Wild Little Love

It was surprisingly really good. The acting was on point for Andrea and Seth, the storyline was amazing. It's a must watch

No Philippine local teen film has caught my attention lately than that of Benedict Mique's Wild Little Love. The first movie team up of Seth Fedelin and Andrea Brillantes.

The location was picked for a reason, to make the movie relatable, and this objective was well achieved! Despite of an over-used "map" it took an astonishing new turn.

The love story of Jake and Sam, was shortly depicted but was clear and evident on their scenes together, their conversations will give you "butterflies" but at the same time, touching and mature, it makes Seth and Andrea's love team skipped that "tweetums stage" and it gives the film so much uniqueness and character. Their performances were very good, Sam is misunderstood, but strong and determined all were shown by Andrea's portrayal. Jake was street smart, down to earth, but with a good attitude brought about by his Father, all evident in Seth's eyes. The supporting characters are also note worthy.

In the end, all were given resolutions and just the right scene that leaves you wanting and looking forward for more.

Well, it took a while before I gave in and watch this movie in iWantPH since the plot for me is so overused and most likely I will end up regretting to watch. I was right, typical story and nothing surprising. I felt this was somehow a spin-off of the KathNiel movie, "Crazy Beautiful You", very similar plot. The actors are good but it did not quite make up on how predicable the next scenes will be. It makes sense why this was rated low by movie enthusiasts and some did not bother at all.

The fans of the loveteam featured in the movie will surely watch and love the scenes though.

Watching the first 15 minutes of the film, I already know the plot. The storyline is not original and is a typical story that was done over and over again. There was nothing new about it. Very disappointed and I did not enjoy it. A waste of great talents such as Carmina Villaroel.

I honestly thought to skip watching this film because the plot is too common, however Director Benedict Mique has a reputation for making good films, and he did not disappoint. It was common but it was engaging and fun! I feel that the movie gave what it supposed to give... flutter feelings, relatable situations and drama. It works because the movie did not take any risk at all.
