Movie No. 80 (2017): THE ESCORT

The Escort (2016)
Director: Enzo Williams
Cast: Derek Ramsay, Lovi Poe, Christopher De Leon, Jean Garcia
In Tagalog

Saw this movie one Sunday on TV (Kapamilya Blockbusters).

The movie appears like it wants to be a memorable, if not great, love story. But, it fails because the premise is (again) recycled. The conflict and resolution are predictable and poorly executed. While I can consider the performances, especially the two supports, commendable, the characters, especially the two leads, are poorly written. I never believe in the actions of Lovie Poe's characters. Derek Ramsay's character is vapid. And that ending is so uninspired and cringe-worthy.

Rating: 1.0/4.0
