I liked this film because it reflected the problem in our
environment, specifically, pollution. It is a serious problem since the city is
affecting the province and sadly it just gets worse. It is really an existing problem in the Philippines,
and only little actions are being executed.
This film showed the poverty of
some Filipinos, as some would go as low as selling their bodies to earn money
or stealing a phone and end up going to jail. These acts were very courageous but also
very desperate. Also, the film informs the audience not just about prostitution but also about having multiple sex partners as it can inherit incurable diseases such as Herpes. The power of friendship was also reflected in the film, since the group of friends were always together through good and bad times, and the
power to change for the common good also, specifically when one of the group of
friends became a preacher and served God.
The theme of the story was okay, as it was a combination of drama, comedy and romance. It has some scenes though that are not suitable for the young audiences and requires an open mind to those who are of older audience. The plot was clear, although requires a specific understanding and a mature, also open mind to comprehend some of the scenes that can happen also not just in the low class but also in the higher class so as not to judge them. Main and supporting characters had their roles clear and showed importance each. The setting was good as it can relate to the problem of pollution in the waters, how the wastes and trash can cross from city to province and how it affects the lives of those who are living there. Overall, this film was also a good one! - MANONGTONG, Grace S. |
