I watched the most-awaited film “My Big Love” yesterday at SM MegaMall Cinema 10. This movie is starred by promising young movie stars in the industry namely Toni Gonzaga, Sam Milby and Kristine Hermosa. Co-stars in the film are Sandy Andolong, Ricardo Cepeda, Malou de Guzman, Janus del Prado, Jaymee Joaquin, Michelle Madrigal, Lito Pimentel, Aldred Gatchalian and many more. I have seen its trailer on TV several times and people who have already watched it blurted words of praise on how wonderful and romantic the movie is. I somehow got intrigued to that but even before I heard comments from people who have already seen the movie, I already planned to watch it by the time I knew that it is going to be shown as a post-Valentine film.
The story is about a pastry chef named Macky (Sam Milby) who has struggled with his weight for a long time. His dream girl is Ninia (Kristine Hermosa) who is also his chat mate. He constantly gives her pastries and flowers without revealing himself. Until such time that they decided to meet but unfortunately, it was a total disaster. As a result, he hired Aira (Toni Gonzaga) as his personal trainer and as they worked together to achieve Macky’s ideal weight, they both learned to like and appreciate each other. It was not long when an offer from Japan came Aira’s way and she decided to accept it, being the breadwinner of the family. Two years passed and the Macky that everyone used to laugh at has now become one of the sought-after bachelors in the city and who is soon-to-be engaged to his girlfriend Ninia. It was also at this time that Aira’s and Macky’s paths crossed again. The confusion and turmoil led into heartaches for the three people involved in the love triangle. It is now up to Macky who he will choose as his big love: Ninia, the girl he had always dreamed of or Aira, the girl who has always accepted him for who and what he is?
What I can say about the movie is that it is really romantic and wonderful just like what people said. For me, it depicted that destiny really leads people who truly love each other back to each other’s arms no matter how long they have been apart. What I liked most in the movie was the time when Macky and Aira met again after two years of not seeing each other. When Aira laid eyes on Macky across the street and recognized that it was his old friend Macky, she was too dumbfounded and couldn’t believe that he had trimmed down and became a really gorgeous man! Macky then went to meet Aira and the latter came running towards Macky and then threw her arms around him. They then hugged each other tight. It was so “nakakakilig” especially when the song “If ever you’re in my arms again“ was playing on the background! I have seen all three movies of Sam Milby and Toni Gonzaga and I could say that this film is what I like most.
So guys and gals who have not seen this movie yet, go to your nearest cinema now and watch this beautiful romantic film!
