Batang Quiapo

Seriously 😒 the way they portray Quiapo is disrespectful because in reality all of does things never happened in Quiapo and we all know it could happen in real life but still it's rare to hear does things happening in Quiapo besides it's far from the original story even tho it's a remake the main character from the original batang Quiapo is a thief but also have good heart and has respect hunger and poverty causes the main character to turn into life of crime while this iteration is just bad he's gangstaer with no respect for he's parents not good for kids cause it will teach them criminal activity.

All the characters are crap, the actors and actress are brilliant in their jobs but the characters they portray are all crap from the main characters which are Tangol-stupid selfish and trouble maker, Marites-too stupid to be a mother(seriously, if you're husband forbid you to visit your own son, you obey him?, too stupid to let her husband treat her mother like a garbage, and the mistress, she could do a lot of things to that women to go away, but she didn't), and there are some side characters such as Uno-the same as Tango selfish and hopeless romantic, he doesn't care if he put his friends in trouble just to get what he wants. The most important thing is the story line, IT IS TOO SLOW, I think they set the story as day per day basis, and the the story almost contained the typical stories from old tv series and movies, like they make the most epic scene into a just a dream, there's always a mistress, there are nothing else new.

Show is too slow moving...........There's more conversation than actual action. Cardo doesn't make good decisions. It's frustrating to watch a main character make foolish decisions. It's a turn off for me. I watch once in a while. In fact the sow is full of foolish decision-makers. I'd like to see better decision-making. You can make a good show will good decision makers. It's also a good example for the younger generation. Why does Bubbles have to dress like a prostitute? It's good for filipino actors/acresses to return to respecting self, especially the women. Start role modeling, modesty.....

I had high hopes for "Batang Quiapo," especially given its star power and the legacy of the original film. However, I found myself let down by the execution. The storyline is the same as with Ang Probinsyano, full of violence, killings, and lawbreakers, yet they promote the protagonist as the good guy and god-fearing individual.

The characters are stereotypical, lacking depth, and their motivations often seem forced. The pacing is uneven, with some episodes feeling like filler. While the show tries to tackle serious social issues, it often glosses over them in favor of melodrama, making it hard to take the themes seriously.

Additionally, the dialogue feels clunky at times, and the humor falls flat. I was hoping for a fresh take on the classic story, but instead, it feels like a missed opportunity. Overall, "Batang Quiapo" struggles to keep my interest, and I won't be tuning in for the next episode.

Coco's direction and storytelling are like trash that wants to become a human.

This series is very disturbing, yet many people, including kids, are watching it because their idols are in it. It's not suitable for those who are easily scared and may trigger anxiety while watching. The plot is chaotic, and some of the characters doesn't give justice as well. It shows pure evil and doesn't do justice to the old FPJ movie. Fans of the original will be disappointed by how messy this adaptation is. Though it attracts viewers due to its cast, it lacks respect for the original work and fails to deliver a meaningful experience. The disturbing scenes might haunt sensitive viewers after watching.
