I was intrigued to watched Seven Sundays so I invited my mom, my sister and my hubby. It was a story about a family, whose father was diagnosed with lung cancer. They decided to spend the remaining seven Sundays together with their father. They promise to dedicate every Sundays with their family.
The Verdict:
Spoiler alert!!!!
The story started with their tatay’s (Ronaldo Valdez) birthday while all of his children (Aga Muhlach, Dingdong Dantes, Cristine Reyes and Enrique Gil) were busy with their own lives. They can’t be there with their father's birthday celebration. Then, on the end of the day, his doctor visited him with the bad news. He has more or less 2 months to live. That’s how the story revolved. I will not go on with every details.
My two cents, it was a really tear jerker movie. I have soft spot in my heart whenever a movie is about death or family. Everyone can relate especially to the people who lost a parent, with siblings or to the kids of OFWs. Grabe! Iyak ako besh (maybe it was because of my hormones din :D ) Cathy Garcia-Molino did a great job as always. There was a part in the movie na sunod sunod yung nakakaiyak. Haha For me, every one of them were good. But the one who stand out for me will be Ronaldo Valdez and Dingdong Dantes. If they were the one who will release those emoterong lines. Ay! Sure na besh, pak ang luha. :))
Some of the things I noticed are: They have a bitin na ending. Some of the problems they encountered where unsolved or they haven’t show some resolution towards the end. For example, Baby D’s (Enrique Gil) problem. He will be sued by Dingdong’s Boss. So what will happen to them? Next will be, will they continue to meet up every Sunday? What else? Hmmm.. Will KSP will continue to open? Lastly, I hope they added a scene where their father or Aga Muhlach tried to explain how he knew about his dad’s secret. It is just a few thoughts.
The story has some very important message to everyone. The movie will help us realize to always have a communication with your family or to visit them especially your parents even they have done something wrong to you in the present or in the past. They will always be your parents and family. Be open to your family with your problems, they will always have your backs. They will be the first person to help you. Finally, it is not too late to change things, to forgive and to bond with your family.
