A romance-comedy movie by Antoinette Jadaone of the famed That Thing Called Tadhana, this movie will surely give you a lot relationship reminisces and familiarity as it is easily appreciated for its light-hearted tones and wonderful story. And since That Thing Called Tadhana has been famous because of quotable love lines, expect You’re My Boss to do the same. But the difference is that You’re My Boss tackles the issue of career over love life that uses the corporate extensively to illustrate the theme it wants to deliver. The story may not be an amazing as other romance Filipino movie but it surely not a disastrous or mediocre one. The use of modern social web application within the movie gives it a familiarity to its modern audiences. And I’m sure a lot of us can relate this – Instagram, Instant messaging, Facebook. Plus this movie is also a travel movie which is becoming a typical trend nowadays in rom-com flicks as it heavily promotes Batanes as a travel destination to visit by halfway of the movie. Batanes is truly a stunning destination and it was used wisely as great backdrop for the movie scenes. Toni Gonzaga and Coco Martin tandem seems forced and less chemistry between the two as lovers but they surely deliver the best performance needed for their act. Their tandem may seem less sugary sweet but their act was superb and very effective when it comes to comedic scene. You’re My Boss may used the issue of a tried-and-tested romance movie formula of how to move on from past love but it appropriately delivers it effectively. And the end of the film, don’t be surprised if you find yourself wanting to book the cheapest flight to Batanes right away!
