Finally Found Someone

Ever since we first saw John Lloyd Cruz and Sarah Geronimo in A Very Special Love, we got hooked by the on-screen chemistry, their signature kilig moments, and the so-called sun dance that brightened ourselves out of our daily misery. Then came You Changed My Life and it was even gooder. After that, It Takes a Man and a Woman. Now, for 2017, John Lloyd and Sarah are back in a very original love story directed by Theodore Boborol which promises to deliver some more like they did back in their previous two films.

Finally Found Someone

From Star Cinema and VIVA films, Finally Found Someone brings back John Lloyd Cruz and Sarah Geronimo in an all-original, yet, hugot-laden romcom that promises to feel like the films we are familiar with while stirring up some joy and sadness in a perfect chemistry you'd expect for a romcom like this. Sarah plays the role of Aprilyn, whose once-in-a-lifetime moment has been unexpectedly shattered when her groom disappeared at the day of the wedding, while John Lloyd plays the role of Raffy, a PR agent hired by the groom's father to help her move on. This film also stars Enchong Dee, Joey Marquez, Yayo Aguila, Dennis Padilla, and many more.

Unlike past films with John Lloyd and Sarah on it, this film is way different than the films mentioned because while the storyline is almost as original as the hugot-laden films that can ripple your heart like a tropical monsoon on a sunny day. Sure, you can expect lots and lots of hugot on this film but seeing them on-screen not only stirs up some feelings but also the nostalgia we reminisce back when you first saw them during your high school years and then you talked about them with your friends at school. When you think about it, it's almost like where the years go by and makes us a bit sad but flattering.

It maybe disappointing to talk about it at first but for nostalgia's sake, this film still shows brighten ourselves out of our daily misery just like the others, and Finally Found Someone takes the slice of cake.

My rating: 3.6 out of 5.
