Bardlerx Strictly average movie

Adeel Hail Unshakable, witty and deeply felt, the film will be paying emotional dividends for a long, long time.

Asad Almond A clunky actioner with a handful of cool moments.

Guillelmina The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

raymund salao The film had impressive special effects, rendered by computer graphics. It also had an array of beautiful costumes. Except for the manananggal (half-bodied creature) who looked silly. The sound effects were also magnificent, and magnified the effect of suspenseful moments in the film. Jaime Fabregas did a good performance as some kind of researcher who was coerced by evil forces to do their bidding. And Mylene Dizon was a convincing manananggal, that you would definitely get shivers being with her with the way she looked and acted. It was rather smart of them to make the manananggal be a longganisa maker at the same time, so as to play with the grisly effect of her role. Unfortunately, that's the least good I can say about this film.The story is lame and has obvious resemblances to The Mummy Returns. To make it worse, the story as to the what, when, why of the villain character is never revealed. It never even attempts to break the stereotypes. It was a moronic story which never made much sense. Who was that corpse that the researcher was trying to resurrect? Why was she so angry? When resurrected, what did she intend to do? Why was Maria Makiling there all of a sudden? Who was the father of the central character? Why is it that the manananggal was also working for the main villain? Was she really collecting hearts for the main villain, or just having her nightly appetite? The characters had no dimension. The film was a virtual idiotic.Bong Revilla Jr. could also use some basic acting workshop. The dubbing was obvious. The sequencing also bad. The sudden appearance of two cruel fellows hurting a leper in some forest on an evening never made sense. Bong Revilla himself is a major stain in the film. Why such a bad actor take on three roles? He plays the (butod) hero in a roman armor, the old janitor, and the leper who was rescued by the main character. I remember him preaching that piracy damages the film industry by depriving actors and actresses with jobs. But on this film he unfairly takes on two extra roles, which could have been jobs for two other people.

tayag Ang Agimat Anting Anting Ni LoloZERO stars Grade: FI have watched a lot of movies but I haven't seen anything this bad since Jean Claude Van Damme's Knock Off. But Knock Off is a four-star masterpiece compared to this piece of dreck. To make a movie, you first need a credible story, but this movie jumps around in so many places that I wouldn't even call it credible. The acting in this movie was so bad, I laughed during the parts that were supposed to be dramatic. As for the special effects, they were downright horrible, HORRIBLE!!!! I know Filipino films don't have the same budget as Hollywood films but Spirit Warriors II: The Shortcut looked just as good as a Hollywood film (and that was a Filipino film). Most of the costumes looked like costumes you would buy at the department store and the fight sequences were just so stupid I cringed in my seat. If this is the first Filipino movie ever in Dolby Digital 5.1, then why did the sound go off for ten minutes!? Didn't they have enough money to put sound in a crucial part of the film? One more thing, three Revillas don't make a good film, they make a HORRIBLE one. All the movies I have seen look like there was some effort put into it, this film though, was a complete and total failure.
