A Movie Full of Jokes that needed a Filipino Context

I can't believe that the humor is still there even though it was released a long time ago. From start to end, it doesn't distant to comedy. When there is a scene that you thought will be a tearjerker, in the middle, the mother will start to say or do something funny so the tears from the eyes will stop.

My favorites are when they re-enact a scene from past movies that are heavy drama in the genre like Anak, Tanging Yaman, and Bata, Bata... Pa'no Ka Ginawa?. What funny is that the original actors who say the famous line is also in this movie so it added to the humor. I like that each of her children is very unique. A responsible son, artistic daughter, a smart son, a girlish daughter, a smart daughter, a gay son, a religious son, a boyish daughter, a son with a disability, etc.

The main song used in this movie is also funny. I definitely rewatch it. Since most jokes in this movie needed context, it isn't recommended for people who are starting only to watch Filipino movies.
