REEL DEAL: Wonder Woman REVIEW


The DC Cinematic Universe is expanding fast and it would be fitting that one of  members the Trinity of this comic realm should be given light. Wonder Woman has been around for more than 76 years, and this  year she is finally given the spotlight she truly deserve. She made her first appearance in the Batman v Superman Dawn of Justice, and this film will give more spectrum to Amazon Princess.

Gal Gadot takes on the role of Wonder Woman, the warrior of Themyscira who goes out into world engulfed in war and plans to stop it as her personal mission. As many of the characters have their own Greek Mythological origins, it connects well to the audience even to people not quite familiar with the comics. It is indeed an empowering movie for women as it shows powerful and strong moves from many of the female characters. 

With a big threat of mass destruction coming  to the mortal world, Diana comes with Steve Trevor and embark on a journey to end the war. There has been a lot of light moments with Diana exploring the human world and jokes between their band. But of course we enjoyed every drop of action which I can say is one of the best DC comics movie.

Help Save the Environment with Style and in Comfort with TCL’s Newest Series of R410a Air Conditioners

Back in our school days, we were already taught that the ozone layer is a region of the Earth’s stratosphere that protects us from the harmful ultraviolet (UV) rays of the Sun. However, this layer is eventually getting thinner and slowly depleting due to mankind’s continuous use of ozone-depleting substances such as chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs), hydrochlorofluorocarbons (HCFCs), and halocarbons, to name a few. These substances are commonly found in aerosol sprays, refrigerators, air conditioners, and cleaning solvents—household items and appliances that we encounter every day. Sadly, human activity is the greatest contributor to our ozone layer’s depletion.

TCL, as one of the leading home appliances manufacturer globally, introduces its “Comfort without Compromise” campaign geared towards providing cooling comfort for every family without compromising health and environmental safety through continuous product development and innovation. TCL’s latest series of R410a air conditioners is its response to the emerging ozone depletion problems.

Why the Vivo V5 Lite is way ahead of its competitors

Equipped with a 16-megapixel front camera,
the Vivo V5 Lite produces high-quality and more radiant selfies
 compared to other phones in the same price range. 
In the wake of its recent launch, the Vivo V5 Lite has drawn the attention of selfie enthusiasts nationwide due to its 16-megapixel camera, an outstanding feature that no other smartphone brand in the same price range—P9,990—can claim to have. 

Too good to be true? Not if selfie fans pit the Vivo V5 Lite against similarly priced competitors, such as the Oppo A39.

First, take a selfie using both the V5 Lite and the competitor—and note the glaring difference in terms of clarity of details. After all, the Oppo A39 only has an eight-megapixel shutter vis-à-vis the Vivo V5 Lite’s 16 MP front camera. 

Vivo absolutely nails the selfie game here, as shown in the high-pixel details of the subject’s facial features and hair, and even those of the image’s background.
