Conclusion:

The situation of the story is not as complicated as it seems to be but I still manage to understand the story. The love team of Sharon Cuneta and Miguel Rodriguez has chemistry. As we all know, the late Miguel Rodriguez is a well known matinée idol during the 80’s. This story is created out of fantasy of a love story as we obviously see it. I like this movie very much. Aside from the performance of the actors, I also like the setting and the plot of the screenplay.
