Martyr or Murderer

AGAIN NO HISTORIAL REVISIONISM WHATSOEVER!

The story revolves around what happened to the Marcoses when they were power and exiled. Imee Marcos is the main protagonist in this story for this is their side of the story.

I totally recommend this film to everybody and have an open mind to see the other side of the story.

No propaganda was featured in the film. It was all about love, family, strength and hope for the sake of country and people.

I cannot wait for the next installment of this trilogy which will tackle what happened to the Marcoses in Makiki, Hawaii. USA and back in power in the present time. I think it will be a hit just like the first one "Maid in Malacanang".

Hat's off to the director, Director Darryl Yap for giving us a movie that expresses the sentiments of a millennial like me.

This movie will make you think and asked yourself Is it really worth it to be a critic of a family who's been accused of such an evil things as if they were the root of evil? This movie just humanized the family Marcoses. The actors and actresses aced their roles. Kristine Reyes made me cry on her scenes. Cesar Montano on the other hand was like a splitting image of Marcos Senior. Beverly Salviejo scenes was never a dull moments. Young actor, Jerome Ponce portrayed his role as a young Ninoy.

There were a lot of symbolism through ART. If you're not going to pay attention you'll totally miss the foreshadowing.

Amazing storyline supported by published articles and interviews by the people involved. Who would have thought after 30+ years there would be a movie like this. Darryl Yap is an extraordinary director! From MIM to MOM, both never failed to make you cry. Bring tissue!!! Even my husband cried to this movie. Amazing actors! Christine Reyes is the best!

Definitely must watch whatever political color you are! For years, we were fed through movies, school books and journals with this heroic Ninoy image but this will show the other side of the story. As the saying goes, history is not grounded in facts rather it's winners' interpretation that prevails. Now, the Marcoses were heard.

As good as the first installment, Maid in Malacañang. Supported by preserved and protected archives deprived from the public. With only one purpose, to conceal the "truth" and create a "history" that will forever haunt a family.

Just don't mind the excessive and unnecessary humor and sometimes exaggerated cinematography. Too much to the point that it makes you feel dizzy.

Still, not a perfect movie but a definitely a great one. Brave. Powerful. Honest. Not all Filipinos will agree on this film, but most will. A masterpiece that resurrected the Philippine cinema.

Martyr or Murderer? Answer: Both.

Oh my goodness, what an excellent movie "Martyr or Murderer" is! From the very beginning, I was completely captivated by the story and was on the edge of my seat throughout the entire film. The acting was superb, with each actor bringing their own unique style to the characters they portrayed. Kristine did an outstanding job as Imee Marcos; You could see Cesar as the real Ferdinand Marcos Sr. On the screen; Ruffa G also did a great job as Imelda Marcos.

The storyline was both thought-provoking and deeply poignant, taking the audience on a journey that was both heart-wrenching and enriching. Despite the subject matter being heavy, the movie was delivered with a nuanced and sensitive approach, making it both accessible and engaging.

The movie truly debunks all the propagandas of the "yellow" supported with documents and facts. It even challenged the so-called historians if they see any history distortions in the movie. In fact, the movie is an eye opener to all and a revelation of what truly happened and the reason behind Ninoy Aquino's actions towards Ferdinand Marcos and Imelda.

The production design and cinematography were breathtaking, with every visual detail carefully crafted to enhance the story and transport the audience into the world created by the filmmakers in different timelines. It is clear that the movie was made with a lot of care, attention, and passion, and it truly pays off.

Overall, I cannot recommend "Martyr or Murderer" enough. It is an outstanding movie that deserves all the accolades it receives. I will definitely be telling everyone I know to watch it and cannot wait to see, the next franchise of the movie, Mabuhay Aloha Mabuhay!
