El president
is a story about one brilliant Filipino General who bravely stood against foreign
countries who wants to colonize and dominate Philippines freedom and sovereignty.
This movie also shows where the Republic of the Philippines has been through as
well as the important individuals to be grateful for, for the independence that
Philippines has now. The film was inspired by “Memoirs of the Revolution” by
General Emilio Famy Aguinaldo.
At first I
thought watching the movie was a waste of time because I find it boring and
senseless but not after I watched it, I was surprised and thrilled about the
film, not just because it is part of our history but because of the story
itself and how it was shown through its cinematography which I really enjoyed.
Upon
watching the movie, it makes me feel excited with each scene I see because it
is precisely what I already knew for the reason that it is what we are
discussing recently on our Philippine History with Politics and Governance
Class. I also enjoy the movie because of the production design and the casting
which I thought was amazing, each of them portrayed their roles effectively and
impressively.
Few
realization after watching the film, since it was just inspired by the “Memoirs
of the Revolution” written by General Emilio Aguinaldo himself, Is it really
all that has happened in the past? I just felt bad for Supremo, Andres
Bonifacio, for what happened for him in the movie, he started the revolution,
and based on the film it didn’t ended up for what he deserves.
Whatever it
is that happened in the past, It just made me realize, the result it gave us, independence,
wherein we as a Filipino must and should really be proud, responsible, respectful
and grateful for.
