Pulang araw

Pulang Araw had potential, but one actor's (you know which one, I'm not gonna name him) ridiculously awful fake Japanese accent destroyed the whole thing for me. It's so bad, I half-expected him to apologize mid-scene for butchering the language. Every time he speaks, I'm pulled out of the drama and into a bad comedy sketch. I don't know if the character is supposed to be menacing or if he's just really confused about where he's from. The plot could be gripping, the cinematography stunning, but nothing can overcome the trainwreck of an accent that steals the spotlight-in the worst way possible.

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.

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.

One of the greatest Filipino series in our generation showcasing the battle for life and freedom of our ancestors during colonization of Imperial Japan. This show open our younger minds of how critical history is in our daily lives. It shaped who we are today. Our culture, our tradition and our character. Hands up to the creators, producers, all staff and actors who make this series move our hearts and feel from deep within how to be a Filipino which is very relevant to these days. Mabuhay Pilipinas kahit ang hirap mong mahalin. This kind of series sometimes reminds me of why I am a Filipino and why we should love the Philippines.

Great actors (except for the actress who plays Adelina. She is way too much and I hate her facial expressions and outburts of emotions, and gestures. OVERACTING!!!!) and I would've given it a perfect score had the CGI been good and the Japanese language more convincing. Philippine production still has a long, long, long way to go but this is truly an entertaining and educational show. I hope they didnt change the song intro though. This is just one of the only two shows where I never skip the intro. But since episode 39, when the song intro changed, I started skipping it. I dont like the new song intro. If it is a part of the same song, then I dont like that part at all. Anyway, overall, this show is just one of the very few Filipino shows that entertains me. I rarely watch pinoy shows coz they are all just the same but this one is okay. I just hope someone would tell that actress to tone it down. She is freaking me out. Her character isnt a crazy woman but she's acting CRAZY with too much energy that she has become too annoying to watch.
