It's Official: "UnOfficially Yours" is a box-offic hit!

Feb. 17, 2012 - PRLog -- “Ecstatic!” that’s how Star Cinema insiders describe the vibe inside their office the past couple of days. “The feeling is beyond happy! Ang saya-saya naming lahat dahil hindi lang malakas kundi ang lakas-lakas ng Unofficially Yours sa box-office since it opened last February 15 in the Philippines! Star Cinema, the lead cast John Lloyd Cruz and Angel Locsin and the box-office director, Cathy Garcia-Molina did it again! And how!

“Unofficially Yours” is indeed raking it in at the box-office in the Philippines grossing a whopping 18.5M just for its opening day! Naka-jackpot nga talaga ang official Valentine date movie ng taon. Unbelievably long ang pila ng mga gustong manood ng pelikula sa lahat ng sinehan na pinalalabas ito! Moviegoers waited happily to see the first big-screen team-up of John Lloyd and Angel. They are also extremely excited to see kung ano nga ba ang sinasabing daring theme at new brand of romantic-comedy ng nasabing pelikula. Marami nga ang naka-relate sa story, characters at message ng movie. Kaya ang resulta, nag-uumapaw sa pagkapuno ang takilya!

And not only that, but Unofficially Yours is guaranteed to be worth seeing! In fact, it’s a must-see, what with the Cinema Evaluation Board giving it a Rated B dahil sa ganda ng pagkakagawa at kuwento nito. Masasabi talagang walang pangit na pelikula si Direk Cathy! From all her past movies, she never disappointed all of us dahil sa husay n’yang mag-direct.

So sabi nga, even if you’re single, in a relationship (whether official or unofficial), bagets, yuppie or just a good old fan of love stories eh puwedeng-puwede mo talagang ayain ang kapamilya mo, kaibigan mo, significant other mo, katrabaho mo or barkada mo to watch Unofficially Yours! Don’t be left behind. Nood na ng official at certified box-office hit movie this love season!

U.S. Premiere
TFC, the trailblazer in quality entertainment that reaches out to Filipinos around the world, is set to bring another memorable movie experience with Unofficially Yours.  
Produced by ABS-CBN Corporation subsidiary Star Cinema, the movie first premiered in Manila, fittingly a day after Valentine’s Day.  TFC hopes to duplicate the success on February 24, Friday at the Alex Theatre in Glendale, CA.  Showtimes are at 1 p.m. and 7 p.m.

Unofficially Yours, as its title connotes, breaks norms by highlighting a relationship without the benefit of commitment – a theme not commonly tackled in Philippine cinema.  In a much-awaited reunion, former Imortal (the famed TFC teleserye) leads John Lloyd Cruz star as Mackie Galvez, a straight-laced dentist who believes in commitment and Angel Locsin as Princess Medina, a liberated lifestyle reporter who puts no labels to her relationships.  Together they share a one-stand stand that lead into another then another and later face the pressure of "officially" getting into a relationship.

John Lloyd along with Angel Locsin will iget the chance to see the reaction of their fans in the U.S. as they are set to grace the premiere in California.
