In the Name of The Mother
0 oamenii au considerat această recenzie utilă
oh the love of a mother...
the story focuses on the life of carmen and her family after the death of her ex husband.it's a story about how far a mother is willing to go to fight for her kids and how big a mother's love can be.
the pace of the film was ok. the actors/actresses did well with their respective roles. especially ms. snooki! she was perfect as carmen.
there's not much i can say i disliked about "in the name of the mother" except maybe the ending was kinda predictable but i do have to say i was still a bit shocked as the events leading up to that moment was good at keeping me at the edge of my seat wondering if its gonna end the way i thought it would
but overall, the predictability of the ending was rather underwhelming and wished it had taken a different route. however, i do understand why it had to end like that.
all in all,
in the name of the mother is a relatable story for many moms out there. it was definitely a tear jerker and a rollercoaster of emotions.
please show some love to your mom while you still can 💐 and if you can't here's a reminder that you are eternally loved 💞

the film had a statement to make!
what i liked+ the story of this film shines light on the corruption that goes on with the authoritative figures of society
+ the actors were convincing in their roles. the cast nailed their characters
+ the setting of the film was giving modern coming-of-age. in scenes like at their gigs and the car ride leading up to the events but then it builds up and becomes intense yet still maintaining a somewhat cool tone. the film gives a glimpse of what could have gone wrong without becoming extremely disturbing if they did not have their said privileges (police brutality is way worse irl)
what i didn't like
- cussing was overused in my opinion and at times, it felt quite cringe because was it necessary to add "f*ck/ing" at certain dialogues? i get that they're supposed to be edgy and relatable to the youth today but the script writing could have been better in that aspect BUT i must say and slight spoiler coming ahead...
i'm paraphrasing here but it hit when jk said "kung hindi sa pangalan nya, makakalaya ba kami dito?" #shook
that was something that stuck with me at the end.
overall,
i recommend blue room. however, it is heavy and should not be watched around children.
blue room definitely had me pondering upon issues that our society faces when one becomes drunk with power.

watched this film tonight and this is what i think!
what i liked+good acting. the main characters, jane + rk.. they brought marge & mike to life. i must say though i feel like everyone portrayed their characters really well. side note: i just found out on this website that jane was one of the screenwriters, no wonder she nailed it as marge! :)
+ i also enjoyed the visuals of the film! the scenes at the beach and the place they met was something they went back to. given that this film was made in 2020 (or atleast released idk), the use of their locations was well done
+ music was nice. very mellow and suitable for the mood the film is setting us up for
+ tbh the plot twist was quite unexpected. i think it was unique for an overused trope that i've seen in newer filipino drama/romance films. i don't wanna spoil anything so i guess you'll know what i mean when you've watched it. so i do appreciate the plot twist :)
what i didn't like
- well, the story of the film mostly. the premise was intriguing. a struggling artist and med student meeting again after they've shared a connection at the church. it would have been nice to see how their relationship unfolded in a different way. but i guess these things do happen (for the most part) and i can appreciate that ana's character was solid until the end.
overall,
i enjoyed "us again" and i do recommend this to watch if you're thinking about it or need recreational sobbing :)

underrated show
i have vague memories of this tv series since its a sitcom from around 2006. i found the full episodes on youtube and rewatched it now that i'm older and i must say this is some top tier sitcom. one of the funniest ever produced of this genre in the philippine media.it tells a story of friendship, love, heartbreak and shenanigans. its hard to pick a favorite character since they're all unique and relatable in their own ways.
Let's Go is such a funny show. watching it in 2024, i definitely also sense a lot of nostalgia in each episodes... the fashion, the technology, the way people were, and the humor!
i really love this show. a reunion would be amazing but regardless. i hope everyone who was part of Let's Go is doing well nowadays !
forever my favorite sitcom 💙💚❤️
