The actress in this movie was ALSO in a batshit insane comedy called “who’s that girl” where she thinks her college crush died, and she goes to the funeral in black, but it was actually his DAD that died, and now the mom thinks her husband had a mistress and tries to hunt her down.
Cheating is sooo disrespectful. I’d rather someone tell me they’re just not feeling the relationship anymore. Cheating is more complicated. Also, considering you can contract STDs and whatever from cheating, that’s putting your partner at risk. So I agree, you do have to hate someone to put them through all of that.
Ugh, we should leave out that redemption arc and just let the Cheaters go to Hell more often. I'm not even Catholic or Christian anymore(gasp, blasphemy for us Filipinos) but you know what, some people still deserve a realm like Hell.
"Tacky and ghetto and sets the movement back." You got that right. I'm not throwing hands for any man. You want him? Take him. I will be out and moving on. Mmph.
Does anyone have a time stamp of this? I heard this but I wanna hear it again, but sis gave us an hour of content and I didn't even realise til I finished listening.
Her *eating seafood for the edginess of it* as a metaphor is some WILD shit wtf Also, men who let their friends cheat on their partners are only slightly less shitty than their cheating friends
*men who let* There's no letting. What they supposed to do? Tie him up and bleed the cheater outta him? Nothing they can except express disapproval. Maybe unfriend him ionno. But I definitely won't go telling his wife. I'm not gonna die and have an angel telling the lord I had a hand in ending a marriage. That ain't my jurisdiction 🤣
@@danielbriggz But the friend was being unfaithful in the marriage and his wife deserves to know. You'd want to know if your partner was cheating on you, wouldn't you? So you have the choice whether or not to continue that marriage. You're saying it's better to keep silent so the marriage won't end because you don't wanna be "responsible" for ending a marriage??? The cheating friend is the one responsible for that; along with committing adultery which is much worse than ending a marriage, I assure you.
@@joyc.e.7511 I think it depends on how well you even know your friend’s partner. I think most people would try to get their friend to be up front with their partner way ahead of actually picking up the phone and calling someone they aren’t that close to.
@@joyc.e.7511 you'd want to know if your partner was cheating but sometimes somethings shouldn't come from some people and Let's be honest if you're not a shitty person you would care more about your friend than your friend's partner and you would look for the best solution to the problem which is that the truth should come from your friend and not from you..(unless your friend is a toxic person who shouldn't even be your friend in the first place). personally which is better for you?, For the truth to come from your partner or from your partner's friend?
Divorce isn't a thing in the Philippines yet that's probably why the mom tells her to fight. Separation also isn't a thing because if you are caught with another person while married or have kids with them you can be criminally charged for it. Annulment is a thing though but its very difficult to obtain. It could take many years in court and isnt even easy to get.
@@chibee4l Annulments completely invalidate the marriage (basically claims the marriage wasn’t real, ie. Los Vegas marriages). Divorce acknowledges the marriage as valid and just ends it. But yea if divorce wasn’t a option I wouldn’t get married either lol.
@@chibee4l A common way to get a marriage annulled is to claim it was never consummated. This works pretty well due to being hard to prove wrong, unless there's children. A friend's father got two marriages annulled this way before her mother.
@@JasonToddsThighs Pretty sure they’re referencing 2008 Nollywood movie Beyoncé and Rihanna, where the two titular characters fight over Jay-Z. A lovely sample of the level of drama to be found in Nigerian movies.
I agree with Kennie on the whole cheating thing. If someone cheats on me they don't love me they want to hurt me and thats why I could never forgive a cheater.
As a Nigerian, I find it incredibly amusing that Kennie's scale of crazy movies goes from 0 to Nigerian. I'm deceased from laughing. Wrt to eating with your hands, your fingers sort of get used to it. Also, you tend to start eating from the outside of the meal, the center is usually the hottest part.
I swear to God almighty, I'd pay cash for Kennie to do *a podcast commenting on every episode of Desperate Housewives* 🍎🍎🍎🍎🍎 she needs recovery after all these bad movies 🤣
omg that is a GENIUS idea! I just finished bingeing Desperate Housewives (had never seen it before) and having Kennie comment on each episode would be absolute *gold*
Absolutely agree on the cheating rant lmao. So sick of seeing movies, tv, books or whatever show cheating like it’s a romantic thing and like you’re not an absolute shitstain on the taint of the world for doing it. Especially when they try pull the “oh I still love my partner! Things just happened and I made a mistake!” card like nah, that’s not how it works and you do not deserve forgiveness.
Here’s the thing, I won’t judge a person who decides to take back a cheater, and I’ll have compassion for a cheater that does the work and puts in the real effort to repair the relationship, IT COULD NEVER BE ME! Because I would never do that to somebody so for you to cross that line? Gotta go bro. I’ve been cheated on and chose to believe the lies for far too damn long, did the crazy stuff, screaming and crying on the phone etc. Never again chile!
@@clown-cult96 Reminds me of this French film called "Down by Love." I only saw a recap of that movie, but d4mn do I hate that movie so much. Hopefully Kennie will react to the movie in the future.
I am here for the mess here on today! Also the fact there is a Nigerian movie called Beyoncé vs Rihanna that I was forced to watch with my family is taking me out
There's another one that drags Shakira into some mess, too. My mom loved those movies so much, the fam would sometimes be subjected to watching *one singular* narrative for literally the whole afternoon. Ugh, god bless 😂🙈
"he said it was a jellyfish?" * Laughs in my ex tried to excuse a hickey saying he got trampled by baby goats * Kennie spitting facts when she said dumb dudes rlly be dumb worldwide
@@bluz1864 he had an uncle that apparently had goats and he went "to help his uncle" (was actually cheating) and came back with one HUUUGGE purple hickey on his neck and tried to say it was from the baby goats jumping all over him, even his nana tried to gaslight me into believing this bull 😂 and for my own reputations sake I have to point out no I didn't believe it for a second 😂
@@chrissie627 I thought I heard it all before but apparently, there's still more to be heard! Good that he's your ex now. He didn't even try to make it sound convincing.
oh kennie, our content doesnt limit only with movies......telenovelas are another and they are *chefs kiss* absolutely FCKING amzing . the tea, drama and the whole nine yards. how do i know about this....trust me im filipino 😀👍
I commented on some video about how big Filipino telenovelas are in Kenya. I'm Kenyan. There's been a telenovela playing on each station since I was born, and I'm 26 now.
I don't see why Kara got jealous, girl you knew he was married and still pursued him. The way they'd both catch these hands. I'm glad their friends tried to get them to make the right decision, it's not often that the friends get involved. I'd divorce him so fast it would be like we were never married
@@joannecendana well it sucks that divorce isn’t an option, but I’m glad there’s at least one way out? It sounds awful thought having to go through so much legal stuff
@@LaCrownedGamerannulment can only happen if you can prove the marriage isn't valid (for example, saying you never consummated it, which is hard to disagree with unless you have kids) - annulment invalidates ths marriage divorce just ends it
I’m so glad Kennie mentioned that folks can still cheat on you when you’re in a polyam relationships. Too many people conflate cheating and polyamory, and NO! These two things are not the same things *at all*
Kennie: “If there are more like this…” Me (avid watcher of Filipino teleseryes): OH GURL, this is EVERY movie! (Edit) - The reason why Charmaine's mom told her to fight for her man is because there's no other choice for wives in the Philippines. Divorce is not legal, so many women are in the same situation :(
oh also! The reason why Charmaine’s mom tells her to fight for her man is because there isn’t a choice in the Philippines for wives with cheating husbands. Divorce isn’t legal in the Philippines., unfortunately. So many women are in Charmaine’s situation or worse. :(
@@arithmomania1237 divorce isn’t a thing in the Philippines so you’re legally stuck for life. Unless you’re rich enough for an annulment which is mess.
@@kryingkrisna but aren't they rich or at least well off? So theoretically they'd be able to divorce. It's sad that that's a thing as well as the rich don't want to look bad. I feel that is major flaw especially if they can afdord to leave.
The only time you should fight "for" your partner is if they're already in a fight and you jump in to fight alongside them. Unless they're getting beaten up for cheating on you. Then you join the other side.
ok but the reason why the mom said that is bc divorce doesn’t exist in the philippines. annulment is the replacement but it’s a very hard, often long process and virtually impossible unless you are wealthy, so naturally most filipino women stay and try to work out their marriage after their husband has cheated.
Also the only reason I would agree with fighting a woman for your man is if it's over sexual harassment or assault. If this was under completely different circumstances. A heiress having sexual relations with an employ would be a very sticky situation. Especially if the employ didn't really want it. Her threating his job was pretty serious just for them to move past it but I'm not from the Philippines so I don't know how that works legally for them.
You have no idea how many MANY Filipino films are like this. IF NOT ALL OF THEM. Always the third party, always the over shouting, AND INSANE PLOT TWISTS. Girl, you will have a fun time. - a filipino
Ate, I don't remember its title or actors but I remember seeing one where they dragged out supernatural conflicts for the hero & his love interest for 40+ episodes only to kill her off 😭 for good.
Lol, so, Nigerian-American here. I never really thought about this before, but your point about eating with your hands made me think about how I tend to have a higher heat tolerance than others, so maybe that’s part of it
African-Portuguese ~ this makes sooo much sense now, when you visit your motherland countries, have you ever found yourself being really comfortable with the weather? Cause I have to the point I was like this is kinda weird, considering I grew up in England and can’t handle the weather here 😂😂😂
You're right and you should say so! I just broke up with an ain't shit who was cheating on me then tried to say she "had enough love for both of us." Cheating is 100% an act of emotional violence and is completely unforgivable.
This right here. Idc what people say about "pray to make things right" or "keep fighting for the relationship to work" like nah! I'm leaving! I can't stand physical violence, so why should I tolerate emotional violence?! I like my already chaotic mind to be at some ease thank you very much.
I was cheated on by my husband a few years ago, and Charmaine's reaction is 100% authentic. It makes you feel like you were missing something, like somehow you drove them to do it. You might be onto something about how someone wouldn't cheat on you unless they hated you. I never thought about it that way before.
It warms my messy heart to know that such absolute classics like Beyonce: The President's Daughter are being appreciated across the pond. I'm so proud.🤣
I hope she covers it one day - I found a forum that talked about it and it gave me LIFE (mainly the wtfery of it all - the save my soul song was gorg tho, I ripped it from the movie 10 years ago 💀). I can't remember if that was the film where someone's mother was filmed literally for 15 minutes crawling out of the house before dying, but she is 1000% correct that those films are mainly for getting forgetting its taking 6-8 hours to install braids to your scalp 💀 (double that if all the braiders are pregnant 💀 💀)
If you loved this, you should ABSOLUTELY watch 'Etiquette for Mistresses'. There's like five female protagonists, and they're all mistresses for like rich men. There's this new mistress that is being taught the etiquettes of how to be a proper mistress by the other female protag. It's like she's a master to the craft. 😭 That whole movie is just *chef's kiss* I can't tell whether I hate it or love it.
Offff yesss! This movie had me for a loop when it came out. Watched on a laptop in the school quad with my college friends and we were enthralled. Love melodrama.
“I don’t know if I’m accidentally talking to somebody right now..” I stopped ugly crying to stare at the screen. 😭😢😳 I heard you and at the exact time I needed to. Thank you. My (spoiled) husband just flushed our 20 yrs (on Mother’s Day) for worse than “no strings attached”. I married too young. Skeletons have been nonstop flowing from his closest since May. It feels like hatred and definitely resentment for him being loved. Self-hate, daddy issues…the whole F*d Up Bag. I have no more tears for this man but, the embarrassment, disrespect and them wasted 20 yrs tho.
Maybe it's just me and my trauma talking but an ending in the form of "happy baby and we can all wave at each other" ain't enough. Charmaine deserved either a real relationship or a happy single life and the other two can starve But then I'm not a Forgive And Forget type Anyway the hair looked great and the red eyeshadow with yellow/green(?) looked great with it
@@blueismylove3128 I can confirm that and even annulment is difficult for even the richest people because law will still make it hard for you. I'm still having second thoughts about my wedding but it is what it is.
@@blueismylove3128 thank you! I'm fortunate to have a great fiance who understands where I'm coming from but it is what it is; I'm honestly just happy that women here can now more easily keep their maiden names (still hard but much easier) because I built so much for myself na have a short last name. Lol.
I watched this when the movie came out years ago in the Philippines.. I must say, the lines were really spicy especially between the wife and the mistress 😂
As a Filipino subscriber of yours, I freaked when I saw the thumbnail and saw Anne Curtis and the title of the show, and I was like "KENNIE, NO" lol the amount of Trashy (and addicting) "Romance" telenovelas we have centered on asshole men with ridiculously beautiful women fighting over them is depressing 😭😂
To really give it an epic ending, Kara should’ve come back with a baby! Like for picture it with me, Same as the last seen they are at the mall she sees them awkwardly waves, but this time she looks away quickly and tries to leave the area, when a toddler, (lets say she was gone for 3years) runs up to her screaming mummy. And it zooms back to dude and his wife looking on in shock as Kara picks the baby up, and awkwardly looks back at them. Scene. Roll credits! Mate I’d be like waahahhahaa😮😂😂😂😂
I'm pretty late to comment on this but my gosh this movie had the most iconic cheating lines from Anne Curtis (the mistress): "Kiss me but don't you dare fall in love with me" "I don’t need to read your research report. I know the market because I am the market." "You can call me anything you want: a snake, a bitch, an other woman. But I will never be a pathetic, boring housewife." I don't know if they included those in the dub but dang she's an iconic mistress that's for sure 🤣 Ps. I love your commentaries always has me dying 🤣🤣
"Four Sisters and a Wedding" is one of the more iconic films in Filipino Pop Culture. Basically, it's five siblings (4 sisters, 1 little brother), and when the youngest sibling is about to get married, the sisters try to stop their brother from getting married and chaos ensues (along with sibling dynamic therapy). One scene in the entire movie is filled with meme-able quotes that so many people I know still mention them just because it was so relatable.
My favorite thing about cheaters irl, is how the new girl/ mistress, even if she gets the man, he’s forever tainted in her eyes, because she knows what he’s capable of. Knowing that, if I were the wife with a rich daddy, I’d have the mistress over for dinner, explain that I know what’s going on, give him a pre packed bag, and say take him, I don’t want him anymore, he’s broken. Let her take care of this man baby because im done, if she wants to spend time worrying where he’s at and what he’s up to, enjoy! I will be on a several months long global vacation, eat pray and loving life. He doesn’t get a choice, he doesn’t get to pick, I leave him and her to feel like she’s second best, because he can’t have me.
@@Shortandnerdyy well yikes. What was the mistresses plan then? Just keep hooking up? Maybe convince him to abandon her and move in together? I guess the wife could still move out, and live abroad. Stop payments on the property and leave him to fend for himself. Im sorry this just left me so concerned for dv in the Philippines😰 just YIKES
@@digitalhuman5943 my uncle’s wife cheated on him with several different married men. They are separated and the kids live with my uncle while she is going around finding new jobs and new men to date. She can never marry any of those guys because they don’t have the money to get an annulment. This is why many people in the Philippines don’t get legally married, they just live together and have kids until one of them wants to leave.
@@Shortandnerdyy well that sounds safer than getting married! I mean, what do people do if they’re in an abusive marriage? In the US divorce has been a literal life saver, for dv victims, are woman in the Philippines more vulnerable because there’s no way to end their marriage?
@@digitalhuman5943 Unfortunately, yes. There’s not a lot of options for DV victims. It’s ludicrous how we’re one of the only countries where divorce is illegal.
"Oh, I didn't know you had any kids-" "I don't. 👀I can. We can get to working on it." Barely 10 minutes in and I am once again profoundly delighted. Please keep up the excellent work, miss.
Yess!!! I been telling people to watch filipino dramas cause they’re craaazzyy 😭 you should watch “Starting Over again”, the “you changed my life” series and any kathreen bernardo and Daniel padillia movie
Kenny you're rant on cheating opened my eyes a little. I'd always stuck by that cheaters don't deserve forgiveness & that it's not a mistake but a series of choices, but I do see that they do have to hate you even just a little bit to hurt you like that.
DAMMIT. Kennie’s makeup looks too damn good. I was mesmerized the whole time she was saying “No one but you, babe” around 34 mins in. This is a newly realized fear of women that I should add to my reasons why I’m afraid of women and haven’t dated any despite being extremely bisexual/pansexual.
kennie, u don't understand, i was half asleep before i saw this in my notifs and now i'm WIDE awake. this feels like an early christmas present. i can say this as a mainland filipino: i personally find our movies & teleseryes that are like this-supposedly serious, overdramatic, excruciatingly formulaic, misogynistic, *very* toxic-to be MUCH funnier than our actual comedies (which tend to rely on mostly bigotry & harassment tbh at least these are hard to take seriously). this one is definitely a classic and it's an example of what usually gets made into memes here. i vaguely remember watching this movie at an inappropriately young age but couldn't really remember much because *_so_* many of our movies/teleseryes have the exact same premise, so you get confused on which scene or dialogue came from which. i've honestly been meaning to go back and watch more of the Questionably Written Yet Somehow Applauded local movies that i saw as a kid. trust me that this probably isn't even the messiest lmao. i do recommend another film of anne curtis (kara) called *THE GIFTED* (which has some classic pinoy fatphobia, but god, its script was awful that it's hilarious) and another with different actors titled *SHE'S DATING THE GANGSTER* starring our country's most famous TV couple. it was praised so heavily but once you look back on it... Very Problematic. honestly could say that about 98% of our romance movies. would recommend going through each actor's catalogue to find that a good chunk of them is just Mess. but yeah, very excited for non-filipinos to witness the absurdity-/lh and said with love!-of some of our local movies (tho some cultural things that might only be understandable or humorous to us might be confusing). *EDIT:* oh wow that was much more emotional than i remember 😭 btw, there's actually one cheating-centric teleserye that had the gall to kill off the main dude and the scenes between the wife & mistress where they were preparing his funeral were just unintentionally hilarious lmao and i agree 100% with everything that u said about cheating - it sucks filipinos here tend to value forgiveness (usually due to catholic guilt) so they easily forgive their cheating partners regardless of the pain they've caused. hell, divorce is incredibly looked down upon here. that's why the ending is like *that.*
I feel the Forgiveness bit so much. We usually get called to forgive and forget personal issues like abusive family members - to heavy societal issues like corrupt politicians, their incompetency and even a dictator's dynasty..
not me crying over the very true statement "if someone cheats on you, they have to hate you. because there is no way someone that loves you would risk you feeling like this" like damn, spitting facts but it still hurts
The redemption arch I would have loved would’ve been Ram getting therapy and running his business, Sharmane living her best life like she deserves, and Karah finding a man that loves her for her.
Girl, you are on your knees begging a married man to not leave you AFTER HE JUST FLIPPED A TABLE AND MANHANDLED YOU. DO NOT CHASE HIM. he just might accidentally (on purpose) kill you. He flipped a dining table. This isn’t Trixie Mattel knocking over set dressing with her foot. He raged. You push that table up against the door and spend the night hiding in your closet and calling hotel security and the cops.
45:55 Honestly Kara feels like an example of what I call Lazy-Writing Induced Hypocrisy, her saying "Don't catch feelings" and then getting feelings could've worked if it was partially as a result of her own personal flaws, like envy. Maybe she was so envious of Charmaine, not of the marriage but because she saw a woman with her man and when someone has something she wants she takes it to hurt them. Kara feels like Amber from Invincible, in that she was just supposed to break up with Mark so he gets with Atom Eve, same reason why Rex cheated on Eve with Kate.
I'm from Ethiopia...the key to eating our food is that the Injera (flat sour bread) is cold/room temperature and then the wot (stew) is hot so you do not touch it directly you use the injera as the transportation to your happy palettes. Maybe you've seen it in Insecure, they eat at the Ethiopian restaurant on season 1
Fun fact about eating foods your allergic to: sometimes they don’t taste good!! Whenever I eat something I’m allergic to I can always tell somethings off because the food gives your mouth a very unpleasant, tingly itchy sensation right after swallowing it. Your body can also re-create this feeling whenever you eat the same type of food again, regardless of if it actually has an allergen in it the next time you eat it. TLDR; eating foods your allergic to isn’t pleasant while eating it, let alone after when your throwing your guts up and are now put of that specific dish you ate forever.
I'm lactose intolerant and I wish dairy didn't taste so damn good 🤤🤤🤤. My brain knows it's bad for me, but my heart wants cheesecake and you always follow your heart.
Same! I once had a piece of chicken that tasted way off and made my tongue feel itchy the second it hit my mouth. Turns out the dish had chicken and shrimp mixed together and the way that the shrimp was fried made it look like chicken. Paid for my mistake in the bathroom a minute later
I had this with kiwis! I liked the taste but the tingling it left was annoying. When I heard people discuss pineapple allergies being that way for them I was like: Hang TF on... I have that with kiwis! For as long as I remember. It took me nearly 2 & a half decades to find out but hey at least I know it now
@@blueismylove3128 I’d imagine that’s because there’s no oral component to lactose intolerance and is only a failure to digest dairy, and not and active reaction against it. Sounds like both a blessing and a curse lol
When you said “To cheat you have to hate the person” it reminds me of a family member who regularly cheats, and full on relationships with other women behind his girlfriend’s back. But the reality is he wants to break up with her but he can’t have those hard emotional conversations. So if someone cheats it’s bc they aren’t the one for you. They aren’t content, they need to be let go, there’s no fixing it usually.
Being a serial cheater bc you couldn't have the nerve to break up with your SO is one of the most yellow bellied, lily livered wussy shit someone can do. Bc constantly betraying someone's trust is way more comfy than outright letting them go.
My stepmom has a seafood allergy and basically it apparently gets progressively worse every time you eat it. Starts with diarrhea and vomiting, then you get hives and then you can go into anaphylactic shock. So every time you eat it, it’s a bigger risk.
@@blueismylove3128 she thought it was food poisoning at first and only noticed the pattern at the time she got the hives. Also, she didn’t figure it out, her doctor told her that’s how it works.
Hey kennie, you should watch "willy wonderland" staring Nicolas Cage. It's a horror movie that is hilarious bad. P.S. I love all your videos and have re-watch all your Bad Movie and a Beat along with some of you get ready with me
Oh welcome to the Derek Ramsey (Ram) cinematic universe. For some reason the guy actor is typecasted in these kinds of movies here. There is actually a movie where the mistress here (Ann Curtis) is his wife.
I was just cheated on by a long term boyfriend whose now a ex, cheating is one of the worst things you can do to someone and your right about it being like that person has to hate you so the words in this video are spot on so thank you for making me laugh and the kind words. I always enjoy watching you react and explain movies.
I wasn’t expecting this video to be so heavy on my heart. As someone who’s been cheated on, this video definitely triggered some old feelings but you’re not wrong in any of ya words. No amount of ass, boobs, personality, or skills will stop someone from cheating. Man it still hurts but that thought does make me feel better.
Ram’s male friend in this movie reminds Windows warning you not to skip software updates, and when you do, viruses happen (or in Ram’s case, an eventual STD LOL)
the quickness with which you switch from being angry to being completely calm when talking about cheating men always reminds me of that one moment in Community where Shirley goes “the word he’s looking for is sassy… he better pray he don’t find it” dldhbfkffj
As a Filipino, I'm gagged you're reviewed this haha! This was phenomenal and talked about back then 'cause Filipinos love to resonate with the underdog housewife beating the hell out of the mistress villain haha! That's why its a staple storyline in every movies and series up to this today!
I highly recommend that you look into the bad movies on the international circuit! The bad movies in Nollywood and Latin America (including the telenovelas) will have you set for life!
lool South African here, we eat with our hands mostly, you just learn how to wait a little bit before you dive in so you don't 'drop it'. With food like pap (which is loosely similar to fufu, it's made from finely gound corn) you 'pull' it apart into kinda bite sized pieces which you roll into a ball and leave it on the side.. You do a few and then you rotate back to the first ball you made and then dip _that_ into the relish. The idea behind doing it systemically like that is to give each ball time to sufficiently cool down so you don't burn youself when you dip it into the relish, put it in your mouth or swallow. BC having a huge steaming chunk of food go down your throat is the worst experience. You actually feel it burn down your esophagus -_-
QUEEN. Yes. Thank you so much for mentioning the polyamorous aspect in the end. I'm polyam and in a relationship. We both set parameters that we respect and we discuss when needed, even if just for reassurance. The name of the game is CONSENT and RESPECT. Also the part of not forgiving someone but able to let go of them, to overcome the hatred.
I haven't even watched this whole review and I already know it's gonna be a mess. Filipino movies are ALWAYS cheesy, dramatic, and a complete mess. Maybe that's why my mom loves them 😂
LOL, that "Why?!" at the wedding ring part had me rolling. The follow up of, "I barely fight for my own mental health!" is gonna live in my head rent free for at least a year. Quality content!
Filipino here. :D This movie was explosive when this was released on cinemas, being a very talked about film because of the performance of the actors and actresses and also because of the plot. It was made in a period of time in Philippine cinema wherein a lot of movies made revolved around infidelity. Even TV shows would amp up the drama factors in their "kabitserye" or mistress TV series. I recommend The Mistress, one of my favorite Filipino films made if you're looking for a good plot. However, if you like messy camp movies, I recommend: The Gifted, When The Love Is Gone, The Love Affair and A Secret Affair.
