He also noted the film's regular use of [toilet humor](/source/Toilet_humour), which he recognized is a staple for the lead trio's films, stating that "[i]t is offensive but the audience loves it just the same."<ref>{{cite news|last=Soriano|first=Luciano E.|title=Aiming for nothing but money|url=https://news.google.com/newspapers?nid=8cBNEdFwSQkC&dat=19870910&printsec=frontpage&hl=en|access-date=April 23, 2021|work=[Manila Standard](/source/Manila_Standard)|publisher=Standard Publications, Inc.|date=September 10, 1987|page=11}}</ref>
