I know every1 has their own taste of fil soaps..but i like this one because it's not like the others. I've noticed that the story plots and events in soaps are very similar and I like Kampanerang Kuba because it is something new. No it's not a tear jerker and it won't touch your heart like the other soaps have, but it's fun and of course, not 2 be taken seriously. I watch this with my younger sister, and it's about the only soap we can watch together. I definitely recommend kampanerang kuba to anyone willing to watch something out of the ordinary. I doubt anything like Kampanerang Kuba will happen anytime during this lifetime, but it's cute and like i said, something new.

Thought I would watch this and it's trash. Unoriginal, not funny. Stupid. Don't listen to the reviews that give it 10. Save yourself some time and watch something better.

This is a fairytale story of a hunchback with a good deed turned beautiful in the end. I've seen the TV series and the story is good and enjoyable although it's a bit drag somewhere in the middle but in the end, everything turns out right with a very good moral lesson and a happy ending. I especially like the guy Imang has chosen to be her true love. They look good together!!! People will never guess who she will choose as there are so many twists in the story but in the end she did chose the perfect guy and I was not disappointed. The story is worth watching! It's a mixture of drama and comedy. The cast really performed well. I cried for Imang, Lourdes and Lucia, and wanna slap and punch Veronica on the face for being cruel and so mean. That's how good they are in acting. I rate this as 8/10.

As a self-proclaimed TV and movie critic I decided to give 'Kampanerang Kuba', a chance, much like all the other Philippine movie and TV shows I reviewed. I wasn't disappointed: It was so insanely shallow and mind-numbing I was literally on the floor laughing my brains out. Truly I have never laughed so hard in my life, and what made this soap opera so funny is that the makers never meant it to be that way.

'Kampanerang Kuba' is a TV remake of the popular Vilma Santos movie, Whoever thought that remaking corn-and-camp 60's movies into TV soap opera musicals must absolutely be out of their minds. This time around, "Paris Hilton of the Philippines" Anne Curtis stars as the Quasimodo--or rather--Quasimoda character who, by magical and fantastical reasons, is transformed into a pretty girl and thirsty for revenge against those pretty boy jocks who did not take her out to prom night.

I was laughing my brains out because the show is just fantastically terrible it was laughable. It wasn't as bad as, say, 'Manos: the Hands of Fate', but comparable to classic BAD movies of Ed Wood. It wasn't a bit funny on the supposed funny scenes, but it was a Hell of a lot of fun during the campy scenes: Do you want to know where our hunchback heroine came from? FROM THE ENCHANTED LAND OF THE SINGING HUNCHBACKS! Yes, somehow, somewhere, there's an alternate magical land where everyone is an equally beautiful hunchback with a beautiful singing voice. How crazy can you get?

Next, The immortal soapish elements are present in here, making KK look like the cast of 'Pangako Sa Yo'playing dress-up. Yes, It's very early to make fun of this terrible show, but this is the same feeling as knowing a film will definitely suck even after just a few minutes of viewing it. KK is so terrible and repetitive, it will make you gouge your eyes out.

The only nicer elements of KK is that of the performance of soap legends of Jean Garcia and 'Ms. Powers' herself Eula Valdez. However, even with the insertion of these two power players (which we've seen before in 'Pangako Sa Yo'), the two of them cannot redeem this titanic production.

This being said, somebody ought to ban fantaseryes, telefantasyas, and all of it's incarnations. Somebody should start a revolution.
