Cast: Nellie Seta, Joseph Paul, Angeleen Sapsi
After Maria (Nellie Seta) takes petty revenge on Daniel (Joseph Paul) by overcharging a coconut, the duo end up meeting once more at Maria's workplace. Maria demonstrates professionalism despite their initial unpleasant meeting, leading Daniel to seek out her assistance in relation to his job. The two begin to bond but this catches the attention of Jessica (Angeleen Sapsi), – one of Daniel’s colleagues.
Jessica, the main antagonist’s introduction is underwhelming. But depending on how her storyline unfolds and how she plays her character, she could either become the most favorite or the most hated. Embracing the passive-aggressiveness of female bullying and manipulation could be the character’s greatest strength.
Daniel’s assistant in this episode, had more personality than the main character, and easily steals the show.
Certain scenes need better camera work. The market scene, where Daniel and Maria sit side-by-side shows too much headroom, making the characters seem isolated and the shot amateurish. Too much handheld camerawork. A steady POV shot, close ups and over-the-shoulder shots would enhance the film.
On the other hand, the actors’ authenticity in the final scenes, (i.e. Daniel almost falling off a chair) added to the film’s charm. Whether that fall was scripted or not leaving a very realistic in the final cut adds enriches a film instead of diminishing its appeal.
Final Verdict:
Needs better camerawork. Characters have the potential to either repel or captivate their audience. Supporting character stole the show.
★★★☆☆ (3/5)
Main character’s need to step up their performance
