Reception

The 18th MMFF logged the highest attendance out of any year of the festival's history at the time, with an attendance of 6.898 million. It also surpassed ₱100 million in total film gross for the first time.

Vice Mayor of Manila Lito Atienza criticized the festival for its "total commercialization" and losing its "reason of being, which is the promotion of good Filipino values through the arts."
