in between writing for pinoyexpats and editing a review article on the effect of tocotrienols on oxidative stress and brain apoptosis, i’ve found time to see back-to-back piolo starrers: milan and ’til there was you. to quote AnP, “bakya na kung bakya!”

i loved milan. it was a story i know a lot of pinoys here in europe can relate to, including me. pero, oy, i had valid papers, ha? i like the way it seemed like a documentary and a travelogue in one. i like the way it showcased the popular sights in italy, the way it provided a glimpse of europe. it was a good film, highly recommended to those who’d like a whiff of what’s it’s like over here.

’til there was you is another run-of-the-mill flick. nothing special but a nice feel-good one. judy ann has gone a long way from the soppy soaps, eh? this movie also seemed determined to showcase papa piolo’s torso to the hilt! reminds me of those statues on medieval/baroque (?) castles. now i can understand why even level-headed AnP is going ga-ga over this guy. this guy’s packed with a lot of ooomph!
