Rewind

Idea is not unique. They just copied the plot of "If Only" starring Jennifer Love Hewitt and Paul Nicholls Paul Nicholls that was showed in theaters in 2004. People are fooled that this film was amazing because they thought it was an original Idea but the real thing is this is just a copy of an existing film. They just added some scenes to the movie maybe to avoid copyright claims from the producers of "If Only". Just a rip off. Filipino movies need to explore new ideas so they can head to head with foreign films. This movie bags a lot of money just by copying the ideas of an already existing film.

Storyline 5/10 Acting 6/10 The title is a dead giveaway. Even a child can guess what happens next. There's nothing special about this film or i just don't see it. The acting is awful especially the kid who played Austin. Im sure there are other talented child actors out there and yet there he goes practically reading his lines with an emotionless face. There were probably 5 scenes and they just repeated it. Same place, same clothes, different lines. The plot is too simple-- nothing intriguing, curious, or interesting about it. The timeline is also too short for someone to realize something profound. The fact that an hour before his death, john was still acting immature only proves how he learned nothing. Well duh-- how will someone change his entire personality overnight? How dull. Quite disappointing since i thought i was in for a good drama.

I am very amazed by the acting it almost mde me cry, but aside that the other aspects lacks the story is not original it's like a copy of other stories, the cinematography is very bad I noticed that the lighting is not set to the mood, pretty overated I might say, the pacing I will say very confusing. Looking at the goodside though The acting is very good + the song is just the "try not to cry combo". It hat a lot of good jokes,i liked the way they put a bit of comedy in a dramatic movie. In conclusion this movie did not perform well in many aspects but it has a nice delivery of the story even if it's not original,the cinematography really ruins the mood of the scene sometimes.now I know the reason that this movie didn't get any awards from MMFF. But i can say it's good, and relatable I will recommend it.
