The Couch Potato
Harry Potter and the Order of Phoenix
This is the fifth installment of the Harry Potter series that made it to the big screen. It details Harry’s fifth year in Hogwarts and the efforts of the Ministry of Magic to take over Hogwarts while Voldemort connives to acquire a “weapon.” Unlike other installments, this entails a twisted plot equipped with major surprises—the death of a character, a court trial, overthrowing of a known power, the rise of the Dark Lord, and to top it all, Harry’s first major kiss. A turning point in the HP series, this is considered as Rowling’s finest work in terms of plot. Fans and foes alike are taken in another enchanting ride that is the Harry Potter trademark.
Transformers
Taken from the ever-famed 1980’s cartoon series, this much-awaited silver screen debut promises a full blast war between the two races of robotic aliens—the Decepticons and Autobots in search of a life-sustaining/ life-taking agent, the “All Spark,” which was accidentally embedded in the realms of Earth. Young Sam Witwicky holds the clue to this quest and finds himself torn between these two groups of intruders. With the world at stake, Sam comes to realize his family’s motto---“No sacrifice, no victory.”
Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer
A sequel to the 2005 blockbuster hit, the world’s famous astronauts-turned-superheroes are back for another action packed adventure with the rise of a new villain—Silver Surfer and the breaking out of Victor Von Doom from his icy prison. The movie glistens in a romantic spark as Sue Storm a.k.a. Invisible Girl and Reed Richards a.k.a. Mr. Fantastic tie the knot in superhero fashion. This effects-heavy movie takes the viewers in a classic good versus evil battle.
Ratatouille
Remy is an aspiring French chef. His passion for cooking is incontestable but his biological condition is a pressing problem. How can a rat be the next best chef in a rodent-phobic market? This is an exciting rat race that rattled the culinary world of Paris. A feel good movie that truly satisfies that fondness for animated flicks; and a moving tale on how a rat faces the adversities in pursuit of his big dreams.
The Bookworm
For One More Day
Mitch Albom
Flowing with sentiments toward a death of someone, For One More Day recounts the journey of a son who gets to spend one more day with her mother who died eight years earlier. Readers are taken in a patented Albom attack on tackling life and death. The plot deals with self-redemption and the lead character’s struggles to overcome his ghosts.
A Bend in the Road
Nicholas Sparks
A deviation from Sparks’ conservative romantic tongue, A Bend in the Road is an intriguing take on a romance clouded with deceptions, remnants of the past and tragedy. Readers are bound to have an intense shift in emotional gear—love, sadness, anger and frustration. The approach in writing challenges the readers to solve the mystery because the love affair of the two lead characters is haunted by a devastating secret. Whether you solve the puzzle or not, the climax is still a sure surprise. A valiant effort from Sparks.
Everything’s Eventual
Stephen King
This is the first collection of stories from the master of horror, Stephen King, since Nightmares and Dreamscapes. Everything’s Eventual is comprised of 14 short stories dug up from King’s genius. Every story generates the ultimate chill expected from King. The book includes an O. Henry Prize winner, two other award winners, four previously published by The New Yorker and Riding the Bullet, King’s original e-book which attracted over half a million online readers and became the most famous short story of the decade. Released in 2002, this is another milestone to King’s brilliant career as a writer.
Witch of Portobello
Paulo Coelho
From the author of Veronika Decides to Die and The Alchemist, Coelho comes up with another riveting novel set in London. This is a story of a woman tagged as the Witch of Portobello for her apparent powers of prophecy. Her life is pieced together by a series of recorded interviews from people who touched her life. The story unravels her mysterious beginning to her abrupt departure. Meticulously written so as to invoke questions and centers on the idea of solving the mysteries of the lead character’s identity by the people around her.
The Disc Jockey
It won’t be Soon before Long
Maroon 5
The band’s sophomore outing is a cool blend of electro-funk and blue-eyed soul that exudes a striking confidence. Fresh from the success of their bitter debut, Songs about Jane, their recent effort has a more defined and sleek sound attesting to their status as America’s frontrunner in the pop band scene. The sound in general is a fusion of their musical influences ranging from the sweet style of Sting to funky new wave rock.
The Dutchess
Fergie
Step into the eclectic beat of the dutchess (intentionally misspelled to show Fergie’s command over her music). This is a mix of throwback hip hop and soul, reggae, ska-punk, scat, and midtempo fluff produced by her colleague, Will.I.am. This is her debut as a solo artist after sticking with the successful hip hop group, Black Eyed Pea. In terms of quality, the tracks depict Fergie as an itching solo artist who wants to do away with the BEP’s image.
Once Again
John Legend
The record is definitely made from the pure heart and soul of one of the greatest songwriters in the current music scene. If other artists are claiming that their sound is soulful, they should listen first to this album. The label features a brand of soul music that is in its purest and undiluted form. Legend’s breathtaking vocals, a sound that is uncluttered with simple and intelligent lyrics constitute Once Again. The carrier single, Save Room, is a little bit poppy contrary to the subdued sound of other Legend’s work. This only proves the versatility that lies in his musical genius.
The Sweet Escape
Gwen Stefani
Talk about reinvention, Gwen Stefani is one of the few artists that can shift their image and sound to another direction whenever they come up with a new album. The Sweet Escape delivers a based-heavy hip hop with pop lyrics and retro-flavored anthems. To date, it is Stefani’s most adventurous and ambitious work. Unique and new beats which are far more different from Stefani’s previous output are introduced in the record. Stefani takes the softer track with her own definition of ballads which can be compared to the iconic beginnings of Madonna.
