John Arcilla proves that he is not just a Best Actor for nothing. Iba ang batuhan ng linya dito. Makatotohanan. We are not watching actors portraying a character but the characters itself. For me this characters look real. #DirtyLinen deserve an international award👏🏻 pic.twitter.com/b0VMAzrs1r

This scene was soooo great. At ang galing talaga dito ni John Arcilla yung part na naiyak na lang sya sa galit at pagkabwiset kay Dona Cielo 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 #DirtyLinen https://t.co/OVjemAbaY4

JOHN ARCILLA, ANGEL AQUINO, and TESSIE TOMAS confrontation scene is acing. Not to mention the superb musical scoring, camera angle, and color grading. Everything in this series is top-tier. #DLAbduction #DirtyLinen pic.twitter.com/6Xk0krHuFp

If this were a nomination reel for supporting actress I’d give the award to Janice de Belen. Ang liit ng ganap niya pero yun grin na nahahagip ng camera, on point. But it’d be a really close call. https://t.co/H3aWTt3CDJ

Others lauded the intense scene, accompanied by the powerful performances of the seasoned actors.
FOUR POWERHOUSES DELIVERING VARYING LEVELS OF TOPNOTCH ACTING! 💗
Carlos' rage, Doña Cielo's restraint and shame, the complexity of how Feliz should process all these, and Leona's apathy and her finding pleasure in all the chaos. DAMN!#DLAbduction #DirtyLinen pic.twitter.com/WcyxXWBSEF
