Reviews/Notes:
“I cried in some scenes. May puso ‘yong film kahit na may disconnect doon sa part na nagi-inject ng light moment. Gets naman ang point ng comparison ng dalawang klase ng addiction (and to some extent, hindi s’ya preachy). Hindi lang talaga s’ya naalog at napagsama nang suwabe.” (Read more)
– Manuel Pangaruy, Tagailog Special (3/5)“Tonally weird first half that’s too comedic for its own good (I wish Cindy Miranda toned it down a bit here), but then settles into something that’s honestly not too bad for me. Loved Noel Teehankee’s work here, and not (just) during the psychedelic scenes either – the best camerawork here was during small moments where the camera would jerk from one place to another or change perspective.”
– John Tawasil, Present Confusion (2.5/5)“This film has a lot of good and interesting technical decisions including choice of colors and framing. Especially at instances when the characters enter their trance-like state. But it gets kind of woozy with regards to the intertwining of the personal narratives by the 2 main leads.” (Read more)
– Jay-R Trinidad (2/5)“Awkward mix of comedy, romance and its serious subject matter. Sadly a waste of its two lead stars’ talents.” (Read more)
– Jayson Laniba, Film Circle Reject (1/5)“So bad. Has no redeeming quality whatsoever.”
– Nico Quejano (1/5)
