The original series was good enough to watch twice, but only because JC Alcantara (as Mico Ramos) stepped up to sell his part so well. Tony Labrusca (in the first billed role as Xavier) seemed ill at ease with the whole affair. In this sequel, Tony finally seems comfortable in the role and the chemistry between the two leads is sensational. I have to give a special mention to Miguel Almendras (June Sandico) who has a small but featured role n both films. He takes on the difficult role of "the voice of reason" and handles it like a pro. The literature camp is a refreshing new storyline. The final scene delivers on what we've been waiting for, though its not clear why it took so long. The only minor complaint I have is the gay love triangle gets introduced quite late in the story and I think it would have been more interesting to have a few more scenes of Xavier's jealousy emerge in contrast to Mico's jealousy of Crystal (Xavier's girlfriend). Overall, it hits all the right notes.
