We might not be able to visit movie houses any time soo,n but we’re about to be spoiled with a whole lot of Filipino films on Netflix. From August to September, a number of Tagalog titles will be making their premiere on Netflix including Netflix Original Love the Way U Lie.

Fate lets them bump into each other once again forcing them to come to terms with their feelings. Aside from the heart-wrenching storyline of the two films, the amazing cinematography of Metro Manila’s familiar spots shouldn’t be missed.
