Best Break Up Line I have ever heard in a movie so far: “You are the Perfect Girl, just not the right one for me” Ouch.

Make no mistake of it, I LOVE this movie… the cinematography, the concept, the tandem and the outfits! LOVE Junkies in the Philippines should watch this movie because….

1. It’s NOT Asianovela-inspired
“For the First Time” is a much-needed break from all the nauseating Asianovela-type television shows that are being pushed by all the networks. Nauseating in the sense that there are so many… and so extensively drawn out. Richard Gutierrez has so far been paired with Angel Locsin and Heart Evangelista. Watching this movie told me exactly why his team ups with these petite ladies did not work. He isn’t a physical match to either of them.

2. KC and Richard’s on-screen chemistry ROCKS

They complement each other. Both can hold their own in terms of physique and personality. Evilwoobie.com rates this love team a 10… They are M.F.E.O. (made for each other) !!! Richard is the veteran and it shows. He gives the otherwise two-dimensional personality of his character life by showing believable “cockiness”, arrogance and emotional distance. His action-packed roles in the past are dim in comparison to his acting here.

KC’s acting. Are you ready for this?….. KC’s acting in For the First Time is less than par. However, we MUST watch how she tries. We can forgive her though, because she (as KC, not as her character, Sophia) is adorable, funny and sexy. Now if ONLY she translated all THAT in her dismally two-dimensional character. She is somewhat awkward as Sophia, and her tears are touching to people who only think of “Oh look ‘KC’ is crying!!!”. We expected the Megastar’s and Gabby Concepcion’s daughter to be acting school-trained and every bit as dazzling as her mom and her biological dad in their first movies.. but, not yet.

3. MUST’s

Before they even release “For the Second Time”, the sequel to this movie (and there will be for sure!) … KC must invest on her acting. Star Cinema must set a budget to BUY bobby pins for KC’s hair (which keeps on blocking her face in the movie) Richard could use an equally magnetic competitor (i.e. their love triangle-mate).
