Among the most celebrated films by Khavn, “Mondomanila” is a testament to his overall style and, despite the omnipresent extremity, one of his most approachable works.
Expanding on the concepts and scenes of “Overdosed Nightmare”, “Mondomanila” deals with life in the slums of Manila, through the stories of a number of hardcore misfits. The protagonist is Tony D, a teenager who has a very a concise opinion about the government, and is not afraid to express it in the most cross way, at least when he is not drunk or under the influence of drugs. The rest of the protagonists include his sex-addict mother, Mariya, Lovely Loanshark, a gambling addict, Sgt Pepper, a policeman who was discharged from the force and has now placed his hopes for a contribution to society on his son, who happens to be a homosexual. Steve Banners, an old American who happens...

Graceland - Drafthouse Films - Blu-ray and DVD Directed by: Ron Morales Cast: Arnold Reyes, Menggie Cobarrubias, Dido Dela Paz,Leon Miguel, Marife Necisito. Full cast + crew Graceland is like the art-house version of Taken. Instead of having an ex-cia badass tearing through a foreign city to look for his kidnapped daughter who is about to be forced into prostitution, we've got a politician's poorly paid driver who goes on a mission through hell after his daughter is accidentally kidnapped in place of the politician's daughter. That's about where the similarities end, though. I just wanted to get the attention of anyone who otherwise may not pay attention to a Filipino thriller. Graceland is a dark, unflinching movie about the limits...

We just got word on a new trailer from the Noel Tan directed Filipino film Darkest Night, which will be released in the U.S. later this year. Check it out!
Not sure if that's the title I would have gone with considering the final Batman movie comes out later this year as well, but maybe they'll grab some extra ticket sales when some bumpkins accidentally wander into their film thinking they're about to see the Caped Crusader and Bane duke it out. Hey, every dollar counts, right? The film stars DJ Perry, Anne Gauthier and French Filipina. It also features Issa Litton, Nic Campos, Jill Palencia, Marife Necesito, Zeny Sevilla, Kevin Vitug and Jonas Gruet.
If you like the trailer, be sure to check out the Darkest Night website and the Darkest Night Facebook page.
From the Press Release
Darkest Night unfolds in a “found video and documentary” style.

Due Date (15)
(Todd Phillips, 2010, Us) Robert Downey Jr, Zach Galifianakis, Jamie Foxx, Michelle Monaghan, Danny McBride, Juliette Lewis. 95 mins
Last year's The Hangover was an unexpected, unpredictable delight, but Phillips's follow-up is the exact opposite. Where The Hangover ran around in crazy loops, this travels down a long, straight, well-travelled road where you can see the obstacles and contrivances coming up a mile off. A shame since our odd couple are potentially great – Downey Jr the uptight straight man with a baby on the way; Galifianakis another memorable borderline-sociopath – and there are some laughs. But for every decent joke, there's an unfunny gross-out gag, a "surprise" twist or an unlikely escapade. It feels more like desperation rather than inspiration.

A fatuous, self-serving and fantastically dishonest exercise in pseudo-compassion, says Peter Bradshaw
A decade ago, Swedish film-maker Lukas Moodysson was being described by Bergman as a "young master", but his touch has recently failed him, and now his career has hit a real low with this fatuous, self-serving and fantastically dishonest exercise in pseudo-compassion, composed in the supercilious "globalised" style of Alejandro González Iñarritu's 2006 film Babel. Gael García Bernal plays Leo, an online gaming entrepreneur, based in New York, heading off to Bangkok in his lawyer-agent's private jet to sign the deal of a lifetime, leaving behind his wife Ellen (Michelle Williams) a hard-working ER surgeon, and their adored infant daughter Jackie (Sophie Nyweilde). Leo's journey into the developing world unfolds in parallel with the angst of their nanny Gloria (Marife Necesito), whose family back in the Philippines is going through a crisis. Leo's brush with poor people in a...

Just in case you still needed another movie to make you feel guilty about things you didn’t do, here’s Mammoth, a film whose redeeming qualities are all but completely negated by the fact that it’s several years late to the hyperlink game (which people were already starting to turn on by the time that Babel came out). The premise is solid enough, the actors are trying their best, and writer-director Lukas Moodyson (this is his first English language film) clearly tried very hard to not make a bad film, but to a degree, that’s the problem. It’s hard to take on a narrative that spreads across two continents and several time zones, and then not take any further risks with the subject matter. As a result, you have a film that presumes to show everything, but instead says nothing, or at least doesn’t say...

Chicago – The relationship between American families and their foreign maids is a subject that has been tackled in a variety of previous indie pictures, from Alejandro González Iñárritu’s “Babel” to Todd Solondz’s “Storytelling.” Yet in “Mammoth,” the English-language debut from Swedish-born filmmaker Lukas Moodysson, the material is dealt with in a refreshingly humanistic way, devoid of sensationalism (the story concludes with neither deportation nor asphyxiation).
Unlike an Oscar-winning social critique like “Crash,” which succinctly summarizes its overarching message in its opening line of dialogue, “Mammoth” dodges the opportunity to preach. Moodysson is confident enough as a storyteller to allow his characters to develop organically, without feeding them through the contrived machinery of a self-consciously moralistic plot. While his previous work, such as his stellar 2000 picture “Together,” blended comedy with pathos, this film delves into considerably darker waters, exploring the connection between globalization and alienation. A more fitting title may have been,...

The Basketball Diaries - Blu-ray Review
I wouldn’t say it if I didn’t believe it but this is without question the best film Leonardo DiCaprio has ever done.
A story about the young life of Jim Carroll, the film is an abrasive, dark, evocative portrait that showcases DiCaprio as an actor that seamlessly blends into the background of a story that is nothing short of compelling. Now in Blu-ray this is a wonderful chance to revisit a movie that helped Leo be known as an actor to contend with but, I think, the real joy in re-watching this movie is its dealing with drug culture that wasn’t proselytizing in nature but exposed it for what it was.

Lukas Moodysson woefully neglected (at least in North America) new film starring Michelle Williams, Gael Garcia Bernal and Marife Necesito (a wonderful Filipino actress who is the real heart and soul of the film) steps back from flirtations with pornographic explicitness (A Hole in My Heart) or the baffling bauble of Container and takes on the large task of trying to understand family bonds in the 21st century. A film as timely as Up In The Air or the 2006 film it is inevitably compared to: Alejandro González Iñárritu's Babel (if only because of the world-hopping story and Gael Garcia Bernal who is, more or less, in the Brad Pitt role), it may be even better than either of those two because of its quiet (distant) empathic confusion. While it eventually comes to a boil, for the most part,...

Sweden's Lukas Moodysson burst onto the international film scene with 1998's "Fucking Åmål" (or, as it was cowardly renamed in English-speaking countries, "Show Me Love"), a carefree, naturalistic drama about a reluctant romance between two small-town teenage girls. Just as ebullient is his 2000 period satire and popular favorite "Together," which focuses on the dysfunctional relationships and values of '70s left-wingers living in a commune, after which Moodysson began pursuing darker, moodier fare. 2002's critical darling "Lilya 4-ever" couldn't get much bleaker, tracing a Russian girl's journey from drop-out to prostitute to kidnapped sex slave. Following that were two avant-garde experiments: 2004's shockingly explicit take on amateur porn, "A Hole in My Heart," and his 2006 stream-of-consciousness curiosity, "Container."
Though American actress Jena Malone provided narration to that last film, Moodysson's new drama is also his first English-language production, mostly. "Mammoth" splits between three related storylines in New York, the Philippines and Thailand.
