Mila (2001) Reviews

• Nice start, startling ending

  When I first saw the movie, especially the part where Mila was crazy in love with Primo, I thought I was watching the predecessor to the movie Prime. I wanted to whack Mila because she fell for Primo's help-me antics. However, as the movie progressed, I found myself empathizing with the characters and in the process I forgot to review for my test! Anyhow, the story lines are very defined and the whole middle part kept my eyes on the screen. However, the ending was kind of undeserved and overrated. The scene where Mila died would have been fine and would probably keep the viewers implying the ending, rather than being served. Yes, the ending was so overrated and I felt it was unnecessary.

• Very Disappointing...

  when i was still living in the philippines, i saw this movie. in fact it was the last movie i saw before moving permanently to Cali. the trailers for this movie claimed to accurately tell of a life of a public school teacher. see, in the philippines public school teachers don't get paid enough, and so i guess u could say that their life is pretty tight. so i went and saw the movie. it was very disappointing in the way that the trailers and the actors (when interviewed) pretty much lied to the people. the story was of a whole individual who had an extraordinary life. being a public school teacher wasn't all who she is, but the execs of the company played it like her being a teacher had everything to do with her whole life and even with her death. its not true! her life was pretty fascinating, i guess, so i give the drama 3/5 stars, but i was really really disappointed in the lying and the deceit they had to do just to have people see the movie. disgusting.
