GMA and Regal Films’ Valentine offering, "The
Promise" has proven to be the ultimate romantic movie event of
this year! On its opening day last February 14, the Richard
Gutierrez-Angel Locsin starrer grossed P10.6 million! As of
Monday, February 19, it grossed P40 million. The producers of
the film are so pleased with the results.
It is raining compliments for young and
talented director, Michael Tuviera for the fantastic job he has
done in "The Promise." Equipped with the best technical team,
Direk Mike has officially produced a mega blockbuster hit
with "The Promise." His mentorship has also given birth to
brighter stars, a more able Richard and Angel on the big screen.
Both Richard and Angel perform splendidly in the film. The
tandem glows on the big screen as if they have never been paired
together before. The Philippines’ most treasured love team
offers something new, exciting, and stirring in this project.
The rest of the cast gave tremendous
performances in the film as well. Newcomer and first time movie
actress, Rhian Ramos delivered wonderfully, playing the role of
Monique. Surely, Rhian will have a long way to go in show
business! And in no time, we will be sure to see her as one of
the most in demand leading ladies of her generation. TJ Trinidad
who plays Anton in the film owns scenes in the movie with the
intensity he radiates in his every appearance. Ryan Eigenmann is
the perfect pick for the role of Jason, Andrea’s (Angel Locsin)
ruthless brother, making his presence felt and almost feared in
this film. Veteran actors Melissa Mendez, Joel Torre, and,
Eugene Domingo give remarkable performances in "The Promise" as
well.
Moviegoers should not let the love month pass
without seeing the most romantic film of this year, "The
Promise".
Due to the success of "The Promise", Regal and GMA are
planning its next co-productions— an Angel Locsin-Robin Padilla
film and a movie with no less than the Megastar, Sharon Cuneta.
