QUEZON (2025) ReviewDirected by Jerrold Tarog The film is like its titular role’s personalities; you can’t pinpoint one that can describe it as a whole. Quezon, played wonderfully by Jericho Rosales, takes you on his journey as a politician in an entertaining way that feels as if he is multitasking as the writer, director, and …

The bigness of the film covers a lot of themes, but what stood out to me is its appreciation to classic Pinoy fantasy action films. ‘Child No. 82’ is a love letter to a genre that most adults today have fond memories of.
HABANG NILALAMON NG HYDRA ANG KASAYSAYAN (2025) ReviewDirected by Dustin Celestino The film might be fictional, or as they claim, but the characters, conversations, and situations all feel real. It’s as if it was my story, I am one of the characters in the film. That’s the biggest takeaway from the film, this isn’t just …

The film goes beyond going after the person you love. Bela and JC’s performances are the strength of the film. You’ll laugh and cry with them. It isn’t about romance anymore. It’s about healing, catharsis and loving yourself.
