You Are The One Movie Review

ABOUT THE MOVIE
Sally Malasmas is happy staying in the Philippines but is forced to apply for a visa to go to the States where her sick mother is. When she goes to the US Embassy, she meets the dashing consular Will Derby who doesn’t see enough of a reason for her to stay in the Philippines and takes her for another future TNT. Denied a visa, Sally is miffed but she gets her revenge when it’s Will’s turn to apply for his original birth certificate at the NSO where she works. He needs to find his biological Filipino parents, a promise he made to his adoptive American parents. But her plan to make it hard for him backfires when her boss sees what she’s doing. Now, she has no choice but to help him search high and low for his parents and there the attraction between the two grows. As he nears the end of his post in Manila, will he get a new reason to stay?

MY MOVIE REVIEW
If you like romantic comedies, I recommend you go see this one. This is one of ABS-CBN Star Cinema’s good movies for the year 2006.

The movie shows some truths about us Filipinos living in poor urban areas, Filipinos working for the government and Filipinos who grew up in the U.S. It also shows that even if we grew up from different cultures, one thing is common, Filipinos have strong family ties. Will Vernard, even though his parents gave him up when he was young, is trying to meet them and the rest of the family. He feels there is emptyness inside not knowing where he came from. Sally’s sister loved her even when Sally hated her for being the better sister. One can never be complete not knowing your past and not accepting the people who loves you.

You will see here everything you would expect in a typical romantic pinoy movie. It’s really fun to watch and I’d say it’s one of Star Cinema’s good movies this year.
