Two Thumbs Up For Dayo!
December 25, 2008In celebration of this day, Christmas 2008, my family and I went to see a movie of the MMFF. We were actually divided on the choice of film. Only 3 of us chose Dayo against the majority, 5 of them, who went for Iskul Bukol. Still, my sisters and I made up our minds and we didn’t regret it.
I have my two thumbs up for Dayo. I highly recommend it especially to children who are still on the value-formation stage of their lives. It teaches a lot of values from giving due respect to the elderly to protecting nature, valuing one’s family, etc. At the same time, it is uniquely Filipino in the sense that much of the concepts in the story are based on Philippine folklore.
It’s a great movie with great animation, sound effects, dubbing and OST. No wonder it got an A rating from the Cinema Evaluation Board.
Below is the movie’s trailer and another video clip shows Lea singing Lipad, the official theme song.
