You wont cry but you will feel sad after watching the movie.

This film is a breath of fresh air. It's supposedly based on a true story of De Rossi's friend. You wonder whether this can happen in real life.

It chronicles memorable personal moments of best friends forever (Fuffy and Fream), funny and irreverent most of the time but occasionally sad. As such it has a playful tone, and pacing doesn't tarry unnecessarily.

As usual, Piolo Pascual's acting chops are on display here in his role as Fuffy. And Alessandra de Rossi is a pleasant surprise notably because she debuts as writer-director. She portrays the role of a gilted wife well. The ever dependable Luz Valdez essays her role as Fream's grandma credibly.

The outdoor shots are great.

It ends quite unexpectedly. At that point, the viewer realizes why it's important for Fuffy to tell their story as the film's narrator.

Things that I liked: the chemistry between the 2 main characters the jokes are funny

BUT

I don't remember one scene where the 2 main characters are separated (in the story, yes, but not in the movie). They are the only real characters, all the other people are just there, they don't serve any real purpose at all. Almost all the scenes look and feel the same. The story wasn't even worth the 1 hr. This entire movie could have been better off as a short film.

Oh yeah... the star thing was cheesy and cliche.

Very nice. Excellent Actors. I really like it. The chemistry between Andrea and Papa P is really good. I couldn't move on.

I tried giving it a chance by watching it for about 36 minutes. What a waste of time! Highly irritating dialogues in very cringy situations, like a teen movie in the 90's but played by adults in their 30's. It's cheesier than a block of asiago. Not cute, not romantic, and definitely not good.
