"Beyond a love story."

KATHNIEL. KATHNIEL. KATH.NIEL. 
I just love them so much. They were like the loveteam of my life. Literally. Who here didn't even watch SDTG?! Well, you missed a great film. 




THE REVIEW
Love is all a matter of timing. At least, that’s what She’s Dating the Gangster wants us to believe. 

“She’s Dating the Gangster” portrays a great love story tested by time.

The story of the film evolves with the main characters past love affair which did not attain any closure as an unfortunate case of “bad timing.” To give their love story a happy ending before they run out of time, their new generation tried to reunite them.

Their epic love story was retold as Kenneth (son of Kenji) and Kelay (niece of Athena), still portrayed by Padilla and Bernardo, recalled the love story of Kenji and Athena.

The movie also tells the story of how love changes a person to become better. It teaches viewers the lesson of how important forgiveness.

Without giving too much away, Kenji and Athena make the noble, arguably harder, decision. But while there is no mistaking the sacrifice of both Kenji and Athena, there is also an alarming sense of disappointment to their love story. They are each other’s great love, Kelay so proudly proclaims to Kenneth. But how can any love be great when it’s not held on and fought for with every fiber of your being and with any bone in your body?

That love isn’t great. That love is an excuse.

I thought love was the most powerful thing. If there’s such force that is greater than love it is time. Timing is a bitch.

- Kenji, Richard Gomez
