A Fairytale-like Story
I can't believe that I enjoyed this movie so much. It is a light romantic comedy movie that I just needed. It feels that I watched a fairytale about a princess. But in this movie, it is just a normal teenager that wants to join a beauty contest. It is an adaptation of the famous Cinderella story but everything is in the Philippine context.I like how they integrate the famous fairy-tale of Liliw, the setting of the story, to the whole movie which added to its fairytale feels. On the leads, I like the chemistry of Francine Diaz and Kyle Echarri which in the first place why I watched this movie.
I will definitely rewatch this movie.
The movie tell 2 story. (1) Chuck & Ashley story, where they join the competition. (2) story about Ashley's family & the mysterious red shoes. Unfortunately for us, they only finished 1 story, which about Ashley's family. While the Chuck, Ashley & competition story remain unfinished. More over about chuck's family business, it's like forgotten story, which they don't even bothered again in the end.
Quite happy about Ashley's family. But at the same time every thing happen too fast & unclear. Like the competition itself, we don't know how long the preparation time, rehearsal & the competition day itself, kinda don't make sense how long they give space between rehearsal & competition day, usually only 1 day before the D-day is rehearsal day., but no here. And also the problem between Celine & their dad. Earlier we can see how mad Celine to their dad, but overnight she seems forget about it & just casually talk to their dad. Yeah yeah I know, all for the sake of Ashley can get her happy ending. But it doesn't make sense how fast every thing happen in the end.
This could be one good movie, if only they complete all the story & have more logic timeline.
