Such a waste of potentially good materials and actors

The series has promising premise, important message, some handsome actors, and a director whose past work I was quite impressed with…it is really hard to understand how it ended up to be one of the most unauthentic, overwrought mess of a melodrama that I’ve ever seen. The script was so poorly written and the dialogues do not allow most of the actors express emotions of any depth or even seem consistent with their characters for them to seem real or make much sense.
The relationship between James and Ait was unconvincing at best,. Ait’s character and reaction to others changes from scene to scene like a bipolar person, and James character as written make it really hard for me as an audience to see why Ait would be so infatuated with him, let alone fall in love. He’s insensitive to Marcos’s interest in him and doesn’t even have anything to actually say to Ait during their fight except repeating literally 5 times “please just let me talk to you” it seems obviously the script writer could not think of anything for his character to say. Bas is supposedly the most sympathetic character but was underwritten and overacted in such an overwrought way that really did not do justice to the pain and suffering he supposedly was going through. The only character that really make sense and seem real is Marco.
Overall it is frustrating to watch and a major disappointment, a real missed opportunity.

Mario looking his best

The concept is fun, the story ultimately disappoints but if you are a Mario fan, then it’s still a pleasure to watch as he looks so good and lovable with all youthful innocence as the stumbling AI turned human especially for the first half of the movie… easily have you rooting for him and wanting him to succeed. The chemistry between the leads are good but actually fizzled after they got together…. Then the climatic moment was indeed a letdown, it kind of feel like the script writer left the job in a hurry and they decided to just wrap production … the potential of really engaging the audience to care and feel for their relationship was wasted by the lazy third half of the movie. However, despite all these, if you like Mario and wants to see him looking in his 20s again, then it is still a fun little eye candy romcom to spend your time when you want to relax.
