  • I thought he was going to be an inutile president at best, but he’s alright so far. Parang P-Noy days lang wherein you can generally ride out the term peacefully, save for a few hiccups. Duterte era lang talaga yung so bad you have your butt cheeks clenched every day. Of course andyan pa rin yung mga hihirit na gusto daw “isanitize” yung memories ng Marcoses (as if naman what BBM does isn’t independent of his father’s transgressions) or calm before the storm daw, lmao.

    Then again, I’m not one to lionize politicians. I give them props if they do something good and chastise them if there’s anything bad, and I don’t care what the name on the plaque says. That’s why it’s much easier for me to objectively look at Robin Padilla (who says a lot of stupid shit that doesn’t endear him to an already hostile crowd) instead of saying intellectually dishonest sweeping statements like “WaLa NaMaN SiLbi” which isn’t true at all. I like that JV Ejercito is willing to look at small scale nuclear reactors for alternative energy while Risa Hontiveros (who usually isn’t wrong) gets a thumbs down from me for not even looking at the proposal and going “hurr durr meltdown bataan”. Villar is correct that we should be putting as much attention to the ASF outbreak as the Guo circus.

    I watched this immediately after a non-theatrical release became available. Was honestly disappointed. Not only for having no artistic value or merits as a film whatsoever (not like I expected it to be) but the fact that it wants to be edgy yet pulls their punches.

    For example, in the “newborn porn” scene, you don’t actually see anything. It just shows the lead’s reaction to what was heavily implied to be fetus buggering. There’s also a ton of cutaway shots from the violent scenes… like the penis-in-the-eye-socket, from what I remember he was just yanking the guys head towards the direction of his crotch repeatedly and we get a shot from behind of his dick exiting through the skull in cartoonish fashion.

    I mean the target market of this movie are gorehounds looking for their next high, so why hold back? August Underground has a similar scene to the newborn porn one.

    That being said, you’re not missing anything if you don’t see this. It’s garbage. Some “controversial” films are actually “good” and worth experiencing like Salo, House That Jack Built, Martyrs, or In The Realm of the Senses. This one isn’t.
