Going into this movie, I knew nothing of General Antonio Luna, but what they did for this legendary figure in Philippine history was extraordinary.
Luna was a man's man who was the ultimate patriot, willing to fight and die for his country. As he fought a revolution against those trying to colonize his country, he showed them he was not afraid, which made his enemies, even those more powerful than him, nervous. While his men followed him with pride, he made some enemies from within from those who did not share his same ideals of patriotism.
It was a well acted portrayal of Luna right up there with war epics like Patton.
An overall good war drama.
