Litrato Film Trailer Review


What can be said about the Litrato (2023) official movie trailer? Litrato seems to be another promising family drama film with a dash of comedy as hinted in the trailer with the seemingly unlikeable protagonist (Ai-Ai delas Alas). It makes you wonder as to where is that memorable photograph Ai-Ai's senile elderly character's daughter and grand-daughter is and what happened to her beloved family. The film doesn't seem to focus on the dementia aspect like most of its contemporaries do when using the elderly as the central character. The film has an all-star cast of noteworthy seasoned actors and actresses, with some fresh faces like Quinn Carillo. Who is and where are the remaining family members of Ai-Ai's character? Those questions are what will drive interest for the film besides its cast and superb performance.
I am going on a tangent here but is still relevant to Filipino films in general. There should be more aggresive marketing and detailed press release for Filipino films. I have to really dig deep within the 316 Media Network's official Facebook Page to find the Litrato (2023) official movie poster which then cite the story, screenplay and other critical details of the film. Beyond a critically acclaimed director (Luisito Lagdameo Ignacio), I genuinely believe that story and screenplay writers should also be mentioned in the same breath, along with the actors. This is why I always make it to a point to scrounge up details to complete the information behind a particular film. Writers are crucial and can make or break a film. Litrato is a story by Louie Ignacio (the film's actual director) with screenplay by Ralston Jover. It also wouldn't hurt, if the marketing team can cite some plot or synopsis to give us an idea on who or what to expect in the film. All in all, Litrato is a promising Filipino family film that I would encourage people to consider watching when it hits theaters on the 26th of July.
How about you guys? What do you think about this 2023 drama-comedy starring Ai-Ai delas Alas and Quinn Carillo? What is your fondest memory of your grandmother? Will you be seeing this 2023 filipino movie on cinemas nationwide this July 26, 2023? Share your thoughts and opinion about Litrato (2023) in the comments section below and let's talk about it.

Feelennial Film Trailer Review


What can be said about the Feelennial (2019) official movie trailer? Well, it seems like another standard Filipino romantic comedy film usually involving people over their 40s, it just happens to be that this time they choose to go with AiAi Delas Alas and Bayani Agbayani. One recent one that comes to mind is 2015's My Bebe Love: #KiligPaMore, but unlike that one this romantic film solely focuses of the love story of two people over their 40s rather than them being on the sidelines.




Being the veteran Filipino comedic actors that they are, Ai-Ai and Bayani managed to create these likable characters in the movie. The protagonists, to me at least, have good chemistry. A typical story of a hostile relationship at first, but eventually blossoms into something romantic. This time this plot uses what is hip and cool with the millennial generation (drum rolls)... "social media", thus why it is named Feelennial (feeling millennial).


How about you guys? What do you think about this 2019 romcom film about finding love over at 40? What are similar films like this that you have seen and liked in the past? What do you think about the Ai-Ai Delas Alas and Bayani Agbayani comedic love team in Feelennial? Will you be seeing this 2019 romantic comedy Filipino movie when it hits the theaters?

Our Mighty Yaya Film Trailer Review


What can be said about Our Mighty Yaya (2017) official movie trailer? Well, it is your typical light-hearted family film focusing on an exemplary nanny for children belonging to an uptight high class family. But of course, to emphasize the uniqueness of this role model of a nanny, they have to make her look ghoulish by making her skin tone darker, an improper set of teeth, and lacking the necessary education... everything of what you can expect from your stereotypical nanny figure from the province (caricature for comedic effect because why not). Well the only difference is that it is not mainly a dramatic film but don't misinterpret it as so as most of these kinds of film will have its fair share of moments that will thug on the heartstrings as what is expected of movies under this theme. The film will join the ranks of other nanny-themed titles like Anak (2000), Inang Yaya (2006), Yaya and Angelina: The Spoiled Brat Movie (2009), and the internationally screened and acclaimed "Ilo Ilo" (2013).


Initially, I thought that there would be more of this film under this theme (the exemplary nanny stories), but to my surprise only a few came from my basic search; that this genre of (family) drama was done to death just like the rich guy-poor girl or rich girl-poor guy romantic films. Or maybe that is just that, many of the films that we have seen usually from romance and horror have these basic stereotype. Or maybe ABS-CBN's popular "Please Be Careful With My Heart" television series has grown on everyone. Well at least that daytime soap didn't had the audacity to stereotype the nannies as uneducated ghoulish looking one. Maybe, most of those belonging to the middle class, and upper class grew up with nannies and can entirely relate to this theme. Even if they belong to the lower class, if they themselves are a nanny or their family member is an actual nanny, maybe this is what makes it relatable to them. The question is do the ugly nanny with a heart of gold makes for an interesting and entertaining film? Well, that is what might (or might not) be answered on Our Mighty Yaya. We'll make sure to observe and make a criticism of that as the years past by or if the local film studios decides to start milking such themes as from what we have seen so far they "mostly have been on the look out to revolutionize" film making in the Philippines..


How about you guys? What do you think about this film about ghoulish looking stereotype of a nanny from the province but with a heart of gold?

Official My Bebe Love: #KiligPaMore Trailer Impression
My Bebe Love: #KiligPaMore Film Trailer Review


What can be said about the My Bebe Love: #KiligPaMore official movie trailer? Well it is the debut film of the very popular AlDub (or MaineDen) love team from the Kalyeserye segment of the Philippine's longest running noontime variety show Eat Bulaga. That is basically the biggest catch and hype for this 2015 MMFF romantic comedy film; that this is the first movie where fans will see Alden Richards and Maine Mendoza outside of their usual Kalyeserye (Eat Bulaga) character as Alden and Yaya Dub. The My Bebe Love: #KiligPaMore teaser trailer was first released on the Tamang Panahon concert which filled Philippines biggest indoor arena, The Philippine Arena and broke previous trending records in Twitter. Given such facts, one can safely say that My Bebe Love: #KiligPaMore will be an instant blockbuster this 41st Metro Manila Film Festival.


Now that we have gotten some basic facts out of the way, we now come down to the juicier part, the story. Just humor me. Have you ever encountered a local romantic film that featured two couple so in love with each other but the only problem is their families which is completely against it? Yup, I guess so. Well, there are variation to this cliched theme which could either lead to a good or bad (tragic) ending. Obviously, My Bebe Love: #KiligPaMore is going for the latter with a dead giveaway that Vic Sotto (Maine's father in the film) eventually falling for Ai-Ai de las Alas (Alden's aunt in the film) which will eventually give their approval in the end. One can argue that it is not the destination, but more of the journey itself is what is worth experiencing and this is why this movie will be successful. Eat Bulaga's marketing influence and pair it up with the "kilig" factor brought by the on-screen team-up is what fans will be looking forward to see in this seemingly formulaic film once it hits December 25, 2015. The "look" of the film through this official trailer feels so underwhelming as it is of low-quality or maybe there will be a bump up to the overall picture quality and cinematography once it is on theaters, but for now this looks and shouts low quality and budget. I can compare or equate this film to another 2015 MMFF entry, Haunted Mansion. Haunted Mansion, which by the way has better cinematography from its trailer alone, will also debut another love team (MarNella), but instead of using the romcom genre like My Bebe Love: #KiligPaMore, Haunted Mansion will be using horror. Both have cliched themes with a fresh coat of paint.


How about you guys? Are you looking forward to the first film of the AlDub love team? For a non-fan of Eat Bulaga or the Kalyeserye are you curious to see this given that you are a fan of romantic and romantic comedy film? What do you think of the AlDub love team in general now that it has reach this point from its initial August 2015 initial introduction to Eat Bulaga?

Sisterakas Trailer Impressions: Vice Ganda and Ai-Ai Delas Alas Whacky Comedy Team-Up Film for the 2012 MMFF

Let's check out Star Cinema's latest wacky film starring their own blockbuster queens in this 2012 MMFF entry.

Sisterakas

Sisteraka Film Trailer Review

ABS-CBN's three box office "queens" (yes, I already included Vice in the count) will be seen this 2012 MMFF with Star Cinema and Viva Films comedy entry entitled Sisterakas. Sisterakas mixes Ai-Ai and Vice with the direction of Wenn Deramas which potentially may result to another comic blockbuster. I just don't know if including Kris Aquino into this very unlikely genre will make it work for her?

There is always a first as most say. Seeing how she parody herself from the (horror) movies and tv show hosting references its either hit or miss. The main focus of the film is the relation of Ai-Ai and Vice so at least they got most of the comedy covered. We also have Kathryn Bernardo and Daniel Padilla which would bring the kilig and potentially the plot device that would potentially drive the two half-sisters into conflict or reconciliation. This is another comedy that doesn't take itself too seriously (and why should it). With classic face-to-face confrontation scene (shown in the trailer) where Vice offers an higher than usual rate for her unbeknownst sister and then Kris counters that offer with a more over-the-top salary and benefits just to get Ai-Ai to work for her indicates that this is one of those more familiar type of comedy (probably because it is from the same director) we've seen through the ages. Will it be smart? Maybe. But one thing is certain it looks more hilarious than the other 2012 Metro Manila Film Festival comedy entries.
