I rate it 10 because biographical film "Felix Manalo" is really inspiring and can really inspire the lives of many! It shows the humble beginnings of the Iglesia Ni Cristo and it moves our faith that this church's really belongs to Him. An eye-opener to everyone and a must-see film! I just want to clarify things; we are not required to watch this film. It was our heart that wants to watch this biographical film. It made us proud as an Iglesia Ni Cristo member. Two thumbs up for Mr. Dennis Trillo for portraying our beloved first Executive Minister, Brother "Felix Manalo". You did a great job po. The acting is SUPERB! Thank you also for directing this film Direct Joel Lamangan. It touched our life and especially our Faith.Ms. Bella Padilla is also great in her acting! Thank you po. The cinematography, production design, location, props, costumes, and scoring of this film is also great and well defined. The sepia effect will also move you; it was like you were really back in old time especially during 1900's and as if you were travelling in different places in the Philippines. The effect perfectly fits in the film. Until now, I can't even hold my tears while remembering and recalling every scenes in this film especially my favorite line when Ka Felix said "I did not received my calling from you, but from God". It actually gives chills. Teachings inside the church are from the bible. "Walang labis at walang kulang". This film will also show you the history of our faith. This movie also tackles our faith, on how we should love and not to lose hope. I will now wait for the 6-hour uncut of this movie on DVD. I can't really wait to have a copy of it. My family is also excited to watch the 6-hour movie.Everything about this movie is so beautiful, truly AMAZING and monumental. You can also learn many things in the movie. A must watch for everyone! It is still showing nationwide and already reached half way around the world, it last premieres in London! Everyone is invited to watch! This powerful movie will also answer your questions about our church. What are you waiting for? Visit the nearest cinema near you!

Felix Y. Manalo was a Filipino, and so am I. It is hard not to be proud at what he achieved. I know he could not have done so without the deepest of conviction, unshakable courage and the will to endure. A film that is about historical figure who fought for what he believes in.Joel Lamangan, the director, gained my deepest respect for his craft and talent.Everyone should watch this movie about the courage of one Filipino who dedicated his life to seek such truth about his belief.

The movie has superb cinematography and good story lines.What I like most with this film is the way the director compressed the scenes without sacrificing the story lines.The actors are good in delivering their lines.Inasmuch as the settings is from 19th century the costumes are great and delicately selected to have a good view of 19th century.The movie depicts the story of a man who inspite of trials and tribulations that came along his way,did not waver in his faith and stiid his ground in his calling.This movie is very inspiring and it gives people an insight on who this person is and what he did to our country.He led a church dynamically and with that great leadership I think it just behooves for us to imitate someone who leads something .

The transition of his life to how he was able to reach the gap of horses and cars is amazing. It was also an amazing depiction to how he endured the hardships of the Japanese occupation and the whole movie is moving all through itself. Most scenes escalated quickly despite the movie being that long. I guess the real movie was supposedly 6 hours and it would've explained more about the movie. The actors were all famous and the portrayed their roles perfectly well. The religious influence is inspirational and the movie is something you should watch when you really want to know more about the history of this religion. Great production design by the way.
