Bromance: My Brother's Romance starring Zanjoe Marudo has grossed P50 million pesos entering into its second weekend according to Star Cinema. The movie, which also stars Cristine Reyes opened in theaters on May 15.
Directed by Wenn V. Deramas and produced by Skylight Films, the movie zoomed to the top of the box office in its first week and continues to make millions with each passing day. This marks the movie by far as the highest grossing film of Skylight Films, beating Corazon: Ang Unang Aswang.
Bromance's box office success was another proof of Direk Wenn Deramas' magic touch. However, Zanjoe Marudo's portrayal as the completely opposite twins Brando and Brandy also earned the praise.
Direk Wenn brought a different flavor to Bromance: My Brother’s Romance from his previous cinema movies—Praybeyt Benjamin, Sisterakas and This Guy’s In Love With You, Mare, all of which broke records at the box office.
“The casting is excellent. Zanjoe Marudo is a revelation, as he essayed both his roles with great versatility. Bromance: My Brother’s Romance is a good vehicle for him to display his range. This is his best movie—his performance is commendable and effortless—and it’s the perfect launching movie for him,” said a review by the Cinema Evaluation Board.
Bromance: My Brother’s Romance also boasts of a hilarious yet no less stellar supporting cast composed of Cristine Reyes (who plays Zanjoe’s love interest Erika) Arlene Muhlach, Joy Viado, Manuel Chua, Boom Labrusca, Joey Paras, Lassy, Nikki Valdez, Maricar De Mesa, Abbie Bautista, Carlo Romero and Jeff Luna.
The movie is still showing in cinemas nationwide.
