Maybe A Tedious Weekend
I always look forward on weekends, it is the time to grab a popcorn, sit on a soft cushioned chair to watch a motion picture and get entertained. Indeed the phrase, "Relax. See a movie." works for me. Watching a movie transpose me to a world seemingly far from reality. I tend to forget 3 things: myself, time and problems (if there is at the moment! *smirk*). Watching movies in cinemas is my avocation which I think will never end even if I get old. I checked the movies that opened this week, and it's mostly local. I don't mean to offend the patrons of local movies as well as the film industry in the Philippines, but most of them doesn't worth a penny. I watch Filipino movies only once in a blue moon, during MMFF coz I don't have a choice at all. Foreign movies are not allowed to be shown on the 1st two weeks i think. I am really sorry, the quality of the stories of local movies today has been compromised by the doting of the audience for love stories.
