Got to watch the movie "In My Life" by Star Cinema today, the 2nd day of screening.
part of the ticket price paid for in behalf of Citibank's The Reel Deal. Thanks hopefully we get more of these from all other credit card companies...
**might be a spoiler for you***
The movie house was packed with lots of ladies as well as our gay friends and some guys with their special someone, I guess. The movie overall was good, the storyline was great but I guess since the movie has to meet with the rating of MTRCB, and to make the most of Philippine audience market. The director was limited to just letting the actors specifically the 2 main actors namely John Lloyd Cruz and Luis Manzano do some hugging and lip smack (just 1) in the movie.
The movie was a waste that the director was not fully able to let the actors express their emotions in a physical way as I think would be essential in the film... Vilma Santos was as excellent as she could be, never hesitating on her scenes with John Lloyd, John Lloyd provided the perfect chemistry with her. Luis and John has good chemistry though it would have been a lot better if they were able to stretch out and perform more on the screen.
The scenery was great that provided the backgrounder for the movie. A great mix of light-hearted warm moments to dramatically blockbuster moments forever etched in the hearts of many Filipinos.
Finally for all of the Vilmanians and all other fans of the leading characters... Go watch the movie.... Enjoy! It is not everytime these actors are given the chance to work with each other.
And remember to support our Filipino works and lastly DON'T BE A PIRATE!!!
Everything that's happening in the great metro of Manila...
