A Miracle that also speaks to the Filipino heart

STORY
As it remains true to the storyline of the original Korean version, other details were added to bring out the Filipino flavor. Although I found some parts to be a bit hurried, the final scene actually made me forget about them.

ACTING
• Aga Muhlach played Joselito really well and I admire how he was able to do so without hogging the limelight. His fellow actors were able to shine in the movie as well.
• Xia Vigor's growth from a cutesy rich kid to a mature thinking daughter from a poor family was very evident in this film.
• Among the supporting actors, the one that stood out the most for me was John Arcilla.

MUSIC
Isang Himala by Katrina Velarde and Janine Teñoso's Tag-araw are good songs on their own but they become more meaningful in the context of the movie.

OVERALL
Miracle in Cell No. 7 (PH version) is a wonderful family movie and is recommendable to watch even without being a fan of the original version. If you are looking for a movie that would tear you up for all reasons, then this is a great watch.
