For The First Time earned 15M pesos!
The movie, For the First Time, starring local cinemas KC Concepcion and Richard Gutierrez, reportedly earned a cool Php15 million in its first week of showing. Considering the state of the economy nowadays, that is really a BIG amount!
But I have a theory why it earned that much… novelty. This is KC’s first movie and the first team up between the two. KC is daughter of local showbiz Megastar Sharon Cuneta and comebacking actor Gabby Concepcion. She was sheltered and was sparsely shown to the masses. Seeing her acting now is something new to most people.
Story-wise, the movie is so-so.
