Christmas is the best way to celebrate ‘Love’ and
‘Abundance’. Philippines is the only country I know who celebrate Christmas
season as a festive occasion. Streets are all lit up, cheers and carols are
sung, and malls and street are crowded. People bond together and spent a good
way to celebrate holiday extravagant.
Furthermore, Christmas is the also a celebration of
abundance of our local cinema. Every December 25, Metro Manila Film Festival
showcases their top and caliber movies. Varies from horror to comedy to drama
etc. Film makers and producers give a brain drain on how they can give a
quality and explosive film for moviegoers.
I have attended the blog conference of Metro Manila Film
Feast entry of OctoArts Films, My Househusband – Ikaw Na! last Saturday in
Guilly’s Bar in Tomas Morato. Bloggers from all side of the metro gathered for
this one grand event. The conference was attended by the cast and lead of the
movie; Roco Naccino, Ellen Adarna, Eugene Domingo, Judy Ann Santos and for his
first title role, Ryan Agoncillo.
This Christmas, I’ll give you 10 reasons why you need to watch ‘My
Househusband, Ikaw Na’:
10. Roco Naccino – Roco is one of the Philippine Hottest Guy
in show business. He was one of the Cosmopolitan’s mouthwatering bachelors of
2011 and he is part of the film portraying a nurse brother of Judy Ann Santos.
9. Ellen Adarna – Tagged as one of the FHM’s Philippine
Sexiest, she portrays a very cute role in the movie.
8. This is not a SEQUEL – For all those who will think that
this is a third installation of Juday-Ryan film – THIS IS NOT. For two
consecutive years, Juday-Ryan was one of the box office movies in the MMFF,
after Kasal, Kasali, Kasalo then comes another hit Sakal, Sakali, Saklolo.
Although same powerhouses are combined, including director – Direk Joey Reyes,
the cast clearly said that this is far different from the first two movies.
This is under OctoArts films and it offers different storylines and characters.
Again – This is not a SEQUEL.
7. How to be a FATHER & MOTHER in a modern world – In
the modern world today, men and women are now equal. Before the typical set up
of a family is that the father will work and provide all the needs and mother
will stay at home to nourish and take care of the children. But today, it is a
mix of everything. Man learns to wash dishes, opens a cook book and sweeps the floor
and does the laundry. Woman finds a decent job, go to work and earn the living
for the family. I know so many families that have this set up. It doesn’t
matter who stays at home and who works, what really matters is how the family
is working out for each other.
6. No Other Woman ang Peg – With the success of movie No
Other Woman, this movie has parodied the blockbuster film. The element of how
the wife deals with his husband and his mistress but in a comic way. Mia,
discovered that his husband Rod is having an affair with their neighbor.
Although she is not threatened of what the other she can do, Mia stood up and
fight for her family.
5. Direk Joey Reyes – I have the most respect for Direk Joey, ever
since I’ve watched his previous works, ‘9 Mornings’, ‘Kung Ako Na Lang Sana’, ‘KKK’
and ‘SSS’ and the epic movie ‘ Ora Plata Mata’. Since the start of his carrier,
he has mastered the market of middle classes. Over the years, Direk Joey is
contributing quality products for his audiences and never fails to wow his patronizes.
4. Eugene Domingo – No words can describe how talented can a
Eugene Domingo is. A thespian, a singer, host, best actress and box office
queen – she has come so far from the small roles she has been with. One lesson she shared is to value the
opportunities that we are showered of and develop the craft that we are gifted
with. No other celebrity can surpass the talent, glamour, beauty and wit of Ms.
Eugene Domingo.
She also shared that she will be doing a musical movie
tribute for APO Hiking Society soon.
3. Judy Ann Santos – Judy Ann Santos is indeed the young
Superstar. Her caliber of acting has never been surpassed. Even her batch mates
never maintain their limelight as Juday did. A great carrier, a loving husband,
a happy family .. what more can she wish for?
2. Ryan Agoncillo – After stepping from hosting to acting,
Ryan Agoncillo proved to the world that he deserve what he is now. After their
back to back blockbuster hits with his loving wife Juday, they are paired up
again for a family oriented movie this Christmas. He plays Rod, a husband who
needs to stay at home and take care of the children. The situation calls him to
do so after kick out of work. Then she find a comfort with his bubbly neighbor Aida
(Eugene Domingo) who soon changed the relationship between him and wife Mia
(Juday).
1. Family Oriented Movie – The movie ‘My Househusband: IKaw
Na’ is centered in a story of modern family today. A middle class family
striving to survive amidst the odds and crisis calls by their nature. Everyone
can appreciate the movie for it reflects the story of your/our family.
