With all the opinions regarding this year's breakout movie Ploning flying around cyberspace, I'm sure you have wondered what this movie is about, and up and watched it. If you haven't, then it's time to go watch it. Meanwhile, if you are not wholly convinced, maybe this movie clip will convince you. If it won't, then maybe these people's written reactions will! ""Ploning" is a living proof that there's still hope for the dying if not dead film industry in the country." - Michael Kho Lim, Daily Tribune"There are many things to like about Dante Nico Garcia's first feature film, "Ploning": Its loving tribute to small-town life, folk tradition and timeless tenets; its textured characters, each with an affecting story to tell; its private locales; its actors' deeply-felt performances; and its shared insights about the different forms of love that bind people to each other..." - Nestor Torre, Philippine Daily Inquirer""Ploning" tugs at your heartstrings" - Cheekie Albay, Yehey.Com"...What the character significantly manages to hold on to inside Ploning is one scarred mystery intelligibly shaping two gripping storylines crossing boundaries, a fascinating treatment typical of Pedro Almodovar or Atom Egoyan's edgy dramas." - Edsel Lorete, Daily Tribune""Ploning" does a great job of showing off Cuyo, Palawan. Shots of beautiful sunsets and rough beaches will entice audiences to head to the island and experience the quiet rural life themselves. The colors on "Ploning" are also vibrant; they pop off the screen and make you lean forward." - Sam Marcelo, Business World"I say go watch what might be one of Philippine cinema's best creations to date. I will not go into detail what "Ploning" is about. No one can ever capture the purity of its beauty into words. Only the viewer's heart is able to do that." -Marian Joy Hernandez, ClicktheCity.Com"The movie shifts back and forth from the 1980s to the present several times but through excellent storytelling, you won't get lost by the details tying them all together..." - Jocelyn Dimaculangan, Pep.Ph"Kapuri-puri ang ensemble cast ng "Ploning" na pinangungunahan ng bidang si Judy Ann Santos, na nagsisilbing puso at kaluluwa ng pelikula." - Allan Diones, Abante Tonite"No matter the box-office results (masterpieces rarely make money), "Ploning" is already a winner in terms of artistry and technical quality of the cast and the cinematography of Charlie Peralta and the story and script penned by direk Nico in collaboration with Benjamin Lingan." Ronald Constantino, Tempo""Sabel" may have been the turning point of Judy Ann's acting career. But here in "Ploning," she finally reaches maturity as an actress. As moviegoers, we should also mature with her and appreciate this simple, yet masterfully done work of art on film." - Butch Francisco, Philippine Star"Must-see movie ito na hindi pwedeng palampasin." - Rowena Agilada, Tempo"...wala kaming gaanong expectation sa pelikula pero nang magsimula itong ipalabas ay tinutukan namin hanggang sa matapos." - Aster Amoyo, Pilipino Star Ngayon"RATED A film." - Cinema Evaluation Board"...Moving, dazzling, and yet intimate and comforting, "Ploning" is a worthy tribute to small-town life and mores, to women of heart and bravery, and to filmmakers of courage and integrity. Judy Ann is lucky to have found a friend in "Ga," for no one could have gotten a better birthday gift." - Rina Jimenez-David, Philippine Daily Inquirer""Ploning" is a masterpiece... Lead actress Judy Ann Santos has no leading man and no melodramatic scene but she manages to come with a sympathetic three-dimensional character never before seen in a Pinoy-made movie..." -Edgar Cruz, Yehey.Com""Ploning" ni Judy Ann, may kakaibang kurot sa puso." - Rohn Romulo, People's Balita"Nag-umpisa at natapos ang "Ploning" na hindi pumikit ang aming mga mata dahil sa magagandang eksena." - Jojo Gabinete, Abante"Para sa amin si Direk Dante Nico Garcia ang young Lino Brocka at Ismael Bernal." - Peter Ledesma, UNTV"...simple pero malalim ang istorya." - Regee Bonoan, Balita"...de-kalidad at napakaganda ng sinematograpiya ng pelikula. Na-capture ni Charlie Peralta ang ganda ng islang Cuyo sa Palawan...Tunay ngang matatandaan at magmamarka sa lahat ang karakter ni Juday bilang Ploning. At tama ang kanyang desisyon na gawin ang nasabing pelikula." - Erlinda Rapadas, Bulgar
