Quezon Movie Review

Image
  So today,    I had the rare opportunity to watch a very important Filipino Movie about Manuel L. Quezon for which this City where I live is named after. Off the bat, I have to say I already liked the movie even before I went inside the theater. After all, it's not everyday that you get to see Filipino movies invested deeply into their own psyche as Filipinos. And what timing it has, with all the political ruckus we're currently having! Filipinos undoubtedly love their "politics"! But once you talk about "psyche", there surely will be some disputes along the way with the first one being Quezon's own grandson Ricky Avanceña NOT liking the biopic at all! In a heated exchange with its Director Jerrold Tarog and leading man Jericho Rosales, he called the movie "a satire and a joke" because they portrayed his grandfather as a caricature of his real person. I for one appreciated the movie...for its historical references and artistic approach. At t...

Philippines Today, January 20, 2025

As I peer outside my hotel window in the heart of Quezon City, I see a haze of the sprawling city located at the corner of the main thoroughfare EDSA and North Avenue. It is 7:43 am. An ice storage facility is burning to the left of my picture window. It’s a large effing cloud of black smoke.  It serves both as a reminder of what I’m up against today and what has transpired yesterday and the night before to bring about this covered-up arson from the same people protecting the so-called sitting government which is by now a sitting lame duck because of its record of ineffectivity, blatant corruption and outward policy of trying to protect only its family, or tribe as they call it…the tribe of the Kankanaey of North Eastern La Union and South Eastern Ilocos Sur.  Ang Bagong Pilipinas, their newest platform for National Progress shown on its government-owned TV Station PTV 4 is nothing but a program to alleviate not the lowliest and downtrodden, the ones left behind by progress an...

Magpapakamatay si Vic Sotto

Now Showing pa ang MMFF pelikula na The Kingdom. Ang ama at hari ng kaharian na ito ay walang iba kung hindi ang kilalang komedyante na si Vic Sotto. Siya ang supremo ng Bagong Pilipinas.  Ang kaniyang ari ang tanging yaman ng kanyang kaharian. Lahat ng anak nito ay  kayamanan din niya. Sa mga reviews na lumabas, para sa isang komediante, napagaling ng kaniyang performance bilang isang serious actor. Walang katarungan sa Pilipinas at lahat ng batas para sa mga ordinaryong mamamayan ay hindi naman napapasatupad. Mga pamilya lang ang nagpapalakad ng kanilang sariling pamilya na para sa kanila ang tunay na tulong nila sa bayan. Kung siya ang padre de pamilya at hari ng kanyang kaharian, magpapakamatay siya alang-alang sa ikabubuhay at ika-lalago pa ng kaniyang kayamanan. Gawin mo para sa iyong mga anak, ang nalalabing pag-asa ng bayan.
