Without a doubt, one of the best films in RP Cinema and one of the first great films of 2005! "La Visa Loca" garnered an A rating from the Film Ratings Board which would give it a 100% tax-free incentive. The highest rating most films receive is B+ and seldom do films receive A. Some ratings may even be quite questionable but this one was truly deserving! It was funny, touching, irritating, and heart wrenching all at the same time! Aside from that, "kakaiba siya!" Its treament hasn't been done before in Phil. movies. Simple yet aims directly to the core!
I wouldn't go much with the details of the film because one could only appreciate its greatness by seeing it. What I'm quite bothered about is the theme that it tackles. Sobra na bang nakakalimutan na ng Pinoy ang mga mahahalagang bagay sa buhay dahil sa kahirapan (o pera) at kailangan na siyang tapikin upang makaalala? Sadya bang nawawala na ang pagmamahal natin sa ating bayan dahil sa sunod-sunod na pasakit na ating nararanasan?
Yes, I know how hard it is these days to live in the Philippines but it is not enough reason for one to loathe staying here. Go on, work outside the country but one has no right to judge it badly because no matter what you say, pinakinabangan mo rin naman siya!
