Pulang araw

It's too early to say it definitively, but I am already in awe of this masterpiece. The production team's dedication and the creator's vision have truly brought something special to life. I can't express enough how proud I am of everyone involved in making this series a reality. The storytelling, the visuals, the attention to detail - everything is top-notch. I sincerely hope that we get to see much more of this incredible work in the future. Kudos to the entire team for their outstanding efforts!

I am incredibly excited to see the next episodes and discover what more they can offer to elevate the quality of this show even further.

Not just a single episode ever watched, Pulang Araw proves a breeding ground, about a war. It shows the faith, the thrill, the agony and irony.

Forteza and Licauco's chemistry can compare to Donny Pangilinan and Belle Mariano, and it shows the resemblance, from their predecessor, Maria Clara and Ibarra. The narratives prove how their on-screen chemistry grow.

It took over twelve years to adopt this into a teleserye, it what goes like, in a teleserye that adopts a historical narrative.

Regardless of who you are, either if you're a Kapamilya, Kapuso or Kapatid, it presents that how it went well and made this show, worth watching.

David Licauco (Hiroshi) is a revelation here! I would be expecting for him to win acting awards for this portrayal.

Barbie Forteza (Adelina) has always been superb! Sanya Lopez (Teresita) portrayal of a comfort woman is flawless. No other artist could perform this.

Alden Richards (Eduardo) is amazingly good as well. Dennis Trillo (Yuta) is the villain you will hate forever. The supporting actors, Rochelle Panginiban, and the others are also really great.

Hands down because cinematography is great! Chemistry among actors is also evident. Although I am always on a crying stint every episode, it has always been purposeful. Watch it now!

The cinematography is striking, with rich visuals that capture the essence of the landscapes and the emotional weight of the story. The performances are heartfelt, particularly from the lead, who delivers a nuanced portrayal that resonates deeply with the audience. The supporting cast also adds depth, creating a rich tapestry of relationships that enhance the central themes. The series' spacing is deliberate, allowing viewers to immerse themselves fully in the characters' journeys. The use of music is particularly effective, underscoring key moments and enhancing the emotional impact. Overall, "Pulang Araw" is a poignant and thought-provoking film that lingers long after the credits roll. It's a must-watch for anyone who appreciates stories that delve into the complexities of human experience while celebrating the beauty of Filipino culture.

Only those who have low-standard toward films will rate this war-drama series good or great. It was only entertaining when the story was about the childhood experiences of the lead characters, but when they became adults, everything fell apart. The dialogues are not impressive, and the director does not have the skills to direct action sequences. The whole series was only interesting at first, and only because there are not a lot of war-drama shows that had been produced in the Philippine film industry. The overacting, Japs speaking Tagalog, Pinoy looking Japs, foolish sequences, lazy cam angles (from the Jap invasion down to the end) rubbished or undeveloped characters, crying for 10 to 20 seconds too long, location felt like as just a small district or a barangay, anti-climatic with a horrendous ending, not in 4K, et cetera!!!
