At first I was uncertain if I was gonna watch it. And the reason is, I couldn't think of anyone to watch it with. Kit is not exactly a fan of Filipino Romantic Comedies. Baduy daw.
After I saw the banner posted at SM North, I mentioned it to my dad. Turns out, he wants to watch it, too. Apparently, he likes John Lloyd. So my dad and I went on a John Lloyd date. Hahaha. On the way to the theater, we talked about him. My dad thinks that John Lloyd could be the next Aga Muhlach. Like Aga, JL (i don't wanna call him Lloydy) can make his leading ladies look good (so my dad says).
To talk about the movie... Over-all, it was good. Funny, mature, nakakakilig.
JL became more appealing by the minute. And Sarah seemed mature. I know she sings well, dances well, but I haven't really seen her act.
This movie proves my dad's point: JL can make his leading ladies look good. I was worried about the age gap, but they pulled it off. They actually had chemistry. And the comedic timing is perfect! Ang lalagkit pa ng tinginan nila. And John Lloyd's smile was just... *sighs*
Acting-wise, galing talaga ni JL. Si Sarah naman talented at sobrang nakakatawa. Yung ibang characters, naguusap lang sa mata. Halos lahat sila mata lang ginagamit magcommunicate. Supporting actors sa work place were super funny. Joross Gamboa, Gio Alvarez and Matet, nakakatawa.
Cinematography-wise, galing din. Puro head shots lang, halos.
Story-wise, light plot. The movie didn't focus much on the love part. Magaan lang yun meeting nila, pagkakaintindihan, at pagkakasakitan. Hindi heavy drama na hahagulgol ka kasi sobrang sakit. Tama lang. Ouch lang. Ganon. Pero I believe the story focused more on JL's character rather than the love story.
I know it's a John Lloyd-Sarah tandem. And I know that Filipino films tend to be baduy. But I assure you, it's not baduy. Super fun. Tatawa ka, promise!

Since this movie is expected to be funny, it only made me giggle. Not really laugh out loud. Kinda reminded me of The Tuxedo. Mas natawa pa nga ako don eh.
If you like Steve, you'll like this. Kinda weird to see him and Hathaway kissing. He is 20 years her senior! Eww!
This was a remake. I wonder how the other movie did.

I give it 5 stars!
It's super funny. I had no idea what the movie was all about before I watched it.
Ben Stiller (Eddie) plays these roles that make him look stupid or a loser. And he's super funny here. He just got married after 6 weeks of dating Lila. They've never had sex and didn't really have time to get to know each other since they kept on kissing whenever they're together. He married her because she was gonna go to Germany for business. So they went on their honeymoon, and BOOM! She's a totally different person, having deep dark secrets. Then while on their honeymoon, Eddie meets another woman. Someone who's different, smart, one he could talk with, and shares the same interests as he does.
The comedic timing is perfect. The twists would make you laugh hard. Opens your eyes to the consequences of marrying when you're not ready yet and when you just jumped into it without thinking it through. The movie is basically about marriage in all forms. If you need to unwind, you should see this.
