Super in ang mga dialogues and so real! Best watched with friends and loved ones as the lines deliver what’s in the hearts of anyone who can identify with love, laughter and relationships.English Only, Please tells of the charming rom-com story of the bond that develops between Fil-Am Julian Parker (Ramsay) and Tere Madlansacay (Mercado), the Filipino interpreter he hires. The two comes from different worlds who have one thing in common – they are both brokenhearted. Julian comes to Manila from New York with only one goal: to perfectly recite the Filipino translation of his angry letter to his half-Pinay ex-girlfriend Megan (Isabel Oli) — all with the help of the perky and feisty Tere, the Filipino-English tutor he hired online.
AWARDS GALORE
Derek proved to be a perfect foil to the adorable Jennylyn, who both turned in the finest performance of their careers. Both fit their characters to a T and act very naturally and charmingly in the movie. The awards the movie received are proof that English Only, Please is a refreshing and welcome change to the usual slapstick or horror movies lately being shown at Filmfests. Amongst these are:2nd Best Picture, Best Actor (Derek), Best Actress (Jennylyn), Best Director (Dan Villegas), Best Story (Antoinette Jadaone and Dan Villegas) and Best Screenplay: (Jadaone). Di ba sulit?
SOCIAL MEDIA SUCCESS
Celebrated indie filmmaker Antoinette Jadaone, who co-wrote the unheralded romantic comedy with Anj Pessumal, verified the film’s success through its Facebook, Instagram and Twitter messages, with photos of sold-out and SRO screenings.
Scriptwriter Antoniette Jadaone, who is also behind last year’s “Beauty in a Bottle” and “Relaks, It’s Just Pag-Ibig,” agreed: “There is no publicity like positive word-of-mouth. I never imagined this would happen. There are people asking for a sequel… it’s heartwarming that viewers want to follow the lives of the characters we created.” She has heard from netizens who saw the film more than once—“Three or four times, with different sets of friends. They shelled out hard-earned money to share the experience.”

"English Only Please"
Julian Parker (Derek Ramsay) comes to Manila from New York with only one goal: to perfectly recite the Filipino translation of his angry letter to his half-Pinay ex-girlfriend Megan --- all with the help of the perky Filipino-English tutor he hired online.
Tere Madlansacay (Jennylyn Mercado) is a top-notch Filipino-English tutor. She is strict and feisty and takes pride in teaching English and/or Filipino to more than 142 Americans, Fil-Ams, Koreans since 2006. Muntik na nga raw siya ang mag-tutor ng Advanced English and Filipino kay Sandara Park, kung hindi lang ito bumalik sa Korea.
Taking the perfect light romantic-comedic tone of popular Asian movies, with feisty leading ladies who are funny, charming and lovable --- English Only, Please is a simple love story about how love knows no bounds. Basta nangyayari na lang, hindi na kailangang ipa-translate.
