    I don't understand why James Reid recruited Sarah G for his HEAVY METAL band when all he heard her sing was old-timey tunes. He just wanted to bang his grandmother.

    ★★★½

    Like many flawed male protagonists before Luna, some might take the wrong lesson from his characterization. Arrogance and temper should not be revered in leadership. This film was a mistake. I'd say that Luna contributed to Duterte's popularity and eventual presidency in 2016--it was unfortunately easy to project Luna's tough-talking, discipline, and other strongman qualities on Duterte. But Luna's patriotism and nationalism is admirable, Duterte's is not.
