Yummy Coco at your Serbis!




Good story + Power cast = Big Success! This formula remains to be true for “Walang Hanggan”. Leading the cast is Coco Martin that after the success of “Minsan Lang Kita Iibigin”, ABS-CBN entrusted him yet another heavy TV drama on primetime. The man has an undeniable charisma and his huge following is enough proof of that.

We all know Coco made a series of Indie films before and has received awards to both local and international for his impressive performance. One of his highly acclaimed films was “Serbis” in 2008. I had the chance to watch the movie last week because my friend told me it’s a must-watch! Knowing how indie films work these days, I asked her if it’s not a “pucho-pucho” one… but the reply wasn’t actually a direct answer to my question. She’s more concerned with Coco’s frontal nudity scene which she described as “maugat”! (…just enough for me to search for the film’s uncut version online. Haha!) I wasn’t bored at all. I don’t know if this is because of my anticipation to see that one particular scene or I was really into the story of the movie. As much as I’d like to say both... I know in my heart and mind that I was more into seeing that particular “scene” of Coco. LOL! I would even say that I find it impressive… uhmmm I mean the movie… it’s beyond what I expected of an Indie film.



"Serbis is an independent film by Brillante Mendoza, starring Gina Pareño and RP’s prince of indie movies Coco Martin. The film is a story of men who offer sexual services inside a movie house. It was invited to the official competition of the 61st Cannes Festival in France and was regarded as the most controversial in Cannes for the year 2008."

Btw, Coco is Star Studio Magazine’s July cover boy plus a 40-page cover story about his humble beginnings up to this day where he has become a household name.

Back to “Walang Hanggan”, the story gets better and better. Watching it has been our nightly routine with my family. Kudos to those people working hard to make it more beautiful!
