Salamat Daks (2023) Movie Review

​Get ready for a riotous and surprisingly touching comedy about the pursuit of lost youth! Salamat Daks (2023) is the Filipino sex-comedy drama from Vivamax, now available for download and streaming on HdHubFlix!

​The film centers on Maricar (Alma Moreno), a 52-year-old woman who feels she wasted her best years caring for her now-deceased mother. Finally free, she finds happiness in the videos of a young, attractive social media influencer named Mikko (Nikko Natividad). Her dream of meeting him turns into a nightmare when she is publicly mocked and criticized for her age at his fan meeting.

​Devastated but determined, Maricar decides to take a desperate measure: undergoing extensive plastic surgery to look young again, transforming into the vibrant Carrie (Ayanna Misola). With her new, youthful identity, “Carrie” finally manages to meet Mikko, and a passionate, yet complicated, romance blossoms between the older woman (in a younger body) and the younger man.

​The comedy comes from Maricar’s hilarious attempts to maintain her new persona while navigating the challenges of a new generation and the inevitable complications of her hidden identity. However, critics noted that beneath the wackiness, the film delivers a surprisingly honest message about embracing the present and finding love that accepts you for who you are, regardless of age or physical appearance. Alma Moreno is praised for her commitment to the role, while Nikko Natividad completely sheds his previous wholesome image.
