Un/Happy for You

This movie is a pain to watch; the main characters are written terribly, seemingly on purpose. The story doesn't make sense, and this movie is a waste of time. The only good thing about this movie is that it is shot well and has good camera work, just like all modern movies. Unfortunately, that doesn't save this story of disaster. This movie tries to make you root for these characters, but they are so selfish, with awkward moments that don't make sense. This movie's story goes back and forth between shallow apologies and regrettable mistakes. Don't waste your time with this movie, as this is another cash-grab movie that thinks it's so clever and deep about love and heartbreak but ends up falling terribly short. This movie is artificially shallow and is one of many examples of garbage movies that poorly represent Filipino cinema.

Aside from me having a personal experience with what's happening on the movie, the movie is so great, with this JoshLia loveteam movie comeback.

I learned different things on this movie, about the culture, maturity and how Juancho learned from his mistakes.

If you are heartbroken or a person that left on a TIRING relationship or the person who was left behind, this movie is for you.

JoshLia acting is so pure and amazing, never made me boo even just a second. There's no hanging moments, the awkwardness of the two couple (based on the acting) is so natural, not BAD acting. I felt the feelings that the two characters were feeling. I felt everything,

So if you are again, a fan of FILIPINO ROMANCE MOVIE or you are a fan of JOSHLIA, then this movie is for you.

Okay, first of all, this is the first filipino movie i've watched in cinemas ever since i moved here, and i gotta tell you, this movie is POINTLESS.

The jokes are unfunny, the story is plain bs, the only thing good about this movie is the trailer, i know right? The trailer is the only thing good about this movie.

Really, filipino movies were great, but ever since i don't know. Like 2016? It had gone HORRIBLY WRONG.

And ever since "Viva Films" decided to make "Vivamax" they have been NOT doing well.

The movie is rated "PG" in the Philippines but dosen't take the "Soft-corn" scenes into accountability, and i've watched Tarot, and trust me, Un/happy for you should've been rated R-13.

This movie really sucks, don't watch it for gods sake.

This movie is The Hows of Us, My Ex and Whys, One More Chance morphed into one. The fight scenes in the beginning are reminiscent of the Hows of Us since with KB and DP even the crying in the rain scene is a complete remake, it's laughable.

I'm sorry but Julia cannot act to save her acting career. She needs to attend acting workshops instead of banking simply on her face and surname to have a career. Her acting is flat, inconsistent, and just lacking.

Some of the love scenes are unnecessary, we get it they're doing it, you dont have to add it in the story line every so often. Julia's character development or lack thereof was a disappointment. Zy cheats on her fiance twice and as they say, if they cheat with you they will cheat with you, so why are we advocating cheating? Why should we root for a cheater?

Im only giving 2 stars for Joshua's acting, I think given better projects he will become one of the more bankable actors in the Philippines. Having said this tho, he still has a lot to improve on -he has acting nuances that I think he gets (copies) from actors like Daniel Padilla or John Lloyd Cruz, it's really annoying. But between the two of the main leads his acting was way better.

I had high hopes for this movie knowing this earned millions in the box office and was trending for a while. Honestly, this is the type of movies people praise now? We've seen better! This was obviously a fan service for Joshua Julia fans. If you're not a fan like I'm not, this is a waste of time. You can skip.

The story is generic, you'll instantly think of "Starting Over Again", "The Hows of Us", and "One More Chance" merged into one film with relevant formulas. There were lots of unnecessary scenes that didn't add up to the wholeness of the film and there are impactful scenes that were executed too sudden that lost its value in the story like Juancho's crying/begging moment in the rain. Characters were also not utilized like Bok being a supposed-to-be supporting actor, Sir JP which could have been the source of love wisdom for Juancho's fragile feelings for Zy instead of Papa Jun (which was totally random) and characters weren't properly established like Lei and Aiah. You'll even question how did the characters suddenly appear in the story. The cinematography was also odd, and the establishing shots in some sequences were off. Thanks to JoshLia for saving the movie though, their acting skills are really superb.
