There's A Catch

I didn't have high hopes going into "Catch Me...I'm In Love" (um, what exactly does this phrase mean?) because I am not really a Sarah Geronimo fan. Even though I enjoyed her two earlier movies, I don't enjoy anything else she does. I find her a middling singer with no originality, for example. But hey, since I have no life and nothing else planned on a Saturday night and some people asked me to go see this movie with them, I said what the hell. So, I enjoyed myself watching the movie, and now about half an hour after watching, I have almost forgotten about it. Sarah Geronimo has fans, for sure: the movie theater was jampacked. But she has been doing the exact same role for the third time now that I suspect even her most devoted fans have started to tire of it. She is effective enough, thanks to the magic of movies. Gerald Anderson I have always found to be a sensitive actor, and in here he has a role that he can do with half his eyes closed.  Sadly, he and Sarah have the chemistry of a wet noodle. They get by their own charisma but you never ever believe that they are together. And it is sad that someone like Christopher de Leon has such a thankless role. And just as an observation: why do all these actresses wear foundation that is three shades lighter than their normal skin tones? It is distracting me to pieces. I guess this shows that not much else goes on in the movie. And Garry Marshall should really sue because a scene from "Pretty Woman" is blatantly stolen by the makers of this movie.
