I don’t know if foreign viewers could have appreciated it, but it’s in a sort of deprecating way we Filipinos see ourselves and being able to laugh about it at the same time. They were unruly and unorganized, ironically reminiscent of the times when the present Philippine congress has been chaotic.įilipino humor was also an element that was constantly present and appropriately highlighted.

Even from the very beginning, we are introduced to General Antonio Luna’s explosive temper, but it wasn’t only him. Heneral Luna, the film, perfectly captured what Filipino temper and humor is. General Antonio Luna is the Manila-born Ilocano who was among the Ilustrados that took part on the Propaganda Movement during the Spanish Colonial Era and who eventually became the commanding officer of the Philippine Revolutionary Army. Heneral Luna is an epic biographical film set during the time of the Philippine-American War, after Spain surrendered to America (or in other accounts, after the Philippines was sold to the United States). Gripping scenes, emotional lines, punchlines with perfect timing – this is a movie that shall leave a mark for decades. Finally after years, here is a movie every Filipino would be proud of.
