"Might be better on a second watch?"
I love how the movie feels light and easy to watch, but for me… it just kind of exists. If you're a fan of both leads, you'll definitely feel giddy and thrilled watching them together—but if you're looking for emotional depth or layered storytelling, this might not hit the mark.
Personally, I expected more—especially from the title. The plot had great potential, but I was really hoping they’d dive deeper into Jolo and Sari’s individual stories. It felt a bit rushed, like there was more to tell but not enough time to tell it.
I guess part of my disappointment comes from the fact that both of these amazing actors have delivered incredible performances before—like in Linlang and What’s Wrong With Secretary Kim. So my expectations were kind of high. Maybe it’s also because it’s a movie, and there's only so much they can fit in without dragging the story.
Still, I really hope they work together again in the future—but next time, in something more meaningful and emotionally rich. Something like Paulo Avelino’s I’m Drunk, I Love You—now that’s my kind of film.
