Film Review: BLOCK Z

There's a new Mikhail Red film! Fresh from the success of his first official Netflix film, what can be said about the Philippines' first blockbuster zombie film? Read Engelbert Rafferty's review here:

At 28, Mikhail Red is at the height of his career. Imagine, he showed off his directing chops to the whole nation when he became a part of the 9th Cinemalaya Philippine Independent Film Festival at age 21, releasing his debut film under the “New Breed” category called Rekorder — a voyeuristic analysis of the new generation and the impact of technology in the progress (or lack thereof) of social…

Ilang netizens ang nag-comment sa post niya tulad ng: “no bra day, everyday” “nasa bahay lang naman…ako nga di ako nagbrabra sarap kaya ng feeling” “And ur not wearing bra #ootd #quarantine” “Ok we got it.

finding the heart of this story is a lot like falling in love.

there was absolutely no reason for this film to be on my radar. the festival drama did not help at all. putting this in, in place of a certain blockbuster hit wasn’t exactly indicative of the growth that the festival wanted to achieve. this was a suitor desperately vying for my attention, and i wasn’t giving it the time of day. it had appeal, but it was for someone else, just not me. still, like a potential beloved who is so sure of his affections, he enlisted the help of his friends, to put in a good word. social media was ablaze with such glowing commentary, it was difficult to ignore. even then, i refused to be blinded by its brightness. my friends, not being able to get over the film were incessantly asking if i had seen it. truthfully, it was baffling how such a seemingly unassuming film could merit such positive feedback. it was enough for me to grow curious. i combed through all the junket footage i could find, and it was in the press conference where a reference to one of my absolute favorite plays ever written came up. it was enough  for me to raise my brows. this suitor was daring me to say yes, knowing it had already won my heart. i had never intended to fall in the first place, much less, want to keep coming back. i had seen this just as the festival was winding down, at my cinema at least. i found myself missing the film, like a loved one who had gone and was never to return for a fair amount of time. how does one cope with the longing, then? you write a love letter.

consider this a love letter to vince and kath and james.

there is nothing particularly new to this love story. it is as formulaic as all love stories, and love triangle tales go. a boyish girl caught between a bad boy and lovable eternally pining boy next door. it is cheesy at times, the adorable kind of baduy, and is unafraid to be so. and yet, i found myself smiling, laughing out loud and crying. it is utterly simplistic, unpretentious, but whole, and all encompassing, which, when you think about it is quite contradictory. for such a little story it has a big heart. it was full, overflowing, even. this is a teen love triangle made compelling by its background of intricate family relationships, presented with such subtlety but was enough to make a powerful point. i came out of the cinema, with a lighter heart, feeling exhilarated. it was a high that lasted for days and days on end. even now, writing about it, brings me so much joy.

the cyrano de bergerac reference sold the movie to me. i had first read the play in one sitting after seeing a younger schoolmate reading it on the bus ride home. that was my senior year of high school. after my first encounter, i found every translation of the play calling at me: from the original french text, to rolando tinio’s filipino translation. it’s a play, that is a bit more progressive in language than shakepere. it’s a poetic masterpiece. i’m not sure if edmond rostand counted words and syllables…he probably did, but the lines never felt so rigidly measured. the language was modern, but classic. it was provocative, and sensuous. i am almost sure, that the cyrano comparison to this movie is attributed more to the similar nature of both narratives - that of hiding behind another person, speaking for another person, not being able to come into the light, maimed by personal inadequacies, but having so much love to give. i find that this reference also speaks to the language used for both works. ‘vince and kath and james’ is just as much a work of provocative, sensuous poetry using modern day language, with social media as its ‘stage,’ if you may. the direction, the blocking, the silent communication between the actors is also a form of physical poetry. verbally, it was music. physically, it was a graceful dance.

none of the three main actors was a selling point for me. i either liked them, was waiting for their break, or did not know much about them. to say then, that they were the biggest surprises of the film is an understatement. let’s talk about them one by one:

my initial reaction when ronnie got cast was ‘why him?’ i did not know much about him, and i haven’t seen enough of him in scripted material to know what to expect. i know that he dances, i know that he is a heartthrob of sorts. i know that he has such a strong presence, one that might be easily misconstrued as an off-putting edginess. truth be told, before seeing the movie, i had read quite a number of not so favorable reviews, that were so convincing, i was actually scared to even give this movie a chance. i saw the production number on asap, and thought there was something there. i held on to whatever that was. james, an athletic jock seems to be tailored to his personality, which is a good thing. he has his shining moments. he has a rawness that only needs to be guided and refined, if he really wants to be better. 

now, julia baretto: this girl is one of those who i expected so much from when she was launched. by virtue of her family name, i genuinely have always wanted the best for her. i was ready to be a fan, actually. it hurt every time i see her projects fail to do what it was supposed to do. i would feel tired and frustrated for her. on interviews, i would find myself listening intently to her, fascinated by how articulate she is, by her thought process. it was a mystery to me why a girl as smart as she is, isn’t able to breakthrough. i couldn’t be a fan, but for some reason, i could never dislike her, even if it was frankly, the norm. in the junket, she would always speak about her walls being broken down. i understood that, but never understood how…. vkj is her breakthrough! as much as the film speaks to the heart, i was relieved and so emotional for julia. it is in this film that i understood her acting choices, her style, and her heart she is definitely a baretto, she has proven that, but more importantly, she has come into her own. 

joshua garcia: to tell you that the beginnings of this boy was interesting, is an understatement. i did not understand the appeal, the demeanor, i just did not understand him at all. i honestly could not bear to watch him. that is, until ’the greatest love’ came along. it was a slow start for his character, that i had time to be nervous for the show. and then he turned out to be the biggest surprise of them all! i now i liked him. when feedback for the film started to pour in, and the name of john lloyd cruz was being thrown around to describe joshua and his portrayal, all i could think was, ‘okay, i already like the boy, but isn’t the jlc reference a bit too much? he is decent, but he can’t be THAT good!’ my friends who were begging me to watch the movie, even used joshua to sell the film to me. they were right! i find that the jlc comparison is just a reference point by which we could understand joshua as an actor right now but make no mistake, he is his own person, he has his own power. i tend to look at the actor’s eyes to know if he has it, and my God, this boy has it in spades and aces. his eyes speak, his silence is compelling, hearing him speak is captivating. he is the heart of this movie. overheard, after the screening, ‘parang si vince ang nagdala ng movie…’ i now love the boy, and am excited for what more is in store for him. i hope he never stops learning. he is proof to me, that people can grow, that people change for the better.

the chemistry of these three kids just makes me so happy. it works! this movie has done what it set out to do, in that, i now watch these three (two, because i am still waiting on ronnie on altl…) on tv and smile, and trust what they are able to do….

favorite vkj things:

vince and james’ relationship, their understanding of each other, how it was physically demonstrated….how their eyes speak…

james and kath at the feels cafe….kilig overload!

james looking on as vince was confronting his mother

vince’s quiet moments

vince in the car doing everything he can to spoil james’ game

the pool party, for the three of them

maris as best friend maxine, was hysterical, and adorable, especially jumping rope

the basketball court scene between the two boys

kath and her brother’s relationship

kath seeing her father after a long time (no dialogue, just feels and there were a lot of feels!)

julia’s physicality as kath….

vince confronting his mother (favorite joshua scene of all)

vince and kath’s banter, which goes back to the language/poetry of the film

how the unrequited love was manifested through vince’s eyes

the talyer scene (goodness! julia is so beautiful, and with joshua looking on is electric. it worked! the camera work on this scene wins!!!)

pabebe, in love kath with a maarte twang

the sisig scene

the ’got to believe’ scene, and how that movie’s dialogue was tied into this movie, kilig!!!!!! (and yes, juila is really tita claudine’s heir apparent!)

the messy pipe scene

the side walk scene

the ice cream scene, the kids nailed that one, i was a mess

the last scene, simple,but it hit hard

bottom line: i love vince and kath so much! 

i am not exactly this movie’s target audience. i had heard of the source material but did not care for it, so news of a film based on said material was a wonder to me. it turned out to be one of my favorite films. this is a credit to the creative team and the writers who adapted the material, and made it into a story that someone like me would understand, and to direk ted for directing it the way you did, for what you have done for your cast. i know it matters, because you have made the kids more accessible. thank you for not dumbing it down, which could easily be the case for kilig films like this one. it makes me miss those teen shows on tv that i grew up with. ‘vince and kath and james’ has single-handedly made the case for the resurrection of the teen genre on television. it is a mystery to me why there is no teen show on tv when there are writers and directors like the ones of vkj. consider it, please? thank you!

to close this, i came out of the cinema laughing and giddy through my welcome tears. it’s a feeling that i haven’t parted with til now. and it’s still a shock to my system. this is one film i am grateful i was able to catch. i did not know i needed it. by speaking to my heart with such sincerity, it gave me a chance to use my heart, and just my heart. i have a tendency to be so wrapped up in my head sometimes and this film has become a reminder for me to use my heart as often as possible. thank you, team vkj, for making it okay to wear my heart on my sleeve. i will forever be grateful.

PAUBAYA-Music Video

This music video is a heart melting song because of the story behind it. Mararamdaman mo talaga yung sakit kahit na hindi mo siya naranasan. Sobrang effective nung song lalo na nung binigyan na ito ng buhay nina Julia Baretto at Joshua Garcia. You can actually feel the emotion of the two actors here, parang totoo yung iyak at yung pagbitaw ng mga linya kaya ganon nalang nagtrend ang kantang ito. And I also want to give all the credits to the singer Ms. Moira Dela Torre, without her there’s no such a heart melting song that we all hearing right now.

Paubaya – Moira Dela Torre

Ito ang naging review ko sa kanta ni Moira na « paubaya ». Sa hindi ko inaasahang pagkakataon na ang mapipindot ko ang official music video na kung saan si Julia Baretto at Joshua Garcia ang mga artistang gumanap dito. Mapapansin ko kaya sila ang piniling artista dahil sa naging kundisyon at sitwasyon na pinagdadaan nila (hindi ako sigurado kung legal na ba silang magkasintahan). Sa simula ng music video, ipapakita na kung gaano sila kasaya, kung paano ngumiti ang kanilang mga mata sa tuwing nakikita nila ang bawat isa. Ibabahagi ko ang aking repleksyon at emosyon sa ginawa nilang music video. Sa napakinggan ko sa kanta ni Moira, hindi ko mapigilan yung emosyon na nararamdaman ko lalo na’t konektado yung totoong nangyayari sa dalawang artista at sa laman ng kanta. May halong lungkot at saya ang naramdaman ko sa akin napanood, maaaring malungkot dahil ang dating nagsasama dati ay magiiba na ng landas at maaari ring saya dahil kahit papaano may oportunidad sila na makapagsimula ulit ng bagong buhay na haharapin, kahit hindi na magkasama. Isa ito sa mga kinakatakutan kong mangyari sa’king buhay, na may taong makakasama ko na bumuo na future naming dalawa, at sa isang iglap ay mawawala nalang lahat na parang bula. Bawat tao ay may karapatan na malaman ang kasiguraduhan nila sa isang tao, dahil napakasakit na ang mga ibang tao na umaabot hanggang lima hanggang sampung taon pero hindi na masaya. Dapat matutunan din natin makuntento at maging masaya kung ano mang meron ang isa’t isa. Walang perpektong tao pero may perpektong pagtanggap sa tao.
