Mockingjay (Part 1)

“Fire is catching! And if we burn, you burn with us!” 

The first part of Mockingjay is now showing in cinemas all over the world. The third book of Suzanne Collins which is the Mockingjay has been divided into two parts for the movie. Avid readers or even those people who actually don't read the book but just watched the last two movies of Hunger Games, flocked the cinemas to watch the first part of Mockingjay.

Last Saturday, I was lucky enough to be invited to an exclusive screening of the movie. We went to Ayala Center Cebu to watch the movie. The proceeds of this cause will be given to children who are suffering from cancer. My tita paid for the tickets and as we entered the cinema, we were given some snacks by the volunteers of the said event.

We watched the movie and I was like, okay this was in the book and hey! Wait a minute.. Where was that part when **********. haha Of course, as I expected, not all the parts in the book were included in the movie. There were also some parts where they changed something. So I'll just stop here coz I don't want to spoil the movie. Go get your tickets and watch Katniss as she continues her journey in saving Panem!

Maleficent-- A story told anew..

For children (or even young at heart) who grew up watching Disney movies, we'll never forget the wicked villain who cast a curse to Princess Aurora in the movie Sleeping Beauty-- Maleficent!

Maleficent is a movie that folds a story anew from the villain's point of view. It tells us why a once good fairy turned her heart to stone because  of someone who took advantage of her.

Of course, Princess Aurora plays a big part in the movie too. Discover how Aurora grew close to the forest kingdom and most especially how she made Maleficent's stoned heart break free.
