YUNG LIBRO SA NAPANUOD KO

Yung Libro Sa Napanuod Ko (SMMFF 2023)

Directed by: Bela

A girl meets boy and a lot in between.

Maayos umarte ang dalawa, pero pilit ang chemistry nila. Hindi sila nagtutulungan para mas maging maganda ang kanilang samahan. Ang tamlay ng mga eksena, kahit nagtatawanan na sila.

Wala kang maramdaman sa pinapanuod mo kundi pagod, kaya sa scoring na lang sila umaasa para pakiligin ka o kabahan ka sa mga nangyayari. Ngunit mas magandang marinig sana ang emosyon at ang pinagdaraanan ng mga karakter kaysa sa malakas at mapanapaw na tunog ng musika.

The visuals are dull. The storytelling is dragging.

The execution is emotionally draining.

The film focuses too much on how to present its story in the most creative way. In doing so, its heart and sincerity got lost along the way.

It tries to be edgy by putting lots of flashbacks, fastforwards and plottwists. In the end, it loses the chance to impart a sensible journey for the characters.

The script has the potential to capture hearts and minds. There’s an effort to share a different kind of love story. When you read the subtitles without looking at the scenes, the lines can be moving.

Perhaps, the story is best read than seen.

Yung Pelikula na Sana’y Nabasa Ko na lang

kaysa sa Napanuod Ko.
