Trivia
Because General Ronald dela Rosa was running for the Philippine 2019 mid-term elections, the film was rushed for cinema release on January 13, 2019, just 13 days before the campaign period for May's midterm election starts, which states that no movie, cinematograph, or documentary portraying the life or biography of a candidate shall be publicly exhibited in a theater, on a television station, or any public forum during the campaign period.

Political propaganda with a sappy storyline

This movie is infuriating on so many levels. The lines were cliched and forced, the characters were one dimensional and the movie made Gen. Bato look like some paragon of virtue. I don't even understand why this was graded B in the first place.

The cheaper alternative for this film would be an episode from MMK. But if you really want to kill time and waste money, then go ahead.
