It’s so refreshing to watch a new Superman movie that doesn’t go over the backstory again. How many times do we have to see Superman’s home world Krypton explode and the young infant Kal-El is sent to Earth to live with humans? What’s refreshing about James Gunn’s ‘Superman’ is that it starts the story in medias res with Superman already having saved Metropolis enough times to be beloved by all and his longtime nemesis Lex Luthor is knee-deep in a new plan to destroy him. In fact, the film starts with Superman in mid-battle and it’s brutal. It kicks off the film with a lot of energy, taking all our expectations and throwing it out the window because everything looks stunning.
But more importantly, what I find truly engaging is Gunn and David Corenswet’s take on the metahuman Superman. Don’t get me wrong, I’m a huge fan of Christopher Reeve, Henry Cavill, and even Brandon Routh’s portrayals of the iconic hero. But all of their versions carry a lofty, otherworldly goodness that leans heavily into the archetype of the boy scout: infallible and overflowing with kindness. Of course, Cavill’s take is a little darker, a little more tortured, because of Snyder’s grasp of the world but it’s still more than human. But Gunn and Corenswet makes Superman very, very human.
He gets frustrated. Little things bother him. There’s a joy he has when he does something good, like a teen winning an award at school. He can even be a bit cocky, which gives him a bit of an edge. It’s these little touches that makes Corenswet’s Superman so believable, especially when the film tries to paint him as a human being with godlike powers. For the first time, I believe in Superman as a character.
Gunn also manages to build a world where metahumans are a normal part of everyday life. When they battle in the middle of the city, some people stop to stare or take videos, while others run for cover. It’s all part of life in a superhuman world. In one hilarious scene, Clark and Lois (Rachel Brosnahan) share an intimate moment while, in the background, a group of heroes fights a massive creature. It’s probably just another Tuesday in this version of reality.
In the film, Lex Luthor (Nicholas Hoult) uses the resources of his billion-dollar empire to try and take down Superman. The caped hero is in hot water because he stopped a war between two nations, the nation that started the conflict being an ally of the United States of America. His intervention has caused a geopolitical mess that has Luthor lobbying for the banning of metahuman activities.
But Superman just wants to do good and in a brilliantly written and performed scene by Corenswet and Brosnahan, Lois interviews Superman and asks him the tough questions about the dangers of overstepping his authority in matters of geopolitics.
This and other events lead to Superman losing the public’s trust, and it’s quite brilliant how Gunn weaves in politics, foreign policy, and social media to become a greater threat than Lex Luthor ever could be. Gunn manages to maintain a sense of whimsy and comedy (which he has mastered in previous comic book films) while using the narrative to allude to real-world issues and forming an allegory for the problems that’s happening in the world and in America today.
By bringing in the importance of public opinion, Rachel Brosnahan’s Lois Lane becomes an active player in the story and not just Superman’s love interest. As a reporter, she has the means to go against Lex Luthor in the public sphere while Superman handles the superhuman threats the comes along.
And Superman is not alone.
‘Superman’ is a big, fun, and fast-paced comic book movie. It’s irreverent, packed with stunning visual effects, and filled with high-flying, high-octane fight scenes. The editing is sharp, quick without ever losing clarity. Corenswet and Hoult are both incredible, and Brosnahan holds her own, never fading into the background. While Nathan Fillion’s Guy Gardner is bound to become a fan favorite, it’s Edi Gathegi’s Mr. Terrific who might surprise new viewers with a quiet meaty role and has a lot of standout moments.
Superman, as a character, has always been so invincible that writing a story for him for the movies seemed impossible to bring it down a scale to something relatable. It’s always so big and massive because of the power he wields. What James Gunn and his team does is not bring down the scale but amplifies his humanity making ‘Superman’ something new, especially for people like me who has never read his comics.
My Rating:

Looking for a compelling story outside of ‘Jurassic Park,’ the first film in the franchise, might be asking for a bit too much. The original movie, released in 1993, warned us about the dangers of using science to play God. It served as an allegory for human hubris and how, as the film famously put it, “nature always finds a way.” The films that followed explored similar themes, but the real attraction has always been seeing the dinosaurs interact, engage, and appear as majestic and terrifying as ever. This has remained the main draw of the ‘Jurassic Park’ and ‘Jurassic World’ movies. The latest installment, ‘Jurassic World Rebirth,‘ stays true to this formula.
Following the preceding film, ‘Jurassic World Dominion,’ we are now in a world where dinosaurs are part of the culture. Because the environment is no longer suited for them, the dinosaurs stay mostly within the tropical belt near the equator, which have been made illegal for humans to visit or even come near. Once in a while there are still a few left in the mainlands but they are dying out. The pharmaceutical company ParkerGenix recruits a mercenary and a scientist to sneak into one of the islands to retrieve blood samples from three of the largest dinosaurs in the sea, land, and air. They plan to use the genetic code to create a drug that may cure all forms of heart diseases. While on their mission, they come across a family who were travelling the Atlantic by boat but found themselves attacked by one of the aquatic dinosaurs and in a bid to escape, they find themselves right at the island running for their lives.
Story-wise, there’s nothing more generic than what we are given here in ‘Jurassic Park Rebirth.’ Once again, a corporation spends millions of dollars to send a group of people on a suicide mission to retrieve something they shouldn’t, all to create a drug the world desperately needs but will ultimately be sold for profit. In this case, the mercenary Zora Bennett (Scarlett Johansson) and the scientist Dr. Henry Loomis (Jonathan Bailey) represent two sides of the ethical debate. Zora is in it for the money, hoping to retire, while Henry wants funding for his team. Museums and dinosaur research are no longer in trend, as public interest has waned, and he dreams of seeing a real dinosaur at least once in his life.
The interplay feels a little thin because the story is rushed, unfolding over just three days. The characters quickly encounter the three dinosaurs they were sent to track while also dealing with a family that ends up caught in the middle. As a result, the plot feels underdeveloped and lacking in depth.
It doesn’t help that the story gets split in two once they reach the island. The characters are separated but maintain the same group composition as when they began. The family is on one storyline and the expedition is on another. The family has the least interesting storyline because they don’t belong in this island or this story. Strategically, you feel that they were put there because they are more “relatable” as characters but we have seen enough of these movies to know that they just don’t belong. You’d rather spend more time with the expedition team, who get the more engaging moments, especially since their mission involves getting close to the dinosaurs to extract blood samples.
Luckily, despite its thin storyline, the film is directed by Gareth Edwards, who knows exactly how to maximize big-budget moments for full effect. The film is action-packed and delivers plenty of thrilling scenes that can keep you on the edge of your seat. Sadly, though, the two best moments with the dinosaurs happen early on in the film – the ocean-dwelling Mosasaur and the high-flying Quetzalcoatlus – that the final act feels belabored and extraneous.
Johansson and Bailey are wonderful foils to follow in this adventure, making their characters feel believable. Mahershala Ali, who plays Duncan Kincaid, Zora’s team leader, is unfortunately underutilized. Everyone else just seems to blend into the scenery and can’t find their spot underneath the shadow of the dinosaurs when Edwards has them in his frame.It’s a pretty straightforward and decent film within the franchise. It doesn’t feel as bloated as the other films in the ‘Jurassic World’ franchise and has a lot of homages to the first movie – much like composer Alexandre Desplat incorporating the original John Williams score into his work.
The Grammy-winning global superstar stars as the voice of Smurfette in the highly anticipated Smurfs, hitting Philippine cinemas on July 16. A longtime fan of the lovable blue crew, Rihanna steps into the animated world not just as a voice actor, but also as a producer and musical contributor.
“So many mornings, I woke up long before I was supposed to get ready for school just to get that dose of Smurfs,” remembers Rihanna, who also serves as producer and musical contributor for this year’s Smurfs movie. “I related so much to Smurfette and what she stood for. First of all, I have always loved makeup and hair. We all know that. And she’s an esthetician. She’s also a powerful leader, independent, strong, beautiful, sassy, witty and very empathetic. I was super-inspired by all of that. I think she loves music too and her favorite genres are hip-hop, reggae, Afrobeats, ballads and house. That’s Smurfette. She needs options.”
From Barbados to Blueville: Rihanna’s Childhood Fave Returns to the Big Screen
Growing up in Barbados, Rihanna didn’t have a wide variety of TV shows to enjoy, but The Smurfs was a childhood staple. “So many mornings, I’d wake up early just to catch them,” she recalls. Now, decades later, she gets to embody the very Smurf who inspired her growing up.
In this reimagined adventure, Smurfette leads the Smurfs into the real world on a bold rescue mission. When Papa Smurf (voiced by John Goodman) is mysteriously taken by evil wizards Razamel and Gargamel, it’s up to Smurfette and her pint-sized pals to discover their true destiny and save the universe.
Director Chris Miller—also a childhood fan—aims to take audiences on a fresh, thrilling ride. “It opened my world up to the possibilities of what animation could be like,” says Miller, who was also a fan of the 1980s animated TV series as a kid. “In this film, audiences will see Smurfs in a way that no one’s ever seen before. Using the original Peyo comics as a blueprint, we’ve reinvigorated the franchise. We brought the world of the comic book into a computer-generated universe that is immersive and tactile.”
Honoring Legacy, Celebrating the Future
A key highlight for Rihanna during production? Meeting the family of Peyo, the legendary Belgian artist who created the Smurfs. They’re so invested,” she says. “They were an important part of the entire process. We just want to make everyone proud and introduce a new generation to Smurfs. We are super excited to take the audiences with us on a magical journey into the amazing world of Smurfs. This is a huge movie about the smallest heroes in the universe. It’s a big-time adventure with action, music, laughter and the cutest daredevils you’ve ever seen.”
With catchy songs, breathtaking animation, and the tiniest heroes in the biggest adventure, Smurfs promises fun for the whole family.
Sing your happy song and catch Smurfs in cinemas nationwide starting July 16, distributed by Paramount Pictures. Check showtimes and buy your tickets here.

Robinsons Land Corporation (RLC) and the Quezon City Veterinary Department are teaming up for a full day of free pet wellness services such as Pet Bakuna, Pet Konsulta, Snip ‘en Snap and fun activities on July 11 at Robinsons Galleria, starting at 10 AM. This special event, dubbed “R Happiest Place for Pets – World Zoonoses Day,” aims to raise awareness about infectious diseases that can spread from animals to humans. QC Vet’s rescued cats and dogs will also be up for adoption.
Zoonotic diseases, such as rabies, pose risks to both animal and human health. That’s why RLC is leading the change with Pet Bakuna, an anti-rabies vaccination drive. This initiative helps pet parents follow best practices in pet care and ensures their furry companions are protected.
Pet Konsulta is a veterinary consultation program aimed at providing convenience and accessibility for fur parents. Vet consultation is an important responsibility of every fur parent as it enables them to monitor their pet’s health, prevent possible illnesses and ensure that their fur babies are in good shape.
Another pet service that can be availed is the spay and neuter operations called Snip ‘en Snap. Spaying and neutering has its long-term health benefits such as preventing the development of reproductive illnesses. Likewise, it contributes to a more compassionate and sustainable approach on managing the overpopulation of unplanned litter.
The event will also highlight an activity close to all animal lovers’ hearts – pet adoption or The Gift of Furever Home. This adoption drive is focused on finding loving and permanent homes for rescued cats and dogs. Interested adopters undergo thorough screening, background checks, and interviews until they find their purrfect match.
These initiatives highlight RLC’s commitment to creating safe, shared spaces where pets and their parents can thrive. RLC recognizes pets as a fundamental part of Filipino families, and prioritizing their health and wellness means more quality time together. After all, a healthy pet truly is a happy pet!

Save the Date — Superman Hits Theaters on July 9, 2025
Mark your calendars for July 9, 2025, when Superman officially lands in theaters and IMAX nationwide. Distributed by Warner Bros. Pictures, this epic film marks the start of a new era for DC fans.
HOKA®, a division of Deckers Brands (NYSE: DECK), is proud to announce its latest collaboration with StudioPROBA, the vibrant multidisciplinary design studio led by artist, Alex Proba. This collaboration brings art to movement, reimagining a selection of HOKA’s iconic silhouettes through StudioPROBA’s joyful, sculptural lens.
Known for her vibrant exploration of color, pattern, and sensory emotion, Proba has brought her joyful aesthetic to everything from murals and sculpture to textiles, furniture, and digital media. Since founding StudioPROBA in 2013, she has earned global recognition for her playful, immersive designs that transform everyday objects into art. This collaboration with HOKA applies that same ethos to movement, merging form and function through a limited-edition range of expressive footwear.
Rooted in a shared ethos of bold creativity, optimism, and self-expression, the collection celebrates spring’s spirit of renewal. Guided by the concept of the “Energy of Joy,” the designs are inspired by organic movement, emotional connection, and the dynamic relationship between people and nature.
“This collection is a celebration of joy, movement, and color. I wanted each pair to feel like a little burst of happiness on your feet, like you’re walking through a dreamscape inspired by nature, play, and emotion,” says Alex Proba. “Everything I create is meant to be experienced, whether it’s a sculpture in a gallery, a mural on a wall, or a rug in someone’s home. In this case, it’s shoes. It’s artworks, yes, but one that’s meant to be worn, used, and lived in. I want to strip away the preciousness that often surrounds art and invite people to step into joy – literally.”
The collection includes four distinctive colorways across three HOKA silhouettes: the Speedgoat 6, Ora Primo, and Kawana Mid. Each pair acts as a wearable artwork, blending vibrant color, texture, and function to transform everyday movement into an immersive, expressive experience.
“Alex’s innate ability to fuse form and color comes to life exceptionally well within this special partnership. HOKA’s reputation for vibrant hues and exaggerated shape is on full display thanks to her expert eye,” said Thomas Cykana, Senior Director of Global Collaborations and Partnerships at HOKA. “This collection invites everyone, from athletes to art aficionados, to find joy in movement.”
The collection is available at HOKA exclusive stores in One Ayala Mall, GH Mall, SM Aura, and Ayala Malls Manila Bay.
