This movie left a profound impression on me. Despite not typically watching Filipino films, I was astounded by its originality and global competitiveness. Here are some aspects that stood out to me:
1. Emotional Impact: The story was rich in emotions, evoking tears, laughter, and love. It taught me the importance of choosing happiness and finding light even in darkness. I want to express my gratitude to Ms. Singrid Bernardo for creating a film that uplifted my spirits, especially as someone dealing with depression. The movie emphasized that not all smiles indicate happiness, urging viewers to be kind and check on their loved ones regularly.
2. Cinematography: I admired the stunning views and shots that made the scenes visually captivating. 3. Irish (or Janella) portrayed the typical Filipina spirit of resilience, always smiling despite inner struggles.
4. Win or Parin: This character portrayed unwavering love for his mother, showcasing the strength of unconditional love even in difficult times.
5. Chemistry: The chemistry between the characters made me feel "kilig," despite not usually experiencing such emotions. Those who claim they are not a perfect love team must be blind or numb. Or di mahal ng mama nila hahhhahaa !!!! Seriously, the movie evoked a roller coaster of emotions, making me laugh, cry, and feel "kilig" throughout.
6. Cultural Representation: The film beautifully depicted the cultures of both the Philippines and Thailand, showcasing the authenticity of the characters and their stories.
