Today's Review: 'Finding Dory' & 'The Conjuring 2' deliver; The Season Six Finale of 'Game of Thrones' previews [SPOILERS]

Looks like Star Cinema is on a roll. Each month, we have new movies from them. This June, Jodi Sta Maria, Ian Veneracion and Richard Yap team up for  The Achy Breaky Hearts . Watch the trailer below: Chinggay (Jodi Sta. Maria), a jewelry shop manager, is one of the single women in their 30’s who feels the pressure to find love. She goes out on dates with men but none of them seem to make the cut. You may blame her high standards but the pain from her previous relationship could also be affecting her judgment on men. Now, her love life is suffering a drought for seven years. Everything changes when suddenly, two men are interested to be with her. Ryan (Ian Veneracion) and Frank (Richard Yap). Chinggay finds herself torn between two kinds of love. Will she choose one over the other? Or will she realize that the love that she needs won’t come from either? (c) Star Cinema The Achy Breaky Hearts  will be in theaters on July 29.

First footage at Aldub's new epic romantic movie 'Imagine You & Me'; Can it pull the 'My Bebe Love'-like gross?

GMA has finally released a sneak peek for the much-anticipated Aldub movie  Imagine You & Me . This movie is a test for the Aldub loveteam if they could still draw a huge audience now that they're out of the MMFF territory ( My Bebe Love   earned PHP 385 million) and the buzz has decreased significantly lately. The film will open on  July 13  where it is expected to battle with the new  Ghostbusters  movie and  The Purge: Anarchy  and  Star Trek: Beyond  the following week. Watch the trailer below:
