My Househusband, Ikaw Na!
Plot / Synopsis

When Rod (Ryan Agoncillo), a father of two decided to quit his job, his wife (Judy Ann Santos) eventually decides to pursue a life of a career woman. As if this arrangement was not difficult enough (for an ordinary middle class Filipino family) for the two loving couple, a new neighbor (Eugene Domingo) comes along which may possibly put the couple's marriage to the test. That plus the malicious rumors spread by neighbors and the meddlesome relatives of each party. Thus the comedy ends and the family drama begins.

My Househusband, Ikaw Na! Trailer Review

Filipinos have a strong affiliation and love to their families. So when you put two highly a list of highly acclaimed and adored actors into a film about family, then that is one perfect mix of a Metro Manila Film Fest Entry this 2011.

The trailer is pretty much straightforward, husband loses job, wife gets an executive position, and the couple struggle with the arrangement not usually seen on traditional Filipino families. You can obviously tell where the drama would come from the trailer alone... via its meddlesome relatives (which has always been the case for most Filipino families). But that is what Filipino movie goers like... the reality of married life; and the the joys and complications that goes with it. Thanks to the real life chemistry of Judy Ann and Ryan, plus the funny and lovable aura of Ms. Eugene Domingo the movie trailer is just oozing with appeal. But do not let the humor shown in the trailer fool you as it could just hide a more heavy drama inside it. A very easy recommendation for Pinoy Movie Blogger.
