A
washed-up Filipino actor and struggling entertainer in Japan, Manuel
Hidalgo (Carlo Aquino) comes across a high-profile serial killer at
large with a bankrupt businessman Shigeru Yamaguchi (Takehiro Hira).
Crosspoint is a compelling fast-paced action thriller that resonates
with real-life struggles and familial bonds. Carlo Aquino delivers a
poignant performance as a dedicated father, while Takehiro Hira shines
as a businessman grappling with personal challenges and father issues to her daughter. The film's grounded
narrative and relatable themes make it accessible to audiences, and its
cinematography effectively captures both the naturalism and cinematic
flair. With a harmonious blend of Filipino and Japanese elements,
"Crosspoint" offers an engaging cinematic experience that is well worth
the watch for action enthusiasts.
My Verdict: 3.5/5
