Review: Everything About Her
It's been awhile since the last time I reviewed a movie, this review will not be a "Critique" type, but more on what you would expect in the movie "Everything About Her"
BEErating:
Everything About Her: 9/10
"Everything About Her" talks about the struggles of Jaica, Albert and Vivian. The three of them has issues when it comes to their family, like Vivian having troubles reconnecting with his son Albert and Vice Versa, so as Jaica having troubles accepting that her "Nanay" might not come back to them anymore, the movie will show how the three of them taught one another of lessons about family and life.

When it comes to the acting department Vilma Santos will never fail you, in this movie she is "Mataray" but with a heart, the character she portrayed was way far from her personality that sometimes it's hard to believe that a Vilma Santos could be a Kontrabida material with her portrayal as Vivian, The character of Vivian really touched my heart in fact this is the first movie I watched that I cried inside the cinema while watching it.
With Angel Locsin, she did very well in this movie, she was the comic relief for every deep drama scenes like when you are about to cry with the scenes of Vivian, Jaica will make you laugh with her antics. Watching Angel doing Jaica, I am seeing Bb Joyce Bernal, I am seeing Direk Joyce in the character of Jaica.
Xian Lim though sometimes I felt that he was having a hard time showing emotions during some of the heavy scenes, he still did well in this movie, moving out his comfort zone (which is with Kim Chiu) and doing this movie Xian proves that he has more to show, One good thing I saw with Xian in this movie was that he wasn't outshone by his co stars and he proves that he deserves to be in the place where he is in this movie.
Actually to be honest I am looking forward for another Xian-Angel project coz they really looked good together on the big screen, surprisingly.

When it comes to Bb Joyce Bernal's execution of the movie, I love how she put Symbolism on the movie, I love how she used certain objects to symbolize the characters of the story. I also like the camera angles and shots she used for the movie, the only thing I wasn't satisfied of is the last part I wish they had it longer.
When I watched Everything about her I knew it was a Direk Joyce movie the delivery of the story was not to draggy and not to heavy though it was drama I could say that this is a Heavy Drama-Comedy type of movie, it did made me cry, but also it made me laugh as well, there scenes that my tears are about to fall, but suddenly I will burst into laughter.
I guess Direk Joyce wanted to share that even if you are sick you don't need to be sad and that you need someone to make you happy.

Edward Benosa Looks Forward To A More Fruitful 2016
Based on how his 2015 turned out, singer Edward Benosa is looking forward to a really good year in 2016.
In 2015, Edward—most known for his hit song “Di Man Lang Nagpaalam” which made it to the country’s top music charts and won for him a loyal following—won two awards, one a Best New Artist trophy from the Star Awards for Music and another, from the MOR Awards of radio station 101.9FM. He sees these awards as an affirmation that he is in the right place, and that he should continue pushing forward with his career in 2016. “Sa isang nagsisimula na tulad ko, o kahit sinong nagsisimula, mabigyan ka ng Best New Artist of the year, parang enough reason na ‘yon na ipagpatuloy mo itong ginagawa mo. Susundan na kailangan, ipagpatuloy ang sinimulan,” he says.
Edward’s goal is to sustain the momentum of his achievements in 2016. He wants to get into new things, maybe do a concert, record another album and even try more theater.
He is making the phrase “moving forward” his goal for next year. He is happy that groups like the Philippine Movie Press Club (which is behind the annual Star Awards for Music) and MOR 101.9 have seen his potential and by giving him awards and recognition, are encouraging him to do more with what he has.
“Siguro nakikita ‘yung potential ko to be this person na malaki pa yung pwede ko ma-achieve as a singer, sa craft ko, na-a-appr
His manager, stage and screen actor Arnold Cruz Reyes, believes that Edward will go pretty far in 2016. When Edward won the awards in 2015, he was surprised but says things aren’t going to stop there. There is much more for Edward to achieve in 2016.
Arnold says it is obvious that Edward, while a newbie singer and occasional actor, is meant to go places and encourages him only to work harder and pay attention to the advice of people who want to see him succeed even more next year. “Consistent naman kasi, na-nominate siya na Best New Artist of the Year. Nu’ng nangyari nga, sabi ko, ‘Uy nakakatuwa, napapansin tayo,” says Arnold, who’s hoping Edward will be able to build on his past achievements to have an even greater year in 2016.
Edward says that one way of ensuring a better year in 2016 is also to stay positive and not to mind the bashers and critics. Like when he won those two awards, there were people who didn’t think he deserved to win and asked: “Sino siya? Hindi namin siya kilala.”
He just wants to be positive going into 2016. Regardless of what people say, he will keep pressing forward. Even if there are critics, he says, he intends to see things constructively and make positivity his motto for next year.
He just wants to take everything in a positive light, criticism or not. He has a goal, and he knows what he has to do to get there. He will not let negative talk or criticism get in the way. “Kung meron man mang-bash, okay pa rin ‘yon, at least napag-uusapan pa rin,” says Edward. “Hindi naman maiiwasan ‘yung gano’n, kaya sabi ko, i-positivize na lang.”
Edward has high hopes for 2016. He is excited about all the new things coming his way, and is eager to get things started.
“Ang daming bonus ni God para sa akin,” he says with a big smile. Edward is grateful for all the things that happened in 2015, and is looking to make an even bigger splash in 2016.
