Metro Manila Film Fest has started in the Philippines

Metro Manila Film Fest (MMFF), has started on December 25, 2012.

This event will only allow local films to be shown in Metro Manila until the first week of January.  So those wanting to watch Foreign Films for the coming weeks, you are out of luck.

Production Houses in the Philippines at times only make movies to be shown in this event.  Since the winner will receive cash prize, besides making money from cinema sales.  The top contender every year are the movies, with Vic Sotto (a comedian, actor, & variety show host) as the main hero character and Ai-Ai Delas Alas (also a comedian, & actress).  Most movies that do well during this season are the comedy and/or fantasy movies.  It's the time of the year, where some have money to spend for their children and themselves.  A little escapism, where people try to escape from the reality and feel happy for just a while thru movies.

There seem to be a lot of good movies this time around, here are the titles of movies now showing:

  • Si Agimat, Si Enteng Kabisote at Si Ako
  • Sisterakas
  • Sosy Problems
  • The Strangers
  • One More Try
  • El Presidente
  • Thy Womb
  • Shake, Rattle & Roll 14
If I have to watch a movie this MMFF season, then I would probably watch El Presidente or The Strangers.
