One More Try is a Philippine drama film released in 2012. This movie stars Angel Locsin, Angelica Panganiban, and Dingdong Dantes, three of the most respected and talented actors in the Philippines. Directed by Ruel S. Bayani, this film tells the story of how far a mother would go to save her child's life, at the expense of her own well-being.

The film follows the story of Grace (Angel Locsin), a young mother who finds out that her son, Botchok (Miguel Vergara), has a rare blood disease that requires a bone marrow transplant. The problem is, Botchok's father, Edward (Dingdong Dantes), is nowhere to be found. Grace tries to contact Edward, but he has moved on with his life and has no interest in helping out.

Desperate to save her son's life, Grace turns to her friend, Jacqueline (Angelica Panganiban), a successful OB-GYN who had an affair with Edward before he left Grace. Jacqueline initially hesitates to help, but she realizes that she might be Botchok's only hope. She arranges for a bone marrow transplant and begins to bond with the child, something that Grace is not happy about.

The relationship between Grace and Jacqueline becomes even more complicated when Edward re-enters the picture. He finds out about his son's condition and offers to donate his bone marrow. Grace is torn between her love for Edward and her loyalty to her son's surrogate mother. The situation becomes even more complicated when Jacqueline confesses her feelings for Edward.

One More Try is a deeply emotional film that explores the theme of sacrifice and the lengths that a mother would go to save her child's life. The film is beautifully shot, with breathtaking visuals that capture the essence of Manila, the city where the story is set. The performances of the three lead actors are exceptional, with Angel Locsin delivering a powerful and nuanced portrayal of a mother who will stop at nothing to save her child. Angelica Panganiban is equally impressive as the selfless friend who risks everything to help Grace, while Dingdong Dantes delivers a subtle and understated performance as the man caught in the middle of two women who love him.

The film also explores issues of infidelity, guilt, and redemption, as the characters try to come to terms with their past mistakes and find a way to move forward. The complex relationships between the characters are portrayed with sensitivity and empathy, making the audience care deeply about their fates.

Overall, One More Try is a moving and powerful film that will resonate with viewers who have experienced the joy and pain of parenthood. The film is a testament to the power of love and the human spirit, and a must-see for anyone who loves Philippine cinema.
