A lot of people wonder what we see in John Lloyd Cruz. They claim he's not even that handsome and he is overrated. I beg to differ. This young man is very charismatic and he acts well. His eyes are very expressive and he is a natural. Advertisers think he is bankable and so do production outfits, et cetera.
Here he plays Raffy Sandoval, a Public Relations specialist/expert who chances upon Aprilyn Esguerra(Sarah Geronimo) when she was having one of her episodes after being jilted by her "future husband" on their supposedly wedding day. It was by the fountain at Serendra.
The story has light and funny moments, and maybe that's why the film ratings board rated this G, but there are topics not for kids like threats made by Mayor Garcia(no relation to us) played by Dennis Padilla.
Sarah G has improved her craft(I've seen her in person...she looks more beautiful and she looks sweeter...Signorino Matteo Guidicelli was with her and was very protective during the Michael Bublé concert at the MOA Arena) and she's even nicer to look at. At first you would want to throw your shoes at Aprilyn for being so obsessed/fixated with her supposedly "future husband" played by Enchong Dee, but later, one would, like what happened to Raffy Sandoval, slowly like her...she grows on you.
The story is not new. Yes. It is INDEED formulaic, but it works. It's not perfect, but it's very enjoyable.
The main actors have great chemistry and the supporting cast did do justice to their roles.
Christian Bables as Noah is not as spectacular as Barb, but he delivered.
I don't need to do a roll call. I'll just say what I always say when I like(not love) a certain film:
Kudos to everyone involved in this film!
(But maybe, just maybe, you guys need to think about another "formula" for Sarah and Lloydie/ AshLloyd for their "future" tandem(s), if there's any in the offing)
