So, 'Lt. Col. Alejandro Yanquiling, WPD' is one of those action flicks from the early '90s that really encapsulates the era's vibe. Directed by Leonardo Pascual, it's got that peculiar blend of over-the-top action and a somewhat clunky narrative flow. Jestoni Alarcon delivers a solid performance as the titular character, with supporting roles that bring a mix of comic relief and tension. The pacing feels a bit erratic at times, but it keeps you engaged, especially with the practical effects and stunts that really show the era's charm. Themes of duty and sacrifice are peppered throughout, though they're sometimes overshadowed by the relentless action sequences. It's got a certain raw energy that's hard to pin down, but you can feel the heart in it.
