great (Dr. Isagani Cruz)

the acting was simply amazing! a good adaptation of the book. the casting was also wonderful. the family was how i imagined it to be. it was good that Vilma portrayed Amanda because she has been one of the great actresses in our country. but i feel that Christopher De Leon didn't fit his role that much. Danilo also looked older than the one in the book. I also felt that Piolo's wife should have been more beautiful. But I was amazed by the condition of the cars that they used. the house was also in good form. It was also good that they didn't include morbid parts from the book. Over all the film was good. i could watch that film over and over again.
