Un/Happy for You

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.

"Un/Happy for You" is a generic Feel Good Romance that's very predictable and formula driven. This film is a comeback movie of Joshua Garcia and Julia Barreto love team both did justice to their roles. Both is just ok on every level even the dramatic scenes. The theme song,"Paubaya" as sung by Moira is out of place and is far from its theme. The cinematography is just ok. The story and direction feels rushed but you get to enjoy the movie. But the ending is a stand out. I won't spoil it.

Overall, "Un/Happy for You" is just decent and pure escapists for a Filipino film. It feels like a Filipino movie I've seen before. But if you're a fan of JoshLia love team then you might like it as a whole.

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.

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.

Story is very dry. Too many moments of silence and empty scenes that were a waste of time. Filipino movies used to have such a good story, building characters and creating moments we can all relate to. The characters are unlovable and so tone deaf. Unfortunately the story did not live up to the amazing cast. Movie came off corny as well. The characters had way too many plot holes, and it was ultimately annoying to watch the protagonists have such a ditzy and clueless motivation to just set aside their values for something so desperate. The ending was also unsatisfying. This new age of filipino movies with this style in my opinion are lackluster. I'd pass on this one.
