Para Sa Hopeless Romantic Film Trailer Review
Para sa Hopeless Romantic uses three tried-and-tested formula for another successful Philippine romantic film: a soundtrack which is "Ikaw" by Yeng Constantino that target its loyal musical demographic, two of the "hottest" young romantic teenage on-screen couples (Nadine Lustre and James Reid x Julia Barretto and Inigo Pascual), and a story like "no other" from one of the more contemporary "best-selling" author (for the teenage-young adult market), Marcelo Santos III.
Star Cinema has been the leading producer of "quality" romantic films (to a fault) throughout the years and Para sa Hopeless Romantic with cooperation of another film producer giant Viva Films is definitely one of them. If something is not broken, why fix it right? As long big corporations produces new artist every millenia, there will always be a film for its younger generation and those who love everything that gives out the "kilig-factor". A variation of the story with different artists just like what Kim Chiu & Gerald Anderson, Regine Velasquez & Ariel Rivera, and even Nora Aunor and Tirso Cruz III did in the past. That their film's stories and pairings will disappear to obscurity only to be placed by another more contemporary version of it which is only (or has become) "normal" by mainstream Philippine movie standards.
