It has received fairly positive reviews from local critics, with some comparing Garcia, who plays a shy, geeky, college student named Vince who harbors a crush on Kath, to veteran actor John Lloyd Cruz. </p><p>It was picked as Star Cinema&#x27;s entry to this year&#x27;s MMFF following the exclusion of &quot;The Super Parental Guardians.&quot; </p>
