"Mano Po 3: My Love" is far better off than the previous Mano Po movies. If the other to MP movies talked about family and home, this 3rd franchise talks about the most universal language of all: Love.

This is about Lilia Chiong-Yang (Vilma Santos) a Chinese-Filipino woman. She was torn from her first and only love, and ended up marrying the person she didn't want (Jay Manalo). One faithful day, she met up with her old love Michael (Christopher De Leon) and things began to get rocky then. He wanted her to choose between her family and the only man she truly loved.

The good thing about this movie is she made a decision in the end.

For me, this third and last installment was the best among the rest. The movie made me laugh, cry, angry, sad and everything else. That's really rare the Philippines' movie industry now. Vilma Santos did a wondrous job in portraying her role. After her 2-year absence in the movie industry, she still had the touch. The only thing i didn't like about the movie was Jay Manalo. He really was too young to be Vilma's husband in the movie. They were supposed to be the same age though, but remarkably he did a very good job playing his role as well. How can we not forget Boyet? He was marvelous! Without him, this movie wouldn't be the best one yet.

People say this is such an ordinary love story, but in my eyes, this is the best Filipino movie ever made in my time. Teenagers like me and adults could easily understand the plot.

I'm not surprised why when i tried to watch the movie, it was sold out. It's THAT good.
