Crazy Beautiful You (2015)
Crazy and Beautiful
If you think this is a another typical Filipino love story movie where the male and female protagonists fall in-love. You are right. However, this would not keep me from recommending this to other people. Although the movie's plot foundations itself on the developing teen love between Kathryn Bernardo and Daniel Padilla, the overall story never shy to touch relationship issues as seen in various aspects. You will be surprised that the most meaningful and prevailing themes are forgiveness, humility and family. I really believe the love chemistry between Kathryn and Daniel was only used to sell the movie. The real beauty of this film is the depiction of the above-mentioned themes.
The movie was also a tourism ad for Mt. Pinatubo. Nothing satirical here. Just saying.
I guess it would not be much of a spoiler if I tell you that Daniel's character is the cocky kid as he usually is. I honestly find his lines too cheesy. I cannot explain why the girls in the theatre react to them. To be frank. I do not like Daniel Padilla.
That Thing Called Tadhana (2014)
A broken-hearted girl (Angelica Panganiban) meets a stranger (JM De Guzman) who helped her get over her past relationship but consequently falls in-love with her.
I am not a typical fan of the Filipino romantic-comedy genre, but this film is definitely one of my favorites under this class. "That Thing Called Tadhana" has a brilliantly crafted story-line, yet modestly simple. The plot literally comprehends only two subjects who are the protagonist couple. The love story is basically a strangers-into-lovers development. One of the noticeable innovations in this films is the lessened use of background music in every scene. Background soundtracks or music are generally mood setters for a particular scene. The scenes in this movie did not make use of such accessories. It primarily relied its witty dialogue, impressive acting of the actor and actress (especially Angelica Panganiban) and beautiful cinematography. Moreover, the symbolisms or analogies used in the movie significantly and perfectly reflected the plot of the story. A manifestation of intelligent writing. "That Thing Called Tadhana" is a standout among Filipino romantic-comedies!
