Tween Academy Of 2012 Movie

Tween Academy Of 2012 Movie

The story revolves around 3 best of friends. Kara (Barbie Forteza), the cosplayer and online retailer of collectible toys among the 3. She’s naturally resourceful, she uses her techie skills to help her mom make ends meet for their family. George (Bea Binene) the boyish friend of Enzo and Kara. Caught up in the “bestfriend syndrome”, George tries to hide her feelings for her best friend enemy and instead, helps him get closer to Chloe. and Elmo Magalona is Enzo, the Mr. Fix-It. Perceived as an introvert, he would rather spend time with his gadgets or his two best friends Kara and George. He then find himself in love with his teacher. Conflicts will rise as romance bloom between some of the Tweens. Tween Academy Class of 2012 is said to mirror the lives of today’s generation of teenagers.


There seems to be great releases of Filipino films every month despite tough competition with Hollywood movies. I hope GMA’s August movie offering won’t fall under the list of the worst though. I somehow believe this teenage flick will do great. In fact, fan-based, I feel Tween Hearts the Movie will do bigtime in the box office especially in Metro Manila.
