Mirror of society!

This movie gives me chills! I'm glad that it's longer than the first one. It's terrifying when you think that this is currently happening to our journalists :( What a cruel world we live in.

A true Matti gem

This astounded me and really, left me wondering why no one is talking about this. A 6 part miniseries that can be seen in HBO GO, it remastered the 2013 movie to 2 parts and continued the story line with Sisoy played by the great Jon Arcilla.

Some of the characters like Acosta ( Joey Marquez) and Senator ( Leo Martinez) were called back to render continuity to the story of hired killers.

I love the gradual awakenings of Sisoy and Roman as the story progressed , to explain their motives and realizations. Commendable also are the little details ( example Weng not being allowed to view the CCTV) that make the story telling almost true to life.

Completely satisfied with the ending as well. I hope more Filipinos get to see this.

This is my 100th review for Filipino films.

Nothing short of Anazing!

This is probably one of the best Filipino movies I've seen in decades. From acting, to the story, the production value, and overall presentation I totally salute the director for crafting this film.

Unfortunately, when I saw it on HBO Max, it was badly dubbed. The alternate audio comes with description for hearing impaired. I think the original audio give more impact to the actor's performance.

Perhaps I'll wait for the Blu-ray release and rewatch it. I highly recommend this film.
