Plot

Produced in the same year as Bagets, Bagets 2 is set in the immediate summer after the events of the first movie, and deals with more of the guys’ misadventures as they prepare for college. The film mostly deals with their participation in an arts workshop and inter-personal relationships with three new characters – Wally, Gilbert’s cousin and a young man forced by his mother to become a priest; Mikee, a TV director’s son looking for his big break, and Ponce, an auto expert-cum-dancer. Also included in the mix is Ruth, Tonton & Toffee’s balikbayan cousin.

Cast

Most of the cast from the original movie returned, including the actors who played the lead characters’ parents. However, Aga Muhlach (Adie) and Jobelle Salvador (Melissa) did not reprise their roles. According to the Bagets DVD feature “Flashback: The BAGETS Reunion,” Muhlach’s career was already taking off at the time. Salvador’s absence has not been explained. As a result, their circumstances were written in the story – Adie flew off to the United States at the start of the movie, while Melissa went to Davao to join her father.
