“Seasons” is a film directed by Easy Ferrer, starring Lovi Poe, Carlo Aquino, and Sarah Edwards.
“Seasons” is a romantic comedy from the Philippines that, while falling into a genre known for its predictability, refuses to deviate from the genre’s rules or betray them, despite what the plot may suggest.
The story revolves around two friends, a boy and a girl, who, despite being just friends, seek romantic fulfillment elsewhere, knowing that it rarely ends well.
Especially in the romantic comedy genre.
About the Film
The romantic comedy genre is known for its classic elements and the expectations that viewers have of them. It’s not that they don’t want to break free from the mold, but a romantic comedy should never stray too far from it: a good romantic comedy should be special, but without going overboard, always charming, and above all, adhere to the established structure: a comedic first act, a development where comedy gives way to romance, a conflict near the end, and inevitably, a happy ending with the protagonists living happily ever after.
I must warn you: this romantic comedy does have a special touch and, within the genre, it doesn’t adhere to “all” of those norms.
In the areas where every romantic comedy must fall, “Seasons” manages to avoid them, distract from them, and offer us a different kind of romantic comedy that, even if only slightly, deviates from the typical formula and becomes, within the inevitable “always charming” tone, a bit unique.
It is a film for sensitive hearts, yes, one that constantly emphasizes emotions and the goodness of hearts. . all the things that movies targeting a specific audience know how to deliver.
It won’t disappoint because it is a well-produced film made with good taste and, of course, featuring two charming leads who will capture our hearts from the start.
Our Opinion
A romantic comedy that manages, even if only for a few moments, to break free from the classic and dull tropes of the genre and offer us a touch of exoticism that makes it special.
Plot
After a series of failed relationships, two best friends make a pact to take a risk and search for love again, but they may find it in each other.
