This Time I’ll
Be Sweeter tackles the love-hate relationship of Erica (Forteza) and Tristan
(Chan) from way back in college up until they are professionals, but it seems
that their love isn’t meant to be as Erica keeps on falling for Tristan at the
wrong time as every time that they will meet and start to rekindle the past
series of unfortunate events happened to both of them. But like what they
always say will love be sweeter this time?
The story
of the movie doesn’t have anything spectacular, it is a common love story with
that has several twists and turns to complicate things up and well it was good
as I felt that the movie was a roller coaster ride that made me experience
different emotions while watching it.
What I didn’t
like about the movie is that there are lots of unnecessary scenes that was
inserted that made the story/movie draggy at times, I won’t say any particular
scenes coz it might be a spoiler for those who will be watching it. There are
also small details that missed and it affected the continuity of the story. But
overall the story was okay.
When it
comes to acting everyone in the cast delivered an astounding performance,
especially Barbie and Ken. I must admit I am not a fan of Barbie, but well her
acting prowess made me an instant fan she delivered and owned the character as
if it was really her.
Ken Chan on
the other hand ever since Destiny Rose I was already a fan and boy this movie
is one of his best performance, his break out scenes in the movie were really
good.
I would
also like to praise Akihiro Blanco and Jai Piazon for providing a good support
for the main characters, they were never left in their scenes and they were
really remarkable.
All in all
the movie was good, but it could’ve been better since I think this movie was
more focused on the acting side and not on the story. Still it is worthy of
your money specially if you are a fan of the actors.
