Review of No Other Woman (2011) by Ian P — 09 Feb 2015

I initially thought that this movie would be just like another-romantic-Pinoy-movie out there but it wasn't when I watched it! It was carefully thought-out movie especially the story and the plot of the film.

It was non-traditional, creatively fresh and something new for movie-watchers that it started the trend of other woman and mistress themed movies. The three lead actors - Anne Curtis, Derek Ramsey and Cristine Reyes did a superb acting job to justify their roles and effectively deliver the drama and emotion that the watchers would like to see and feel in the movie.

The quotable lines may seemed cheesy to others or funny but some lines has a deeper meaning that one should look into. The memorable quoted lines of the movie only adds color to it but it made No Other Woman trending and a memorable movie.

Who wouldn't forget Kara Zalderiaga's memorable one-liners like "Shut up and kiss me. And don't you dare fall in love with me." Or Babygirl Dela Costa's Lucy Torres and Quiapo line? Very memorable.

In the end of No Other Woman, there were many lessons to learn about relationships, commitment and faithfulness. It gave importance to the concept of marriage as well as true love. Yet it also showed how far one would go in the midst temptation, lies and infidelity and its consequences to one's life.

I also like that it gave emphasis on forgiveness despite of betrayal and pain which others find it a weak ending. Actually, No Other Woman gave a lot of morals about love, marriage and faithfulness that's why no wonder it went out as box-office highest grossing film of 2011.
