Pick Flick: Babe I Love You

What a cheesy poster. Well, a cheesy poster for a cheesy movie, ya? They could have done so much better with the poster. Anubah! Although I did enjoy the movie. I never had any expectations for this movie as it was a last-minute movie trip with my sister. After a crispy pata lunch, we were thinking of what more could we do to make Easter Sunday extra special~ watch this movie. Riiiight.

Three Things About Babe, I Love You:

1. I think Anne Curtis is a good actress. Never mind that I can still oh-so-vividly remember her first appearance on TGIS as that rose-peddling girl with an annoying twang. But she has gone a long, long way since that and her Magic Kingdom days. And love it that she speaks Tagalog impeccably.

2. As opposed to Sam Milby who still has that American accent. Puhleeze, he has been milking Philippine showbiz and the Filipino audience for years now and what better way to show your appreciation than to learn to speak the language.

3. I know it's very judgmental of me to think that a relationship like theirs isn't viable in real life, but really, would you still respect your vice-dean if you found out that he's dating a promo girl whose job description may include sleeping with the client if the price is right? I am not making a generalization here as to all the promo girls, but talking about the movie... she can't even keep count na nga as to how many men she has slept with for money. Plus, he has an uber-critical mom who is very well-respected as well. You know what, I think I (semi) know someone in a similar position. Ya, it may seem cute in the movies but in real life, I could be very well singing a Kanye song right now...

4. Woohoo! to Star Cinema for not using wigs in this movie but boohoo! for still using a line from a popular song as its title. I wanna strangle everyone who was singing "babe, I love you" on their way out of the cinema, including my sister. Waaah! You're one of them!
That's all, short but sweet. Haha. Watched it almost a week ago and last full show pa so medyo wala na ako sa kamalayan so there wasn't much I can remember about the movie except that I enjoyed it. Although the ending was open-ended and I am not a big fan of open-ended endings because I am a person who needs some kind of closure. Chos.

Next Star Cinema movie out is the Gabby and KC movie. Pass muna ako. Not even a free ticket would make me watch that one. I will not let myself undergo unnecessary torture.
