It Takes a Man and a Woman is a 2013 Filipino romantic comedy film directed by Cathy Garcia-Molina and written by Carmi Raymundo.

[7] John Lloyd Cruz and Sarah Geronimo reprise their roles as Miggy Montenegro and Laida Magtalas respectively.

Released in the Philippines on March 30, 2013, It Takes a Man and a Woman was a major commercial success.

Two years later, Miggy, having lost the trust of board members after failing the aircraft business, seeks Laida's help.

After a disagreement over a project, Zoila and friends suggest a transformation theme for Laida, which Miggy supports.

In a board meeting, MET decides against publishing their magazine in the Philippines but agrees to a partnership with Flippage, on the condition that Laida returns to New York.

The theme song of the film is of the same title, It Takes a Man and a Woman, which was originally recorded by American singer Teri DeSario from her first album Pleasure Train.

Sarah Geronimo performed the vocals of the song and included it in her tenth studio album Expressions (2013).

[9][14][15] The second-week run showed a notable margin as it sold 65.2% higher than its debut week.

[16] The film played for seven weeks in domestic theaters and had a total box-office gross of PHP 405M.

[19][20][21] Aaron Hillis of the Village Voice wrote: "The final leg of director Cathy Garcia-Molina's exceptionally broad, partly English-dubbed cockles-warmer of a trilogy outright apes Hollywood rom-com formulas with a personality so affably lobotomized it wouldn't dare frighten delicate tastes".

[22] Philbert Ortiz Dy gave the film 3 out of 5 stars, saying, "There are plenty of sweet moments to be found in It Takes A Man and A Woman, but there’s a lot of bloat to get through[...] It might have done the film good to just take a more subdued approach, trusting in the talents of the two leads to provide the mainstream appeal.

[23] Likewise, Nestor Torre of the Philippine Daily Inquirer wrote: "To be sure, the film wins thematic points with its emphasis on the importance of forgiveness, of really moving on—so, when the constantly bickering ex-lovers finally face up to their hurts and/or guilt, the heretofore sluggish and unfocused drama finally hits viewers where they live, hurt and love.
