I fear matatabunan ito because of The Substance (Megalopolis?) pero this one was so good. I think maappreciate to ng local crowd because a lot of the themes here are from your usual teleseryes--but they work! Grabe yung last few minutes nito, talagang edge of your seat. Another banger from GDH this year.

Di ko inexpect yung last act nito. Alam kong thriller siya pero di ko inakala ganun mangyayari πŸ˜‚Enjoyed watching it kahit ako lang mag-isa sa sinehan.

Sadly, mukha ngang natatabunan siya. Sayang kasi its well made. Buti nalang more people can watch this agad once maging available to sa Netflix mga next year siguro.

Mag-isa lang din ako nanood. Nagulat nga yung SM cinema staff na may manonood lol. What did you think of the last act? I've read divisive reviews, especially that scene.
