Your Place or Mine? Film Trailer Review

Viva Films has outdone themselves again with this trailer for their Wattpad adapted romantic film. Don't you just "love" it when a trailer leaves little to the imagination? Guess they are marketing this to the Wattpad fans who already knew the ending of the film because the trailer "never" hinted it.


What is there to say about Your Place or Mine? official movie trailer? From the trailer alone we can say that there is a lot punching and slapping, arranged marriages which still somehow works in this politically correct society (probably explained why she needed to wed the person), a "friendzoned" guy who becomes somewhat a threat and may becomes a third party to the initial pair, and some PG-13 love scenes. Guess this is the source of the "kilig factor" of the Wattpad novel and its film adaptation to its teenage (at heart) targeted demographic. Interesting as of the time bing local television channel TV5 has a romance television show featuring Wattpad stories with "Wattpad Presents". Guess "You're Place or Mine?"'s adult theme (of one night stand) and this being a best-selling novel is not covered by the usually tween-friendly television programming of the local networks.


Times are truly changing as romantic films (and films in general) have now become more and more gutsy with their presentation and themes. More skin and more love scenes is the future of movies as if that indicates that film studios (and writers) are taking their audience seriously and treating them like mature and rational individuals. There is nothing wrong with it as it gives creators more space to add more twist to recycled movie story and themes. It somehow deviate from the rich guy-poor girl or vice versa theme. Unfortunately Viva Films lack or marketing with the titles they produce (unlike that of Star Cinema) and the film's sexy imagery can somehow affect the sales of this film. We'll see how this film will perform. Will it be a sleeper hit or simply another mediocre romantic film left to obscurity?


How about you guys, what do you think about this film adaptation of Wattpad's bestselling author Turning Japanese (turning_japanese)' novel? Are you big Wattpad reader?

A Secret Affair Film Trailer Review

Viva Entertainment just recently release the trailer for A Secret Affair which is from the title itself is a film about a secret affair... a love triangle between Anne Curtis, Derek Ramsay and Andi Eigenmann's characters. A Secret Affair is another film that joins the ranks of The Mistress and Unofficially Yours. It seems like 2012 is the year of Adult Themed Filipino drama films. So what can be said on the first official trailer for A Secret Affair?

There are no accompanying spoiler-full synopsis this time with the release of A Secret Affair's trailer. If you have been around Pinoy Movie Blogger, one of our biggest complaints about Viva Films is its irritating habit of spoiling the whole film through its synopsis shown on its official channels (FB Page, Website, Youtube Trailer Page). Well even if they did that on this film, it really won't matter as the trailer generally did that for them. So what is left for the audience to watch are the number of the confrontation scenes of the legal partners and the other women; and the conclusion for this adult themed love story. A Secret Affair features some of the most gorgeous faces in the industry delivering lines after lines of epic confrontational lines and sometimes cheesy ones only seen on films of such calibers. The big question now is will A Secret Affair comes close to a blockbuster success of what a Star Cinema film produced title of the same genre can? Will another film cashing in on the reality and considered villainy of third parties, mistresses, or other woman as a plot line be enough to make this a blockbuster success? or will it all be the gorgeous lead actors portraying the roles? That is what we'll soon find out this October.

Pridyider Film Trailer Review

Here goes Regal Films again with their spoiler-ific synopsis available from their official movie channel (Pridyider's FB Page). Guess I just have to live with the fact that this is how these traditional film outfit roll in this modern age. I first watched the trailer and was fascinated a bit, before going on a search to find additional materials to be used in this trailer impression. Regal Films' marketing team didn't fail me as they have literally summarized the first half of the film with their synopises. I have this initial idea that the 2012 Pridyider would be a direct sequel to the 1986's Shake, Rattle and Roll episode as it still had Miss Janice De Belen on it, but I really don't know if this is one or just a reboot a.k.a. "spiritual successor" of the 1986 episode of SR&R. With that comes the mystery and curiosity.

It would be quite a bore to see the same scares and story anyways, so an update is really essential. This time we have fresh faces in Pridyider, with some few old ones in the casr which really gives you an idea that this could very well be a sequel, but it could also not be (Now I'm confusing you hahaha). I have vivid recollection of the first Shake, Rattle & Roll film, but the funny thing is that the whole film is currently available on Youtube as I make this Pridyider trailer impressions. Well, now that it is out there, it would only be just a matter of time before it gets taken down. But before they do, I've already watched it, and will make a review of Shake, Rattle & Roll I here in Pinoy Movie Blogger, so watch out for that one.

Well, since Regal has already spoil the hell out of this film no thanks to their synopsis, which I really can't understand what goes into the heads of their marketing team when they do that, but like I said earlier what is left for the movie goers to find out is the story behind the Pridyider and how does it ties up with the protagonist. Well saw the graphics used in the film and we can't really do a thing about it any more as this seems to be the trend of horror films nowadays. Oh, how I miss those gory and believable practical effects. Well, hopefully they have more time to polish those effects as they look really cheap. Come on Regal Films, you are already an empire! Can't you at least get better graphics than those? Well, it is probably just me, but gamers can have a general idea of what they made reference with dismembered body parts coming to life.

So what can we say? Well maybe you guys can try it JUST. I know I would but only for the sake of curiosity and nostalgia. Also, Regal Films should really need to work on the official press materials they release on their official channels. Yes, I am particularly referring to the synopsis they usually post as it usually leaves nothing to the imagination of its potential audience. Well if they didn't then they are in for a treat, or are they? A mediocre CGI with a little mystery, we'll give it an okay recommendation, you may give it a past or you may not. I would still check it out if ever my schedule frees up just for the sake of nostalgia and curiosity.

How about you guys, what can you say about Shake, Rattle & Roll I's Pridyider getting a 2012 horror film treatment? Do you still remember the 1986 version? If not, does this film makes you want to check it out? Share your thoughts about Pridyider's official movie trailer in the comments section below:
