    Jeannie Bakit Ngayon Ka Lang?

    This is outside Robin Padilla's comfort zone of action movies. The storyline itself is predictable.... Jeannie (Judy Ann Santos) - out of the bottle to grant 3 wishes. An overseas Filipino Worker from the Middle East returns to Philippines with everything he had worked for inside his baggage. Gift to family and friends, savings, personal belongings etc. Everything disappeared in a blink of an eye at the airport. The only thing left was a bottle he picked up from Saudi Arabia. To top it all off....... he also lost his girlfriend to a well know basketball player. We can all predict what happens next.... out comes the Jeannie and whallllah 3 wishes !!! Not really worth the 115 mins of waiting for the movie to pick up !!! You may want to use up your 3 wishes some other way.... like changing DVD or going for a walk or better yet...... get a huge bar of chocolate. This movie may not make you cry or laugh..... but it will leave a lasting impression of Tanya Garcia's (the OFW's ex-girlfriend)performance. Her acting is fake, forced and hopefully forgettable.

    Simple but touching!

    Oh goodness, bad quality films that are superb are really rare. Juddy Ann Santos as the main character Jeannie has dona a touching job. The song Bakit Ngayon Lang? is one of my favorite songs and the plot of the story is what I've imagine every time I heard it. Badong(Robin Padilla) has loved Emma(Tanya Garcia) ever since but she has always rejected him. But knowing Jeannie for a longer time makes him develop feelings for her. Although he notices at the very end that he loves her more than anyone else. Robin Padilla who is usually as action star plays the role as a non-confident man, while drama star Juddy Ann Santos plays a genie from a bottle. Very good flirting and acting. It will either make laugh or cry at the end. I recommend this for people who are confused with love and are looking for the right person.
