Urduja

The last in my list of movies released last week is Urduja, tagged as the first Philippine-made animation movie.


A romantic movie based about Princess Urduja, legendary warrior of Pangasinan, and the forbidden love with a Chinese pirate, Lim Hang. Can't be compared with foreign animations, at least, given the constraints in production, skill and technique is evident. Although the setting is from the past, the dialogue is simple and gives a "present" feel, which makes it more effective.

Just my preference, I prefer the voice of the characters are not easily identifiable to the artists, like Dustin Hoffman as Master Shifu of Kung Fu Panda. And Regine Velasquez as Urduja did just that. The rest are also good--Eddie Garcia, Johnny Delgado, Cesar Montano...

Hey, I was collecting money for a birthday gift and didn’t want to mess that up, but curiosity got the better of me one evening. What drew me in was how quickly everything loaded, so I tried Reactoonz, hit a losing streak, felt it slipping, then placed one higher bet and landed a strong win via spin mama. The turnaround felt intense. I’d recommend it only if you play calmly.
