Movie Review: Dance of the Steelbars

Dance of the Steelbars Movie Poster

Dance of the Steelbars is an Filipino Indie Drama Film directed by Cesar Apolinario and Marnie Manicad and starring Patrick Bergin, Joey Paras and Dingdong Dantes. The movie is rated R so no movie review for Rated G.

For Rated PG:

If you watched the trailer of the movie, you can tell that this movie is plenty of action but not the whole movie has action scenes because the real story of this film is the life of the prisoner in jail. It is filled with lessons for young people in today's era. The story of the film is full of hope that will inspire us. The special word in the title of the film is in the finale of this movie.

RATING: 5.5

For Rated SPG:

The story of the film is plain but the theme and concept of the film is new and that the story of the prisoners in jail with a dance. Unfortunately the production of this film is inadequate but it is understood for an indie film. The actors showed their skill in acting, Patrick Bergin as  Frank, Joey Paras as Allona, Dingdong Dantes as Mando, etc. but wait there's more, some Cebu dancing inmates participated in this film. Like the movie review in Rated PG, this movie is filled with lessons. 

RATING: 6.5

Overall, Dance of the Steelbars is great in castings and the story, it will be better if this is not an Indie film to gain more moviegoers to watch it. 

OVERALL AVERAGE RATING: 6

Dance of the Steelbars is now showing exlusively at SM Cinema. Watch now before others tell the full movie. ;)

MTRCB Rating: R-13

Movie Review: Hummingbird

Hummingbird Movie Poster

Hummingbird is an American action and thriller film directed by Steve Knight and starring Jason Statham. In other countries, the title of the movie is varied like "Crazy Joe", "Redemption" and we get here in our country-"Hummingbird". Before I express my Movie Review, I would like to thank SM Cinema for inviting for inviting me in the advance screening of Hummingbird. The movie is rated R so no Movie Review for Rated G.

For Rated PG:

The Movie is maybe appropriate for the Teenagers. "Maybe" is the word because because it has many action scenes but not much flirting with the young people because the story is not complete in the movie, It was pity because it is new story for action/thriller movie. The advantage also of the Film is that Jason Statham is the main character of the film.

RATING: 5

For Rated SPG:

The Movie Review for adults is similar to the teenagers. Many action scenes and the setting of the film is best for action/thriller film. The night setting of the film is good. The cast are good in acting especially Jason Statham for action scenes as Joseph Jones and Agata Buzek as Sister Cristina. The story of the film is incomplete in the movie like the ending of the film is in hanging position.

RATING: 6

Overall, Hummingbird is good for cast and setting but the story is incomplete.

OVERALL AVERAGE RATING: 5.5

Hummingbird opens on May 29 2013 (Wednesday) Exclusively at SM Cinema. Watch now before others can tell the full movie. ;)

MTRCB Rating: R-13
