Film Review: Rome and Juliet

Ang galing ng pagagawa ng movie, the buildup of the characters, the way the story was told ..ang linis. My friend quoted saying parang hindi local movie.. My opinion naman, ang galing eto na ang bagong local movie. The movie wasnt melodramatic, pero it tried to show love in its true pure form, sexuality aside. Parang sinasagot ang age old question paano mo malalaman kung sya na nga even touching on notions of soulmates. I found the story telling and the pace well done, hindi nakakabagot, parang kikiligin ka as long as you keep an open mind. It helps as well na I found both stars , Mylene Dizon and Andrea Del Rosario, truly hot. And yes for the guys reading ,they have a gratuitous kissing scene yeah baby. There were some so-so performance gaya nung kapatid ni Andrea na addict but passable since it was the story itself that drove the movie. Sorry I forgot, movie review 101, the gist... Well the story is between 2 women , 1 bound to marry ,the other a free spirit hurt by a pass love. Juliet(Andrea) set to be married to her long time boyfriend and hires Rome(Mylene) to be her coordinator. During the time Rome and Juliet spends time together they find things uncanny between them, like knowing what the other would like , or being the perfect complement for the other. They start to grow an attraction with one another until because of a certain incident with Juliet they finally gave in to their emotions. They got scorned by society for their love but in the end their love prevailed. I dont believe the movie is a social commentary on how lesbian love is still taboo in society..although it did touch the subject , I think the movie setout to show love in its purest form and it did so with aplomb.. A must see.
