So my friends and I just finished “Six Degrees of Separation from Lilia Cuntapay” at our school. I’m glad the filmmakers thought of doing something as original as this and I am happy that this gives Lilia Cuntapay more credit for what she’s been doing the past years. Lilia was definitely an interesting character to see in the big screen.
I thought the movie was kind of nice—I laughed a few times, felt sad a few, too, and experienced thrill while I watched her life from one frame after another. They just need to polish the editing and trim out all the (what seemed like) unnecessary parts to make it a thousand times better, in my opinion.
But all in all though, this is a film I would not want to watch again and a film that I would not recommend to most of my friends.
Spoiler alert!!!
No one told me that it was merely a movie disguised as a documentary and that 95% of everything that happened inside the one hour and thirty minutes(?) were actually scripted.
I thought they could (and should) have done better after they chose to fabricate a story instead of actually finding a story out of things that actually happened. They didn’t. I was disappointed.
