Malangan Labadama: A Tribute to Buk-Buk Audience Reviews

Rio Hayward All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.
Quiet Muffin This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.
Hattie I didn’t really have many expectations going into the movie (good or bad), but I actually really enjoyed it. I really liked the characters and the banter between them.
Skyler Great movie. Not sure what people expected but I found it highly entertaining.
