A story that requires the audience to suspend belief. The widow Abie is quick to assume the worst when her husband goes MIA. The previously jealous mistress and business partner, Therese, is curiously absent from Roldan's life between the inappropriate memorial meeting and the happy news of Michael's recovery. Neither did Nurse Darwin exploit this period to make a move for his crush, Abbie. Later, Abbie said she was prepared to work with Michael to overcome his new penchant for strangling his partner during coitus, but she never gave her fiancé the opportunity to try alternative positions, e.g., cowboy or doggie, that would keep some distance between hands and neck. Apple Dy, comes across as a miniature Alexa Ocampo, but with inferior acting ability that hopefully will improve. In my opinion the best acting performance is by Bo Ivann Lo as Anne; I'd like to see more of her. Unsurprisingly, this movie is not as good as its 2001 namesake.
