Well aware that movies created by Star Cinema is a hit and much more is when its actors are known to be a box office hit maker like Vice Ganda, for this yuletide season a reason to hit cinema and a new reason to be fun and merry with the adventure-comedy film "The Revenger Squad".

From the Unkabogable Star Vice Ganda with Daniel Padilla, and introducing 2015 Miss Universe Ms. Pia Wurtzbach in her comeback film role after her win, "The Revenger Squad" is one of the movie entry for the 43rd Metro Manila Film Festival (MMFF) under the label of Star Cinema and Viva Films.

The Revengers Squad marks the coming together of Vice Ganda, Padilla, Wurtzbach, and director Bb. Joyce Bernal – a certified dream team composed of talented members who are individually considered as four of the country’s biggest entertainment icons.

There are 3 reasons that we have realized why "The Revenger Squad" is a hit with the kids and I'm sure you would want to know it.


First reason, "The Revenger Squad" implores a vey vibrant colors that kids are easily attracted with. They show much attention when they are given a photo of video with vibrant, warm and active colors.

Second reason, Vice Ganda is a hit maker and idolized by kids, Daniel Padilla is also an idol and lastly Pia Wurtzbach is a beauty queen idol. Now who wouldn't want to see them together as they play they funny antics, drama and adventure. Kids love to see their idols and when they watch the movie it is not just them that will watch but the whole family as well.

Lastly, Kids easily laugh and their innocence make it more convincing to encourage others to watch the movie. No money is not an option when it comes to the little ones. Parents would love to see their kids happy, especially during the holidays and to add "minsan lang sila bata."

Adding color to the lineup of stars is Wurtzbach, who created international headlines when she was crowned Miss Universe in the historic Miss Universe 2015 pageant. She snatched the coveted title and brought a well-deserved honor to the Philippines and to every Filipino in the most dramatic of fashions, transcending her status from celebrity to the exhilarating level of both national hero and national treasure.

Under the helm of Bernal and written by Danno Mariquit, “The Revenger Squad” marks a lot of firsts for Vice, Padilla, and Wurtzbach. This is the first time that Vice Ganda and Padilla will be doing a superhero film, with the latter also trying his hand in comedy the first time. Meantime, this is the big screen debut of Wurtzbach after her big win.
The story of “The Revenger Squad” revolves around makeup and rags reseller Emy (Vice Ganda) who, despite his faulty memory, never forgets to guard his younger brother Chino (Daniel Padilla) from harm – to the point of becoming overprotective of his younger brother. The fun begins when Chino turns 21 and Emy remembers the truth about them – that he is the superhero Gandarra and that Chino’s super abilities will soon activate now that he is an adult. Wanting to shelter Chino from the dangers of being a superhero, Emy keeps the truth from his brother and becomes even more protective.
This, until a new superhero emerges, Rapiddo, who Emy discovers is his younger brother Chino. He then decides to become Gandarra again to secretly help and protect his brother. Together with Emy’s super best buddies, Gandarra and Rapiddo become a squad of superheroes who treat each other as family.

The conflict begins when the eccentric superhero Kweenie (Pia Wurtzbach) enters their lives and drops the truth that could break their family.
Completing the team of Gandarra, Kweenie, and Rapiddo are the motley group of lovable super heroes namely Barna (Carla Estrada), Higopa (MC Calaquian), Flawlessa (Lassy Marquez), Pospora (Wacky Kiray), and Enrique Heal (JJ Quilantang).

What makes a hero super? Is it special abilities and superpowers? Or is it the innate ability of the hero to love? Will love, laughter, and joy save the day from the forces of evil?

We've got lucky with our 8 delightful dish from Figaro, they are mouthwatering and will really fill-up your tummy. If you're craving for something that you have not tasted you might want to check out my list of dish from Figaro. As I have mentioned they are really dishes that you will include in your list of good food.

Figaro is our usual hangout when we are hungry and this is not just a coffee shop but its also a dine-in restaurant where you'll enjoy plenty of delectable dishes. You can enjoy it with your partner, a date or just simply hangout, or with your family for a chit chat and snack. Whatever may be your activity there's Figaro, a place where you can enjoy a good conversation with a cup of coffee or any drink, much more food. So lets start with our list.



Here are the 8 irresistible foods offered by Figaro:
1.Magandang Umaga Platter - All star breakfast combo, creamy scrambled egg, smoked ham, bacon, logganisa, potato wedges, sliced batard baguette, tomatoes and cucumber. My kids love it, me as well because all our favorites is there and it is truly irresistible.
2. Pork Longganisa - Savor the sweet and spicy flavor of homemade pork longganisa perfectly complemented with tomato cucumber salsa, fried farm fresh egg and jasmine rice. This is our favorite (family) every time we visit Figaro regardless what time, this is included in our menu. Our dine-in experience will not complete if we don't have this.

3. BLT Croissant - Layers of honey cured bacon, fresh lettuce and ripe red tomatoes on freshly baked butter croissant. My brother and I spend a date at Figaro we tasted this and it is so delicious that I was able to finish it in one sitting. I am not fond on bread or sandwiches but this one I super like it.
4. Pasta Ala Carlo - Figaro's signature pasta, sweet and spicy medley of flavors, light tomato basil sauce, capers, tuna chunks, black olives and olive oil. My hubby and I super love it, especially my hubby is a pasta lover. If I crave on pasta, I look for this one.

5. Classic Pepperoni Pizza - Premium pepperoni slices, tomato sauce, mozzarella cheese and onions. The all time favorite of my eldest son. He always ask for it every time we visit Figaro
6. Adobo Flakes Kare Kare - Classic Pork Adobo flakes served with java rice and Kare Kare sauce. This comes with a twist, instead of having a bagoong on the side they change it to adobo flakes. The taste of kare kare and adobo blend in one that you'll definitely enjoy.
7. BBQ Pulled Pork Sandwich and Chicken Ceasar Salad Combo - This is truly a perfect combination. I truly love caesar's salad always. While the sandwich blends on the salad, it tastes sweet, those who have a sweet.palate will enjoy this.

8. Hot Choco - I don't know why, but regardless of the food that I eat at Figaro, I always make sure to have the hot choco. My finale, I love their hot choco and this is truly irresistible.

Those are the foods that I really enjoy at Figaro. Mommies, you can have your own list as well, just visit Figaro and try their food offerings. Oh by the way, you can ask also their best seller as well, just as I do every time I visit any resto.
