The film was launched during the “Not for Everyone Gala”, the post-Valentine Gala of NDM PLUS at the Art Son Gala Hall in Quezon City, Philippines.

Set against the poetic backdrops of Tokyo’s neon glow and the serene stillness of rural Japan, this full-English, full-length international feature promises to redefine the romantic drama for a global audience when it premieres in the second quarter of 2026 exclusively on NDM PLUS.

At first glance, Hearts In Transit feels familiar: three people, one impossible choice, and emotions that refuse to stay contained. But me, being, I do not tell ordinary stories.  It is a heart-wrenching romantic drama about timing, identity, and the cost of loving someone when you’re still figuring yourself out.”

Why the REDMI Note 15 Pro 5G is Your Ultimate Valentine's Wingman

Going out on Valentine's Day is tough, especially when you're competing with the crowds–which is why your phone should be Titan Tough

Valentine's Day, especially in the Philippines, is usually a whirlwind of dinner reservations, perfectly timed surprises, and the pressure to capture that "one great photo" to remember the night. But let's be real: dates don't always go according to plan. Whether it's an unexpected downpour during a rooftop dinner or a clumsy moment with a wine glass, life happens.

That's why there's no better "wingman" on this special holiday than the REDMI Note 15 Pro 5G—it's more than just the smartphone you're booking your reservations with, it's also the Titan Tough companion that's built to survive the romance and the accidents that come with it.

A jewel thief, a broker, and a detective. Meet the lineup of characters in “Crime 101,” starring Chris Hemsworth, Halle Berry, and Mark Ruffalo

In PH cinemas Feb 18

Fates collide in the high stakes crime thriller Crime 101, starring Chris Hemsworth, Halle Berry, Mark Ruffalo. An elusive jewel thief prepares for the job of a lifetime, while a disillusioned insurance broker stands at the precipice of her career, and as they cross paths, a detective hot in pursuit gets closer and closer to unraveling who is behind all the high-profile jewel heists along the Southern California coast. Crime 101 is written, directed, and produced by Bart Layton, based on the hit novella of the same name by Don Winslow.

REVIEW: Wuthering Heights - Whirlwind of Passion and Deception

Based on the novel of Emily Brontë, Wuthering Heights has been adapted numerous times yet the story still resonates to the conflicts of love, passion, and torment. Now adapted with Margot Robbie as Catherine and Jacob Elordi as Heathcliff, which also features a soundtrack from Charlie XCX, brings the story with a new style that blends the old period with some modern elements. 

Magot Robbie's role as Catherine brings back her bold and seductive charm and paired with Jacob Elordi indeed made it feel like those passionate romance novels with descriptive sensual moments and also something similar to the 50 shades books. The cinematography shows a variety of lens of class, status, and values, paired with eerie yet effective score brought weight to the story.
