Reception

[edit]

The film was not well received by the public, and on the first day of opening landed last place in the box-office in the two-week Metro Manila Film Festival.[2] It was also one of two films (the other being Nobody, Nobody But... Juan starring Dolphy) to not win an award during the festival, it was considered a box office flop of 2009.
