“Yes, I feel pressure. But, you know, I wouldn’t be put in this place by God if it wouldn’t succeed. So, I’m pretty sure that God put us here so that we can go all the way," says Ogie Alcasid on playing the title role of his movie.

“Na-pick-up na ‘ko…ng bading.

“Totoo!” natatawang simula ni Ogie sa kuwento ng pick-up attempt sa kanya.

“Sa eroplano pa nga, e.”

Isang bote lang daw ng pabango ang pinang-pick-up sa kanya ng bading.

“Pero hindi ako sumama,” paglilinaw agad ng singer-songwriter/comedian.

FEELING THE PRESSURE. Aminado rin si Ogie na nakakaramdam siya ng pressure sa pagkakaroon ng pelikulang siya mismo ang nasa title role at siya ang nangunguna’t malaking artista.

“Yeah… 25 years na ‘ko sa showbiz and it’s only now that I’ve been given a real title role.

“So, I think it was worth the wait—25 years of experience of doing comedy.

“But I think it came at the right time. Kaya’t natutuwa ako dahil ang daming goodwill na dumating sa project.

“Itong mga artistang ito, na kasama ko ngayon, talagang 180 thousand percent yung binigay nila sa comedy.

“And of course, I have to say thank you to my director here who… pare, ang galing mo.

"Palakpakan natin si Direk Dom,” pasasalamat pa ni Ogie sa kanyang co-stars na naroon na sina Solenn Heussaff, Sam Pinto, Dennis Trillo, Eri Neeman, Diego Llorico, Rodfil Obeso, at ang direktor ng pelikula niya na si Dominic Zapata.

May special participation din sa pelikula sina Senator Bong Revilla, Derek Ramsay, Dingdong Dantes, Boy Abunda, Chef Boy Logro, Luis Alandy, Tim Yap, Gina Alajar, at tween stars ng GMA-7..

“Itong ginagawa namin na comedy, medyo bago siya sa mga comedy na napapanood natin.

“Pero since tinanggap na po siya ng mga nanonood ng Bubble Gang, I’m very, very sure na when you watch the film, you will also embrace this kind of comedy.

    Never akong natuwa o natawa sa Boy Pick-up. We find it super corny and nonsense. Mas entertaining pa si Chehe Bureche, Muchos Grasas at Yaya and Angelina pero hindi yung movie ha yung sa TV lang.

    Magaling si Ogie..sabagay, nagtratrabaho lang sia like a normal human being. Pero utang na loob..wala na bang ibang mas de kalidad na pelikulang alam gawin ang mga producer at artista. sia sige, nag aaliw lang ang masa dahil sa kahirapan o problema..kaya lang parang mas masarap atang paglabas mo ng sine e, may natutunan ka lang kahit konti.

    Sinong manonood nito??? This is probably one of the corniest movie ever made in the history of Philippine movies. Itong si Ogie, lalong naging corny at OA at hindi naman nakakatawa itong Boy Pickup!!!

    In my honest opinion dapat hindi na ginagawang movie ang kagaya nito kasi mas OK na sa TV lang... Pag nagiging movie kasi parang sobra na or nagiging corny... parang yung yaya at angelina...
