This is a movie I watched a total of three times, and I would probably watch it again.

 Why?  There are many reasons.  One of them is because I am my daddy's girl.  Since he is not in the best of health,  and I know I am just counting the days when the inevitable would happen,  the scenes between Robert Arrevalo and Regine Velasquez became more endearing and heartbreaking, thankfully, not at the same time.  

I shed a lot of tears...  Thankfully, there were lots of light moments. My dad and I sing together too, and we had some beautiful moments together like father-daughter movie dates, trips et cetera so...
🎥🎥🎥
My thoughts are jumbled, so please forgive me if the scenes are mixed-up or something.
🎥🎥🎥
I remember saying out loud in the theatre where I watched this first that they should have made the wedding Anniversary a Pearl Anniversary instead of Silver, but someone from behind said that Aga's role, Vince, might have been born out of wedlock or he was below twenty-five, even if his role was like a boss or something(buti di kami pinalabas ng mga ushers).  

 I think they made Aga and Regine a bit younger here...something like Bobby Andrews' age during that time.  He was barely twenty-five back then, so...

 After the movie I reminded myself that at thirteen(13) I played the role of a grandma, so I should remember that the roles the actors play could also be older or younger, whatever the case may be.
🎥🎥🎥

The places in the movie were so familiar so I felt like I was really there when it all happened.

🎥🎥🎥

There were many beautiful scenes between Vince and Cristina/Christine/Tinay, and my favourite was when they were wrapped in a blanket together.

🎥🎥🎥
It's not a perfect movie, but it leaves lots of beautiful imprints in one's heart.

The cast:


 Aga Muhlach ... Vince, main protagonist
Regine Velasquez ... Cristina
Bobby Andrews ... Bert
Robert Arevalo ... Papa
Sherilyn Reyes ... Annie
Bojo Molina ... Victor
Charlie Davao ... Mr. Pascual
Evangeline Pascual ... Mrs. Pascual
Ricci Ocampo ... Krystal/Krystel

Dencio Padilla Jr. ... Jun
Marie Barbacui ... Daphne (as Mari Barvicui)
Rufa Mae Quinto ... Peachy (incidentally, it's her real pet name/nickname)
Jaya ... (lead vocals, live band) She's a great singer...simply one of the best...but I just thought it was in bad taste to sing at a wedding anniversary BAKIT NGAYON KA LANG? unless it means something to the couple like theme song or whatever.  
Trinity M. Stiles ... Dita

EX with BENEFITS (2015) R-13

How do I describe this movie without giving spoilers?  Hmm.  Let me think.  Ah, I think I know how.  Directed by Gino M. Santos Written by Jeff Stelton and Keiko Aquino Loosely based on or inspired by the  Wattpad   sensation by  youramnesiagirl  of the same title, is a story of finding your self worth and about living.  It's also about relationships not of the romantic kind and about responsibility.  This movie is NOT all about sex.  There's more to it than that .  It also doesn't stereotype med reps and doctors. Things like these  happen whatever profession or non-profession you are in, and even if there are people like that  in real life, we must believe that there are more people who live life with integrity(listen to Carmi Martin's lines somewhere in the movie), so please don't be scared to watch this. This movie is about loving, losing, sacrificing, being selfless et cetera, et ce...

Barbie and Her "Kens" (A Dollywood Title) #TeamYuan #KenBie My bubble was burst when the last scene after the credits was shown.  JEYA (Jai, Ethan, Yuan and Andoy) just woke up from a heavy night and they were wondering what happened then in big bold letters this was shown on the TV screen:  Ano nga ba? SOON! Ngarks. I was already very happy that BARBIE (Forteza as Billie Bendiola) and KEN (Chan as Yuan Lee or Lee Yuan) ended up together.  I even shouted it out via FB(viewed by Friends of Friends) then as I was enjoying the after credits scenes, the very last one was that messy pool scene. Everything was just a dream! Come on! I know it's fiction, but to play with our emotions like that?  That is such BS. If I only knew that they'd do that, I would've finished Father Rio's send off party.  :-p  It's different when people wake up from a nightmare, but my goolai.  Why did they have to make it a dream?  If they want Barbie(a...

When The Love Is Gone (Graded A by the Film Ratings Board) R-13 Romance/Drama- 2013

Official Trailer When I heard Alice Dixson utter the classic infamous line, "Nandiyan ba ang asawa ko, na asawa mo, na asawa ng buong bayan?" in the trailer of WHEN THE LOVE HAS GONE,  I said to myself, "Wait, I've heard that line before!" Or something to that effect.  I was not wrong.  Something similar to those lines were uttered by Laurice Guillen as Delza in NAGALIT ANG BUWAN SA HABA NG GABI (click to read the story written and directed by Danny L. Zialcita...Since the blogger doesn't know the name of the actor who played Antonio Almeda aka UP Boy, I'll tell you that his name is Tommy Alvarado)---more below Alice Dixson, Gabby Concepcion, Cristine Reyes, Andi Eigenmann and Jake Cuenca Source Except for the very long title(in terms of syllables), the movie this one was based on, is very beautiful.  When Janice de Belen played the role of Jenny, I felt her pain...her agony. All of the members of cast f...
