My rating: 5 stars

I watch the movie to see the setting of the movie (Cuyo Island), maganda raw kasi...I wasn't disapointed, maganda nga. OK mag photo ops. I love the rocks, the sea and the sky.
I am giving this movie a perfect score. It's been so long since last time that I saw a good Filipino movie and I must say its one of the best. It's a story of a woman and a child. Very touching story pero hindi puro iyakan.
Great casting, bagay sila sa mga roles. Di masyadong OA si JudyAnn sa role nya. Medyo nakulangan lang ako dun sa bidang lalaki, may mga bitiw ng lines na hindi masyadong convincing. Nice kasi di rin masadong mushy/ at di puro hagulgulan ang storyline... everything is just right! The setting and cinematography is also good.
This is not another typical Filipino storyline. Ayoko munang masyadong magcomment since I might end giving spoilers for those who haven't seen the movie yet.
Cornie na kung cornie, but give a Filipino movie a chance.
Watch it! And watch it with someone na hindi masyado madaldal sa loob ng movie house since you need to read sub-tittle sometimes else, try to see it alone.
The movie is really good and the setting is really nice, I hope I could come to Cuyo sometime.

Cuyo is in Palawan. Yeah, watch it... really nice. Don't expect TOO much though. Cause some people expect too much after reading high rated movie review and they end up dissapointed. ;)
This is not an average type of movie, sayang since Indie Film ito, di masyado na promote.

Nanood din ako. At first I was having a hard time understanding what they are saying kasi pinipilit kong intindihin yung sinasabi nila without reading the subtitle. May hawig kasi yung salita nila sa dialect namin. Pero mga 5mins I gave up and nagbasa na lang ako.. :) Hmmm.. my rating.. OK lang sya. I didn't expect too much naman kasi.

Since everytime I watched a movie I tried to grasp some catching lines.. this is my list from the movie.

Mylene: Basta ako pinapangako sa sarili ko ayoko ng masaktan dahil nagmamahal ako
Judy Ann: eh di parang sinabi mo na rin na ayaw mo ng magmahal.

Mylene: Kung may inaantay ka pero di mo naman alam kung babalik pa siya anong tawag dun?
Judy Ann: Nagmamahal..

Meryl: Kung naging matalino siguro ako, hindi ako naging ganito kababaw at kasaya..
