A little Redemption
I am not from the Philippines. and I am new to Filipino culture. So there is no bias when I say I like the movie and it did a good job redeeming the series for me. I went on a now 10 day Pinoy BL binge. mostly based on suggestions from youtube and this site. The series was good but after watching other BL Dramas I can say the acting was stiff. Tony Labrcus does not emote well and sometimes the partner chemistry was off. The Characters were great and endearing and the story sweet. The movie was much more believable you can tell the actors were much more comfortable with each other. Tony did a good job expressing the insecurity of not knowing your sexual identity, but still wanting to own your truth. You are in love and you don't care who it's with. He comes out without knowing in order to be with the person he loves. He does good in the series hitting this note as well. The self-awareness of Mico is great as he admits the newborn babygay vibes. It's awesome to see him step into himself. Mico has a part of my heart because he is a brave charming character but fave character JunJun. He is just a smart intuitive and insightful sage character. He is the Yoda of the story. Yes. There were still awkward moments and scenes that should've been flushed out, but the actors really step up their game. It's worth seeing both the series and the movie just to see the growth. In my Top 10, but not Top 5. My Top three are In Between (Sa Pagitan ng Kamusta at Paalam), Gameboys, and Gaya Sa Pelikula.
