In Between (Sa Pagitan ng Kamusta at Paalam) Episode 1

Three Stars

was a bit confused about what came before and after, but considering the look on both Otep and Tau's face, seeing each other after a while. i get they were together - but then as they were childhood buds that grew to love each other - shouldn't their other friends know about them? if not, who did Otep refer too, when he said "we should've listened to them..." as in they should never have started anything and remained friends?!?

also "i love u, thank u, but sorry" is a b.s break-up line, the least u owe the person u (still) love, is the truth. so i'm totally behind Otep, hope he makes Tau suffer

side note - dude playin Jet is FINE!!!!

In Between (2020) Episode 1: Muli

I just finished watching the two-part Episode 1: Muli. The plot/storyline seemed promising. It opened dramatically with Tau breaking up with Otep. While it's obvious Migs is more experienced in acting, Genesis did held his own in the opening scene. I felt that Genesis needed to dial down a bit but his acting overall was fine. Migs may not be an Elijah or a Kokoy but he did have different layers in his acting. Both Migs and Genesis looked sexy in their own way so that's a plus. I love their look. They seemed perfect for their roles. Most of the support cast have acting experience. I remember Renshi, Lara, and Shiara from the movie "Class of 2018" (2018). They were ok but I felt that like Genesis, Lara needed to tone down a bit to avoid overacting. The screenplay was realistic enough. Production design was alright. The use of Baybayin was really nice. Editing was generally satisfactory although there where scenes in the first part wherein the audio was not perfectly in sync with the video. Music was also up to par but the series needs a good OST. Overall, it's a good pilot episode and I'll definitely watch the next episode!
