Fan Girl

I was dubious at the first two acts. I was constantly wondering about all the fuss on the leads' acting when all I could get is excessive cursing, beers, and cigarettes, and even drug use. I mean nothing spectacular is happening, just the fan girl's yearning and delusions. But then the third act came, and it's like all the message it has were unpacked all of a sudden. When her eyes got opened on the situation she found herself in, so were the viewers. You could clearly feel her emotions. Charlie Dizon's acting is superb! She better win best actress for this! In the end, this is a film about one's realization of self-worth, of transformation and empowerment. You'd feel weirded out about some scenes, it even went to some extent that you'd feel uncomfortable watching it, but this is the kind of film we need. It's daring yet beautiful.
