If you like to be scared, if you like to laugh, and if you like to learn a thing or two at the movies, this absolutely cannot be missed.

Just intense enough to provide a much-needed diversion, just lightweight enough to make you forget about it soon after it’s over. It’s not exactly “good,” per se, but it does what it sets out to do in terms of putting us on edge, which makes it … successful?

Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.

Ok... Let's be honest. It cannot be the best movie but is quite enjoyable. The movie has the potential to develop a great plot for future movies

This is undoubtedly one of the Best Films I have ever watched in my entire life. Most Filipino movies are corny and lack any sense of reality, but this movie defined a generation, and it's one of the most important movies that reflects the Filipino youth of the 2000s, struggling to achieve their dreams and using their street smarts at the same time to overcome diversity, and it's done in an amazing way. And it's so funny too, Assunta de Rossi is an amazing actress, and she stole the show in this movie as the sassy street smart young college student trying to make it in the world, she is so hilarious in this movie and it's no wonder she won the coveted Best Actress award at the Manila Film Festival (the Philippines' version of the Oscars) because she is an amazing actress bringing life to both drama and comedy, and to any role she tackles. An amazing movie.

"Jologs" has got to be my favorite Filipino movie ever (next to "Anak") the way the stories come together in the end is perfect, intense and amazing! Most Filipino films out there are extremely cheesy and lack any kind of substance but this movie is not in any of those categories. The different segments are funny, sad and touching. The events that take place in the segments are insane! You never know what's going to happen next! The young cast is brilliant and shows just how much talent they have by bringing this film to life. I love the way it shows that people are connected (and we really are). You actions affect the next person's day, life etc."Jologs" reminded me more of Magnolia than Pulp Fiction but anyways, I own this on VCD and is one of those rare Filipino movies that I would recommend to any Filipino out there.P.S. I want to remake this into a North American film!

i was completely surprised about my reaction to this film. i thought it would really be "jologs" but it wasn't at all. it's cool the way it makes you realize that hey, it really IS a small world and in one way or another, there are connections between you and that guy peeing by the wall, you know what i'm saying? plus, the actors here whom i usually don't like (assunta de rossi to name one) were really good here. i also thought it was funny the way there were dozens of cameos in this movie. this is one movie you'd watch over and over and never get bored.

I don't watch a lot of Filipino comedy. One reason is they're all the same! "Slapstick" actions then the infamous sing-and-dance number in some resort or beach. The typical Filipino movie. Some are even stupid!But Jologs is a surprisingly different one! Backed up with a stellar cast (including a really funny Assunta de Rossi) and a great script/story this is my FAVORITE Filipino movie. It's different, funny and dramatic... all at the right times! The story is all about how small this world is! Several scenes are repeated, and pretty soon you don't have to be a detective to figure out the whole story line and how all characters play an important role in each others life. Similar to Pulp Fiction, but with Filipino edge.This movie could have a lot of imdb goofs with continuity and all, but this is a good movie. And you wouldn't care less. Great soundtrack, great movie.
