.P.D. is here to save you from the damned of the underworld. Comprising of the best law enforcers who ever lived and died. They will protect the mortal world from the "deados" who plans to bring havoc to the living world.

REEL DEAL: One Soul at a Time: Developing R.I.P.D.

Before Peter M. Lenkov wrote for hit television series such as 24, CSI: NY and Hawaii Five-0, he cut his procedural teeth on the series of graphic novels known as “R.I.P.D.”

This team has the ability to traverse the real world and the netherworld to keep demons at bay and ensure that the balance of life and death—and the inherent safety of humanity—remains a guarantee.
