My Father, Myself (MMFF 2022)
Directed by: Joel Lamangan
A man is in a romantic relationship with his stepsister, but he is deeply in love with his foster father.
Who will he choose ?
His father, his sister… or himself ?
The movie feeds us with all the drama. The plot is chaotic. The lines are shocking. The scenes are feisty.
Mapanukso. Mapangahas. Matapang.
Kilala si Jake Cuenca bilang maangas, ngunit iniba niya ang paraan ng kanyang pag-arte para sa pelikulang ito. Ramdam mo ang pagka-hinhin ng kanyang kilos at salita na siyang nababagay para sa kanyang karakter.
Tingin pa lang ni Dimples Romana ay sapat na para makuha mo ang mensahe. Kita mo sa kanyang mga mata ang selos, duda at lungkot. Mabait siyang asawa rito, pero dapat abangan ang eksena kung saan siya’y sumabog na, dahil mapapasigaw ka rin dito.
Hindi bagay maging attorney sina Sean de Guzman at Tiffany Grey. Puro kalandian ang bukambibig ni Tiffany Grey. Panay kahibangan ang nasa isip ni Sean de Guzman. Hindi man lang sila naglaan ng oras para pag-usapan ang mga batas at ang mga kaso.
Andaming mga karakter na nagmamahalan sa pelikula, pero hindi ramdam kung paano ito nabuo. Magugulat ka na lang na may halikan at hubaran na pala, kahit wala namang kwento sa likod nito.
Having relationships that are too complex, the movie should handle the characters with care—which they failed to do.
Having a story that’s extremely controversial, the movie should aim to educate and enlighten—which they failed to give.
With all its absurdity, the movie’s primary goal is to bring noise and to stir controversy.
Andiyan lang ang pelikula para pag-usapan.
At duon na natapos ang kanilang hangarin.
