==Synopsis==
==Plot==
Paco is a gang leader known for starting gang wars in their slum neighborhood. Ariel "Arci" Ciriaco works as an executive assistant to Marife Delos Santos, wife of General Aldo Delos Santos. Marife asks Arci if he could be the caretaker of their house, or she will not sponsor his plan to go to [[South Korea]]. Arci meets his long-time friend Sarah after Arci's visa to South Korea is approved. Sarah asks Arci to take care of her sons Melvin "Megan" Gaspar and Ernie if anything happens to her,<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://entertainment.abs-cbn.com/tv/updates/93112516-the-making-of-the-super-parental-guardians|title=The making of 'The Super Parental Guardians'|website=ABS-CBN Entertainment}}</ref> especially from the notorious crime syndicate Addictus Anonymous, who kill people who are addicted to anything. Sarah goes to Arci's house with a knife stabbed in her back and a placard stating that she was addicted to [[Balut (food)|balut]]. Before dying, Sarah asks Arci to take her sons. At her funeral, Arci encountered Paco and told him that he is here to take the children. But Paco threatens him and says he would be the one to take care of his nephews until Paco decides to stay with Arci along with Megan and Ernie. He says that they will leave when he finds out who killed his sister. Megan also finds out that Arci is in love with Paco. Megan does not want to replace his mother because Paco is like a father to him and Ernie. Now, the Addictus Anonymous is targeting those who are traitors in their organization. In Sarah's diary, they discover that she had a relationship with three men, who were members of Addictus Anonymous that were later killed.
The Super Parental Guardians or ''TSPG'' tells the story of unlikely "parents" Arci ([[Vice Ganda]]) and Paco ([[Coco Martin]]). Custody of the children Megan ([[Awra Briguela]]) and Ernie ([[Onyok Pineda]]) was given to Arci just before the death of his best friend Sarah ([[Matet de Leon]]). The children's uncle, Paco, has no choice but to live and get along with Arci. As they play the roles of ''Momshie'' and ''Popshie'' to the children, the craziest and greatest adventure of their lives will now begin.<ref>http://entertainment.abs-cbn.com/tv/updates/93112516-the-making-of-the-super-parental-guardians</ref>


Megan and Ernie are kidnapped by Marife's men. Paco and Arci catch Clumsy and there, she admits that the children were brought to a [[train station]]. Paco, his men and Arci come to save Megan and Ernie. Arci enters the train and knocks down Marife. They pour gasoline and started a fire, causing the train to explode. Arci and the children escape unharmed.

The Super Parental Guardians is a 2016 Philippine action comedy film starring Vice Ganda and Coco Martin. The film is directed by Joyce Bernal and is under the production of Star Cinema.[3][4] The film marks the second feature film collaboration between Coco and Vice after Beauty and the Bestie. This is Vice Ganda's first film without the involvement of VIVA Films and the first to be directed by Bernal since Wenn V. Deramas' death in February 2016. This also marks as Vice Ganda's first non-MMFF movie, together with Enteng Kabisote 10 and the Abangers since This Guy's in Love with U Mare! in 2012.

The film grossed ₱598 million and became one of the highest grossing Filipino films of all time. [5][6][7] The film also holds the record for highest opening day gross of all Filipino films, at ₱75 million.[8]

Plot

[edit]

Paco is a gang leader known for starting gang wars in their slum neighborhood. Ariel "Arci" Ciriaco works as an executive assistant to Marife Delos Santos, wife of General Aldo Delos Santos. Marife asks Arci if he could be the caretaker of their house, or she will not sponsor his plan to go to South Korea. Arci meets his long-time friend Sarah after Arci's visa to South Korea is approved. Sarah asks Arci to take care of her sons Melvin "Megan" Gaspar and Ernie if anything happens to her,[9] especially from the notorious crime syndicate Addictus Anonymous, who kill people who are addicted to anything. Sarah goes to Arci's house with a knife stabbed in her back and a placard stating that she was addicted to balut. Before dying, Sarah asks Arci to take her sons. At her funeral, Arci encountered Paco and told him that he is here to take the children. But Paco threatens him and says he would be the one to take care of his nephews until Paco decides to stay with Arci along with Megan and Ernie. He says that they will leave when he finds out who killed his sister. Megan also finds out that Arci is in love with Paco. Megan does not want to replace his mother because Paco is like a father to him and Ernie. Now, the Addictus Anonymous is targeting those who are traitors in their organization. In Sarah's diary, they discover that she had a relationship with three men, who were members of Addictus Anonymous that were later killed.

Megan and Ernie are kidnapped by Marife's men. Paco and Arci catch Clumsy and there, she admits that the children were brought to a train station. Paco, his men and Arci come to save Megan and Ernie. Arci enters the train and knocks down Marife. They pour gasoline and started a fire, causing the train to explode. Arci and the children escape unharmed.

Release

[edit]

On November 7, 2016, Vice stated that his film, then entitled Super Parental Guidance or SPG was already submitted as an entry for the 2016 Metro Manila Film Festival (MMFF)[11] beating the deadline set by the MMFF which was on November 2.[12] The film was not selected as one of the 8 entries to be shown in the film festival.[13] On November 21, Star Cinema announced that the movie would be released in theaters on November 30, 2016.[14]

The film was initially shown in the Philippines at 240 cinemas but was later increased to 280 and then 309 cinemas due to public demand and popularity.[15][16][17][18]

The trailer for the film was released on November 21, 2016, which shows that the title of the film was changed to The Super Parental Guardians.[13]

It was first heard on November 21, 2016, via MOR 101.9 during a late night show with DJ Joco Loco.[19][20] Vice and Coco performed the song on ASAP stage on November 27, 2016, as part of the movie's promotion. They are joined by child stars Awra Briguela and Onyok Pineda who are also part of the movie.[21]

Reception

[edit]

[edit]

Upon its release, The Super Parental Guardians eventually became a box office success earning ₱75 million on its first day[22][23][24] breaking the record of My Bebe Love in 2015 which grossed Php 60.5 million on its first day.[25][26][27] By December 8, 2016, the film already garnered at least ₱300 million.[28]

About two weeks later on December 24, 2016, the film breached the ₱500 million mark.[29] By January 3, 2017, the film already managed to earn ₱590.1 million[30]

Critical response

[edit]

It received generally negative reviews from critics. Oggs Cruz of Rappler gave a negative review, commenting on the film's plot as "unsurprisingly threadbare", and adds that "[it] fails to be the powerful thing it could and should have been [...] it desensitizes the public to the horrors of whatever is happening in society."[31] Reviewer Jansen Musico of CNN Philippines was displeased with the film, commenting that "[T]his two-hour vaudeville is entertaining in small, healthy doses. Anything more feels like a waste of neurons." [...] [M]any of the film's jokes are one-offs that are overstuffed into a thin, flimsy script, bloating it with news and pop culture references that add nothing to the main story arc."[32]

On the other hand, a reviewer from Philippine Daily Inquirer's Bandera praised the film, giving a score of 9 out of 10, writing that the film "is so light it perfectly fits for Pinoys who only want to be entertained this Christmas," and "delivers its purpose to make audiences laugh hard that many of them need despite with what's currently happening in the country."[33]
