Reviews from Letterboxd:

filmcirclerjct – ★½
“It starts out promising, but quickly turns into one underwhelming and unsatisfying film that is only saved by the better than average performances of its cast led by Vince Rillon, Janelle Tee and Baron Geisler. Overall, you can skip this one. It’s not exactly a big loss.” -
Foxxx – ★★
“Emmm… Film ini terlalu ambisius dengan ceritanya, sementara level produksinya ya seadanya. Berusaha untuk menyajikan potret kehidupan bandar judi dengan kelompoknya, serta berbagai masalah yang ada.”
English translation: “Emmm… This film is too ambitious with its story, while its production level is minimal. It tries to portray the life of a gambling boss and his group, along with all the problems that come with it.” -
goldwinreviews – ★
“Walang nangyayari. Halos isang oras, naglalaro lang sila ng Pusoy. Yung mga natirang oras, katawan naman pinaglalaruan nila. Binigyan ng pamilya ang bawat karakter, para masabing may kwentong nagaganap. Pero wala pa rin.”
English translation: “Nothing happens. For almost an hour, they just play Pusoy. The rest of the time, they play with each other’s bodies. They gave each character a family just to make it seem like there’s a story going on. But there still isn’t.”
Meta Description:
