If you loved the series, you will love the movie.

Our babies are back!! As in love as we left them, ready to deepen their relationship!!

Now, as for technical aspects, is a total improvement, the colors, photography, camerawork, the acting, continuity... They made an awesome job with the 1 season of the series, it was almost imposible to believe that plenty of that was recorded with computers and phones. Now, being able to use good equipment, a bigger team, and be together on set, everything got elevated.

The acting was everything we could expect from this two talented actors. Being able to reciprocate in situ made the chemistry go even further, if that was even possible, they made it happen. The supporting cast delivered their roles, specially Pearl and Aquilles.

Plotwise, we got what we knew and continued where we left it. The characters dealing with their new realities, emotions and the family issues, this time more centered on Gab's side. It was very well delivered, i would have enjoyed a bit more time for the main couple to connect and all that. After the series, we all wished and were really invested into them having what the pandemic didn't let them before, and i feel like i needed a bit more of that here, just for them, just a bit more prior to all the people that came at once.
I kinda felt that Terrence and Wes relationship was a bit rushed and needed more story in between, i wished they didn't give us the rush and focus less on that here in the movie, but let it develop more in the 2 season. I feel like i haven't been able to really be invested in their story or see their fellings for each others and emotions develop or flow.

The endind is well thought for us to be eager to see what's next and ready to jump into the 2 season whenever they give it to us, but not too heartbreaking to leave us on the floor bawling our eyes out. A bittersweet but hopeful ending, for now, and we all know is just a see you later.

Overall it maintained the level of the series, and we reinforced the fact that we have here a perfect pairing of 2 of the best young actors from the Philippines with a magical chemistry shy to none.

Recommended? Wholeheartedly
