Falling for the Villain -- MY KONTRABIDA GIRL Movie Review

POTATO ON THE GO REVIEW (Movie):

In a society where Cinderella stories and characters prevail, trying a different route is a real risk to take. But this is the route that GMA Films bravely took through its newest offering MY KONTRABIDA GIRL starring Rhian Ramos and Aljur Abrenica. And from what I witnessed during its press screening, the audience fell in love with the film's "villain".  :)


MY KONTRABIDA GIRL tells the story of a premier kontrabida in Philippine television Isabel Reyes (Rhian Ramos) who traces the root of her "evil persona" from her bad childhood experience caused by his friend Chris Bernal (Aljur Abrenica).  And with Isabel slowly losing the grip of her character, she went on a mission to get back at her enemies and ruin their lives!


MY KONTRABIDA GIRL is somehow not our usual Pinoy romantic comedy movie.  The story is new and refreshing and does not take the usual route of poor Cinderella girl falling in love with her Prince Charming.  Isabel from the very start is a bida-kontrabida (hero-villain) that spread evil on earth and the people around her! :)  But as she delivers her fierce lines and shocking stunts (slaps, throwing of water etc.), everyone can't help but laugh!  The lines are very catchy, funny and easy to remember and Filipino movie goers will definitely get hooked with it.
