I had a hard time getting through the first episode. It was so over the top in everything: the acting, the characters, the situations... So I dropped it halfway through. I tried it again a couple of months later and again, I thought it was ridiculous.

Except that since I knew what to expect, I just decided to accept the ridiculousness of it all. So I'm on episode 3, and I'm starting to genuinely laugh, while also being compelled by the story to continue watching.

I recommend the story to be put on in the background. It'll be enough for one to decide whether they want to actually start watching it. I'll come back and update this review after I finish watching the whole series.

I am Filipino American, born and raised in the US. I understand Tagalog, but have never been able to watch Filipino movies because of poor production quality, not to mention bad writing usually. But this one is different! Good direction, cinematography, special effects, story and editing. It's clever and over the top, yes. However, it's exactly the energy it needs for a story like this. I enjoyed it the whole time and would watch it again.
