Hellen I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much
Vashirdfel Simply A Masterpiece
Mathilde the Guild Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.
Guillelmina The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.
ShadowRomeo1784 My Personal Rating 5.8/10 - I do agree that this film is overrated it is a average film but for filipino standards this is a good step up because most of our films produced on our country are trash. but if i compare this in other film. it's not really that great. i liked this film but i don't think it's rating right now is fair. 7.8? nope. don't be fooled by critics it's being overrated. other than that it's an watchable film, with some cheesy scene that you won't like. especially that ending scene that is so exaggerated. if you are interested on Heneral Luna's Story you can choose. watch this film or read his story instead. i guess if i'm you i would watch this film but i will just try to ignore the cheesy parts.
joedith_lego I never ever recall applauding after a movie - but to Heneral Luna, i did. It was worth the applause - not because of the story (only), not because of the actors/actresses (only), not because of the way the story unfolded (only), not because of the cinematography (only), not because of the 3D animation (only) and not because of every other element in the film (only). It was because all of those - and being very well put together. From beginning to end, the movie will capture your attention and keep you engaged. The manner in which the story was told - seamlessly weaving through the past and present was surprisingly not confusing. I am also pleased with the choice of actors who played the different characters. And then i learned that the extent of the digital work done - hats off. Looking forward to the next.
Brent Cruz Set in the war between Americans and Filipinos. The Americans are invading the Philippines until the Filipinos give up, this includes killing the lives of the innocent. The Philippine Government are conducting a plan while many want to negotiate for better profit. General Luna is there to stop the greed and focus and prioritize the state of the nation.General Antonio Luna is infamous, mad, unafraid, furious and above all cares for his family, fellow-soldiers and country men. He will stop at nothing until he accomplish his mission of giving freedom to his country. He disciplines and trains the soldiers into making them independent and not some slackers or cowards within the war. He removes all the corrupted he can find. Inspiration is key and that's what he wants to show to all his soldiers.In the end, the face of the real enemy is revealed. It's one of his own. Savagely killed by his own country-men. Showing No Mercy to a man who only wants what's better for the whole country.I love the exposure shown to what the message was. It had many symbolisms and morals one might enjoy learning. John Arcilla really turns into the character he's portraying, he even looks like him. The effects use was really brutal, the sound was pretty great to and the cinematography had very beautiful shots and lightning in some scenes. The comedy present was a nice addition to the film and making it more entertaining to watch. The direction by Jerrold Tarog shines on how careful the actors give their performances. The script is rich with very detailed and fun lines of entertainment.I will say that this film is not propaganda, it's not bragging of which country is better, it's does not promote blind nationalism. It's more on what's present and understandable with the value of claiming responsibility. It does not send you the message of "This film makes me shameful and filling me guilt you into liking it.". It's better if you understand your reflections.
Abs Rivera The notorious, bad-ass, and famous Gen. Antonio Luna was portrayed in the big screen that will make each Pilipino proud. This was one of the most outstanding performance for all of the actors involving in this film, well directed by Jerrold Tarog, and the cinematography and set pieces were jaw-dropping. The creativity and style in the part of the film where Gen. Luna closed his eyes while talking with his mother and reminisced the past days with their family and the past events that occurred in their lives and the people around them was astonishing.BOTTOM LINE: Are you tired of watching Pinoy Movies (mostly) with lazy writing and predictable plot that focuses majority in Romance, Comedy, Romance (did I say Romance twice?)? Here is the movie that we can all be proud to say, this is how the movie should be done and treated (with CREATIVITY, WELL THOUGHT, WELL DIRECTED).
