CGiii Comment
Most Filipino films have the same trademarks...pretty boys, rent boys, poor boys...badly acted, badly written, badly directed...
So, when a new Filipino director releases a film there is a sharp intake of breath...well, don't hold your breath...for this is just like all the others.
It's time to change that worn out record - surely, there is a thing called Filipino originality!?!
