Ready.....set.....rewind

I enjoyed the movie much as I enjoyed Happy Together The Series -- it was sweet and entertaining but not fully satisfactory.

Pros:
-- The actors were much more comfortable, and did a very good job in the movie of making their characters relatable. (No doubt because they actually were relating to one another, instead of to a screen.....) JC is such a sweetie...... Tony came across very well as the more sensitive and loving version of Xavier.
-- The movie developed the stories of some of the subsidiary characters well. JunJun and Chrystal, in particular.
-- The setting in a nice resort made for visually attractive photography.

Cons:
-- I really felt like this was just the end of the Series, re-imagined. We rewound the tape, replayed it a bit differently, and didn't end up anyplace different.
-- Several story aspects were left hanging in strange ways. Tony came out to his parents ON THE PHONE? And after that nobody fleshed out the reaction of his father the wanna-be jock? And Mico was hit by a car???? What happened?

All in all, this is worth watching (especially if you're a fan of the two stars), but don't have high expectations. Maybe the franchise will continue and we'll get more character/story development.
