Para sa Hopeless Romantic (2015)

Also from Wikipedia: Becca (Nadine Lustre) thought that she had everything she could wish for in her life, until Nikko (James Reid) broke up with her. Everything in her life starts to fall apart. To recover, she started writing a story about Ryan (Inigo Pascual), a boy who harbors a secret crush on his best friend Maria (Julia Barretto). But before he can tell her his real feelings for her, he got into an accident and fell into a coma. Can all four of them find the "happy ending" that each one of them has been hoping for?



A realistic, but feel good movie that proves JaDine has what it takes to be serious actors and not just a "pa-cute" love team.

The two jell and their onscreen tandem is one of the most electrifying pairs there is.

The story written by Marcelo Santos III is perfect for them and in his story Nikko(James Reid) and Becca(Nadine Lustre) are REAL people and their fictitious counterparts are Ryan(Iñigo Pascual) and Maria(Julia Barretto) who both did great too.  Both Pascual and Barretto are progenies of very good artists, if not great, but both have proven that they are more than their parents' children.

You also cannot discount the acting abilities of Jourdanne Castillo, Paul Jake Castillo, Shy Carlos, Issa Pressman, AJ Muhlach, Lander Vera Perez, Teresa Loyzaga, Jackielou Blanco and Cherie Gil, among others, gave the main characters great acting support.  Their team effort(including the main characters) helped Andoy Ranay and his crew make Marcelo Santos III's story into a beautiful movie.

Everyone makes mistakes, but not everyone is given other chances to make up for them, and this is what the story is all about...or should I say stories?  ;-)

Para sa Hopeless Romantic is indeed for the Hopeless Romantic, but it is also for the cynical.

What do I mean by that?

Watch the movie so you would understand.
