  Love it or hate it When Migs Villasis is involved, you know you're not gonna get your ordinary feelgood BL-series or movie. That's what many people (like myself) love him for, and that's why some people hate him. And when the title is 'Love while you can' you'll guess the final scene won't be a passionate kiss. So I was prepared, I thought. But I wasn't expecting this short film of about 35 minutes would hit me as hard as it did. The plot covers five days, from River (Migs Villasis) and Cloud's (Kimpoy Feliciano) first to their fifth anniversary. They quarrel through the first four and decide to separate the day before the fifth, the main (but not the only) reason being that River wants to make their relationship public while Cloud doesn't. River asks Cloud to celebrate their fifth anniversary together, spending a nice day without quarreling for once, before they finally part ways. They do spend a dream of a beautiful day together, at the end of which Cloud is finally ready to come out publicly. He dies the same night in a car accident, although a letter he leaves for River indicates that it wasn't an accident. There are only three characters in this movie: River, Cloud, and River's best friend (Mark Wei), the latter doing his best to support River and Cloud's relationship, so there is nothing to distract viewers from the story of the main couple. All the three actors are great, absolutely on point, never overacting. Another production company may have been tempted to show more scenes of Migs' attractive body and tattoos (which one may have expected after watching the trailer), but this one doesn't, and that's good, because that's just not the point here. The script is very good, appropriate for a short film that focuses on the relationship of the leads whose oposing characters are depicted in short sketches but still are completely credible and understandable. Cinematography is also better than a lot of Pinoy series. I didn't like part of the OST, but that's a matter of taste. This is a great little movie, but you should be warned not to watch it before you go to bed. You may not find sleep anytime soon. It will make you think - about time, about missed opportunities, about the way you treat your partner. Like always, when Migs Villasis is involved, you will love it or you will hate it. I love it.
