Rizal is a history-based film that narrates the life of Rizal, as well as the bitter strife of the Filipino during

As the movie began, Rizal was writing about the struggles of the Spanish rule over the Filipino.
Crisostomo Ibarra, the protagonist of Rizal's novel Noli Me Tangere, Rizal's alter ego, is introduced as the
film begins. Some of the horrific Spanish deeds in his book, such as the scenario in which a Filipina is
sexually assaulted by a friar or in which a kid is abused, were shown and came to symbolize the same
violence that Rizal had truly [Link] of his anti-government actions, José Rizal is imprisoned
at Fort Santiago. By tearing their cédulas as a symbol of freedom from Spanish slavery, Andrés Bonifacio
and his fellow secret organization, the Katipunan, launch the revolt against the dictatorship established
by the Spaniards in a small Balintawak field. Then, a first lieutenant of the Artillery named Luis Taviel de

Audiencia, the colonial court of appeal, to hear the case against him after Christmas. Soon after, on the

A really informative and informative film, Jose Rizal. The plot, to start with, presents the story in a really
original way. Never really does the plot go off course. It was exceptionally well done in the manner it
maintained continuity all the way through. This continuity was particularly apparent in the parts where
Rizal's novels Noli Me Tangere and El Filibusterismo tied some real-world events to [Link] story was
impressive from a cinematic perspective. It transports viewers to that time and recreates the
environment of Rizals' time through acting, sounds, music, and production. Every phrase in the script is a
memorable quote since it is so poetic. It never started to contradict with the setting of the [Link]
and Taviel's conversation was remarkable. Every phrase was metaphorical and powerful. For example,
onceTaviel said, "Noon pa man ay mahilig ka nang bumangga sa pader (Even then, you always like to hit
a wall)" and then Rizal replied, "Lalo na kung and pader ay di nagsasabi ng katotohanan (Especially when
the wall does not speak the truth).". The weakness of the movie is bringng up Jose Rizal in a sensual
scene that gives negative impression towards him, especially to young [Link] may have actually

Filipinos even they are in Spain especially Rizal on how they find a way to fight against colonizers in a
secretly but strong way.
The movie will show how did Rizal comes up with his novels, This will give them the clear picture of
Rizal’s motivation and inspiration in writing this novels .I enjoy the film and can suggest it to anyone who
are interested in world history; I really like how it connects and reflects the novels to his life. The movie
is fantastic, but due to the violence, sexual situations, uncertainty of the presentation due to editing
(flashbacks) it may be a bit confusing to those audience who does not know his novels, also
the languages, and sensitivity of the plot, it is not suitable for [Link], Jose Rizal was an
excellent and meaningful movie. It inspire audiences with a sense of patriotism.
