MOVIE: Aguila (1980)

This is one of the best movies I've seen in Philippine cinema directed by Eddie Romero. I chanced upon this movie upon seeing Fernando Poe, Jr, famously known in my country as the "Action King", while channel surfing in Cinema One. Expecting an action movie, I started to watch the movie and was engrossed with the multi-generational story of one family. It turned out to be a drama role for one of the most beloved action figure in the history of Philippine cinema. Wonderful script, Great Acting. A story of passion, corruption, hope, redemption and fulfillment all in one movie.

A must-see for Philippine cinema lovers. Too bad, we don't make these types of movies anymore.
