Which one are you watching on Valentine's Day?
(SPOT.ph) Moonlit walks and candlelight dinners not doing anything for you anymore? If you really want to feel sparks tingling down your spine this Valentine's Day, we know one foolproof method. It may seem corny, and it’s definitely cheesy, but it’s tried and tested, 100-percent effective. Hankies out, popcorn ready, we’re spreading the kilig this month with our top 10 Filipino rom-coms. By the way, if you're looking for some Nida-and-Nestor, Guy-and-Pip action or even some Sheryl and Romnick tear-jearkers, sorry, we narrowed it down to just our fave flicks in the last 20 years.
10. Catch Me... I'm in Love (2011)
Director: Mae Cruz
Starring: Sarah Geronimo, Gerald Anderson
Cheese line: "Ang love kasi para sa inyo ay parang status lang sa Facebook, madaling palitan."
A kid from an influential family falls for someone with a so-so background? We've seen that story only about a thousand times. So unfortunately, despite raking in over a hundred million in the box office last year, we had to relegate this Sarah Geronimo-Gerald Anderson flick to the 10th spot.
First Son Erick (Anderson) is as rebellious as could be. In hopes of straightening him out, the president (Christopher de Leon) employs the help of social worker Roan (Geronimo) to take him on a social immersion to deflate his head a bit. We all know what happens next: They fall in love despite the odds. Cliché? Definitely. But hey, it works. We still found ourselves gasping, squealing, sobbing, and giggling.
