A Provedora da Família

It's hard to explain how I felt while watching the movie, though, kudos to the movie casts and crews, and I want to thank those who wrote this masterpiece. For me, it's an eye opener for filipinos, that working abroad, away from your family is not an easy thing to do, especially if your whole family depends on you. As an OFW myself, I could say that some of the scenes where Vice is in Taiwan, is true. Even though I don't experience it myself, some of my co-workers would work day and night just to provide for their family, and it breaks my heart every time. I hope filipinos would realize someday that OFWs are not your ATM machines. Their money is not unlimited, their future is not promised too. Visas could expire and end anytime, and if that happens, who would be their for them?

This movie is a masterpiece and special to me what a great movie Vice and the people who's behind in this production.

My father is battling stage 4 prostate cancer and a spine tumor. It's hard in a way na isa ka sa inaasahan sa pamilya not just physically but financially sometimes you think of giving up pero Hindi pwede kase your here because of them, I cried, laugh and smile a lot watching this masterpiece. Nakaka relate ako sa bawat eksena. This movie gives me hope in every difficult sitatuation.

Despite the pain, this film give me strength especially na ako ang panganay. Thank you meme vice.

The story jumps from a struggling breadwinner to random Vice Ganda costume changes, with no connection whatsoever. Is it a drama? A comedy? A fever dream? Nobody knows. The wigs in this movie have more character development than the actual characters. The acting is OA, there are times in this movie I cringe so hard I was greatful I didn't see this in theaters. The jokes are either recycled from past Vice Ganda films or so outdated they make "It's Showtime" laugh tracks sound fresh.

In general, If you love chaotic, nonsensical, and over-the-top Filipino cinema, this might be "so bad it's good." But if you value coherent storytelling, run far, far away.

I've watched this movie in Netflix randomly and it was such a heartfelt movie. The story is a typical Filipino family reality experience as I felt every scene at the middle part of the movie when the characters unraveled all their struggles individually that affected the outcome for their family's being. Vice Ganda managed to fulfill a moving and interesting character, how everything aligned to how the movie ended was really a chef's kiss. Kudos also on how this movie made me realized that it is really not wrong to help and love your family truly, especially in providing everyone's need and your unconditional love to them. But also, to not forget yourself in the process, to also focus on making sure that you are healing your inner child for your own peace and mental being. It is not wrong to choose yourself when it comes to forgiveness and being grateful in life. This movie provided an impact on how you can build your own life and career while you are also helping other people around you, by choosing yourself and happiness before anyone else.

When I saw the news about it people are going crazy in the cinemas to watch it, I thought it's probably really good. So I watched it with my whole family, it was an okay movie. We got bored and lost interest in the middle of the movie when the actor was making jokes. We were expecting more drama and more delivery of the message that they wanted to show.
