If only
This movie is at the top of my list. It made me cry from the beginning of the movie, at some parts in the middle and at the end. I know men say they love us and sometimes they are just too stupid to pay attention to the details and other things and they are busy doing other things that they do not show how they care for the girl they love and that's what Ian Wyndham realized after his girlfriend Samantha Andrews died. The following day, he was
given another chance to save her but he realized that the inevitable is coming as he tried to stop things from happening but end up happening no matter how hard he tried, instead he just tried to show her how much she meant to him. This 2004 romantic drama film just shows that it does not matter whether you have 5 minutes or 5 decades with the person just make sure that you express how they meant to you before it's too late.
A lot like Love
A story of two people who didn't realize what they really need after seven years. Sometimes we are just too preoccupied by work, hobby, other people to discover how we really feel for another person. Oliver Martin and Emily Friehl are two people who first met in a flight and joined the mile high club and Oliver gave his number. During the seven years, these two people would have encounters and when they are willing to give
their weird relationship a try, they discover that the other is settled. This movie is a reminder for my weird interaction with someone. Just like Oliver and Emily, we're not exactly lovers, we're not exactly friends, he's always busy with his career, I am most of the time with a different boyfriend. I don't exactly know if I love him, I know I care but that's just it. Anyway, I just love the tag line of this movie, there's nothing better than a great romance to ruin a perfectly good friendship. This movie teaches us that no matter how cool and comfortable you are with each other, no matter how attracted you are with each other, timing really does matter and of course the willingness of both parties to be in a relationship. At the end, if two people are meant to be together, love finds a way to bring them back together.
50 first dates
I fell in love with Adam Sandler in this movie. As a kid, I grew up loving Nicholas Cage and now as a twenty something grown woman, I adore Gerald Butler but as a teenager, I just like the antics of Adam Sandler. Henry Roth is one of those jerks that some unfortunate woman meet. The one who will just use you, sleep with you and leave you with lies. He is similar to the character of Barney in 'How I met your mother' until one day he met this girl, Lucy Whitmore and he fell in love with her unfortunately, she does not remember him. Talk about karma, right? You want girls to just forget you but they won't and here comes the girl that you care for and yet she will never remember you and yet he does all this crazy things just to be close to her. Seriously,
she is the perfect one night stand for a guy like Henry, he does not have to lie to him and he can leave and she won't remember, nobody gets hurt. He went to extremes such as acting dumb and cannot read the menu in the restaurant, he used his friend to beat him up, he even tapes record their first meeting and gives it to her everyday until basically, he makes her fall in love with him, the first thing in the morning, isn't that sweet? This 2004 romantic comedy is a little bit tragic at the middle part that I cried but it still has a good ending. Watch this with your boyfriend to remind you that making you fall in love with him is a daily process!
My Amnesia Girl
Not really a big fan of Filipino movies but I am so in love with John Lloyd Cruz especially that he reminded me of some guy that I went out with at one time so I agreed watching this with my sister and my then boyfriend. Anyway, many people think that this 2010 romantic comedy is a ripped off of 50 first dates, it has a different story, at first I thought so too but my curiosity with the teaser just made me watch this film. I am also a fan of Toni Gonzaga so watching this even if it's crappy would not make me feel bad for spending money watching this but it turns out to be great so I highly recommend this. Their cheezy lines made it more enjoyable to watch. Irene and Apollo were lovers but on the day of there wedding, Apollo decided to ran off. It has been three years and on the day of his friend's wedding, he was reminded of Irene and he found her in a
grocery store just to discover that she does not remember him because she had amnesia. Apparently, Irene really has no amnesia, it was just the first thing that came to her head. She never thought that they would see each other so it doesn't matter but then Apollo ended up searching for her and finding her and tried to win her back. This movie shows us that when you are in love with someone, it does not know time limits and you will do anything for love. My favorite line or scene in this film was when Toni and John Lloyd were praying in the church and Toni was thanking God because she was just asking for pandesal and yet He gave her hamburger with fries referring to John Lloyd.
Win a Date with Tad Hamilton
The 2004 romantic comedy film that shows that not only boys are making mistakes when it comes to love but also girls. Rosalee wins a date with movie star Tad Hamilton. She has a best friend, Pete, who has been in love with her for the longest time. At first, Rosalee is just like a way to show directors that Tad has cleaned up
his act and they should continue casting him but then he realized that he is starting to have real feelings for her. Of course, we all girls had this stupid things in our head where in a prince charming will come for us and just take us to somewhere fun and will never be sad again... and that's what Rosalee has in her head. Definitely she chose the movie star who tells her that he loves her over the best friend who has been there for her and has loved everything that she is and she isn't. She did not realize how she felt about Pete until she heard the 6 smiles of Rosalee speech. The story of the movie, sometimes we get sidetracked by flashy people with their looks and money, before we realize who really loves us.
Good Luck Chuck
The 2007 romantic comedy about Chuck. It was a curse to Chuck that whoever sleeps with him will marry the guy that asks them out after Chuck. At first, it doesn't really matter to Chuck, at least, girls just throw
themselves to him but it becomes a problem when he falls in love with Cam Wexler. This movie is funny and sweet and the defines love in another way, Love is when guy will not have sex with the hot girl that he really loves because he is scared of losing her to someone else.
Love Actually
Love is not just romantic love as shown in this 2003 romantic comedy film. Billy Mac and Joe shows the love between friends. Joe is Billy Mac's manager while Billy Mac is an aging rock star whose latest project is a Christmas variation of Love is all around. This is a story of different people showing their love and how they act because they are in love; a guy will hide his true feelings for the girl that he has fallen in love for because
for his love for his best friend, a Prime Minister will do everything in his power just for the girl, a boy would learn the drums so that he can perform with his first love and even ran to the airport just to get the first kiss, a sister would ignore her chances for the love of her life for her sick brother. Among the stories in this film, I like the story of Jaime and Aurelia. They lived in a cottage and they cannot understand each other because Jaime speaks English while Aurelia speaks Portuguese but you will see in the subtitles and how they interact with each other, that they have a connection and attraction and as Jaime follows Aurelia to her hometown so that he can propose to her. It was revealed that both has been trying to learn each other's language so that they can communicate.
Little Manhattan
“Love is about finding courage inside of you that you didn't even know was there.” that is the quote from the 2005 romantic comedy film about first love. You will always remember your first love no matter how many other loves comes next. This movie just melts my heart. I am amazed on how innocent and how cute love was defined in this movie. It is realistic and charming. This reminds us that love really does not have to be complicated and the most important thing is that you do your best to make sure that nothing is left unsaid because lovers come and go, sometimes it's just not meant to be but make sure that you have given your all to make that someone feel how you felt for them. Gabe and Rosemary Telesco are two 11-year old who live in
New York, they have known each other since kindergarten but it was in their karate class when Gabe noticed how pretty Rosemary is. He realized that girls are pretty and are pretty nice to be with. As he gets to know her and spends more time with her, he realized that he is falling for her. They are just 11 so do not expect to see a happy forever after ending.
I hope you will enjoy watching movies as much as I did! Ciao!
