Through Night and Day

Love the story, relatable to many relationships. Outstanding acting from the actors especially Paolo Contis. And the setting, Baguio and Iceland, perfect!

This is a movie that was born out of a high schooler's mind. The story is so predictable and cliche that even the twist is to be expected you'll just wait for it to happen.

We all know that Alex is a great and versatile actress but, her role in this one just doesn't stick. Her character is plainly annoying. The only redeeming factor about this movie is Paolo Contis and Joey Marquez's acting.

"Through Night and Day" is a love story with a very predictable ending. The movie was well made and had good shots of Iceland but the plot and script didn't do it for me and were way too shallow. At just 1 hour and 40 mins, i still felt kinda bored and just started using my phone but i still predicted what would happen. Netflix's recent local releases: "Untrue" and "Sunod" are better than this.

The movie did what it wanted to do to viewers. Cry. Does it automatically means its a great film? Not exactly. It was saved by great acting on all parties. It had its moments but the rest was too predictable. The ending reminds me of another pinoy movie. Some scenes were like skits you see in an abs/gma teleserye. I honestly enjoyed it but just disappointed with how simple the story is.

This film is so overrated. I even asked myself why did I watched this. The experience was horrible, terrible. It is indeed poignant. How could this indie film be such? This one looks so light and bright but hits damn hard. I regret watching this before the day breaks. When everyone is having their good night sleep, having their sweetest dreams. I should've forced myself to sleep rather. I don't know if I can still do the errands set for the day as this film exhausted my whole being. It digged the deepest of my emotions piled and buried for a long time that my mind can't even remember. 30 minutes to an hour later after watching, I still find myself being so pathetic with a swollen face grasping for some air to breathe. So I am begging for those who haven't watched, please watch at your own risk.
