MARIQUINA. In a movie review published by PEP.ph (Philippine Entertainment Portal) in 2014, the film directed by Milo Sogueco earned praise, especially for the acting skills of the stars.
Part of the said review reads, "The actors portray their roles very well.
"Barbie Forteza is a revelation. She shines in her portrayal as teenage Imelda. In the scene where she is waiting at a Chinese restaurant, you feel her vulnerability when she realizes that her mother has left her. Barbie’s scenes with Tita Tess (Bing Pimentel) are quiet but dramatic. Both actors navigate through the subtle rivalry their characters share.
