Reception for ALDub's 'My Bebe Love' film
Though 'My Bebe Love' garnered good ticket sales, it also earned negative reviews from film critics.
"If there is a Razzie Award for the MMFF, GMA Films' My Bebe Love would probably sweep this. The film may just be one of the worst films in MMFF history," DList.ph said.
