Silly Red Shoes

Let me start with the teaser. I love how catchy it is, it highlights the parts to look out for but does not give too much spoilers. The viewers are curious as to the mystery behind 'Ashley's alien feet', so it actually sparks everyones curiosity and imagination. Also, the song used is very pleasing to the ears (Kyle Echarri's Pangako- lets support OPM)

Now the storyline and characters, I admit it is a bit 'bitin' because i wanted more from Kyle and francine and the entire cast. You will love all the characters and feel sympathies for their individual struggles. You will also love Kyle and Francine's oozing and undeniable chemistry that you will feel kilig. (even my grandma cant stop gushing about these teens)

I love how the touch of fantasy-myth was added into the story. Also, it showcased the beauty of the locality where it was filmed and shoemaking industry here in the PH. The kilig scenes were not pilit and the comedic banats of the characters were spot on.

as for the main leads, Francine Diaz and Kyle Echarri. Wow!!! just Wow!! I already expected that Francine or popularly known as Cassie Mondragon, will pull this off and will blown us away with her acting prowess. What I didnt expect was kyle echarri's transformation. From Starmagic's resident Amboy to a son of a local shoemaker who drives a tricycle to deliver their products. he really pulled off, as according to him, his 'batang kalye' look. I didnt see in him the rich kid Kristoff Tejada in Kadenang ginto and he has really portrayed his role very well.

This is the perfect movie to watch with your family. It will teach you the importance of family and to be a more filial to your parents.

These two amazing Young Loveteam (KyCine) has so much potential to offer. Looking forward to watch them again together in another project..

Silly Red Shoes is the second movie of a new budding Director James Mayo after Ogie Alcasid's Kuya Wes. Director Mayo succeeded in giving his audiences the right mood in these two films. Silly Red Shoes anchors its story on a fairytale, mirroring the reality on the life of its lead star Ashley (Francine Diaz) and her old time classmate, Chuck (Kyle Echarri). It is also iwant's anniversary offering featuring the love teams of ABS CBN's " The Gold Squad"

The cinematography was breathtaking, it was useful to make you feel the culture and the vibes of the setting, and its fantasy mood! , however, for this movie it could have been adjusted for a more youthful feel, since teen stars were the lead and the majority of the target audience.

The story was very simple and direct to the point! Family stories like what has been depicted was not new but it was the performance of Mayor Herbert Bautista who made it beautiful. It was too palpable that Chuck and Ashley's love story took a back seat. It could have been more developed for the two teen actors a chance to promote their loveteam, as there were segments that are drudging and could have been used to move Chuck and Ashley's story forward.

Despite of it lacking climactic scenes, Silly Red Shoes is the right film for you if you want to step into the right amount of family stories and fantasy!

Chin is really a good actress, I hope she get a lot of project. I love chin!

I rated this by comparison to other local teen romcoms. This movie didn't try too hard. It has fantasy/myth, but doesn't rub it in your face that gets annoying sometimes.

Like other romcoms, it has "kilig" scenes and a happy montage, but it didn't feel forced and unrealistic. Somehow, the whole thing actually fits the actors' age, also the target audiences'. It was grounded and very subtle.

Overall, Silly Red Shoes is a gem of a mainstream Filipino film.
