Movie Review: Kamkam

This film aims to depict the power struggle in a corrupt neighbrohood.It's about a thug "Johhny" who lord over the community as he beds three women.

I was invited to the premiere screening of Kamkam at SM North Edsa that was attended by the cast and crew of the film. As we all know Direk Joel Lamangan is known for making a film that is socio political and mirrows the life of poor Filipinos. So that's what he shows here in the film it depicts the life of Filipinos living in depressed areas headed by a Allen Dizon that handles all the illegal activities in the area and has 3 wives. So there's a lot of stars in the film and direk Joel gave them equal exposure towards the film.

Overall na capture naman ng film yung environment na gustong ipakita ng pelikula. Then maayos na nailatag ang istorya sa bawat character at alam mo na pinag isipan ang screenlay ng pelikula. Mapapansin mo din ang mga matatapang na dialogue sa pelikula at mga dialogue na memorable. Very campy yung treatment ng pelikula, maingay at punung punong ng aksyon. Para sa akin dalawang character and nag standout sa pelikula, yung character ni Jean at ni Sunshine. Pinaka mahusay na pagganap para sa pelikulang ito si Jean Garcia, stand out talaga siya sa bawat eksena at damang dama mo ang bawat linyang binabato niya. Agaw pansin naman ang character ni Sunshine dito especially nung time na nagin religious siya. Mahusay din ang pagganap ni Elizabeth Oropesa bilang katuwang sa mga pangunahing tauhan na pwede niyang ikawagi sa mga award giving body. Aside sa 3 nabanngit ko, mahuhusay ang lahat ng mga artista na nagsipagganap kabilang na rito ang mga youns stars na sina Joyce, Lucho, Hiro and Rita. Nabigyan naman ng hustisya ni Allen Dizon ang kanyang character sa pelikulang ito.
 

The director's treatment was clear enough to convey the message that it would like to deliver. It's good to see on big screen that we tackle social political issues, morality, infidelity and family ties values in one film. This film is a must watch and eye opener for us to see the other world lying here in our country.






My Verdict:  3.5/5
