You may read the movie synopsis on this link Wikipedia.

Here are some movie linyahang na tumatak at naiwan sa akin..

Hindi ko alam kung anong mas mahirap. 

Yung pag aralang mahalin ung taong nagmamahal sayo,

 o ang umasang mamahalin ka din ng taong mahal mo.

Mr. Perfect may not be necessarily Mr. Right.

Love? Love is like saying 'goodbye' to your fondest dreams,

and saying 'hello' to your worst nightmare

Which is more painful? 

Saying something you wish you had not? 

Or saying nothing you wish you had?

You never say sorry for loving someone. 

You never say sorry for loving me.

I didn't even believe in forever, 

but I think I found forever in you..

"I didn't even believe in forever Toni... 

but I think I found forever in you."

Nung napanuod ko ito, parang biglang gusto kong pumunta ng Bicol at masilayan ang Mayon, ganda kase ng kapaligiran dun. Na parang ang sarap kumain ng laing mismo sa Bicol kesa dito sa loob ng bahay namin ha ha ha!

Ang galing ng acting nina Claudine Baretto, Aga Mulach sa movie na ito. Isama mo na din yung ibang cast na super sa support na ipinakita ng bawat character.   

Yung lahat nang mga linyahan talaga tumatak...

Yung walang masyadong cheesy lines kundi mga palitan nang linyahan na may buhay, natural at puso...

Mamay: Ang ganda ni Crissy anu?

Alam mo sa lahat ng mga anak ko, 

Sya ang pinag mamalaki namin.

Mamay: Naku Carl, pag-pasensiyahan mo na pag-kain namin. Yan lang yung nakayanan namin...

Carl: This is too much!

Sony: Sus, pag si Mama ang nag-handa talagang wala pa yan...

(Tapos yung pag-kain sa mesa ay pang-fiesta)

Basta Mang Fidel gusto ko maganda yung gagawin mo huh, yung magarbong magarbo.

Kase iimbitahin ko sina Gobernor, Mayor at Congressman.

Kaya, kaya ayokong mapapahiya. Ito ang pinaka malaking kasalang magaganap sa bayang ito. Kaya galingan mo huh.-Mamay

Opo - Mang Fidel

Kaya ganyan ang buhay mo,

Lahat idinadaan mo sa biro,

Lumalabas tuloy ang kabobohan mo.

Kahit kailan, perwisyo...- Papay

Carl: Matagal na ho ba sya sa inyo?

Sony: Sinu? 

Carl: Sya-(sabay turi kay Lena)

Sony: Anu ka ba eh, kapatid namin yan!

Sony: Di ba nasabi ni Manay Dhang sa iyo?

Giselle: Naku si Manay Lena napag-kamalang Katulong...

Carl: Anu ba ang pinakain nyo sa akin?- Carl

Lena: Ikaw ang kumain, ginataang apoy,Hipon, niluto sa gata, alamang at sili...maraming maraming sili...

inumin mo...-Lena to Carl sabay bigay ng gatas ng kalabaw

Mamay: Pero tiyak na kailagan mo ang tulong ni Lena, 

dun sa ihahanda mo sa kasal. Two hundred ang kumbidado ko Carl.

Carl: Two hundred? sabi sa akin ni Crissy 60?

Mamay: Hindi Baba, two hundred pero para makasiguro tayo gawin nating 250, okay?

Carl: Sure 250, no problem- Carl

Carl: Eto yung Mayon di ba? Well, still nothing compared to the grand canyon.

Carl: May, asan ang kay Lena?

Mamay: Ah, e Carl si Lena sya ang bahala sa kusina.

Kailangan may mag-aasikaso sa pag-kaing ihahanda mo.

Ay, Carl alangan namang ipag kakatiwala mo yon sa ibang tao di ba?

Di ba Lena?

Lena: At saka hindi nyo naman ako mapag-susuot ng ganyan eh-Lena

Carl: Bakit hinde maganda ka naman...

Oo, nga...

Mamay: Puede ba Carl wag mo nang pilitin, ako mismo sumuko na sa tigas ng ulo nya

Lena: Di mo dapat sinabi yun

Carl: Ang alin, na maganda ka?

Lena: Nakakahiya

Carl: ha ha, Isn't that's so Filipino?

Carl: Bakit ka mahihiya sa totoo?

Carl: Besides, I really find it weird you know,

you're next to Crissy, right? Di ba nga dapat ikaw ang maid of honor nya?

Lena: Walang mag aasikaso sa kusina.

Carl: The point is Lena, kapamilya ka nila hindi katulong.

Giselle: Wow Manay! ang Ganda mo! Ang ganda ni Lena, Pay noh?

Papay: San ba lakad mo sa kabaret?

Cynthia: Uy, ang guapo ng fiance' ni Manay Dhang ah. Kung sabagay guapo din naman yung sa iyo. Sayang kasi pinakawalan mo pa eh.

Lena: Cynthia anu ba? baka may makarinig sa iyo.

Cynthia: Jusko naka huh, hanggang ngayon ba naman ba issue pa yun?

Papay: Ang tatapang nang mga apog wala namang mga bayag. Mga komunistang walang pinaglalaban kundi pagiging patay gutom nila.

Fr Ruben: Papay, hindi naman lahat may mga natititra pa ding may mga prinsipyo

Papay: Wag mong gamitin sa akin yang pagiging pari mo huh. Baka nakakalimutan mo, walang Diyos ang mga iyon.

Carl: Tutuo yun

Sony: Galit ka din ba sa mga NPA, Bayaw?

Carl: they're no beter than mercenaries, mga tulisan, sa tagal na nila sa bundok hindi na nila alam kung anu pinag lalaban nila. Kung meron nga silang pinaglalaban. Dapat nga sa kanila bumaba dito at tumulong na lang sa poblema ng Pilipinas. But they done nothing but put us on a blacklist worldwide.

Carl: kailangan natin dito ng higanteng kawa at hinganteng braso na mag hahalo ng paella

Lena: Oo, kung hindi mahilaw matulad sa iyo.

Carl: Lena may poblema ba tayo

Lena: ang Pilipinas gaya nang sabi mo marami, ako wala. Ang sinasabi ko lang hilaw ka. Alanganing Pilipino, alanganing Amerikano. 

Carl: Teka, teka, sandali sandali. Me galit ka ba sa akin? Me kasalanan ba ako sa iyo?

Lena: Ikaw, anu bang kasalanan sa iyo ng mga tulisang sinasabi mo?

Carl: oh, that's it. Lena that's just my opinion. Opinion lan yun walang personalan.

Lena: Pwes, mali ang opinyon mo at tama pinepersonal ko. Ang alam ko kase sa mga namumundok na yan nasa bundok pa din sila ng Pilipinas.

Carl: ah, at ako wala? ako ang traidor

Lena: ikaw ang nag sabi nyan

Carl: pero yun din ang gusto mong sabihin kanina pa di ba?

Lena: hindi! gusto ko lang malaman mo na wala kang karapatang humusga sa kapwa mo Pilipino. Lalo na sa mga Pilipinong naiwan.

Carl: wala ka ring karapatang husgahan ako o ang mga Pilipinong nagsisialisan para lang mag hanap nang mas magandang buhay.

Lena: kung lahat ng Pilipino kagaya mo, wala nang maiiwan dito sa Pilipinas.

Lena: bakit pa kayo bumaba? alam nyo naman na maramig militar, maraming check point

Abel: kailangang kailangan na eh.

Carl: Lena?

Lena: Abel, kailangang madala ka sa ospital 

Abel: hindi na, daplis lang yun eh kailangan ko lang magpahinga. Bukas aalis dina naman ako. Lena, pasensiya na huh.
