This is Vice Ganda's first non-VIVA Films produced film 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.

Synopsis

Special participation

Production

Vice Ganda announced on September 8, 2016, that the shooting for his film with Coco Martin has begun. The film was directed by Joyce Bernal.[10] By November 2016, the production of the film is already done.[11]

Release

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]

Marketing

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]

Soundtrack

"Ang Kulit", an original composition by Vice Ganda, was released as the movie's official theme song. 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

Box office

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

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]
