Green Bones

I'm filipino, I never watch filipino movies that much, but this gave me super emotional when I watch this with auntie and my cousin, this movie change my life!

The director is G. O. A. T this should be recognize in the hollywood shows, and also I love the filter cinematic it feel so alive. The script, actor, the story, music, and the emotional scenes.

It reminds me on the other movie but I don't remember that much but it is similar with this movie but the plot is different. I think it is Green Mile by tom hanks. Yeah it is same called "green" in the title that name it but different. I love it!!!

Green Bones is honestly one of the best Filipino films I've ever seen. Probably one of the best ever made. It has an incredible story and the actors were amazing! Everything, from the cinematography to the acting, was just so well done. The movie is absolutely powerful and unforgettable!

Kudos to the whole team! 👏👏👏

This movie made me create an IMDB account just so I can rate it. Good actors, writer, director and so on. So many scenes made me teary eyed and my eyes were swollen after the movie. Honestly I just watched because of SB19, their song Nyebe is the soundtrack and I wanted to support them. I can't even remember the last time I watched an MMFF movie because the previous film stories were mediocre. I'm amazed that the film industry now a days is upping its game and producing quality film. For sure this movie will win awards in the MMFF. Congratulations in advance!! I know Dennis is a great actor, I just discovered Ruru is great as well. Again... What an awesome movie and reminded me to always choose to be kind to everyone. Thank you Green bones... it was a good additional experience this Christmas day!! Merry Christmas!

Maganda naman sya (technically). It is well-made, well-acted, well-written and very poetic. If may rule book for winning awards they followed it religiously.

But its not for me. It's a movie I'll likely forget after watching another 20 films. 390 worthy? Not sure, pra pwede ko na syang antayin sa netflix tuwing semana santa.

Ending felt rushed- after that conclusion scene, all the deep-rooted systemic problems seemed to disappear without proper resolution. The villains were taken out too conveniently, without meaningful encounters, domingo's built-up resentment toward Ruth's father felt wasted.

Directed by Zig Madamba Dulay, the film attempts to delve into complex themes such as morality, redemption, and systemic corruption. However, the narrative often feels disjointed, with pacing issues that disrupt the story's flow. Key plot points are either rushed or overly prolonged, leading to a lack of cohesive storytelling. While Dulay's previous work, Firefly, showcased his directorial prowess, Green Bones doesn't consistently reflect the same level of craftsmanship.

The film's ambition is evident, but the execution lacks the depth and precision necessary to leave a lasting impact. It serves as a reminder that a strong premise requires equally strong direction and character development to truly resonate with audiences.
