MOVIES2WATCH: JUST ONE SUMMER opens on AUGUST 15, 2012

I know I'm way past for teeny-weeny movies but there's this one movie I'm looking forward to watch! Yes! I know a lot people are just as excited as I am (di'ba Weng)!

I have met and heard Julie Ann San Jose sing in an event at Tomas Morato, wherein she was also a judge. At that event she sung "SUPER BASS' by Nicki Minaj, and I must say she sing the song much better than Nicki Minaj.

After that I was looking forward seeing her perform every Sunday at Party Pilipinas and the admiration lives on till I got to meet her during the Pictorial shoot for her first movie with Elmo Magalona, "Just One Summer".

Just One Summer is a movie about a story of two people finding each other and finding their own selves in one summer.

Daniel Cuaresma, Jr  (played by Elmo Magalona) is a rich boy fresh from highschool. Dahil only son ng isang doktorang may-ari ng isang ospital sa Maynila, pangarap din niyang maging doktor. And he is close to reaching this dream, dahil natanggap siya sa isang med school abroad for college. Handa na ang lahat—his passport, visa, pati tutuluyan sa states. Isa na lang ang problema—ang parental consent. Wala pa kasing pirma ang daddy niya. His dad has only one condition for Daniel before he signs – he wants his son to spend summer with him. Simple lang kung tutuusin. But not for Daniel. He hates his dad. He has hated him eversince he left their family and went back to the province to take care of his farm.  Kaya naman spending time with his dad, during his last summer in the country, is the last thing on his mind. Pero wala siyang magawa. Kailangan niya ang pirma ng ama.

Si Beto naman, ang probinsyanang kababata ni Nyel, ay magka-college na rin. Unlike Nyel, her family doesn’t have all the finances dahil hindi naman sila mayaman. Kaya naman tuwang-tuwa ang tatay niyang si Berting nang malamang magiging scholar ito sa college, dahil makakabawas ng malaki sa gastusin. Ang problema—hindi talaga natanggap sa scholarship si Beto. At hindi niya alam kung paano sasabihin sa ama, kaya naman maghahanap siya ng paraan para makapag-ipon ng pang-tuition on her own. Dahil dito, lalapit siya kay Sir Dan, Sr, para bigyan siya ng trabaho sa farm. Kahit anong trabaho, willing siya, dahil laki naman siya sa farm.

Pero magugulat na lang si Beto dahil ang ibibigay sa kanyang trabaho ni Sir Dan ay ang bantayan ang anak nitong si Nyel, Jr. habang nasa probinsya.  At first, matutuwa pa siya dahil long-time crush niya talaga ang kababatang ngayon lang ulit umuwi. Pero habang tumatagal, mahihirapan si Beto dahil masama ang ugali ni Nyel—not because he is really bad, but because he’s acting up, dahil nga galit siya sa ama. Mas ikakabwisit din ng lalaki na pinapabantayan pa siya kay Beto.  

Dahil sa constant clash nilang dalawa, pareho silang malalayo sa mga goals nila. Halos ayaw na ni Beto makasama si Nyel. Pero kailangan niya ang trabaho para magkaron ng pang-tuition. Si Nyel naman, dahil sa mga nagagawa kay Beto, ay mapapagalitan pa ni Sir Dan, kaya lalong mapapatagal ang pagpirma sa consent.

But somewhere along the way, magbabago ang lahat. Magkakasundo sina Beto at Nyel…Pero kung kelan naman sila magiging okay, lalabas ang ibang problema. Malalaman ni Berting ang tungkol sa pagsisinungaling ni Beto. Si Nyel naman, magkakaroon ng confrontation with his father, and he soon discovers marami pa siyang hindi alam tungkol sa paghihiwalay ng mga magulang niya.

With everything that’s going on, will this summer still have a happy ending? This is the story of…

a wounded, teenage boy forced to spend time with the father he so hates…

A father who wants to reconnect with a son who has shut him out of his life…

And a clueless, provincial lass who will make it all a bit easier simply by being inlove and by being loved by the boy…

Three changed lives…in just one summer.

Well, my decision? WILL WATCH IT! I'm sure many #JULIELMO fans will be happy see their idolks making good music together, and what more in a MOVIE.

Aside from the fans who will be happy for this upcoming movie, alot of teenagers like them will learn alot of lessons. Lessons on why we shouldn't keep secrets with our family....That we shouldn't keep grudges from our love ones. That isn't good to keep grudges from your family because at the end of it all ..your FAMILY  will always be there for you no matter what.

Guys get ready as the movie Just One Summer will be having its premier night on Monday Agust 13, 2012. But for those who cannot make it..there'll be lots of chances to watch it at your fave cinema near you as it open s on August 15, 2012!!!
