Good day, the main people of the house are out, attended a very special day for couples (marriage) of our neighbor in Villa Escudero, a 2-hour drive from our place. Thankfully, no one here to bother me with my privacy, somehow…. I have my younger sister and a helper with me, though. Well, my sister was suppose to be with my family, there having some freaking fun, though I am having fun too, here in the house. But of course, they gave me some chores… like, watching over my sister, who’s not feeling well, taking care of what we're going to have on dinner and lunch. My elder sister used to call the house from time to time (pregnant), to check on our younger sister and gives advises on what I should be doing….Checking on my younger sister. Well, I have asked our helper to take care of her, coz I want to be free…if you know what I mean.
While waiting for the day, I have watched 3 movies. Ocean’s Thirteen, The Contract and Disturbia, respectively. I decided to watch these movies because I know I won’t be able to watch them once the main people of the house are here. I took the time to kill it by watching the said movies. What I can say about the movies? Well they’re all great and interesting to watch. At first, I thought that the movie, the Contract was not too interesting, but I was wrong. I liked it and in addition, I appreciated how the writers twisted the movie. At first I thought it was predictable, but I have noticed how movies nowadays are twisted, creatively.
Let’s start with Ocean’s Thirteen. I thought it was a sequel of the movie Ocean’s twelve, but technically, it is, but when you watch the movie, it is a different story. Just like in some TV series…New season, different story. Moving forward, it’s about revenge for an old friend who was a victim of a conspiracy between business partners regarding their planned casino/hotel business. It’s worth it coz as I have mentioned earlier, I used to think that I know what will happen next, but they really have created it creatively twisting. You would think that they failed but its part of their plan to strike revenge. Of course in the end they were victorious. There’s also this part, where they planned to have an unknown person experience the worst stay in the hotel ever, by giving him an untidy, smelly and bug-full room, but in the end they let him win with more than a million dollar money in a slot machine in the airport. That part is like a thank you in behalf of what they just did to him…lovely.
Secondly, The Contract movie. It’s a good enough and simple, but complicated movie. At first, I thought the main character of the movie was a villain and would be imprisoned or something, but in the end he is a very useful person to the government though he kills people and he protected the lives of innocent people who caught him and would surrender him to the authorities since a higher authority had a plan to kill the people who caught the killer. Anyway there’s this part where they met another couple in the woods who are also camping to help them. The guy (another couple) died because the gun was passed to him by the younger guy, pointing to the killer while they were waving at a helicopter who are with the killer. Then in the end the girl they met in the woods was now with them and thinking that they younger guy’s dad has feelings for her now….duh!.... it’s great but predictable.
Lastly, I have watched Disturbia. It was once told to me by my boss that she watched it and she was really disturbed. He also mentioned it to me that it is morbid and stuff. I also did not know that the main character is the character in Transformers. I find him a good, funny and wild(?) actor. But he’s in my ‘favorite actor” list now. He was once in a TV sitcom in Disney channel (I forgot the title). So I put the movie to the test to check if the movie is really too bloody, morbid and stuff… at the start of the movie, it was like a feel good movie, and 80% of the movie is about a teenager who lost his father due to a car accident and stuff, punching his teacher on the face and gave him a 3-month house arrest because of that. Then as the story goes it also shows how he met his girlfriend next door, and giving how he lived his life imprisoned in his house and built a sensor detector gadget on his feet so he could not get far away from the house by 3-meter radius from the modem like receiver or else they will be given a fine of I don’t know, it was not mentioned….. anyway, it was solved and it ended just the way I like it.
In short, I enjoyed my day today, because I was able to somehow clear my mind out of troubles and worries and work. At least I am relaxed and feeling free from these shits! I’m still looking forward to watch more movies that are available here. I’m still looking at some drawers here if I have missed something else for me to watch. I am planning to watch more movies by tomorrow, Sunday, to relax my freaking annoying brain and breathe. Until next time. I will post another blog here. I just noticed that I could do this more often since I have my internet connection online, unlimited, and it’s worth to abuse it though I have to consider the electric bill. Anyway I’ll see you again.
