About The Film

Yanki's, Lolita's, and everyone in-between. Meet your all-entertaining cast of the film. It's a little strange hearing about what the story is about, which is kind of the point. Although the story is concerned mostly between the relations of the two protagonists towards each other and their surroundings, it isn't limiting. That is to say, the feelings and situations could be found almost anywhere, but it's much funner to see it with their styles.

Aspiration: Comedic Entertainment

I couldn't have loved this movie much more. Having low expectations, I was very surprised by the quality of entertainment and the pure hillarity of the dialogue. At first, it may be a little strange meeting the main protagonist, but by the end of the story one has grown so fond of her quirky ways that you can't help but feel as her best friend. The same goes for the attitude of the second, whose attitude is overcome by getting to know herself. This is an upbeat and very fun movie to watch. Anyone could enjoy it, and you can't blame it for having a happy-go-lucky theme. It feels good and is good.

Quality: Excellent


Rating [4****]
