A good effort from Philippines even when is full of clichés,

there are some interesting shots of markets

and documentary style.... there is a good work with te actors, the narrative is clear and editing are very dynamic..... sometimes look like a bad music video and repeated the soundtrack a little, but anyway is admirable that the director said that to shoot the film he taked only three days and a half.......knowing this.....for me is amazing nd make me consider the film a good effort........ at the end, you feel like just seeing another underworld movie from Asia, very low budget that have a more or less interesting plot from the beginning but that need More psychology in the characters, the ambient is OK in general terms but makes you feel like manila is the wort and most dangerous place in the world.

In the best style of the supernatural stories of the television sixties Tracey Moffatt give us avant gard cinematography making a stylized Australian outback mixed between real things and sets with a very beautiful and dramatical photography full of irony, humour ,suspense and tragedy; she made a very unusual films and as always with this kind of films is very hard to accept the new reality that the director propose, then after the mixed feelings regular moviegoers but just of the regular cinema that always told the same story and in the same style never creating a new world, probably could be disappointed, if you think cinema is an adventure and the approximation to new cosmovisions and of course poetry and beauty, then this is a film for you.
