MMFF 2008

I was able to watch four films from the recent Metro Manila Film Festival, which is an annual tradition in the Philippines. Here's how I rank them,

1. Ang Tanging Ina Ninyong Lahat

• Hilarious. I haven't seen the first one, but it won't matter much. I'm not a big fan of AiAi, and still not, as most of the funny quips from the movie came from Eugene Domingo, who should have a movie of her own. No wonder this topped the box office chart.
  

2. One Night Only

• Surprisingly a very nice movie. It is well-written, having the "six degrees of separation," or shall we say sex degrees, concept. Alessandra De Rossi is a stunner. And Manilyn Reynes as a lesbian will surely crack you up! For some reason, I'm somewhat disgusted with Chokoleit and Joross Gamboa. I dunno, maybe the image of Chokoleit performing fellatio to Joross gives me the creeps.
  

3. Shake, Rattle & Roll X

• One word: Nieves.
  

4. Desperadas 2

• Two words: Luga Luda.
  

I refused to watch the other films:

1. Magkaibigan

• Two words: Jinggoy Estrada.
  

2. Baler

• Not feeling this one.
  

3. Dayo

4. Iskul Bukol

• Why watch when there's Eat Bulaga?
