Movie Review: 3Pol Trobol: Huli Ka Balbon

3Pol Trobol: Huli Ka Balbon tells the story of Apollo "Pol' Balbon (Coco Martin) who is a loving son to single mother Mary Balbon (Aiai delas Alas). Pol works as a bodyguard for the Executive Director of National Defense Agency who after discovering an anomaly on his agency, gets ambushed but manages to pass on what he knows to Pol before he dies. 

But before Pol could report to the authorities, he becomes the primary suspect in killing his former boss thanks to the real killer, Senator Simon (Edu Manzano) who pins the blame on Pol and comes up with fabricated evidence against him. While on the loose, Pol knows he has to find out who really killed his boss, while protecting his boss' daughter, Trina (Jennylyn Mercado). Pol attempts to go near Trina but Simon's son, Andrew (Sam Milby), is always with Trina, making it harder for Pol to talk to her. In order to get near Trina and be able to tell her what he knows, he has to disguise as a girl and introduces himself as Paloma, Trina's sister from another mother. As Paloma, Pol is able to live with Trina and do things with her, giving her enough time and chance to help solve their father's death.
But what could happen when Trina finds out that the sister she though she has, is actually the suspect killing her father?

Surprisingly, Coco Martin has been able to deliver here as a director in bringing a family oriented comedy film that pinoy “masa” and fans of probinsyano will surely like and enjoy. There are extreme action on the side that male audience will surely like and pampakilig scenes that female will audience like and brand of comedy that pinoy masa will surely enjoy. Coco Martin is so funny as Paloma with her fabulous wardrobe and beautiful transformation. Jennylyn Mercado also has a surprise on this film and her chemistry with Coco Martin is such a delight to watch on big screen. It's also refreshing to see Sam Milby as a major villain in a film that we usually see as a leading man on the big screen. The sound track of the film is also the other element that will surprise you on this film and in-fairness they have good selection of catchy songs that they been able to utilize in this film.  So If you are looking for a decent entertainment film to watch with family this Christmas season, 3Pol Trobol is a good catch.

My Verdict: 3/5
