napakarami pa naman artista ng recommend sa movies
waley pa din… tsk tsk….
OK lng yan! Kahit mahina sa box office, kasama n yan sa mga pelikulang MAIPAGMAMALAKI ng Pilipinas. Saka nabili nmn ng isang US producer ang rights nyan ng USD300,000 so ok na rin yan.
Just wondering, if same movie and storyline but made in hollywood and the actors were foreigners, will it fare better in box office?
ANYARE????? 50 Million pesos pa naman ang nagastos…sana makabawi pa next week…hayyyy life.
haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahaaaaaaaaaaaayyy sayang naman, ang gandah pa naman ng movie dahil siguro sa mga bida. dapat ganito yung papanoorin ng mga pinoy para umusad naman ang philippine movies, hindi pa ba kayu nagsawa sa mga basurang gawang wenn deramas.
anong nangyari sa pinagmamalaking SC.. Puro flop ata?
di naman yan totally produce ng Star Cinema.beeelat!
ON THE JOB = “acclaimed flop”… Star Cinema please release it in US, UK, and UAE to recoup OTJ’s budge…
ang alam ko marami nang kinita yang movie na yan sa intl market, kiber sa local e puro rom-com lang alam ng masang pinoys!
kasi nga indi film kuha mo!
FLOP na FLOP din ang EXTRAsh.
Boycott mga fans ni kim and sarah sa panonood kay budoy! Kaya maganda ang movie… waley sa box office. Siguro nmn maniniwala n iba jan na hindi nagpapadding star cinema.
Maganda sana yung movie if gerald’s character was played by another actor na magaling. He played his role very poorly. Sayang yung movie.
whoa! The first true star cinema flop 🙁 But i have to give credit to those who made the movie. Very well made it’s just that it’s not for everyone. It’s not a usual Pinoy fare. and considering its theme, the rating also affected its performance. Too bad, because of this, we won’t be able to see more movies of that kind.
