Alyas Palos II

About This Movie

Alyas Palos II continues the escapades of its titular hero with a mix of action and camp that defines its era. The pacing is a bit uneven, but it has these moments that just land perfectly. The atmosphere is thick with that late '70s to early '80s Filipino film vibe—gritty yet colorful. Practical effects play a big role, and you can see the creativity that went into them, even if they feel dated by today’s standards. The performances are earnest, with the lead really embracing the duality of being a hero and a thief. It's like a nostalgic time capsule of Filipino cinema that reflects both the culture and the genre conventions of its time.
