I think the Gen Z&#x27;s and millennials nowadays can relate dito sa movie na ito.&quot;Barkada movies are a familiar offering to Pinoy moviegoers - may it be in comedy, horror or romance. But Monasterio believes that their own movie will stand out from past films in the genre for one reason.&quot;Siguro ang difference ng &#x27;G! LU&#x27; sa lahat ng yun, we&#x27;re really friends. Not just friends, we&#x27;re really close. So, most of our lines here parang hindi na namin sinusunod, adlibs na lang. This movie reflects how Gen Z&#x27;s are,&quot; Monasterio said.With the familiar view of San Juan La Union beach as the movie&#x27;s backdrop, all six actors had to show off their chiseled beach bodies.&quot;During the film, nagwo-workout kami together in the morning. We do a five-kilometer run, then we lift weights after. I think it was a balanced-healthy lifestyle&quot; said Pineda.&quot;G! LU&quot; will be in cinemas April 24.
