The good: tell me if there's any
The bad: that people are fooled to watch this crap
What justifies a 1 rating for a film? Bad Acting? Bad cinematography? Bad storyline? Boring fight sequences? Well, movies sometimes deserve even a 2 with all those negatives combined. What makes a film deserve a piss-poor 1 is when it is utterly unwatchable, put-you-to-sleep-boring, and "I wanna get out only after 30 mins" crap, that's what.

It is really of no surprise that a Filipino film turns out to be bad. But even Let the Love Begin wasn't this bad. I can forgive the bad acting, I can forgive the hodgepodge of TV stars and personalities, I can forgive the false assumptions and the cultural mistakes (Koreans getting eeky on intenstinal foods? Come on they eat live scorpions for crying out loud!), I can forgive Hero Angeles sporting a long hair-do even though he's a nursing student, I can even forgive the again blatant advertising (paload nga 25, my number is ....), but what I can't forgive is the penchant of Filipino networks in releasing one bad romcom after one bad romcom. And they say the Filipino movie industry is dying because of piracy, yeah right!

Filipino movies are crap, pure and simple, and this film is a testament to that. Sad that other Fil films like Jose Rizal and Crying Ladies have to share the same "Filipino Film" title as this one. (1/5)

*Fun Fact: there is no fun to be had in this film.
