My grade would be from 1 to 5. Magdagdag ng caption 1. Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice  (2016 | Action | US) Last Tuesday, I was able to watch   Batman v Superman    with my friends.

#WhoWillWin? It's Warner Bros. Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice opened to PHP 86.6 million. That's the biggest single day opening gross in the country beating last year's Avengers: Age of Ultron 's PHP 72.7 million (though Age of Ultron  opened on Wednesday while Dawn of Justice  opened on Saturday). It is also the highest grossing single day gross for a movie in the country, beating Age of Ultron 's PHP 83.2 million. Again, it has beaten Age of Ultron 's PHP 83.2 million for the highest grossing Saturday gross ever. Over the past few years, Easter weekend has become a great time for opening a movie and Dawn of Justice  continues to prove that. Despite bad reviews, people still flocked to see the first on-screen together appearance of these characters though it remains to be seen how Filipinos would react to the movie. The movie also broke those records above thanks to its Black Saturday opening. This made all fans and excited moviegoers for Dawn of Justi...

Marvel’s “Captain America: Civil War” finds Steve Rogers leading the newly formed team of Avengers in their continued efforts to safeguard humanity. But after another incident involving the Avengers results in collateral damage, political pressure mounts to install a system of accountability, headed by a governing body to oversee and direct the team. The new status quo fractures the Avengers, resulting in two camps—one led by Steve Rogers and his desire for the Avengers to remain free to defend humanity without government interference, and the other following Tony Stark’s surprising decision to support government oversight and accountability.  Marvel’s “Captain America: Civil War” stars Chris Evans, Robert Downey Jr., Scarlett Johansson, Sebastian Stan, Anthony Mackie, Emily VanCamp, Don Cheadle, Jeremy Renner, Chadwick Boseman, Paul Bettany, Elizabeth Olsen, Paul Rudd and Frank Grillo, with William Hurt and Daniel Brühl.  Anthony & Joe Russo are directing with Kevin...

cast of Gods of Egypt Box Office Mojo is reporting a PHP 115 million opening for Zoolander No. 2 but Deadline.com  is reporting a $ 3.2 million (est. 140+ million) overseas gross of Zoolander No. 2  for this weekend so the numbers are likely to be inflated. It may be the first 'flop' of 2016 but there is a strong interest here in the country for Gods of Egypt . The fantasy pic debuted at 1st place with PHP 81 million. That's a strong opening for an original pic here in the country. This proves that the reviews and negative buzz over the film didn't stop the moviegoers to watch the pic.
