Batang Quiapo

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.

I thought they'd deviate from The Probinsyano's formula. Turns out they followed the exact same formula and THEN branded it under a different name. It's the exact same series with the god awful dialogue, Cardo is called Tanggol(...why am I surprised) and his rebelliousness is still there under the guise of "I want to protect you." There's another way to solve problems, guys. The rest of the cast also have cookie-cut personalities so...

Just watched the latest episode and even the villians are so predictable, why? Because they dictate every single thing about their plans, the flow of the script automatically directs you in only one direction and you expect us to think this is good storytelling? I thought I would be rooting for the villians in this, but no, they're also equally bad if not worse.

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.

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.

This is by far, the worst adaption of the film by Fernando Po, Jr. The only similarity to the original film is the last names of the protagonist (Dimaguiba) and the location (Quiapo). The main protagonist, played by Coco Martin is forever being persecuted by being shot (mulitple times), beaten, and tortured, while all the antagonists, mainly his stepfather and brother, continue to succeed. The series portrays the police in a disrespectful manner, and promotes criminality. The story moves extremely slowly due to the many plot threads. FPJ would be turning in his grave if he saw this. Disgraceful is putting it mildly.
