Soap Opera Movie

Rating: 6/10 (8 December 2005)

I was invited to see the movie recently, with good comments. As soon as I start seeing the two seniors, I already knew the plot and end of it. The production design is well done, specially selecting locations. Photography and art direction is also superb. But the movie is predictable and not a real tearjerker in my opinion. I have noticed the movie has moved American audience and it is because it has same plot seeing on soap opera shows. Before the end, the predictable plot suggested by all means that somebody should die, in we got the two main character dying together (the best way to bring tears to the audience). I enjoyed the movie but I think it was overrated.
