However, without those little tales, I wouldn't be able to imagine the world that these two lovers reside in. With those stories, Legaspi was able to convince me that there is more to the film than breathing life to the central characters whose dilemma is so unconvincing, it's arguably idiotic, that love makes us irrational, and with that, makes the central romance seem more than what it really is.Oggs Cruzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03041599863258946384noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31058461.post-59789847745343303022010-05-12T17:06:49.703+08:002010-05-12T17:06:49.703+08:00I agree with the conclusion of finding the romanti...I agree with the conclusion of finding the romantic aspect of the story (the element with which the film is most vigorously and mainly marketed with) light and fluffy, cute and different at first but soon wears out. A point of this commentary I rather disagree with is the upraisal of the additives, the accessory subplots that plague this film. I would have rather kept the film as fluffy and light as it was, adding similarly weighted subplots rather than having the intensity of these outweigh the main thrust of the narrative. The inclusion of the weighty, almost dramatically 180-degree turned, eternally dragged offshoots dislodges the initial charm that would have made the film's lightweightedness forgivable.Gershom Chuahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09746952464138127621noreply@blogger.com
