Odie and his best friend Irene are two outsiders who find a second home in the Philippine underground music scene. The two decide to form a band and put together an unlikely crew that consists of the school bully, an ex-punk-turned-barista, and a former-childstar-turned-band-manager. The film follows their misadventures as they face satanic S&M bands, samurai swindlers, narcissistic rockstars, the pretentious Philippine art community and the freakiest music video auteur ever. Co-written by Diego Castillo, the guitarist of one of the Philippines' biggest rock bands SANDWICH, and directed by multi-awarded music video director Quark Henares, Rakenrol is a heartfelt ode to the underground scene both filmmakers spent their formative years in.
I love this film. You will feel the thought and essence nung film.
Ramdam mo na buo ang pelikula at iisa lang and direksyon na
pinatutunguhan. From the characters up to the story talagang swakpara
maenjoy mo at maappreciate and mundomga taong mahilig sa banda. Jason
Abalos is efforless here, very natural at bumagay sa kanya yung role.
Naaaprecite ko siya as an actor here. Glaiza, Ketsup and Alwyn is also
has their own moment in the film. Si Jun Sabayton ay isang alamat sa
pelikulang ito, ibang klase at hanep talaga.
My Verdict: 4.5/5
