It was a drawn out scene that definitely hurt my tummy. My favorite scenes were actually the car chase scene where they sang Hold On together, as well as freefall scene where they talked about the moon. Coco, who is better known as a serious dramatic actor/ action star matched Vice Ganda’s comedic commitment sequence per sequence.

What’s great about the movie is that everyone, when they signed on for the film seemed to be on the same page. Coco, James, Nadine and Vice share a rare moment together in the film in this funny ‘nagkakadevelopan’ scene. Instead, it fully embraces its silliness to catapult the humor to a whole new level. The story is fairly common and pretty shallow but does not pretend to be otherwise. The movie plays like a litany of gags stitched together by consecutive sequences in a fast paced barrage of skits, parodies and jokes that will definitely have the audience grasping their sides from laughter. While the duo work on the case, Abi meets Emman’s brother Tristan (James Reid) and the two develop feelings for each other.įans familiar with Direk Wenn Deramas and Vice Ganda’s comedic style will not be surprised by the film’s approach. But when Emman’s division is assigned a case to find a lookalike that would impersonate the missing daughter of the Prime Minister of a rich Middle East nation for a beauty pageant, he must try to convince his bestie to help him fulfill his mission. He pursues a life as a super secret agent while Eric continues his father’s legacy to become a small time photographer, making ends meet for his sister Abi (Nadine Lustre) and nephews Jimbo (Marco Masa) and Jumbo (Alonzo Muhlach), who were abandoned by their mother Edith to elope with her boyfriend. My strategy paid off, and I was not disappointed by the laughs delivered by this Wenn Deramas flick.Įmman (Coco Martin) and Eric (Vice Ganda) used to be best friends until they parted ways bitterly when Emman finds out that his bestie has secret feelings for him. However, I knew that the combined powers of these four would mean long lines at the cinema on the first day so I waited for Day 3 before finally catching the first screening of the movie. It didn’t hurt that I liked Coco Martin and Vice Ganda as well.
Being a Jadine fan, I’ve been waiting to watch Beauty and the Bestie since my OTP was announced as part of the movie.
