Isa, Dalawa, Tatlo, Ang Tatay Kong Kalbo!

Isa, Dalawa, Tatlo, Ang Tatay Kong Kalbo is not only somewhat a ridiculous movie because it shows nonsense and silly actions but it also gives happiness to the viewers watching this film. At first, I did not like the film because I am not a fond of Filipino films. But then, as I watched the movie, it was kind of entertaining.

This film is all about the characters' daily lives. For me, it is a funny movie because it portrays our day-to-day lives wherein we can relate almost at anything of what they do. Their actions are very natural except for the part when they act funny. It is somehow a farce-like film because their funny actions are exaggerated.

It is entitled Isa, Dalawa, Tatlo, Ang Tatay Kong Kalbo because the main characters are absent-minded. They are a couple that doesn't even know that they are married.

Turn Left, Turn Right

Turn Left, Turn Right is a movie about soulmates who are destined for each other from the beginning. It's not a typical romantic comedy movie because the twist here is that there are numerous times that they are a few steps away from each other. For me, the movie is entitled Turn Left, Turn right because they are able to meet by literally just turning left or right. The ending was very overwhelming when they saw each other. It is a great movie especially for the hopeless romantic people.

The moral of this movie is that you need to be patient if you want the right love to come. It may take years and years but it will be surely worth it. If you are not patient enough, you might end up with the wrong person on the right time. On the other hand, if you are willing to wait twice than your willingness to wait, chances are you might end with the right person on the right time. How will you know if the person you are currently with is the right person? You won't. You'll just feel it.

Heneral Luna

      To be honest, when I first heard about this movie I was not really interested in it. Why? Because who would pay almost 200php to watch a boring historical movie? But as soon as I watched the trailer, my heart was beating so fast with excitement especially when I saw it was 50% off for students. This movie made me think twice about my purpose for my country. What can I contribute in my community?

        Heneral Luna is a story about the experiences of one of our heroes Antonio Luna. It has become one of my favorite movies after watching it. The main point of this movie is that we should realize what is more important, business or freedom? country or ourselves? In the movie, it shows that the real enemy was not the Americans, but it was our fellow Filipinos. We are our own enemies for we ourselves killed one another, and challenged one another because of our pride. I think that was the ultimate mistake the Filipinos did and the reason why they lost the war. They were conquered because there was no unity among the Filipinos.

        I highly recommend for people especially the youth to watch this film because it is not only funny, modern, and brutal, it is also a film that can open our eyes of what happened to our country. This film trended nationwide in social media. For me, if this movie trended and triggered our patriotism, we should produce more because it is quite saddening to think that most Filipinos are ignorant about our country. For example, the posts on social medias questioning why Apolinario Mabini was sitting the entire movie was just really stupid.
