Pamilya ordinaryo

My Filipina partner tells me that Ordinary People in the Philippines are just nobodies for whom there is little love or care. This incredibly harrowing film illustrates that well. The leading couple were beautifully and very sympathetically played. The film took me to Manila and powerfully reminded me of what I'd felt when I was there. The story is hard and showed the cruel indifference which faces young people here and it was made more difficult to watch because the leading couple found moments of joy and love and fun despite being used.

I cried pretty much throughout. But I'm glad to have seen it.

The ambience, the setting, the acting, and the actors are all excellent. It is worth watching. This is the exact definition of "No acting - acting". Everything is just natural. The story is very natural. This is just a maaterpiece. While watching the film, i felt i was with them the whole time. I was really drawn by the excellent portayal Of the two main characters. So, i invite everyone to find some Time to watch this award winning film from my home country, Philippines. Depicts the life of the people living in the streets and the struggle they are faced jn every day life. Perfect. This is mu second time watching this film.

I was totally interested in this film. It pulled me in and was engaging and engrossing. The ending was a huge disappointment for me.

I am tired of the what comes around... endings. It's a film for a reason..you may play around with ideas. You don't need to 100 percent mirror real life. That being said, the film was very engaging. BUT THE ENDING SUCKED.

Tough to watch yet no hyperbole. Living conditions framing the background to this film allow a fleeting glimpse at poverty in South East Asia's most densely populated metropolitan area where poverty is steadily increasing.

Both lead actors were so convincing I could not believe they were no exceptionally talented street children.
