YouвЂ™ve got names like Joem Bascon, Alex Medina, Mon Confiado, Nonie Buencamino, Mylene Dizon, and even Ronnie Lazaro but sadly none of the other performances stand out. There isnвЂ™t much to be said about the rest of the cast of movie, which is a pity given that Heneral Luna assemblesВ quite an ensemble. It is truly his performance that propels Heneral LunaВ (and, sadly, his alone). DeliveringВ virtually the sameВ line of dialogue on two separate moments, Arcilla is able to convey angerВ bordering on madness at first and compassion nuanced with frustration soon after. One prime example of just how dynamic ArcillaвЂ™s portrayal can be is during this one scene involving a chicken vendor. He is an antihero вЂ“ the Wolverine of the Filipino insurrection. HereвЂ™s a man who rides head first screamingВ into battle just toВ rile up his troopsвЂ™ morale, but at the same time he is a one who can share warm moments and some banter with his mother. He is able to showcase the fierce, boisterous, and volatile man the general has been historically known to be, yet he is also able to flip the coin and show the passionate, sympathetic, and battle-weary softer side of the character. Arcilla plays with the whole spectrum of emotions in his portrayal of the larger-than-life general. Heneral LunaВ is a tale of how a dissenting voice can get swept away and ultimately perish under a wave of egos and personal interest.Д¬arrying the weight of the story is the above stellar performance of John Arcilla in the title role of General Antonio Luna. The real focus here is the tension, the inner turmoil, that brewedВ in the ranks of our so-called Filipino founding fathers.

Taking cues from Oro, Plata, Mata В the movie deliberately puts the colonialistsВ in the periphery, making them merely a backdrop whose presence stirred the pot. Rocha Heneral LunaВ takes a different approach in telling the story of how we lost the battle and got occupied by the Americans. Directed by Jerrold Tarog and with a script co-written by him, Henry Hunt Francia, and E.A.
