• S T O R Y: This movie is about the girl protagonist named Mika that wants to get caught by aliens. She is living with her father and stepmother because her mom died. One morning on her way of getting self-lost, she met the boy protagonist named Caloy who she found dumping poo around the corner. This boy came from a middle-class family and he has a cancer (Leukemia). Mika crossed Caloy's leg while driving for escape but she felt pity for Caloy so she helped him in the end and the story goes on.

• A C T I N G | A N D | C A S T: The cast was expected to be match made-in-heaven. This is the disgusting truth about Filipino Showbiz industry. You can't be partnered in other love teams yet you should stick with the person you went through from day 1 unlike in Thailand, they mix-match their actors and actresses for discoveries. Acting of Julia Baretto in this movie is better than every movie she did before. Well for Joshua Garcia, it's a quite so-so because of the crying scenes and whenever he pull off a joke. Crying scenes we're too mature to watch where it's like I'm watching a heavy lakorn instead of watching a light-weighted teen movie, and I said that because HE IS PARTNERED WITH JULIA BARETTO! Pulling off-joke scenes are not natural, it's like not that forced but it's quite a cringe for me. I'm not saying Joshua Garcia isn't a good actor, but some parts really lacks, but overall he did a job well done and he deserve all the awards.

• MUSIC: The OST is good because Moira dela Torre made a new rendition of Torete by Moonstar88 and that version was hell good! Moreover, I don't know any more music (are there more?).

• REWATCH VALUE: This is not that award-winning film-type of movie but it is quite good to rewatch. Good for relaxation and a quite romantic excitement.

• OVERALL: The movie deserves to be watched by other people around the globe. It's time for Filipino movies appreciation.
