WITH classes opening recently (others still have to open though), Regal Entertainment bosses thought it proper to release its latest treat that teenage students can easily relate to.
According to the promo material, the movie “Walwal” focuses on a struggling student-athlete with daddy issues, a playboy who changes his ways after falling for a girl, the hopeless romantic, and the nice guy who experiences love for the first time.
The movie stars Elmo Magalona, Kiko Estrada, Donny Pangilinan, Jerome Ponce and Kisses Delavin, among others. It is directed by Jose Javier Reyes, who reportedly said that “Walwal” is the updated version of his earlier project, “Pare Ko.”

It’s nice to note that Martin Nievera is given the chance once again to showcase his gift of gab through a new project.
Martin was acknowledged before as one of the country’s best talk show hosts. He used to be pit against another actor with the gift of gab, Edu Manzano.
Hopefully, Martin’s new project will rate high to make late nights more enjoyable.

While it took 40 years of waiting for Odette, popular rapper Abra got a best actor award in his first acting project for the movie “Respeto” in the Gaward Urian. Abra found it hard to believe that he had bested other worthy opponents.
